Auntie Anxiety

Mrsjumbo, I'm hoping this link will give you the information you are looking for with regard to Kathy Lee and Honda. If the link doesn't work, the article is in today's NY Post in Page Six. http://pge.sx/2yrIvkM

Not to mention the fact that Barbara foots the whole tuition bill, doesn't need a dime in financial aid. Just that, in and of itself, puts that kid at an advantage at the Admissions Office.

The sharks probably didn't understand the concept of the water additive because they haven't made coffee for themselves in decades. I'm the last living human who uses a stove top percolator every morning and, although I am by no means a coffee aficionado, I like my ONE daily mug of caffeine to be good. That being said, I use bottled water and I have no complaints. Speaking of bottled water, I was surprised to hear from a friend undergoing a bone marrow transplant that there are only two brands of bottled water that her doctors recommended (cleaner, with less bacteria), Evian and Fiji. I'll stick with the store brand, thank you. Last woman was obnoxious. Fidget spinners are already passé. I can buy one at the local hardware store for $1. Those rings looked like something you could buy for 25 cents from those machines outside the grocery store.

I would have been more gleeful about Sir Richard throwing cold water at Cuban but it felt to me like something the producers planned in advance. The airport app was so uninspired. My mother taught me that if you have a mouth, you can ask for help. I don't travel a lot, but if I'm in an airport and want some pizza, I can ask a person who actually works at the airport if there is a pizza place in the near vicinity. What I think I dislike most after all these many years of watching this show, is when someone thinks they are entitled to a deal because of all their hard work, the effort, the time and money they put into their idea. I was basically a stay-at-home mother. I did a great job raising my kids, lots of blood, sweat, tears, money, etc. No one is giving me a million dollar deal, no one is telling me what a wonderful job I did (my kids are all productive members of society), and I don't expect a trophy. It's a hard job and I loved every minute of it. I'm not entitled to anything. I am also not a big fan of companies giving MY money to charity. You want to dig wells for third world countries? That's great. No one is stopping you from donating to the cause. But don't raise your price to the consumer so that you can donate (the consumer's) money and get to use it as a tax write-off. To me, it's a bait and switch. I think it's a b.s. way of making business owners feel good about themselves because they find capitalism a little dirty. Folks, it's okay to want to make money! Had to agree with Cuban's assessment of the meditation app. It was clear to me that she just wanted a commercial for her product. That being said, he didn't have to be such a tool about it. Gold-digger is the wrong word. She was an opportunist.

Cameron pregnant? No, no, no. She's the type to leave the car seat on the roof and drive away, just like she did with her box o' stuff. A baby would only work if Joe were the primary caregiver. Cam lives too much in her head and can be very selfish (not criticizing, but her own needs have always come before anyone else's....that's just her). You can't tell a baby to wait two minutes (which ends up being two hours) until you finish your work.

Maybe Hayley will end up being the kid that Joe never had. She'll need a father figure. I've stuck with this show since the beginning even though a lot if the computer stuff sailed right over my head, and I am glad I did. I think the characters are so much more interesting than a lot of the predictable arcs you get in many shows. I also kind of love the Cam-Joe dynamic. He's evolved along the way and he seems to understand what she needs. Will miss Gordon. And I like seeing Donna come back to earth.

Great critique of her show today at thedailycaller.com. And I read elsewhere that Edie Falco backed out of her interview scheduled for today at the last minute, probably because Edie had already seen enough of Me-again's idiotic show and didn't want to be associated with it. Thus, the only guest today was a dog who sniffed out electronic devices. Total fail.

Well, a few days ago she stated that she was born to do a show like this. I guess she wasn't. On Fox, she morphed from serious newswoman who asked smart questions into a cutesie pie idiot who thought she was exuding personality when really she was just being obnoxiously narcissistic and phony, thus her new nickname, Me-again. You can tell that she is just so taken with HERSELF! And the only reason anyone would wear the ridiculous pants that she wore the other day (with the ruffles on the pant hems....yuck! something a 6 yo would wear) was to prove just how sweet and nice and approachable she is. She had big ratings on Fox because she wore figure hugging clothing that the male audience tuned in to see.

Megan Kelly's problem, well, one of them anyway, is that her attempts at trying to be genuine are just so fake.

Such a vile bunch of pod people. They will stop at nothing.

Cora's story might not be finished but I am. Way too many good shows to watch on Netflix, Amazon, etc. to waste ,y time on Crapfest Season 2. Like you, Brookside, I bought the hype. Shame on me. I should know better.

Yeah, I know it gets complicated and I knew it when I posted the comment. Just in my own mind, I make a distinction between religions and cults. I also make a distinction between people who are willing to admit that they don't buy all of a religion's tenets and those who refuse to even acknowledge that their cult doesn't think gays or lesbians deserve to exist and that that person is to "blame" for having certain sexual preferences. Just my opinion. From watching the program and the testimonials, apparently when you're knee deep in it, you don't think about all the nastiness. Nice to see that members have epiphanies and begin to question the lunacy.

One would think that the actors who support gay marriage, LGBT causes, etc. would refuse to work with other actors who are in the Co$. Unfortunately, many actors have little self-awareness about how hypocritical they are (Question: How many climate change activitist actors took private jets to the fund-raising event for Hurricane Harvey or scream about global warming while on the air-conditioned red carpet?). If other actors would boycott or blacklist, it would shine a bright light on this crazy cult.

TheGreenWave, if you read the above article that I referred to, you'd see yet another Co$ survivor who still has trouble shutting those thoughts down. She writes in her memoir that when whenever she hurts herself (by accident), she reverts to the Co$ "blame-responsibility" brain-washing. She knows it's crazy but...... I think it's probably like an adult who realizes that his/her parents were messed up and wants to be different, but in times of stress, falls back on those deeply ingrained patterns.

So who was the blond at that house where JD got killed?

There's an interesting article in today's Daily Mail UK. Here Is the headline: EXCLUSIVE: She was Scientology royalty - served as L Ron Hubbard's 'Commodore Messenger' - but Janis Grady tells how an excoriating rant by leader David Miscavige over lack of preparation for a visit from Tom Cruise made her flee the church Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4817386/Janis-Grady-Scientology-royalty-reveals-fled.html#ixzz4tRAJTd6I

I was laughing to myself about the possibilty that JD got a tick bite in the woods while helping Dr. Father with burying Phoebe. Then he developed Lyme disease. Divine almost justice!

So did John Travolta not read the part in the Co$ screed about gays being less than primordial ooze? Apparently he'll do anything to deny his sexual tendencies to himself, including embracing the crap that Scientology spews. Incredible self-loathing. Katie Holmes may never write a tell-all and even though she isn't a great actress (although I did love her in Dawson's Creek.....what was that? Like a thousand years ago?), she was smart enough to keep Suri safe from those monster cabbages. Paul Haggis is such a credible witness. I didn't really know how accomplished he is until last night's episode.

Had to chuckle about how it's your own fault and your own shortcomings to finally realize that Scientology's rules are absurd contrivances. The perfect Catch 22.

I have a vague recollection of that disgruntled/sexually harassed female worker who also got the same sort of treatment from members of the club, or maybe I'm just imagining this. In any event, I'm preparing myself for a very unsatisfying finale. Too many questions, too many possibilities, too many red herrings, to many scenes that may or may not have happened (which is a huge pet peeve of mine and why I stopped watching Mr. Robot). This feels like one of those shows that asks the viewer to draw his/her own conclusions at the end.

Why am I still watching this stupid show? Stupid and boring is a bad combination. And to make matters even worse, my DVR shut off before it ended so I don't even know how the episode ended. And I'm not really sure that I care.

Wee David Miscaviage and his out-sized ego, suffering from Little Man's Syndrome and trying to compensate by being the Co$ overlord really needs to get taken down. I was glad when Leah called the whole thing a cult because it is. It was painful to watch both guys talk about how their souls were sucked out of their bodies and how much they've come to regret all those years lost to such insanity.

Even while watching it, I was thinking "Well, that scene didn't move the plot forward. And neither did that scene." I've learned to DVR this show because the commercials drive me crazy and nothing happens until the last two minutes.

I said the same thing after the first episode. I had never seen that actor before but someone posted that he was in Girls, which I would never watch even if it were the only show in the universe for numerous reasons (I'm not the target demographic, Lena Dunham annoys the hell out of me, females in their late twenties are grown ass adults,not girls!, to name a few).

I was thinking the same thing but how in the world would they convince everyone in that room to keep his execution secret? There probably wouldn't be many Northerners visiting Kings Landing to begin with and if there were rumors, they would be contradicted the minute Lord Baelish 2.0 shows up on the scene. Person in KL: I heard you were dead. Arya/Lord Baelish: Well, I'm here, aren't I? (Spoken in Littlefinger's pompous tone)
