S10.E21: Reunion Part 2
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
This is very interesting; I had not considered it that way. Thanks for your viewpoint and I'll be watching Part III of the reunion with this in mind. -
S10.E21: Reunion Part 2
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I know this is a misquote. What you accomplish cannot be taken away from you but a career has a shelf-life. I used to be an officer in the United States Air Force. I retired. I can't say I'm still on active duty. Carole used to be a producer and she was a writer. She isn't either these days. I see the difference. -
S10.E21: Reunion Part 2
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
Carole is so anxious to refute anything Bethenny has ever said, she is now insulting her friends and Andy and is modifying the context (as lezlers mentioned above) of conversations to get her digs in. Too bad she is making a complete ass of herself. -
Bethenny Frankel: Skinny Girl
albarino replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I'm glad Bethenny is coming back; I find her entertaining. It will be fun to watch her interactions with Doris next season. Ramona and Sonja were holding hands at the preview clip of Part III so I think Doris is the last remaining Scream Team member. -
S10.E21: Reunion Part 2

Did you watch the reunion, Part I? B couldn't get a word in edgewise. Andy had to scream to the Scream Team. B is smug because the Scream Team (love the name BTW) decided they were going to go for it. TPTB (Andy) wasn't having it. If I knew the reunion would be 4 against 1 (Sonja doesn't count) and I survived, I'd be a bit smug too. Oh, and smug is the exact emotion that would drive the Scream Team off the edge. And it worked. Carole had it coming. -

Martini Girl wrote this but the "quote this" didn't pop up. When I read the post I went over to check out the preview clip. Hmmm. What will be interesting to see in the reunion Part III is how Ramona and Dorinda act. I think it has been said these reunions last all day and I wonder if the Scream Team (minus Carole) realize they backed the wrong horse during the course of filming. Everybody screamed over Bethenny in Part I and Carole kept up the bitch act in Part II. "Excuse me, are you going to continue bullying me, Bethenny?" At some point, B realizes it was better for Carole to just speak her mind because she is making the hole she is in much deeper each time she opens her mouth. Tins is insulted in the preview clip and I wonder if Ramona and Doris start getting a little more reasonable, as in not telling Sonja to shut up, ending an argument with you have fake tits, etc. We'll see if they can read the room. -

We may or may not agree on the boards but you have my complete compassion. The life care plan for my 82 YO dad is to move in with me in April. :( Just hard. -

And I would love to work for her. After a government life of wringing hands, I appreciate a clear direction. B (or staff) please PM me? -

Raise hands? Who doesn't have body image issues?!? Tongue in cheek only. a different message boardI'm on lets us put sarcastic comments in pink. -
S10.E21: Reunion Part 2
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I am going to beg to differ. I took it as listing things that take up a lot of time and therefore the explanation that Carole has more in common with Tins because she doesn't have those time commitments either. No husband? Not an insult. I'm sure she could have remarried if she wanted to. No children? Also not an insult. Women make these choices every day. I'm sure she could have had/adopted if she wanted to. No career? Also not an insult. She used to have one; I did as well but I retired so I no longer have a career. I would characterize her odds and ends writing assignments as hobbies at this point. My two cents only. -

I now live in Colorado; there are lots of bison cuts of meat in supermarkets. Bison tastes a lot like beef but it is supposed to be a much healthier alternative. I'm not a nutritionist but I choose bison over beef if given the alternative. As an off topic aside, the stores also carry ground elk. I had to get that just because I could. Delicious. -

That isn't the way I see it. My theory (and bear with me as I repeat myself) is Carole was angry Bethenny called Adam (without her permission!) to ask him to go to Houston. He didn't go and B then referred to him as an operator. Carole has been mad as hell about it. -

1. Is there any reason we believe the link? 2. If true, wouldn't Carole have known this? If so, she was asking to get gone. 3. The show's biggest scumbag? We'll agree to differ. I think the show's biggest scumbag just got fired. -

I couldn't figure out what they were arguing about. I don't care all that much so there is that. I really dislike Vicky and Tamra and the latest episode did nothing to change my mind. Next week looks promising...... -

This is quite funny. Well done! Love the true appreciation for the arts.....yep, smoking because Amelia smoked..... -
S10.E20: Reunion Part 1
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
Absolutely!!!! In the preview for next week, Andy says you both have had words for each other (paraphrasing) and that is when Carole blows up. I think we saw some of that on camera but she was vicious in her blogs. All over Bethenny calling Adam an operator. How about really quitting smoking and really training for the NYC marathon? She now has the time. Adam seeking her out at the end of the season? OPERATOR. Oh, and your eyes and face looked really off at the reunion, part 1. Dorinda, you are a drunk. We've all seen this. You control your behavior so if you aren't a drunk, go a season without slurring your words. I really don't care if Sonja is a raging drunk off-camera (well, I sorta hope she isn't) but you control this. Just own it. Lordy, the dream team is quite off for part 1. -
S10.E20: Reunion Part 1
albarino replied to OnceSane's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
My take is Kelley started the fight with the "I'm up here and you're down there." Regardless, the Reunion Part 1 was a complete shit show. They couldn't even let Bethenny appreciate their support for her charity efforts without jumping in. Shit show. -

What part of religion may not be a part of this situation do you not understand? If religion isn't the issue, the sin isn't the reason, n'est pas? Could be a legal issue, no? -
Bethenny Frankel: Skinny Girl
albarino replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
I read she was Episcopalian (he was Catholic). The point was that people don't divorce for all sorts of reasons. Religion may be one of them. Spencer and Katherine had a 26 year relationship while he was legally married hence my reference to him. -
Bethenny Frankel: Skinny Girl
albarino replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
but wasn't divorced wasn't trying to get a divorce didn't file for divorce.....he dated Beth for how many years and is still married no divorce proceeding had been started at the time of his death so he is and was a married man (who's wife just said he was the love of her life so apparently he was having his cake and eating it too) Please reference Spencer Tracey. -
S13.E04: Judge, Jury and Gina
albarino replied to Taralightner's topic in The Real Housewives Of Orange County
You are completely correct. I bake or grill salmon and never thought to add cream cheese. This morning I thought about bagels and lox and went: DUH. WRT Gina, my husband and I spent about 3 years living apart due to jobs (he was in LA and I was in VA). I would telework about once a quarter in LA and we face timed almost every night. The big BUT is that our only child was long gone (in graduate school) and we were both in the Air Force back in the day so we were pretty independent. If I had three little kids and my husband moved me out to CA and then he left for an apt somewhere near his job, I'd be back in LI. -

I am more and more indifferent to this franchise. Vicki declaring herself the sandbox mayor and she gets to decide who plays there? No. She is a complete idiot and if Bravo keeps employing her, that is completely their choice. My choice is OC will go the way of Atlanta and New Jersey. Not going to watch it. Shannon and her food line? I wish her very well. Salmon with cream cheese? Please, no. I don't think fish go well with cheese (and I know cream cheese is more cream than cheese) but I also need to think about salmon and cream. Hmmm. I don't think salmon even goes with hollandaise let alone cream. I am intrigued enough to perhaps buying a meal. I am very much feeling for Eddie. Getting my heart rate up is my stress relief via swimming, biking and running. He said he may take more meds to keep his heart rate down so I'm hoping he finds new outlets. Yoga, perhaps? Tai Chi? I don't do either but I feel for him.Tamra's accident was an accident but she needs to start thinking. For real. -
