Kate accepts free ipad
The nerve. Instead of suggesting her fans donate to charity, Kate, who drives three cars including an Audi sportscar and just spent a few days in Los Angeles and at the Emmys, is still accepting freebies from fans. She tweeted today thanking a fan for the pricey gift (ipads start at $499 on apple.com), and the fan tweeted back that four more are on the way. Is there a GREED app?

312 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 312 Newer› Newest»Not sure how Kate will ever divide four ipads among eight kids. She will either keep grifting until she gets eight, or just keep them all for herself with the excuse that it prevents fights.
If a fan has more than two grand to throw around on ipads you would think they would have a little more smarts than to give it to Kate. Come on.
Carrying over the food discussion here, but I never remember food being an "issue" growing up. Granted it helped my mom was an excellent cook. If you're a good cook a lot of foods that might seem disgusting when done poorly are a lot better. I just never remember any fights or tears. My sibling didn't like salads, some kids don't, my mom would give them the salad toppings without the salad leafs--the carrots, cucumbers, we would eat those. I didn't like lima beans and a few other things, I was never made to eat them. I still don't like lima beans and I don't choose to eat them. I will never understand if you are an adult and dont like something you dont have to eat it, so why exactly are we forcing children to??? If they don't like lima beans who cares, there are a hundred other healthy foods to offer them.
Food just wasn't a BIG DEAL growing up. Food was sort of something fun, something new to try was fun, helping dad with the grill or mom bake was fun, gathering around the table for a meal was good family time. I didn't really hear much about you should eat this and not eat this--healthy options were just always there and we just sort of took them. I can't really explain how this happened other than to say no one was making a big deal and it JUST HAPPENED.
I just feel like this was a healthy way to handle food, just keep things relaxed and low key, and none of my siblings have food issues. To give a food analogy, the proof is in the pudding.
Carrying over the Kate is stupid discussion, but what is wrong with her??! Bragging about this donation???
I'm sure some of her sheep are way more deserving of one ipad, not to mention five. I think it would be wonderful for every family to have an ipad. I would like an ipad, I could go out and buy an ipad, but I can't justify the expense. I have a perfectly good iphone and laptop, I'm going to throw an extra $500 bucks on an ipad too? I'm sure most Americans have made the same call that an ipad is a want not a need and passed.
Kate's so darn annoying. No sheep, it's not jealousy. It's Kate being insensitive to the majority of her fan base. And they can pretend all they want they don't care, but the fact is, they can't ever have everything Kate has, and it's mean to rub it in.
I think Kate is playing you all, and you all fall for it. Have fun everyone...I'm out of here and all the Kate shit. So should you all be. Unless you want to keep her still in the spotlight? Pfftt
done.done.done
Peace out!
Did anyone else notice Kate wrote,
"Kate Gosselin
@annbruce47 oh didn't get screen cover- didn't see one at apple store but I will indeed look... Thanks!"
Hmm... I guess the far away friend just paid for the iPad and she picked it up at the Apple Store?
Likely she's been on a shopping spree, but to minimize any wrath against her she says it's from a friend.
Apparently an iPad ordered online comes with free engraving. If a far away friend gave it as a gif,t he/she would likely purchase it online and opt for the free engraving to make it special. I'm not buying it was a gift from a friend.
Also, if she's on antibiotics, what's she doing out shopping? Bacteria is contagious! Most people have to suck it up 'cause most common illnesses are a virus.
According to some Kate may have had work done while in LA. Makes sense that she could be on an antibiotic for that.
She is play'n ya. Nobody sent her anything. Did not happen. She wishes. It's all fake admin.
Oh please anonymous Kate cannot help herself. She is running her mouth with her new toy, she loves it. What she needs to do is shut up about her freebie, but she can't help herself.
How much will these ipads be worth when the kids are going to college? Maybe about ten bucks a pop.
She is getting a bunch of depreciating freebies and it's ridiculous.
If this fan wants to really help the kids, donate 2500 to their college fund.
KH likes parody's of herself and her children. She will hoot and holler when she sees it, and laugh her ass off. Then, her kids will be teased and made fun of for the rest of their lives. KG's motto? Still got paid the big bucks!
Her children will never have a fair chance in life. Nor any real friends. Relationships will be non existent.
Admin, I think it is a set up to rile people up.
Permanent Name said... I just thought of a wickedly evil idea!
Wouldn't it be delicious if kart could get a live interview with some reputable journalist like Matt Lauer and he would blindside her with non-preapproved questions?!!! (You KNOW they all want to see her get some hard questions...)
I'd love to see her answer:
1. How do you think Obama has fulfilled his campaign promises from 2008? And what key features do you think will decide the 2012 election?
2. What are your thoughts on the issue of nuclear power in Iran?
3. How are you, as an American, dealing with this economy? Do you believe we are in a recession or depression? Are you being forced to tighten your belt financially?
4. Are you in favor of genetically modified foods?
5. How would you advise the White House to proceed with the health care crisis in the US today?
6. Do you have any particular bias regarding stem cell research?
7. Can you share with us your thoughts on global warming?
8. What are you doing to reduce your carbon footprint?
9. Can you give us specific examples of how you would improve the school lunch programs by using only organic foods? And how would you maintain the current budget while doing that?
10. Are you in favor of wealth redistribution for those in this country who live at or below the poverty level?
11. What did you think of the latest report by the Fed regarding interest rates?
OH, geez louise - I would PAY to see that interview!!!!
Hey, it would be a legitimate interview and no one could say she was picked on - these are questions every American has thought about in the past few years...
It could be the final titanuium nail in her coffin...... hopefully she'd be carted off incoherant and spitting and Jon could get custody.
Yes, I am mean. But I'd really like to see if she can even understand the words, much less the questions. I expect nothing at all in the way of an answer.
Would she even realize she'd been mocked? Would she even realize she'd been kicked down to the bottom of the ladder?
Would it make her head back home, head down in shame, on her pink phone making an emergency appointment with a shrink "I need help! Hurry, fix me"
++++++ I brought this over here - tried to post in last thread but blogger is giving me fits. Hope this doesn't show up twice... apologies if it does.
Some days blogger gets my nasty vote....... arrgghhh
iPads don't pay the mortgage and no one wants her on TV.
Kate has BIG expenses with that money-sucking house and eight kids in private school among other things. Target gift cards, expired cereal, and even pricey little gadgets won't pay her bills or fix her employment situation, so I hope she enjoys tapping away on her iPad while the money runs out.
To all the anonymouses or the single one of you, whatever:
Even if she is lying to "rile people up," how stupid of her. And how creepy. But mostly stupid: she looks bad for accepting freebies from strangers. So making up a story that makes her look bad is even worse.
I don't have an iPad and likely wouldn't buy one if I had the money. It looks difficult to operate. I prefer having the keyboard level and the monitor adjustable. I don't think I'd like typing on the same surface I view.
Sure, it's like a giant iPhone, but I don't like the iPhone much either. My son has one and I get frustrated by it. We're all technobuffs so it's not like I don't know what I'm doing. It's more of a workable comfort thing.
As for kids and food likes/dislikes, I never forced my worst eater to eat things he didn't like (even before trying them). As a young adult now, he's expanded his food likes at his own pace. He's eating things he wouldn't even smell years ago! A daily multivitamin filled in the gaps back then.
He also commends me on not forcing him to eat. His father (ex) and stepmother did during weekend visits, as did his paternal g-mother. He remembers that very well... especially how bad he felt at the time and how bossy and controlling the perps were.
LOL!!! The proper plural term, I believe, is anonymice.
Sorry, had to say it. A gremlin made me say it....
ROFLOL
Permanent Name, trying again... said...
...Wouldn't it be delicious if kart could get a live interview with some reputable journalist like Matt Lauer and he would blindside her with non-preapproved questions?!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Permanent Name, how about adding the Sarah Palin disaster question to the list, too:
"And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world? "
I think I recall Kate saying she didn't read the news.
So glad you put the hilarious Kate plus 8 College Years parody up. Everyone should see it. It's above and beyond the usual YouTube video. Real pros did this one.
This too,
Excellent suggestion for question!
How do you think she'd answer?
"Head tilt, finger to ear, eleven returns to her forehead between her eyes... um... world view, is that like, um, an organic food store?"
"Oh...... cackle.... you mean papers? NO! They get ink all over my fingers.... duh......." Head shake and disdainful frown to purseboy off to the side
I've watched that video a few times and see new stuff each time. It's a hoot! They even have "Kate" in those stupid tabbed shorts with the low and ill fitted top and stilettos. But remarkably, this girl doesn't look that bad because she's not falling out of her clothes and can actually walk like a normal person! Did you see that Cara was drawing and writing RIP on her tablet? Hahaha! They really went with each kid's characteristics and expanded on them. But it's Kate's fault that those characteristics are known at all. My only question is where is Steve? It would have been funny if they had some white haired guy standing in the corner in each shot, with the same colors on as Kate. Oh, loved how all the kids were matchy-matchy too.
Permanent Name said... I just thought of a wickedly evil idea!

------
No, because every interview Kate has done with Matt has been live and he hasn't asked a single hard question. Lots of "journalists" have had the chance to ask Kate the tough questions and haven't.
I'm sure if she gave an ala Palin response about what she doesn't read people like Elisabeth Haselbeck will just stick up for her the same way they did Palin.
Whoops, sorry for back-to-back posts, but meant to say I chuckled today at something I saw. My spin instructor and her toddler were walking to their car and the girl had a lollipop. Kate goes on and on about being organic and I remember even hearing her once say they got organic lollipops. Who cares? It's still PURE SUGAR! So is Juicy Juice! Her 'agreeance' with that word is really just so silly. If she wants organically fed meat and organic fruits and veggies, that's great. But the other stuff she gives them is still loaded with preservatives and sodium and SUGAR. Being organic doesn't mean it's always a good choice!
@lindafoerrester linda foerrester
@lancasterwatch @kateplusmy8 I read your tweets. You are such a good person to do that. I am inclined to do the same thing but not publicly.
Above is one of the first tweets from Kate's alleged far away friend. Apparently "but not publicly" go away from Ms. Foerrester. She'd even tweeted about get-away spots!
What about the old adage, "Don't take candy from strangers"? Sadly, one has to ultimately pay the price for doing so.
Tamara,
You missed my point!
What if someone DID ask her those questions???!!! Someone went renegade and -gasp- asked her something not on her preapproved list....
I agree, everyone has let her slide and I'm sure one of the reasons is that she insists on preapproved questions. I think all 'celebrities' do (you don't know how that gagged me to use that word to describe her)
So....... set it up like usual, THEN SWITCH to the hard questions!!!
It's too damned bad no one has the nerve to do that! Although Joy did call her on one little factoid in their last interview. Hey, show's cancelled, nothing to lose, right Joy?! LOL
I am soooooooooo sick of hearing the plastic parrot: me, me, me, mine, mine, mine, divorce, divorce.....
It sounds like folks in the media are starting to talk honestly about how they dislike her.......
Just one more step, baby. Expose her!!!
Like I said, I would pay to see that interview.
At this rate, Kate can grift herself a free iphone 5 when it finally comes out. How will she be able to tweet her tweeties without the latest and greatest new iphone?! All Kate has to do is complain that she wished her current iphone took better photos then she'd be able to post more pics of the kids; her fans would eat that up. Oh yeah...she already hinted at that on twitter over the summer.
Her millionth pink iphone is probably on its last leg, after all the Kate-abuse it's received.
A few months down the line Kate won't appreciate these new ipads when the ipad3 is released (with supposedly a better display, etc.).
Has anyone noticed that lately Kate has been refering to Mady and Cara as her almost 11 yr olds. Is she reminding her fans that their birthdays are coming up so that they will hopefully send gifts? How many fans have her mailing address now?

...A few months down the line Kate won't appreciate these new ipads when the ipad3 is released (with supposedly a better display, etc.).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm thinking Kate doesn't appreciate the iPad now. She rambled on about how her almost 11 y.o. daughters took it over. (Why aren't they simply 10? Grifting b-day reminder to the masses maybe?)
I don't see Kate as the sharing kind if it comes to something she LIKES/WANTS. She'd routinely separated what was hers from what was theirs.
OMG Grifter's Anonymous, it must be, and it's so obvious! Both you and I posted about it! (Twins upcoming b-day)
Of course she could be using the ipad gift to "reaffirm" herself after the "disaster" at this year's Emmy's. Just very weird that not 1 single random photo has pop up on the internet of her at the show or any of the after parties. This is very telling of how far she has fallen and her bitching about the paps publicly probably got her blacklisted by that group. Even if worms her way into one of the parties, can almost see her as the ugly freak at the prom that nobody wants to talk to or be seen with.
As to the apple products, personally I think they suck and unreliable. My friend just dumped her iphone and switched to Samsung Galaxy, she says she can't handle the drop calls, lack of reception and lost personal files any more after 1 year. And after those 10+ suicides at the Foxconn factories in China before iphone 4 came out, I think that whole brand is cursed. (Also whispers of how Steve Jobs got his new liver so quickly, Foxconn hooked him up with one taken from a political prisoner and it's backfired big time)
FOUL!!
Now Ms. Foerrester is calling it an iPod!
linda foerrester
@kateplusmy8 Kate I am so sorry if I caused you grief with the Ipods I sent. Please know that they were sent with good intentions.
I also love how in the video Mady tells the cameras Kate made Hannah get pregnant, i.e. for ratings, and Kate covers her mouth, move along nothing to see here.
The director for the person who asked is a young Asian-American filmmaker who's had her stuff up on FunnyorDie and big sites like that. She's legit. :)
I think Kate lied about getting the IPad as a gift.
I think she bought it for herself but doesn't want to admit it. She tweeted that she never saw the accesory for it at the APPLE STORE.
JMO
This, too, shall pass away===If she is actually going to receive 4 more iPads from that person who is claiming she sent them, I wouldn't be surprised if she wrapped 2 of them and gave them to the twins as a birthday present from her.
She is really selling the iPad story. Cara's voice squeaked when she saw it, Mady and Cara took it over, the kids are all techies.
She really has zero awareness of how most people live.
Pixie I find nothing suspicious about this. You can order an iPad for the Apple store and pick it up. I sure as heck hope she did that instead of opening packages from sheeple. You can also get an iPad in the mail, then drive to the Apple store in your Audi to buy accessories for it. I don't see how being at the Apple store proves she's lying.
And like someone said, if she's making this all up that's worse!
And once again because it cannot be said enough, would it kill her to say, no please you shouldn't have, please next time donate to your favorite charity!
Grifter's Anonymous ~ Apparently the far away friend is not twitter literate... can't seem to figure out what to do. Or, plays dumb so tweeters can see her generosity in print!
Here's to hoping that having less iPads than the number of Gs will translate to frustration for Kate due to infighting.
I went back and checked the tweets from this person. She said she shipped them to the Heffner Rd address on 8/27. Would it really have taken almost 4 weeks to receive them?
lindafoerrester linda foerrester
@kateplusmy8 would you please message me. I've decided to go ahead and send Ipads to your lovelies. ordering online. Need shipping address

@kateplusmy8 GM Kate. Ipads are on the way. Sent to Heffner Rd. Hope your lovelies enjoy them.

That Linda Foerester (or whatever) is getting hammered on twitter and she's upset. Actually, I would be too, I guess. But she keeps reiterating that Kate needs help. HELP? How do Ipads help Kate??? Like, um, it's strangely ironic that gadgets will help Kate. She's going to need help paying that massive mortgage, huge tuition bills, and payments/insurance/maintenance on 3 cars. But she's happy for the moment, so yay for her.
I hope those ipads aren't really stolen and Kate is accepting stolen merchandise.
And wait for it...guess what the kids are getting for Christmas? She has to out-do Jon, knowing he can never afford such fancy gifts. She'll never tell the kids they were given to her. I hope Jon tells the kids, "Oh nice gifts! Yeah, those were given to your mom by strangers."
You can order an iPad for the Apple store and pick it up.
********************************************
Fair enough. Obviously, I don't know the inner workings of receiving one. You know, being that it's kind of expensive and my friends are too mediocre to buy one for me.

The parody video is funnier and more interesting than anything ever on the actual show.
Someone mentioned the twins are almost 11. Thank goodness no more filming, or otherwise I am sure the cameras would have captured The First Period. I had my first menses at age 11, and so did my two daughters. Welcome to HormoneVille, Ms. kreider! In a few years she will have a houseful of hormonal menstruating adolescent girls. Be afraid, be very afraid! The sweetest best-natured child can turn into a possessed alien in a snap, if the hormones are active. Plus have you ever worked with a bunch of women, or lived in a dorm with a group of women, and noticed everyone gets their period around the same time of the month. The synchronization is weird - but TRUE, it really happens!

@PimpMyKids Glad I can help. Let me know which Apple store is near you and I'll make the arrangements for pickup. You prefer Ipads or Macs?
Regarding the video, if you click on the name Michelle Thorn in the post, it will bring up her biography. Quite impressive. If Kate ever sees that video, I'm sure it'll upset her, only because she wasn't asked to star in it.
PJ's momma said...
But she keeps reiterating that Kate needs help. HELP?
*********************************************
You are right. Kate needs help, but the kind of help she needs isn't going to come from a gadget. It needs to come from counseling, psychiatric help and or a heavy dose of real reality, not edited reality.
I remember this Ipad discussion from the end of August too. And see, the sheeple asked which Apple store to send it to. This is just about the right timeline to order and send an ipad there. The timing is right.
Grifter's Anonymous said...

If the ipads are on back order, yes, and if you order them online, they are being fedex in from China. My boss had to have the ipad-2 to use for making fancy presentations, so he didn't get his for over 6 weeks. Turns out to be a complete waste because he's technically challenged and he still hasn't figure out how to use it. You all think Kate is savvy enough to know how to use it?
Thank God this show is over before the teen years. Forget grifting for diapers, she'll be grifting for Tampax. Talk about embarrassing.
Pixie, no worries. The only reason I know is because I've been essentially saving up for a MacBookPro with my own hard earned money, not off the back of any kids, not a freebie, full price, and I've looked into how to pick it up at the store since I live around the corner from one and it seems safer.
This,too---I saw that. She apparently saw Kate's picture(which Pimp was using at the time)and didn't realize she wasn't tweeting Kate. Also, I think she was surprised that other people could see her tweets.
If Kate had had an fan email address at that time, the whole thing could have been kept private through email. Which now makes me wonder how many other offers she's getting.
IMO, Kate was stupid to tweet about it. Surprised she didn't say she was using it while sitting on her leather couch.
Does anyone see a problem with a sheeple tweeting Kate's street name??? Do they have zero understanding of all the creeps out there? Does anyone have a problem with Kate opening packages from strangers??? Please I hope she at least checks for white powder residue first. Why is it that Kate "haters" worry way more about her safety than anyone who ever claimed to love her?
I still am not sure I believe there is a sheeple out there with the brains to hold down a job enough to afford this. I have to assume this was some kind of lucky inheritance or lottery win.
And okay, even if you think Kate needs an iPad to help her.....how do you figure five of them are needed??? I know she's a freak but does she have five pairs of hands now? The ipads are fine and dandy for the kids for little projects but most teachers are not going to be fond of kids typing out reports on ipads. You'll screw your shoulders up typing up a long report on it.
This whole thing is so out of this world unbelievable, but I have to remember it's Kate.
Sam--thanks for explaining about the shipping time.
As far as Kate knowing or learning how to use it-that could be the reason she went to the Apple store.

Kate relishes in rubbing her fans mediocre-ish-ness in their noses and the fans lap it up never realizing what Kate is doing. Anything for a tweet from Kate.
Are the Ipads taxable? Won't she have to claim the value of the ipads as income and pay taxes on it?
Kate better hope the IRS doesn't find out about all her "gifts".

The sheeple taking credit for sending the IPads tweeted back in Aug. she has a lot of money and her husband is a pro-basketball player.
Kate, listen up.
Teach for America accepts new or gently used iPads. All you have to do is take your iPad to the Apple store.
Please tell your sheeple that instead of sending your four more iPads (you greedy be-atch) donate those four to Teach for America. In case you've never heard of this program, they send the best of the best into low-income areas to teach. They could really use those four extra ipads you DON'T NEED.

Permanent Name, those aren't the kind of questions any journalist or even tabloid hound, should be asking Kate because they just aren't relevant. I would LOVE to see someone go after her on the subjects brought up again and again here. The grifting, narcissism, child abuse, constant lies, food control, gender issues, parental alienation, what happened with Jodi and Kevin, the dangerous speeding, etc. Kate isn't running for office.
Just as TLC needs to take some of the responsibility for those 8 children, so do all the "journalists" who spent the last 5 years (if not longer) not only letting Kate get away with murder (and I REALLY hope that phrase will remain an alliteration) but congragulating her and helping her rake in the cash.
Admin if this has already been posted then please feel free to delete.
Did anyone catch this article from People? http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20530028,00.html.
Modern Family replaced the twins playing the role of Lily because they did not enjoy acting.
"In a nutshell, the girls just wanted to be kids, their mother, Michelle Hiller, tells PEOPLE. "Ella and Jaden are enjoying new toddler adventures in swimming, dance, gymnastics, and rock climbing," says Michelle. "They are happy with the freedom of being 3 [years old]!"
How refreshing to find a mother who puts the well-being of her children ahead of fame and fortune!
OMG Admin., my friend and her husband had the same experience with a giant moose while driving to Montreal several years ago. They have no children so they like to take off and drive around North America and they like to drive late at nite when there's no traffic. It's true, when there's no one else on the road and dark, you really do lose track of how fast you are going. He says he was going at least 90 at one of these back roads and as soon as he turn the bend there was a giant moose standing in the middle of the road not moving. They have a better ending than you, somehow he was able to turn his SUV to swerve around the moose and spun the car several times after that before coming to a final stop. He says he will never drive like that again after that experience because if they hit the moose head on, nobody would have come to their aid until the morning.

Not really. Sheeple aren't the brightest, but I believe that anyone looking for her street number, road, town and zip can google it without much trouble. It's readily available on the internet.
Tamara,
We're in the same book, just not on the same page..... LOL. I understand what you are saying.
True, kart isn't running for office. But I think those kinds of questions ARE relevant for this reason:
kart is, bottom line, no different than the rest of us ** in the sense that ** she is an American during an economic crisis, a divorced woman with kids who is unemployed and underwater on her mortgage, and probably now needs to get the kids and herself some healthcare coverage.
These issues confront all of us every day. She SHOULD know about these things. INSTEAD she is a narcissistic arrogant bitch who can only think of herself, herself and herself.
When she has been asked about the questions you mention, she has pat answers. She knows the questions ahead of time, no doubt she and purseboy rehearse questions and answers, and we've seen her with her little earwig in to get quick info on how to answer questions if she stumbles.
If the questions would be any of those you mentioned (and they ARE valid questions) all she would do is lie. She lies. Waste of our time.
If she were to be asked about, say improving school lunches with organic food, or nuclear power in middle east, or the Fed interest rates, she can't LIE, she has to come up with an answer that is credible and share her opinion.
She can't do that. She'd look like a stupid idiot. Which she is. She has no opinion that doesn't revolve around her.
She wants a career on TV. She doesn't have the brains for it, among other things. We here know that. An interview where she was asked only current events questions would show her to be as unqualified as we know she is.
I guess my point is that I would love
to see someone question her and NOT ask ANYTHING about her... I'd love see her stumble when confronted with questions SHE didn't give the interviewer to ask.
I'm confident that her brain doesn't even comprehend there is a world beyond kart, ergo she is not qualified to be on TV.
She has been using these interviews for her own purposes from the beginning. I'd love to see someone put her in her place by asking her to discuss ANYTHING, ANYTHING except herself, her 8, her mansion, her cars......... anything but her.
She could shop that tape around Hollywood and New York for jobs.... ha......

I read the tweets every so often and I have seen the G address twice now, but it wasn't a sheeple who'd disclosed it.
Certainly anyone with Google knowledge could search for the address, but flat out putting it into tweet seems inappropriate. Those who really want it/need it can go through proper channels to get it. I doubt Kate even cares though. She probable views it as a way to get more stuff.

Sherri Shepherd thinks the world is flat, clearly doesn't have the brains for it, either, but she's still co-hosting The View, and for the life of me, I can't understand why. It seems that having brains really isn't necessary for having a career in the television industry. Anything goes.
Sort of 'funny-scary' story - our son was vacationing in Montana and on the last day they were driving out of the resort, long road out, far out from buildings and a deer ran out in front of them hitting the driver side door.
Of course they were shocked, and in quickly looking back they saw...... "the deer's head rolling down the road behind them".....
Sick at their stomachs and very shook up, they pulled over and went back, very slowly, and saw.....THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR in the middle of the road. In the dusk, they initially mistook it for something macabre.
Apparently the deer hit a glancing blow to the side, knocked off the mirror, got up and ran back into the woods from where it came.
In the moment, in their shock and horror, it didn't register that there wasn't a headless deer beside the car, or that there wasn't a deer at all. In fact, she said they all looked at the side view mirror for a moment before recognizing what it was.
Our DIL said it happened in a split second, they were only going 30 MPH because it was dusk and on a windy road.
They still get chills when thinking about it and what their first thought was. Hopefully the deer was just bruised. The other option is too sad to think about.
It all happened in a split second.
Rental car, slight dent. Insurance covered it.
It almost sounds to me like the ipad donor isn't quite up to speed on Kate. She seems surprised at the outrage. If she were a diehard sheeple she would know full well that the outrage was inevitable over this. I hope she will consider donating the four remaining to Teach for America, maybe someone could nicely tweet her the info. It's not hard, go to the Apple store and turn them over!
I understand Kate's address is out there but I don't understand tweeting it and making it easy for anyone to get it. Especially from people who are supposed to be her fans who know how hated she is and have spent years defending her. I don't put her address in bold and underline at the top of this blog just because it's out there.
To me it just shows a lack of judgment. Especially a wife of a professional basketball player, they can be somewhat high profile to varying degrees.
Anyway I think my point is it goes back to stupidity and lack of awareness, qualities both Kate and her followers seem to have.
Does Kate have to pay tax on gifts? And, sorry for my ignorance but, what exactly is an ipad? And don't you have to use the internet with it?
Kirkland said...
Are the Ipads taxable? Won't she have to claim the value of the ipads as income and pay taxes on it?
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Kirkland, probably not. Taxes in this kind of freebie land are VERY dicey though and she needs to be darn careful. If it's a gift with nothing in return, she won't have to pay taxes. It sounds like this ipad was a (stupid) gift for (stupidly) nothing in return. (WHYY?) But in any case, no tax. And this isn't enough for the donor to have to pay a gift tax.
Where Kate should really make sure she dotted her i's is all the freebies from other sources. It has to be a "true gift." You can't avoid taxes by calling something a gift when it isn't. A "gift" you receive in exchange for services or some other consideration isn't a gift.
This is why I firmly believe that the IRS is going to consider almost ANYTHING TLC ever gave her, including the trips, including the hair, including the nails, including whatever car, whatever, TAXABLE INCOME.
She was clearly, without a doubt, doing something for TLC in exchange for all those "gifts." It's taxable income. Would TLC have given her all that stuff if she didn't have a show and wasn't working for them? Of course not. Then put it on your taxes.
I'm actually kind of surprised we haven't heard of any tax problems yet with her, that's coming next. Come on this is Kate why would she think tax laws are any different than all the other laws that don't apply to her?
It'll be speeding tickets one month and tax audits the next, it's coming.
LOL still catching up on DWTS....Brooke is still an idiot....hey Brooke, you need to hold the microphone to someone's face so we can hear.
Permanent Name, we should publish a book together, each writing every other chapter :) You are thinking big picture with Kate, which is admirable. I can't manage it just because her life and world (and mind and heart hee hee) are so small. I doubt she could tell you WHY Sarah a Palin even had a TV program for her to do a crossover with.
It is such a wasye that no interviewer has truly stuck to those tough questions, confronting her with her own past lies, and making her go beyond her little memorized answers. I wonder if she will ever be desperate enough for attention to do a hard hitting interview? Or if she will ever be relevant enough again for someone to want to interview her beyond fluff and filler?
Here's hoping not. Because if that day comes it will be most likely following either a death or serious injury.
no mo worryin bout me said...And, sorry for my ignorance but, what exactly is an ipad? And don't you have to use the internet with it?
http://www.apple.com/ipad/
Yes, you would need an internet connection to download apps from itunes, surf the web, etc. However, after installing some apps, they can work without an internet connection.
There's not much you can do on an ipad without an internet connection other than gaming/typing. I was going to say well the twins can play Angry Birds but you constantly have to download levels. You can run it off wireless or let's hope Kate doesn't spend even more of the kids' money paying for five data plans. Waste of money. This ipad is a want not a need, and there are thousands of needy schools who could use them a lot more.
OMG, Permanent!
How frightening for your son & DNL.
Ya'll are scaring the crud out of me.
Old tweet from several days ago but I missed the last part of it:
Kateplusmy8Kate Gosselin
@MiloandJack yeah- no help today.. An assistant is a dream... Bsitter grandfather died:(
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Do I even need to ask, is she upset for her babysitter (nanny Kate, NANNY. Show her some respect!) that her grandfather died, or is she upset her babysitter can't come in today and take the kids' off Kate's hands? I cant tell.
Brooke: You were shaking last night were you nervous?
No Brooke I have epilepsy.
Good grief. She's funny though I used to love recapping her nonsense.
Her kids are being raised part Amish, but they just don't know it yet. No TV, no Internet, no interactions with other adults or children. What do the teachers at the school think about all this? Can you imagine? Or the soccer Moms at the bus stop?
Oh those poor kids. That are poor in so many ways, and it has nothing to do with money.
Will they be joining CA, to live in another country someday, where they can possible have any kind of life?
I would never let my child go to the private school where the G8 attend. How bad is this place? The children appear way behind on their advancement level, and the Headmaster should have spoken up to the parents, or expelled them all for good, since it was on purpose.
At least there is some respect for the Gypsy's. They at least hide their grifting and scams to the outside world. KG had no pride, and no shame.
oh FU kate. really..taking gifts from strangers. your babies aren't newborns home from the hospital that need formula. stop the damn grifting already. why whould she DM her address to someone for a gift? does she really have no shame? this bitch knows she has enough money to buy her own damn ipads if she wants them. STOP PLAYING POOR. why couldn't kate DM an address to a local shelter to the woman who has $2500 to blow on gifts?
i really truly hope if kate is ever interviewd again the interview does some research and reads kate's twitter account first and find out what a nutjob she is.
emailing her address? taking gifts from stangers? good thing they werent bombs kate. not to be dramatic but if kate is soooo scared for her safety then...get a clue!
personally i think the karma train is heading right towards kate. this was her test to be a decent person. to admit she no longer needs donations. to let her sheeple know that even though money will be tighter her and her children are just fine and dont need things mailed to her.
i hope this is a karma test that she failed miserably. keep it up kate and soon you WILL be relying on donations again to survive. things come full circle you know.
grifting bitch

I got my son an IPad for his birthday and am exchanging it for a laptop today. They are primarily for heavy social networking use i.e. facebook, twitter, blogging, ebay, email, video callng (tango), surfing, etc. I am exchanging his because every time he picks it up he checks his facebook and I have never encouraged him to be that active on there as a teen. They are also fun gadgets - lights, etc. If he has a laptop, he goes to sketchy physics and lego universe.
Khate is addicted to freebies and her fans know it. That person has now successfully inserted herself soundly into not only Khate's life but the kids as well.
Have any tweeties asking Khate how she managed to go the Emmys without one Pap in Hollywood but can't go to Target in PA?
I hope Kate only installs educational apps on the iPads. The 6 really need to get up to speed in school and this might help. But, if she puts wireless on it, she's in trouble, the kids could download almost anything and surf to anywhere! I'm sure Kate won't figure this out and also won't be able to figure out parental controls either. So worried that the twins will see/hear more about their mom on the web.
Admin said...
And once again because it cannot be said enough, would it kill her to say, no please you shouldn't have, please next time donate to your favorite charity!
-------------------------
If this is true, & she accepted i-pads, then she she is truly the world's worst person. She doesn't need them.
Second, she should have had that money donated to charity, because, well, she doesn't NEED THEM! I hope the IRS is watching this bitch. She needs to pay a certain fee, right? On gifts worth a certain amount? She has been, or rather, thinks she's been, smooth with all these gifts & trips & stuff like that. But receiving these? What if they are stolen property? She really does not think at all? I bet they are. I bet they're stolen property.
Kate, you frigin dumbass. I hope the IRS comes knocking. You OWE them some time.
OT, but I just read a great book called the "Recluse on Mill River" (or something. I don't have it w/ me) on my Nook. It was .99 cents. Really good message about giving & kindness. Kate could learn something.
~Hippie Chick~
So, this is where you all are; I was on the last thread writing a novel all alone!I'm a doofus.........
So, Kate lived and is back ,sh*%$t. I was hoping she went and had surgery to take the lead out of her right foot, and they took some time to examine her brain while she was under!
Did Kate get 5 i-pads from her fan? That would be 1 for Kate, 1 for twins and 3 for girl tups; boys are icky,remember!
Hi, Hippie.You're up early,it's 530am here.Hope you're feeling better!
My husband, SIL, BIL & myself drove through PA & saw so many dead deer lying on the side of the highway, I almost threw up.
Hey Jude...
Yep! Up at 6 with my boys, help my son off to school, have some coffee, check 15 Min, the off to a couple appts. today!
It's all rainy here, but I love the rain! I want to move to Seattle!
I have not read about, accepted OR received 5 iPads from you..so don't know why you are tweeting this to me? Please stop. 2 minutes ago
Kate JUST tweeted this...Hmm? What's this now? She HASN'T accepted or received any i-pads? So, the whole thing was maybe from a sheeple? What's going on? Someone trying to make Kate look bad. No one needs to do that, she just fine on her own.

Kate's claiming she knows nothing about the IPads and told the person who sent them to stop saying she is giving her those 5 IPads. Think it's a cover up? Sounds like Kate's getting alot of grief for it.Don't understand....didn't Kate say Cara screamed when she saw it?

I am thinking "nonstick mode" is really non SICK mode, since she is claiming to be under the weather (probably an autocorrect on the iPhone.
And I love she is claiming to be in "back to school mode"...on a Thursday morning, no less. Ask the kids if Monday through Wednesday didn't count.
I read an interesting article in regards to the new book on Sarah Palin and how this attack book is keeping Palin relevant. Don't you think that all we've got is her twittering to talk about is keeping Kate relevant? As long as the kids are filming, I have no interest in following her twats. I have also read the sheeple criticism, rightfully so, that we were supposed to be about getting the kids out of the filming, which has been accomplished, so why continue the interest in Kate? She's just not worth it. So until she attempts to involve the kids again in showbiz, I don't see much here to comment on.
Sorry, Admin, but I can see you have a vested interest in keeping this blog up, so why not go after TLC programming. If anyone happened to be the grocery store this week, "People" cover is about TLC's "Toddlers and Tiaras" and the headline was not flattering. Won't buy that rag but hopefully it slammed the show.
Meant to say as long as the kids are NOT filming, I have no interest in her tweets.

____________________________________
Koopdedoo, what a great (and funny) post! I've been a regular poster on this blog for years, because it's refreshing to read intelligent, witty posts by so many well-informed, well-educated, smart women (and KY Pastor). :)
Translator please, sorry I started reading from the bottom up this morning and just realized you were the person who posted, "Is Kate owning up to surgery? (Having the stick removed I mean?) It's probably not what she's saying at all (I admit to failing my first Kate Speak class, but maybe?)." Thanks for starting my morning off w/ a laugh, and now I'll go back to my stopping-off point last night and begin catching up.
I have an iPad, typing on it now. We're looking into getting one for our daughter, who is in upper high school, because the educational applications for a much older kid are enormous. She just read and annotated Heart of Darkness on mine and it was wonderful, she was able to take notes in several classes and print them straight from the iPad, and look up information on it while writing a paper.
All this to say I'm not completely convinced younger kids need iPads. For them, it's mostly a mobile game console, even with the educational apps. It's not needed for productivity or anything.
I find it interesting she's now defending the receipt of this gift. Didn't a different person (Melinda something?) claim credit for sending it before lindafoerrester did? Hey Kate, it's never smart to accept candy from strangers, as someone said above. Didn't your mom ever teach you that? STRANGER DANGER, KATE. In your shriveled grifter brain, you don't stop to think sometimes people want things in return for their gifts. Your time, attention, presence, something. More so when the gifts are pricey.
Ug, she's so stupid and lies so much, who knows if she even knows what the truth is. She lost track of the truth years ago.
Different topic: it's been four days since the Emmys, where are the pics of Kate?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. None. So either she lied about being there, or she was there and no one cared to take her picture, or she was there, her picture was taken and no one's buying it. I do think her agent sent her as a last-ditch effort to see if anyone was interested in hiring her, but knowing Kate, she probably thought it would be enough to just stand around and do that snarl-smile.
I also think she was getting something done at your friendly local cosmetic surgery. Not anything major, but something. But how would anyone know? No one is taking her picture! Oh poor Norma Desmond!
Barb In Nebraska said... I hope Kate only installs educational apps on the iPads. The 6 really need to get up to speed in school and this might help.

______________________________________
I think you make an excellent point here. Kate is always claiming that her kids get limited, FULLY SUPERVISED use of the computer. If anyone believes this, how will it be possible for her, or should I say her Nanny, to keep track of 5 wireless Ipads. She is too busy twitting on her leather couch to follow what the kids are doing.
As far as the Emmys....I still don't know what to beleive. I know if offered a freebie trip and tickets, Kate would jump on it, but why then wouldn't she take any of her OWN pictures to show off on her twitter. I mean, she takes pictures of her pukey looking salads and posts them. It makes no sense.
Dallas Lady: Oh poor Norma Desmond!

________________________
This "linda Foerrester" that tweeted Kate about receiving the iPad: I think she's a phony.
I don't know what she's up to, but she's only following Kate and has just 54 tweets. The giveaway is that she says her husband is in the NBA and they try to help where they can. I can't find any "Foerresters" in the NBA. Googling "Linda Foerrester" only gives 6 hits, one of them her Twitter account, 4 from the Grapevine, and 1 for a defunct 1985 Arkansas corporation. Linda is fictitious--fan or foe, I don't know...
There isn't much, if anything, that I have ever disagreed with Admin about, but this Ipad stuff, I do.
I think Kate bought this for herself and is just lying (shock) that it is a gift from a friend 'far' away or however she phrased it. She has to brag about it, and won't admit to spending the money on it. She continually ran her battery down on her phone and I think she just got tired of that. Poor thing, she has so many other things to worry about. That foresster person is another fraud, like the backpack person.
This is my take on it, and I am sticking to it. LOL

Is this another one of her half-truths, like the "I got a good bra?" She probably did, but also got the boob job, which she didn't deny. Notice she says that she says she didn't receive 5 iPads. Could be true. Maybe she received just one. Kate does this - has her own way of manipulating the truth. She's not lying, but isn't telling the whole story. Why didn't she say that she didn't receive an iPad (ONE)? This Linda person said that more are on the way, not that Kate was in possession of them.
Dallas Lady said...So either she lied about being there, or she was there and no one cared to take her picture, or she was there, her picture was taken and no one's buying it."
-------------------
She was there, I do believe that. The comedy writer remarked she was there. I would say NO ONE CARED. Not even People mag had a pix of her. (I didn't see any) I think that poor dear was stuck in the nosebleed section. Her mediocre comment and her crying about 'work' is NOT gaining her any sympathy at all. In fact, from what I have read here and there, people are just disgusted by her comments.
Ok now I'm confused.
1) Did Kate get a new ipad? Can someone post the original tweet where Kate says she received this ipad?
2) Did Kate at first publicly thank Linda Forrester for this gift and now is back pedaling?
3) Did we all assume because Kate mentioned getting the ipad that it came from this Linda person because of their twitter conversation a few months ago?
Just trying to figure out this latest drama. I swear, it's more convoluted than a soap opera!
Hm I'm confused now. She def tweeted she got an ipad from a far away friend. But she's denying that particular fan sent it. But who was she exchanging notes with on twitter about how to pick up the ipad back in August, was that the same persoN?
I may have missed Kate tweeting TO someone about Ipads, but this foressster person did post a lot awhile ago about sending Ipads. I never saw Kate acknowledge this person at all. Until today denying she got it from her.
I wish someone would ask her how her job search is going. She doesn't sound very happy this morning. You know...the Optimistic, positive, determind, hard working, cheerful, try my hardest, I'm not a fame whore Kate.
From what I understand, the name 'lindaforesster' is the real name of a huge sheeple. I think someone is just stirring it up again, as usual.
To clarify, anyone is welcome here if they follow the rules, including locals.
One or two locals however were really starting to annoy when I said repeatedly not to post insider information about the school, bus times, or other information that is revealing about the kids. This was repeatedly ignored by a few of them which yes, ticked me off. However, I have not seen anything posted of concern lately.

This person just tweeted that her ACTUAL name is on the bill of lading. So the fact that Kate didn't receive an iPad or iPads from one Linda Foerrester is most likely the truth. She got it from this Linda person who claims she sent it, tweets under the name of Linda, BUT her real name is NOT Linda, but something that she has not disclosed, and her real name shows up as the person who sent it.
That makes sense, but is it believable?

Okay this is what I think now. Kate got a freebie ipad from a "faraway friend" i.e. fan. Kate bragged about it. A crazypants took the opportunity and thought it would be funny to claim it and say I'm sending four more.
Actually, that is kind of funny.

Well she IS nuts. Perfect moniker. LOL
Kate just tweeted that the first fitness post will be up on her website today and that she "can't wait!". Is that because she didn't write it? lol

The audacity of her to joke about this.
You know what, one or two tickets, whatever, joke away.
Four speeding tickets, evidence of a serious problem on the road, STOP YOUR F-ING LAUGHS IT'S NOT FUNNY ANYMORE.
It's hard to figure out where the free iPad came from, but one thing is for sure, Kate grifted and accepted a freebie. She'll never change and she'll never pay it forward. Why not just say that she sure as hell can afford one, and to please donate the iPad or gift certificate to someone in need?
Hippie, thanks for the well wishes-- feeling better with just OTC meds, hoping to avoid antibiotics. My sweet husband and dogs are helping me on the way to better!
Kate is just stupid. It is all a big joke with her speeding tickets. This clearly shows how immature and insensitive she really is. Yes, Kate very funny. Especially the ticket you got while ALL of your children were in the car. You idiot.

If god forbid she injures someone due to her driving habits, her Twitter jokes about her speeding habit will come into evidence and will likely cost her with a jury.

LOL Whatever, Kate
She says she's a Miami Heat wife. Sleuthers out there?
The Big Three?
LeBron? Not married, but living with his girlfriend.
Dwayne? Separated
Chris? Wife is Adrienne
Kate tweeted that a "friend" sent it to her. Obviously, not much of a friend if she didn't know this person was tweeting under a different name! Has she even met her? I don't think Kate is an avid Heat fan!
One ticket? Ok most people have messed up a time or two in their lives, but Kate has had FOUR in very recent years. This is NOT normal. That is a reckless driver, period.
Good point about her tweets coming into evidence.
Why can't she man up, be the 36 year old that she is, and say, "I have made many mistakes out on the road and I apologize for them. I could have injured my family myself or others, I am horrified that I would make such a huge mistake, I have taken a very eye-opening driving class and I can assure you I will never speed again."
Instead we get LOL and speeding jokes. She is SO....DARN....INSENSITIVE.
The statistics don't lie, surely some of her sheeple out there have lost loved ones in car accidents. How can they justify this???

Completely agree. Check back on this blog. I did not do a post for her first ticket, or her second. Most people will get a few tickets now and again. Her third ticket, no post, though we did start talking about it.
Her fourth? You can bet I'm doing a post on that one and each and every one after it.
We cut this woman the biggest slack on this but this is one too many. She has a problem. She's going to kill someone. We said it here first.
The tween fans are reading your tweets IDIOT. Make all the jokes you want. Role model my rear. Teen accidents are so high it is horrific. So joke Kate, maybe your tween fans will find it funny too, when they get stopped.
Miami Heat must have a roster of at least 20 players, that's 20 people to check their marital status.
I desperately WANT an ipad. However, I have a desktop, a laptop and a kindle AND I am disabled so I don't really leave my house very often. As a result, I don't NEED an ipad and I feel like I can't really justify getting one.
Can I afford one? yes. (with money I made myself, btw, not off my kids) I still feel like it is an unjustified expense at this point because I have 3 other things that essentially fill the same gaps that an ipad would.
This is, I think, how adults are supposed to function. We may WANT something, but you look at all the other factors and determine if it's a good time to get it. If not, you wait a while.
I may eventually get one and give my kindle to my husband, which would benefit us both.
Michelle said: If god forbid she injures someone due to her driving habits, her Twitter jokes about her speeding habit will come into evidence and will likely cost her with a jury.
@@@@
It should be, but it's not likely. It would have to be relevant. Saying that she's back to 100 mph, while totally crass, wouldn't be admitted as evidence of her fondness for speeding, nor is it proof that she is a habitual speeder.
So joke Kate, maybe your tween fans will find it funny too, when they get stopped.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Or get killed. This whole thing really is outrageous, not the least of which is the teens she is joking with.
ADMIN very true. Nothing was said until the FOURTH ticket. This just is not a normal driving record at all. ESPECIALLY for a so-called mature adult female. But to joke about it? How immature can she be? She certainly has NOT learned from these tickets AT ALL.
I.e. the tweets would go to her reckless disregard.
The same as if you had someone testify that just before a high speed accident you were all joking and laughing at dinner about how you were going to go out and take over the road at high speeds.
Same thing.
Why five iPads? That means sharing! With money as no problem, as the wife of a Heat player, why stop at five? Why not nine - one for each person? Heck, why not 10...one for the not-a-nanny?

Such advice *blecchhh*
_______________________________________________
I’m talking to myself right now. I feel unmotivated because it’s raining outside and I don’t want to run in the rain again today. To make matters worse, my new favorite route is blocked off because of rising flood waters. I’m also tired from a long week. Such whining…
I also know that, because of my schedule, I haven’t gotten a run in yet this week– and the week is almost over…. I have two choices:
The same choices I have everyday…
I can give in and say “forget it” and quit or I can push myself to run even if that means running in the rain OR on the boring dreaded treadmill..
My choice… I find that the worst part of being a runner is trying to overcome that voice inside my head that is lazy and doesn’t care about being a champion..
I am NOT a quitter in life and I am NOT going to be a quitter when it comes to being a runner either!
I’m off to lace up my running shoes…
C’mon… You can do it too…
Or are you choosing to be a quitter ???!!!!

Wow. She couldn't wait for that dreck to be uploaded to her website?
She has said before that running in the rain is her favorite way to run. Now she says she hates to run in the rain? Which is it?

-----------
Advice: Just whine and complain but just keep on running! Run outside in the rain, when sick. YOU TOO can get pneumonia! Poor me I may have to run on that 'boring' treadmill, (aren't you glad "I" can afford the top of the line treadmill) Hey, plop in an audio book, remember BOOKS? The things you can read to LEARN things? Not a romance novel.
Just get up and GO, (don't forget to whine about your 'busy' week) Hair 'did' in NYC! Dinner with fish wrapped in paper! Shopping, shopping, shopping, a 'quick' trip the Emmy's in LA! Oh yeah, forgot ONE day I took my kids to school!
Oh, poor, poor Kate. Has all day to ponder whether she should run, or shouldn't run. Run in the rain or in the house, go on the regular route or her new "road blocked" root. Decisions, Decisions!! Kate, you have such BIG problems. I don't know how you make it through each day! (puke)
I have an idea, if you don't feel like running, why don't you pull out your ab Champ!
The fans were asking for TIPS. How to dress maybe, what to take LIKE WATER maybe, or how to run without injuring yourself. How to even begin a running routine. You know, TIPS.

@Kateplusmy8 you look great. We r sorry to hear it us so tough for u to date
1 hour agoFavoriteRetweetReply
Did anyone figure out how long she was in LA? She said she made a "mad dash" to the Emmys, but then she was still there shopping on the 20th, so her "dash" wasn't really very "mad", was it? Kind of like NYC, she was there on all the talk shows on the 12th, and there on the 14th. It's my guess that she went to NYC first to try to dig up a job, and nobody took her up on it. Then, a week later, she headed to LA for the same reason. Made an appearance at the Emmys so everyone would know she was there, and waited for the phone to ring. Came home "sick" when the phone didn't ring.
Also, I am wondering if she is being deliberately snubbed by the paps/news outlets I would think that someone, somewhere, would take a recent picture, since her show was just cancelled and she just ticked off the entire US with her "mediocre" comments. But nobody--nobody--has run even a single picture. Even the recent negative stories, about her making that "mediocre" comment, bashing Jon, and about her speeding, have old pictures. You know she would have put herself front and center for a picture, just to keep her face out there.
Kate's blog entries are below mediocre yet her fans will hoop and holler and send her twitter kisses for all her "awesome" advice.
I kind of like it. Her fans feed her ego, which obviously falters about every 20 minutes or so. Then she goes out in the real world (the Emmys) and no one pays any attention to her.
It's a sad life but it's her life.
Fitness tips Suggestions:
If you want to inspire someone to get off their backside, let's really do this:
What type of shoes are best for running?
Running on pavement or track?
Running cross country?
What clothing to wear?
Lightweight? Layers? Is underarmour necessary?
Do you carry water with you?
If so, how?
If not, what do you do to help with thirst?
What type of safety items?
Reflective tape? Backpack flasher for running at night?
Okay, those are just a few I could come up with.
Then if she really wanted to move it forward, let's talk about sponsors for products, offering a contest to her readers for free products, or even get a sponsor to put a coupon on her site.
I DO this for a living, help people by building and promoting their websites. She has an agent that can't even help her get beyond 'herself'. After a certain point it's all crap she spews - nothing that offers anyone anything. She has potential to MAKE it even in the blogging world if she just put some effort into it. But she doesn't want to work, she just wants to be praised.
Yeah, it takes weeks/months/even a year at times to get a decent sponsor to advertise, but she's only interested in selling and promoting herself and her ability to brag about her "Eight - count'em - Eight" children.

Where IS our friend E-town anyway? MIA lately!
I was wondering the same thing!
A Pink Straight Jacket For Kate said... OMG, Permanent!
How frightening for your son & DNL.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Pink, what they say now when they are telling the story is that it was like a Twilight Zone episode. It happened in the blink of an eye, and they have no idea why their first horrified assumption was it was a deer head rolling down the road.
DS was the driver, he got out of the car on side where deer hit and didn't even realize there was no deer (it had gotten up and run back already by the time they stopped and got out).
You know they must have been in shock when they looked at the side view mirror back 100 feet in the road and thought "that's a strange looking deer head".
DIL said it was the single most weird moment in her life. Their bodies must have been saturated in adrenaline and cortisol...
The point they make is that it happened in the blink of an eye. They were driving safely but the deer hit them.
It wasn't until later that they all sat down and figured out what must have really happened. Then they were worried about the deer who ran back into the woods.
Yes, stories like this make me nervous about driving because sometimes you just can't even see an accident coming.
Do any of you remember the old Reader's Digest regular 'Drama in REal Life'? That used to freak me out and I had to quit reading them. ---- "Sally and Suzie were driving down the quiet country road, enjoying the fall color foliage. They had agreed to take this weekend trip to relax and catch up on family news and gossip. Little did they know that 2 miles down the road, beyond a curve, that there lives would be changed forever."......... cue scary music! And of course it would be something like an accident, one trapped under a burning car, blah blah, blah and the sad story of pain and recovery....
Those Drama in Real Life stories scared the crap out of me, point being that I could be driving down the road all happy and not realize that in 10 minutes I might be dead.
I scare easily I guess............

Yet another reminder of the importance of
driving defensively. You just never know what will cross your path.

Exactly!!!
When I want an i-pad, I go to my local Verizon store & play w/ theirs.
I DO want one, sure. But I can't justify it. I have a laptop. I have a notebook that I do my homework on & use for my Go Green meetings cause I'm the secretary & we have the big laptop. The notebook my son uses too to play games & stuff. My bigger laptop is old, the memory is HIGH & yes, I would like a newer one, but I LOVE this damn thing. There are 500 other things I could spend that money on.
If someone said to me right now "Jenna, I am going to donate 500 bucks to you." This is what I would do:
Well, I'd buy some of my cereal because I just ran out this morning (lol), but it's buy 2 for 5$ at Rite Aid, then I would give the rest to Moore*Mart for their needs. www.mooremart.org
The troops need it more than we do.

Exactly! They asked for TIPS. Not that whiny stuff. Some of the people claim they just started running by HER inspiration. Some people have no clue what are the proper shoes, etc. I have never seen any picture of her running with WATER with her. She even admitted she didn't have any with her recently. This can be dangerous for people experienced or not. She took the lazy way out, again on this one. Rah, rah, GO RUN don't quit! '"I" don't quit in life.' Ok. yawnnnnnn
She has always taken gifts from fans on the one hand while pronouncing her hatred of them on the other. She didn't embrace her fans until she knew the show was over. Remember the fan that used to send the kids the T-shirts - one set had numbers on them and she had them wear them in birth order.
And was that really her fitness post or was that a joke?
Falling like a brick said...

Her agent has to be completely embarrassed don't you all think? Between the tweets and this new website ... Kate is really letting her "crazy" show.
I really wonder if her agent hasn't severed ties? Kate hoofing it to NY and LA makes me think she's job hunting and trying to get herself "out there." I know nothing about the business, but isn't that something an agent usually does for you?
The first paragraph of Kate's post reads:
I’m talking to myself right now. I feel unmotivated because it’s raining outside and I don’t want to run in the rain again today. To make matters worse, my new favorite route is blocked off because of rising flood waters. I’m also tired from a long week.
She forgot to add "Chris' phone keeps going to his voice mail".
Loved the video. Kate and Jon both have asked for this. Early on they described their children with labels like, "wild child", etc. No surprise that some of these will stick. They have done their children no favors. Money cannot buy back their early childhood privacy. We saw a bully, wild girl, introvert, mom's favorite, nerd, and just plain crazy in that parody. Sad, really.

@
@MiloandJack nope. It's still here ;) liking my new ipad2 a lot!!!
So, it's the new iPad2
Ipad2:
It pretty much had to be the ipad 2. Apple only has a few refurbished iPads they sell. Otherwise you'd have to get a first generation somewhere else. Pretty much all apple sells now are iPad 2s.
They start at $500. I'm looking into getting one for my 17 year old daughter for her birthday and my husband for Christmas. My husband got me an iPad (1) for our anniversary last year.
All with money we earned ourselves, of course. LOL. Daughter works part-time at an ice cream shop and she can spend her paycheck how she pleases. :)
Funny video. It's probably closer to fact than fiction too. The thing is if Kate sees it she'll be flattered because it's still about HER. She just doesn't get it. Most people would hang their head in shame that there's that kind of parody about them floating around the internet. Hilarious clip nevertheless and to that I say nyuck, nyuck Kate...you're a laughing stock.
I get a feeling from some of her tweets and by her blog entry today that she's slipping into a depressed phase. It might finally be sinking in that it's over. I don't feel sorry for her I never will but what I do worry about now is that she'll be harder than ever to live with, if that's humanly possible. And once again it's the ones who are closest to her that will be the target of her wrath. Maybe it's a good thing Steve is sticking around...you don't suppose he knew the day was coming when there would be no show and there would be no one close at hand to deflect her anger away from those kids? Or am I just thinking wishfully?
I think she only got one ipad, not four or five.
Here tweet said:
Kateplusmy8 ..just got an iPad 4a late bday present from a far away friend..& u guessed it..My (almost) 11 yr olds took it over, lol! So in love w it 2!
Barb in Nebraska said...
I hope Kate only installs educational apps on the iPads. The 6 really need to get up to speed in school and this might help. But, if she puts wireless on it, she's in trouble, the kids could download almost anything and surf to anywhere! I'm sure Kate won't figure this out and also won't be able to figure out parental controls either. So worried that the twins will see/hear more about their mom on the web.
---------------------------------------------
Why worry? The twins know a lot. They hear about it at school. IMO, that's why one of the them went comatose for the show. In time, there is nothing to stop them from finding out the full extent of this exploitation. Human nature will drive them to find out what's out there on the web. They are already armed with some of the knowledge on where to look.
Jon stated that he was glad the show was over and maybe the children would receive needed help (or something to that effect). This is exactly what he was talking about.
As a conversational topic, the twins must ask Jon about having such a controversial mother, and all the associated talk on the net. I wonder how he handles it.

Just saw the above recent RT (retweet) and Kate's comment about how Perez Hilton got it all wrong again. Kind of like how Perez got it all wrong when he was the first one to report that your show was cancelled?
Btw, the link to Perez's article is hilarious - she looks totally insane in the photo!

Is that Linda? I thought it was proven Linda didn't send anything? I'm soooo confused.
Here's what I think, not that it matters. I think someone sent Kate an Ipad, via her local Apple store, and she went and picked it up and looked at other stuff too, thus her trip to the Apple store. I think that a weirdo then picked up on the fact that she couldn't resist bragging about it and started tweeting that she had sent it and is sending 4 more, which Kate has refuted. (Or Kate could have bought her own, but made it look like it was gifted so she wouldn't take heat for it, but of course that backfired too.) I think Kate got one, that's all she's getting, but people are stirring stuff up. Come on - a basketball player's wife? Puh-leeze.

Schmecky Girl is calling Kate on her BS comment re: Perez Hilton's article today where she said that nothing he wrote was the true. Schmecky used Kate's own words to prove Kate's BS. Good job SG!

@Kateplusmy8 @PerezHilton What exactly is not true? Reads as accurate to me.
Perez's article:
Is Kate Gosselin having a Nervous Breakdown?
Yes. She. Is!
Now that her show Kate Plus 8 has been cancelled and all of her kids are back in school; Kate Gosselin is all alone in her house with no job and nothing to do, and she's totally freaking out!
A source close to Kate says:
“Kate thought she’d get a job immediately or be offered to take her reality show to another network but she’s getting a wakeup call. She is working on her website and trying to come up with things to do but she’s miserable.”
Kate said she'd get a mediocre "normal" job (if she must stoop that low) but it doesn't sound like she's really trying. The source says right now Kate is waiting around for upcoming short-term gig co-hosting The Talk:
“Kate is still firming up the details on The Talk but that wouldn’t pay much anyway. She would only host it for a week but then what?”
Right now Kate is still trying to make her website, Kateplusmy8.com, some kind of web phenomenon, but that doesn't really seem to be working out either.
Do U feel sorry for Kate? Tweet us UR thoughts HERE!

wow oh wow, below comment was posted last night. KG, people who care are not haters. But, you are fast becoming the most hated person in the US, on many social media sites . I feel sorry for JCM. No one is ever going to take her serious after all this.
Regarding the video posted: "BRILLIANT!!! So right on that it's heartbreaking. This will be the kids' future if someone doesn't save them from Mommie Dearest! Please join us anti-Kate protestors on Kate's twitter @kateplusmy8"
She thinks her following has gone up because she is adored, but that is not true. Over half are people who disagree with her, and 40% are not real people at all. They were bought names by TLC. Someone is researching the fake accounts.
KG, honey you are falling faster than a shooting star, and no pun is intended. Lie after lie, after lie, 365 days a year.
I am kind of with myself today. I dont care about Katie's iPad. I really dont care. If someone is STOOOPID enough to fall for her lies after all this time, then they deserve being scammed. And I dont care that she casually mentioned Perez Hilton's article. I dont care. Yawn....
I do care that she is a habitual speeder, even with her children in the car; I care that she is an angry driver; I sort of care that she is taking credit for the lame shit on a website designed to pimp the kids some more. (Notice how she doesnt say that SHE put up a post, or SHE actually wrote something, just that something "has been posted"; if that 'we celebrate food!' didnt tip off the entire world, I dont know what will.)
Over the years, we have seen celebs keep their children protected from the media. An article not too long ago about David Bowie's son using a different name and earning a PhD in something, not even most of his friends knew who he was - HIS CHOICE. My cousin went all through high school with Aretha Franklin's son, no one knew who his famous mom was. I myself went to college with XXXX's sister, she didnt ride his coatails, wonderful woman. One of my daughters knows dozens of Nashville celebs, personal cell phone numbers, been to their homes and out on the town with them, but my child will not spill beans or out the kids.
My point - every illegal, unethical, humanly disgusting thing this Katie Irene person does for years and years (and she aint done humiliating herself yet) will humiliate each child, because she has taken away any hope of dignity, privacy, personal space, freedom, that an underage citizen in a free society has a right to expect. It's too late now to undo it, although lordy knows many of us tried to stop it when it was happening in front of us.
So yeah, she is disgusting and I want to see her punished for what she has done to those babies, but I have no thoughts or emotion about her iPad or the game she is playing on twitter about it. It really is just the most desperate, silly, middle school thing she has cooked up in... well over a week.
Good Grief... meant to say "pleased with myself today" up above, not that I am just plain old "with myself today." Which I am, just didnt mean to say it like that.
Well said Dwindle. Most normal people, don't go around bragging about their friends who are famous, nor do they spill the secrets, or act like a twat on twitter.
Especially by pimping out her own children.
She could not have been at the Emmy's, no matter what that ONE person said? She could have thought it was KG, but wouldn't KG have sent a pic of herself to ROL or at lest IN*? She can't help herself, kinda like the playboy pose in Australia. LOL
How will her kids ever live that ahot down?
And, hard to believe anyone sent her a new IPAD 2, at all, or that she gave it to her child. She never gives them anything like that. Too selfish?
Where's the pic Kate? The one of Cara with the new IPAD 2, that is on back order?
@PerezHilton is so well connected in the industry. Not a good move bashing him for posting the truth.
@CJWhodunit @poorbabi What's w all my tweeties having surgeries?Get better soon Lisa!Hope ur going 100mph again soon (YOU, not in your car!)
++++++++++++++++++
She's STILL doing it! Second time today - mocking the system! She's nuts - there is no other explanation why she is doing it!
Kirkland:
As far as I can figure out, this Linda person said back in August that she was sending iPads to Kate's home address. Kate recently tweeted that she received it from a far-away friend. Then, after Linda tweeted that she was glad she finally received them, and more were on their way, Kate tweeted to Linda saying she didn't know her, why she was saying this and to please stop.
Linda then tweeted that this is not her real name, and the return address would show Kate her real name. She said that she is the wife of a Miami Heat player and reiterated that more iPads are forthcoming.
That's as much as I can figure out. Any additions or corrections are appreciated!

I had to laugh about this. I'm thinking of Reese in Legally Blonde, when she goes to the party, thinking it's a costume party, and says..."When I dress up as a frigid bitch I try not look so constipated."
Perfect Halloween costume, going as Kate, the frigid b**ch.
Admin - Thank you, thank you for the video. I haven't taken the time to read all the comments, but just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed the video - still laughing!! I hope it goes viral and the networks pick it up. I'll stay up later tonight in the hope of seeing it on at least one of the late-night shows. Thanks again for all you do to keep "us" up to date.
Thanks Gosselin's Gossip for answering my question about the ipads. The reason I asked is because, I always thought if the the kids ever got on the internet, the stuff they are able to now read is going to hit the fan.
Home sick, channel surfing and found the perfect show for Kate: Maury.
The little I could bear to watch was friends and family members asking for help getting their loved one(s) to stop dressing like whores.
Go for it Katie.
She's Nuts - Thanks for the clarification. But regardless of who sent Kate the iPad, Kate acknowledged only receiving one from a friend. Later, Kate even tweeted she was "....liking my new ipad2 a lot!!!"
To me, sounds like she received only one.
Dee3,sorry for your loss of a young son,I feel connected to grieving moms.To everyone who has stepped up to support me, Layla, dee3, and anyone else who has spoken about personal loss, I say 'thank-you'.I do believe that we hate the way kate treats/uses/abuses those wonderful, healthy 8 kids because the universe has not been fair to us. Why does she get all the breaks? What did she ever do to become 'special'? Why should she have her own talk-show, or book deals, fancy material things? As for advice on parenting, SHE SUCKS! The moms who post here, who have older children, are way more qualified to teach other moms, because we have already gone thru it! She, has not. We have done it all on our own, she has not. We have struggled to find ways to give our kids things that they want, she has not.It is just not enough for her to give the kids the basics of life, with a large amount of love and kisses to go with them.She seems to think that you can 'buy' kids material things, then go off and ignore them while she has her mutitudes of 'me time'. My 'me time' was after my kids went to bed, and not a minute before. Then I would spend time making their healthy lunches, and writing little notes on their napkins.Then it was the nightly clean-up. If I was not too wiped out, I would jump into a bubble bath, and relax away the day.The world did not owe me or my kids anything extra, certainly not served on a 'golden' platter.Just because the rest of us did not birth 8 children, does not make us any less than the wondeful, spell-binding kate kreider, who spent ump-teen weeks on bedrest.I would never want to be like kate, not for all the money in the world.And I think a lot of us here think the same way. We hate kate because she thinks she is so deserving of everything, and is better than the rest of us. She takes those kids for-granted.And worse, is all of her lies she tells so easily. I'm sorry, but the things that kate says that her kids tell her-like thanking her for trips,things,and how they are crying due to the show closing,and singing her the 'thankful' songs they sing to her when they come back from a weekend with their awesome dad-they are all big BS! And kate is full of it.
Thanks for the good wishes, now I do feel welcome here:)

@@@@
You are absolutely correct about that. I lived among the Amish and with an Old Order Amish (Beachy) family when I was doing research for several publications. The Gosselin children aren't being raised part Amish...not even close.
There's a world of difference. The Gosselin children do watch television, videos and have access to the internet, whether it is at home or school. Amish children are very much a part of the socialization process within their own communities, and beyond their immediate families.
As I recall, from my time lurking here, this blog was created to aid in getting the Gosselin's kids off television. They are finally no longer being filmed so, strangely enough, I thought the blog would end. What I see now, no disrespect to Admin, is the Administrator of the blog is still keeping Kate relevant through the blog posts of her antics. While I have truly enjoyed reading the many posts from the varied population who did their best to voice extreme displeasure over the Gosselin's exploitation, I find this blog is now a "What is Kate Up To" blog and is giving that woman more relevancy than any other site, fan sites included. I think Kate loves reading this blog even if she doesn't like what she reads about herself. She thinks/knows she is still 'out there'. Good bye to all those who have posted over the years, I have truly enjoyed reading and communicating back and forth with you. Now, I am leaving this site and removing it from my bookmarks as I no longer consider Kate newsworthy or worth my time reading about.
This is just to correct some inaccurate information I have read here about iPads. ALL iPad models come with Wi-Fi built in. You don't have to pay anything for a monthly data plan UNLESS you get the iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G (that model is more like a large version of the iPhone).
I swear I do not work for Apple! I just know that everyone on this blog would like accurate information.
The iPad is nice because it is portable and big enough to be able to actually be able to read and do things online. (I don't know how people can even read their email on those small iPhones.) I don't own one, but my adult daughter does and she uses it a lot.
Kate accepting this generous gift proves yet again how completely greedy and selfish she is. She has no shame.
It sounds like the giver of the iPad is ignorant about Kate. I hope someone does what Admin suggested and tweets to this misguided soul to donate the additional iPads to those who could really use them and would sincerely appreciate them.
Long time Canadian lurker said... As I recall, from my time lurking here, this blog was created to aid in getting the Gosselin's kids off television. They are finally no longer being filmed so, strangely enough, I thought the blog would end. What I see now, no disrespect to Admin, is the Administrator of the blog is still keeping Kate relevant through the blog posts of her antics. While I have truly enjoyed reading the many posts from the varied population who did their best to voice extreme displeasure over the Gosselin's exploitation, I find this blog is now a "What is Kate Up To" blog and is giving that woman more relevancy than any other site, fan sites included. I think Kate loves reading this blog even if she doesn't like what she reads about herself. She thinks/knows she is still 'out there'. Good bye to all those who have posted over the years, I have truly enjoyed reading and communicating back and forth with you. Now, I am leaving this site and removing it from my bookmarks as I no longer consider Kate newsworthy or worth my time reading about.

I was just wondering if anyone saw this. Sorry if everyone is already aware of it.
I still haven't gone over to Kate's website, & I don't plan on it, but what is she trying to do w/ it, I wonder? Does she think she is going to get someone's attention & make mega-bucks off of it?
If she's looking to just unload thoughts & give advice, fine. There are THOUSANDS of those. I know cause I have one. If she is looking to stay relevant, well, I don't think that is her answer. Her site should have been DONE & READY when she announced it.
She should have had a launch party, she should have sold the hell out of it, had sponsors lined up, she should have snatched up any urls that sounded anything like her name/names (+8, Kate+8, etc), there should have been planning! She really effed the pooch on this one. Now, her site is lost in a sea of look-alikes because she didn't have the foresight to be patient. She just jumped in w/ blinders on.
Some celeb websites are so, so good. I can't think of any of the top of my head, but they are updated daily, they have amazing tips, great articles, etc. Kate's is just...lame. I mean, mine is too lately, I've been so busy w/ family stuff & ya know, life, but my blog isn't my INCOME! & I'm not trying for it to be either.
Kate just does not think ahead. She really may have had something if she thought this through. OH! Roseanne, there ya go! She has a good site. She is opinionated, she has videos, she updates all the time...OK, done rambling!
Sorry for the long post! :)

Please forgive me Administration, I'm not computer savvy enough to know some of the abbreviations. What does NLC and fictiv stand for. Again sorry.
The Ap store she is referring to may be the one on the Ipad. I think it comes pre-loaded.
Just to set the record straight as Kate does this blog started to chronicle the divorce. It never was set up as a child advocacy site although concern for the kids has certainly been a hot topic. As have many other topics. It's a Gosselin site.
After reading what I posted above, I will no longer go to her site, which really was not vary often, but I did get a little curious. One thing I did notice was that she kept everything closed for comments, except for the email. It was no "Live" web site, as she claimed.
Anonymous said... I would never let my child go to the private school where the G8 attend. The children appear way behind on their advancement level, and the Headmaster should have spoken up to the parents, or expelled them all for good, since it was on purpose.
----------------------------------------------
I have no insider info on this, but the post caught my attention. I fear the school, which by all accounts is a very fine institution, may be grappling with this issue regarding the parents of those enrolled. In other words, on the other side of the way you are looking at it.
I've come in contact with graduates of schools with the same last three words in the name (a couple of differnt geographical areas as the first word), and all were well educated and spoken. In general, and certainly not specific to this case, as I do not pocess any knowledge regarding the G's preparedness, I don't think any school should be held responsible for the lack of a student's willingness to obtain an education. The advantage that private and charter schools have over traditional public schools is that they do not have to attempt to educate all those who are assigned to the school. They can and do come to the conclusion that a student's educational needs may be best suited elsewhere. IMO, this shoe, as well, will drop. Katie will dress it up as a cost issue, and some have speculated that the tuition was in some way part of the TLC contract, but IMHO, I don't think too many at the present institution will be too disappointed. I've wondered what percentate of students enrolled at the school come from families where neither parent attended college. My guess is that it is low.
I personally, wouldn't want my kids anywhere near the G8, as my thought process is, that if anything were to happen, no matter how slight, Katie wouldn't hesitate to sue.
Again, I have no insider information and the opinions expressed are purely speculation on my part.
Admin, will you be doing a recap of the finale at some point? Love your recaps!
