I have said this before, and I will say it again. There are no originial ideas.

Especially that one!!

[leagleaze]

Some folks who haven't been around for a while (and are not registered on this board) are apparently getting word about breasticle day.

If people contact you and ask how they can become involved this is what they need to do.

1. They need to register on this site.
2. They need to email me at either leagleaze@hotmail.com or info@lawtalkers.com (or send me a pm.)
3. They need to get someone to verify they are who they say they are (so if when they ask you send me an email or something letting me know they are going to be signing up would help.)

A few days before breasticle day I will create a new board which will be able to be accessed by a very limited number of people (we've already discussed how I will be choosing people.) I've begun the process of making the list with the help of the other admins already. If you are operating under a different name and haven't posted much, and I or other Admins haven't affirmatively shown you we have a clue who you are, please get in touch with one of us.)

This feels a bit like a popularity contest and I am sorry for that. But this just isn't something I can leave open to everyone. For the most part though, if you have been posting a good bit on the Fashionista board since this one opened up, and people have been able to get a general sense of you, I'll include you in the list.

In fact in my first run of creating a list I went almost entirely by post number on this board, with a few exceptions for people I know are old folks who just aren't around much any more.

If you plan on participating, i.e. sending in a picture, could you let me know so I can get a sense of how many we will have and figure out how best to set the board up? If you say you are thinking about doing it, but end up not doing it that is ok.

Thanks

No. Louie Anderson is very much alive. That other guy, Ray Combs, I think, committed suicide. (Though, I think suicide is an entirely appropriate response after one hosts the Family Feud.)

Ahh, now we get the qualifiers. There are times I think he can be very funny. I don't always think so, but then again, there is only so much comedic mileage you can get out of obesity and a fucked-up childhood.

Yes, as you would know, paig, if you watched the E! True Hollywood Story on Family Feud, you would know the breakdown (pun intended) on the hosts -

Richard Dawson - egomanic; difficult to work with; left over $ dispute; might have come back briefly later, but damage to relationship with producers was already done

Ray Combs - insecure, with bouts of depression; was fired for poor ratings (they have nver returned to Richard Dawson levels - damn that egomaniac!); killed self while in hospital for depression; bedsheet/closet but not linked to autoerotic asphyxiation (see Michael Hutchins)

Louie Anderson - couldn't improve ratings levels either (damn you, Richard Dawson!); was blackmailed regarding secret homosexual escapade (I believe he tried to pay a guy for some sex act and the guy later took to extortion to keep it out of the press); eventually fired

Bottom line - show should have ended when Dawson left (damn you, Richard Dawson!)

Bitch, please. You never heard of Louie Anderson?

There was also John Pinette. He was HUGE. I can recall one bit that he did where he got kicked out of an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet. I don't know if he is dead yet. I am pretty sure that he never hosted Family Feud. He did though host some weird over-size glove boxing show that was on at midnight several years ago.

First of all, spoilers, for BB4:


(And I agree that spoilers revealed before a show is aired at all should be noted as super special spoilers, or whatever. I got screwed with the last BB4 super special spoilers.)
















Anyway, I hate to admit it, but I can't miss an episode. I love the strategy, and the way that most of the pairs of exes have reconciled and have some sort of an alliance going. It seems like Jee, Robert and Justin, as long as they get Jun to go along with them when they need it, might make it until the end. I'm surprised that Jun hasn't been a target yet; she's been the biggest turncoat of all and seems to really fancy herself the master strategist. Allison seems that she is a loose cannon who will piss everyone off; she should have just stayed with her alliance and gone against Justin, since Dana obviously has no chance of winning.

Since I've never watched previous Big Brothers, how does the end work? Obviously, once it gets down to two, the jury votes, but at three people is there still a regular HoH competition and the winner just decides who leaves?

Finally, about how old is Erika? She is always acting like she is nearly as old as Jack, but she looks about 30. I think that there will be some bone-jumping there before the end of the show.

so, I am on yahoo Im for the first time in years. and of my entire list, only like two people are online. Did it get upgraded, or is everyone invisible, or is Yahoo IM so 2001?

He should have commited suicide. It would have been a brilliant career move. No offense.

This may be naive, but, why not?

(I'm assuming no one posts pics with their real names tattooed on their breasts, of course.)

Ralphie's shtick got really shrill tiresome by the end. I was so disappointed because I thought he was by far the single funniest person at the beginning.

Every party you ever go to, there is some big fat guy in the corner, swilling on a beer and muching on chips, who will takes pot shots at everyone else around him to anyone who will listen. And often, most of his bitter, nasty rants are amusing.

I watch Ralphie and think - Hey! They gave one of those guys a microphone.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Cancels Tour Due to Health

LOS ANGELES - The Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd canceled the remainder of its co-headline tour with Sammy Hagar (news) because of the health woes of founding lead guitarist Gary Rossington.

Rossington, who underwent successful open-heart surgery in February, had been given permission to head out on the "Party of a Lifetime" tour with Hagar beginning July 19. Lynyrd Skynyrd's own "Vicious Cycle" tour had been set to begin Aug. 23 in Omaha, Neb.
