I listened to the Lawson Bates song. That's the first time I've ever heard him sing. He does okay, but doesn't have a very strong voice. I guess we know why he hooked up with a girl who has show business contacts. He wants to be famous. I wonder how he would react if he ended up in Aunt Cade's situation, sitting in the background of his famous wife.

Wow, you're optimistic.

Now there's an oxymoron for you.

They're also popular in the boating community of SoFla. I have a lobster shirt, too. I'll go back to my corner now and be ashamed. 😐

This may be a dumb question, but what do you do with the leftover parts when you cut the cute shapes? Does that all go to waste?

I'm sure Coco Chanel would have thought that was very chic. 🙄

Claire looked beautiful, too. I really loved her hair.

Several weeks ago one of their "sweet friends" did take the girls to buy shoes. I wonder what happened to them? They were probably exchanged to get the "best mama ever" a few extra pairs for herself.

Yes she does. Didn't the Duggar kids also used to ride their bikes inside the TTH?

Yes, but Justin got the better deal since his FIL actually has marketable construction skills. I'm hoping he is really educated and licensed and didn't just watch a contractor for 1/2 hour. Poor Ben will walk away with no skills at all.

Thanks for clarifying. I would have NEVER known!! 😉

You know what? You're right. I was so busy laughing at the story that I never stopped to apply logic. Maybe Jilly could have the kids do this as a school project. You know, fundie science class.

That's exactly what I think is happening. Not sure if Ericka is in on it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

A few years ago, Nurie and David went on a mission to southern Africa (I can't remember which country) to convert them to the correct Jesus. While he was gone, Satan was up to his tricks, causing Jilly all kinds of SEVERE problems such as cutting her finger while opening a can of green beans. Also, right around that time she shared a story about people who sent a microphone into some deep hole and hearing the sounds of hell. She also said that when the mic was retrieved, a small demon was holding onto the wire. According to Jilly this was a serious news story and absolute gospel truth. Somehow on the boards the little demon sort of was blamed for cutting Jilly's finger (SEVERELY) with the green bean can. It was a funny story and I remember one poster did a great drawing of the green bean demon. I wish I could post it because I loved it. Anyway, I now realize I've been reading these boards for a long time and probably remember more info from here than my job. Maybe I need to get a life or maybe I can blame a green bean demon for my shortcomings.

I think that's Sam. I've always thought he looked a lot like young Anthony Perkins. I think he's the most handsome of the boys.

I believe Teresa was raised to never question her husband. I think it's a part of their culture for the wife to be submissive in that way. So, I can believe she would trust him and figure that whatever happened, even if she knew it was wrong, he would take care of it. Now Ericka had lived life before Tom. She was married, lived on her own, went to college, and was trying to get famous. She's a lot of things, but dumb is not one of them. I can believe it in the beginning she would trust Tom and his reputation, but I do believe she knew as time went on. I know 30 is not old, but I think she was old enough to know quite a bit and I think she was much more aware than Teresa. YMMV

Even Danielle Staub looks like a better person than Ericka by comparison. My goodness. I thought I hated her before. That documentary was just disgusting. And yes, Tom is a complete snake. He's been using client's money for decades. Apparently, the Alzheimer's set in way back then, but of course only selectively. What garbage those two are.

Now we know why Satan was hiding in the green bean can. He just wanted to invite Jill to a demonic party. 😈

Isn't that Bible Bee event about memorizing large chucks of the bible?

I hope the Rod boys get to play softball with the team.

Just have to say thanks @Zella for turning me on to Sturgill Simpson. You see, the Duggars are good for something after all!! 😃

I was pretty much joking, but if Boob thought it would bring him more TLC money and fame, I could see him doing it. He's never cared about the needs of his children of his love of money.

Where is that vomit emoji when you really need it?

Boob could get her divorced from Josh and have her marry one of the other Duggars. It worked with Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon, but not really well. Anyway I can't see TLC being able to pass that kind of insanity up.

Please don't drag my talented, sweet, sexy Robin Gibb into this nightmare.
