Realitytvkids.com (Administrator) said... Jon has taken numerous complaints about Kate to the courts, I know this for a fact. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No, it did not come from Jon, Melanie. I do not know who leaked it or who the sheeple can blame for the leak, it could have been anyone, but I read the briefs from Blank Rome. They were appalling.
ADMIN: Blank Rome was around 2010-11, yes? I suspect what many of us are wondering is whether Jon has returned to court about custody-related matters since that publicly contentious time period. And if so, is it a sustained effort? As in: As often as has proved necessary for the kids' well-being, and to protect his own rights, as their father.
Can you address this question? In general terms, if privacy concerns preclude you from providing specific details?
OMG..someone is really insisting a Public Defender can be used in a divorce or custody case or any other civil case for that matter? Really, before you type such nonsense...Google is your friend....
And yes, I called every day until our matter was settled. On my coffee breaks and sometimes during lunch I would pay him a visit.
--------------
Well, yes, when you're not writing a check every month you can do this, but gosh, if you're paying out of pocket, you don't call every day or pay for a visit, especially not at $400 an hour. The clock is ticking on a phone call, and when you get the bill you just about fall over, not having realized exactly how much time you spent on the phone with the attorney.You wait for his phone calls, and if he has something to report, if he/she is a good attorney you will be informed about what is happening in your case. I can't imagine calling my attorney every day or making a regular trip to see him. Maybe some attorneys like that, but it could also have the reverse effect and they might not look forward to so many phone calls because it makes them look like they are not doing their job.
'Numerous' as in how many? See, I'm a fierce mom and I'd LIVE at the judge's courthouse and home if my son's 'dad' did anything CLOSE to what Kate has done to Jon.
---------------
And you'd end up really pi$$ing off the judge to the point that he'd throw up his hands, get sick and tired of you and depending on the judge, you'd put your case in jeopardy because he'd see you as a contentious person who is not letting the system work.
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack · 27m @Truth_Teller201 I just don't believe Kate was on that call...& another thing...how rude 2easedrop on a private ph conversation! #Therapist?
Well, Milo, geez...you and Kate are bosom buddies. Why not just ask her instead of speculating and pestering the therapist about it? Wait. Didn't she just tweet Kate to answer the question about smoking, and Kate never answered? lol!
Milo and company had better watch what they're saying to Dr. Jen. I'd hate to see her sick the network's lawyers on them. Who am I kidding? I'd love to see something like that happen. They seem to be ganging up and bullying Dr. Jen. Why aren't BV and his minions stepping in to help?
Yes, we get it. Jon and TFW only text each other HOWEVER he was calling to TALK TO HIS KIDS and TFW happened to pick up the phone. He didn't call her he called his kids and he never said that he only texts with his kids.
I hope that things look up for those of you having troubles or health issues.
I remember when CT was just starting they showed clips of upcoming episodes and in one it actually showed Jon saying something like "I need to talk to my kids" and that never aired. I guarantee you Kate saw that clip and got her attorneys to stop them from airing any part where she was involved in conversation. They would have had to not air because they didn't have a signed release from her allowing it. Gosh she's such a Biotch, and now she plants story on ROL that the conversation never happened.
Wow! Nice rant! :) I couldn't agree with you more!! I'm old enough to have lost my naivete and idealism long ago (two reasons I do not vote anymore). We, the people, are powerless. I zip my lips when I see the comments about Jon should go to court, etc. As you said he's been numerous times. You've listed several reasons why going to court isn't the end-all to Jon's problems. I firmly believe there is NO end-all to Jon's problems. ********* I hope that Jon has and will continue to develop salvage strategies for dealing with raising his children with Kate until they are 18. There will be no happy ending for this co-parenting story. It's safe to say, at this point, that is a foregone conclusion. What's left is how Jon handles the things he can change, affect and use to his advantage. And of course, the wisdom to know the difference and just let go.
I know I don't like some of Jon's behaviors, CT included, but years of observing him and just about every single personal testimonial supports the fact that he's a good person and parent. I just can't imagine the toll this is taking on him. Years of dealing with a full blown narc can and will burn the every living heck of of your adrenal system and can leave you so imbalanced that you don't function anywhere near optimally. Hopefully, Jon will become enabled enough to take back his power and his health, for his kids' sakes.
I'm sure there are tapes or other evidence that the conversation actually took place which is why TFW has not come out and publically stated that the conversation in question never happened. All Jon would have had to have done was hold the phone away from his ear and anyone within a 10 mile radius could have heard the banshee screaming at him. No "easedroping" required Milo.
Are you guys using your real names to get Travoltaized? I hope not cause the sheep will have a "hay" day with making your lives miserable if they figure our your real names. They will be blatting them all over Twitter. Seriously, they are all one Brady short of a bunch.
I cannot stand how ROL has become the "go-to" rag when people want to get their name in celeb news. So basing on an anonymous source, they print whatever, true or not. Frankly, I am sick and tired of this tit for tat going on with Kate and Jon. The door was opened, on this debate as to whether there was or was not a genuine phone call, by CT, Jon and Dr. Jen. It's believable, knowing Kate's vindictiveness, that she is incredibly rude to Jon and monitors his ability to speak to his kids. I can't help but feel Jon was prompted by CT producers to make the call just to see what would happen so they could air it. If so, bad judgment on Jon's part. CT and Dr. Jen are well aware of the animosity between Jon and Kate and that scene was planted for drama. If I were Kate, I'd be pissed off too. Gee, I can't believe I am sort of defending her, but Jon signed up for this crapola. Of course, I am basing this on what has been reported here about the scene, but it's all a bunch of bull by both parents. Kate has not been able to completely eliminate Jon from the kids lives like the others, so for this I do admire Jon for sticking to his guns, even if he resorts to making money based on his "fame".
ITA she is working the phones to get a People cover for the tups' birthday. Actually, I would not be surprised there is a cover for her turning 39 the end of March. It's all about her anyway and she is proud of her skinny body and botoxed face which People will airbrush much to her delight. Oh well. As long as Katie Coyne remains fixated on Kate, I guess we will be faced with her mug on an issue. Blah!
ITA, Tucker's mom. Jon will have to deal with Kate until all the kids turn 18. Gee, I hope this does not mean they will still be in the tabloids for eight more years.
CT and Dr. Jen are well aware of the animosity between Jon and Kate and that scene was planted for drama. ************8 This calls into question the doctor's credibility. But I guess to be a therapist on a reality show, maybe you don't have to be professional and credible? I don't know. Seems detrimental to who you are supposedly treating.
Easedrop, eh? Where's Mrs. Malaprop when you need her!
Milo Travoltified is Matteo. She sounds so exotic!
Marie I didn't use my real name for Travoltified I used Administrator Reality T.V. Kids.
If the shoe were on the other foot and this was Kate's therapist defending Kate, and the haters started contacting her saying it was inappropriate for her to take sides and that she was lying, can you imagine the conniption the sheeple would have? What am I saying, Kate will never go to therapy.
As far as texting, my God they take it so darn literally. A unique exception came up in that Jon was out of town on business. While he normally just texts, he had to call that time so he could speak with the kids. Perfectly logical and reasonable. They're like little kids who get upset when you deviate from the plan that they had been told and wrapped their minds around and can't switch gears as easily as more mature kids and adults can. Sheeple, good grief.
OT here, but I get such a kick out of watching TFW's book bomb. So...in February, Novelrank shows a total of 67 copies of LIITm sold. Yeah, 67. In a month. There were 46 in the US, 5 in the UK, and 6 in Canada, plus 10 Kindle. Grand total after more than 11 months is 1,595 copies, which includes US, foreigh, and Kindle sales. Double that for sales from other sources, and she may have sold a little over 3,000 copies. Now, if that isn't evidence of her lack of popularity, I don't know what is.
I also fully expect to see a Tups Turn 10 cover on People mag in May. People seems to have taken on the burden of supporting TFW now that her media career is over. Suckers.
Maybe some attorneys like that, but it could also have the reverse effect and they might not look forward to so many phone calls because it makes them look like they are not doing their job.
&&&
Yes. Few attorneys enjoy a constant barrage of phone calls from the same client. Frivolous phone calls every day also prevent an attorney from hunkering down and working up their cases. You can't work up a case when you have a phone stuck to your ear or a client interrupting you over their lunch or break all the time. I work through my lunch almost every single day just to keep up.
Public defenders usually have huge case loads. If every client called every day and stopped by for lunch, they'd never get anything done. People complain that their attorneys are not greasing the wheels. They never consider maybe that's because they're on the phone all the time with people who insist on calling every day even when nothing new has developed. An attorney is ethically obligated to keep clients apprised of significant developments in the case. There are rarely developments every day or even every week. An attorney is not obligated to talk to you every day if nothing significant is going on. Greedy's attorney sounds very patient and kind. I hope he had time for his other cases. It does depend on your attorney. Some need more prodding than others. But poking and pestering them every day really isn't going to help you much more than a client who makes a short and reasonable phone call every week or every two weeks to check in.

But I guess to be a therapist on a reality show, maybe you don't have to be professional and credible? I don't know. Seems detrimental to who you are supposedly treating. ***** In two weeks of filming, with Jon living at the CT house in CA, with cameras and crew around 24/7, at some point, Jon will be filmed making phone calls to his children. It's not like they said, "hey, Jon, why don't you call one of your ex girlfriends, you know, like Hailey Glassmen?" Why would Jon be calling Hailey, or Kate 2.0? He wouldn't. He would, however, be calling his kids- many times. You know why it would possible be a "get" on film? Because his bitch of an ex wife REFUSES to act like a responsible adult and co-parent with Jon, including civilized phone calls, which would and should be de rigueur. Kate has spent YEARS using the fact that they rarely speak, and communicate by text and email as a talking point, trying to garner sympathy for her poor, entitled self. Think about it. Why would a routine phone call, checking in on the kids, be any big deal? Because of the level of sickness and dysfunction that has enveloped this embattled couple. But sure, let's throw out the red herring that Dr. Jen's being unprofessional for not being deaf. Make her the scapegoat when she's just standing in the right or wrong place at the right or wrong time. Oh, and if Milo wants to blame Dr. Jenn for easedropping, then isn't she saying that Kate actually WAS on the other end of the phone, and that Jon and Kate DO NOT strictly communicate electronically?
I just love when Milo gets hoisted by her own petard.
Dr. Jenn, to her credit, immediately understood that the bulk of Jon's issues relate to his unresolved issues with Kate. One of those issues, she immediately understood, was the animosity for them.
I would submit that it would be unprofessional of her to NOT observe some of his interactions with Kate. She needed to do that to understand exactly what was going on between them and to help give him feedback to attempt to make it better. She has every right to do that. She doesn't need to ask Kate or tell Kate that she is standing right there. She wasn't being a busybody or trying to satisfy her own morbid curiosity. She was trying to help Jon with one of his biggest problems--dealing with the parental alienator on the other line. And I respect her for trying.
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack · 9m @Owner09708009 @DrJennBerman @Truth_Teller201 Kate knows his #...she would not answer IMO because of past difficulties w/verbal exchanges.

How mature. This just shows how defiant TFW is. My ex used to really emotionally abuse me, coldly and calculatedly, then when I would finally blow up he would say "see you're crazy". That's what these abusers do.
Jon has a family court judge who apparently has shown no interest in making Kate comply with the existing custody order, even though he has filed numerous complaints. Knowing this, Jon then announces on national TV that he will sue for full custody of the younger six. Now, how does this make any sense at all? Does he actually think this will happen, or is he just talking to talk?
Oh, I see Blank Rome is a law firm. Oh, and I hope Milo's bullying results in CT showing the full clip of the phone conversation including captions for what TFW is saying. Or would that be illegal?
Signed, Lyall.
Wait, shouldn't that be TFW's Travoltified name? Seriously that's what I got for localyocul
I was at my aunt's last night helping her organize her tax stuff and couldn't believe it, but she's a Teen Mom 2 watcher. I'm not familiar with the show, but was amazed that these young girls manage to co-parent with their exes far better than an almost 40 year old woman. One girl's ex was having a baby with another woman, yet he got to come into her home for their daughter's 4th birthday. Another girl who is now remarried got together with her ex and his new spouse to discuss health issues with their daughter.
Pretty pathetic that girls 20 years younger than you can put their own feelings aside for the sake of their children and you can't.
Since I haven't watched the show and haven't watched Dr. Jenn, I may not really know what I am talking about but I am just skeptical about these therapists on TV (ex. Dr. Phil). Bottom line, therapy should not be for the public consumption, IMO. These therapists on TV are being paid and it's in their interest to drum up the ratings. I guess I question just how much good they are able to do for a person within the confines of a limited TV show airing who may sincerely need long term help. Jon may need years of help. Will Dr. Jenn meet him after the show ends to continue therapy? Offer him reduced rates? Does she just write off these people and move on to the next group of guests?
I realize Jon said he could not afford a private therapist, so I guess he decided he could get some help and make some money, a win-win in his eyes. I just wish he and Kate would stop airing their dirty laundry in public because, IMO, it's a ploy to keep themselves relevant.
I do wish the best for Jon, and I hope he is learning from Dr. Jenn. He needs all the help he can get dealing with Kate.
I'm sure there are tapes or other evidence that the conversation actually took place which is why TFW has not come out and publically stated that the conversation in question never happened.
I said this before, and I am certainly not defending Kate or bashing Jon, but he too said their relationship was texting only,no phone calls. So why would he suddenly make 50 of them to Kate? And on TV? I can see him trying the twins' cells, but 50 calls to Kate? Idk, but it seems staged to me. Or exaggerated. JMO.
So why would he suddenly make 50 of them to Kate? And on TV? I can see him trying the twins' cells, but 50 calls to Kate?
He tried @ 50 times to reach his kids, not to reach Kate. Whether he had to go thru TFW each time or if there were other options, is a question, though. As for the 50 calls being on tv - i doubt it. I think they simply filmed one time he happened to have his phone - planned or not, it really doesn't make any difference since the result was the same - he was refused access.
I can see where they'd only text/email when they're all in town, and he's seeing them Tuesdays and every other weekend. (Well, actually I can't. I think he should be able to talk with the kids any time he/they want to.)
When he or the kids are out of town an extended period of time, it would seem that a phone call to/from the kids would be appropriate/understandable, since he's not seeing them on his Tuesday evenings.
Actually, I see nothing wrong with a daily phone call Mon/Wed/Thurs with the kids. It could just be part of their routine. They talk with dad every day at 8pm.
I've been assuming that Liz alluding to "50" phone calls was just an allusion to Jon calling a shitload of times with no response. It could be 50, or 43, or 37 or 81. Who cares? It was too many calls to not respond to as a grown up with responsibilities. And while I'm at it (hoo boy, here we go!), this droning on and on about there being ZERO verbal communication is neither here nor there. My sense is that the vast majority of Jon and Kate's communication is electronic, but not ALL of it. In this case, the case in hand, the only case that's germane to CT, Jon called Kate/the kids, evidently many times, to no avail. (mostly, this goes to that buzzing sound that is sheeple whining)
Yes it's neither here nor there how many calls or why it was a call instead of a text. Obviously, he texts Kate to work out logistics, but when it comes to the children obviously he wants to hear their voices over the phone. Heck maybe he sent a number of texts first asking her to have the kids call him or asking what would be a good time to call, which maybe were ignored, so he had to call. The point being, whether it's one call or 50, he called and was denied access to his children, and there is a witness who saw he was denied access to his children. End of story, deal with it sheeple.
I also love the hypocrisy, since I believe it was my boyfriend Anderson's interview where Kate told him she sits there waiting for the phone call on their visits, implying they are indeed allowed to call her. I remember at least one other occasion where it was mentioned the kids and Kate calling each other, because I distinctly remember our discussion about how it's just one weekend and that absent an emergency she should encourage them to just hang out with daddy and not worry about calling mommy. That's HIS time, not time to be chit chatting with mom all weekend. (Going out of town for two weeks is different).
chefsummer, ITA. It was probably an exaggeration, but if I had an ex call 50x over a few weeks, I would go nuts. I don't understand how Jon and Kate's phone situation works because I thought the twins had their own phones. Do you think they are not allowed to answer calls from their dad? If so, perhaps that could have been a reason to speak directly to Kate, but I still think the fact that cameras were present makes me think they were looking to air any reactions or emotions that resulted.
Has anyone followed this case? It speaks to what Admin said about the courts being tied up with baloney. This kid needs a smackdown, and so does the guy who she's living with, who is doing all the legal stuff and now expecting her dad to pay: http://gma.yahoo.com/rachel-canning-loses-effort-parents-pay-high-school-192643568--abc-news-parenting.html?vp=1
it really doesn't make any difference since the result was the same - he was refused access. ________
And this is the whole point.
I kind of believe Jon-(not about the 50x) but when he say's he calls and he can't talk to his babies.
My former sister-in-law will do his with my nephew all the time.
When she get pissed or mad at my brother. She won't pick up the phone so my nephew can talk to my brother is father. So it can happen also Kate's not denying that it didn't happen same say she did with the child abuse claims.

When my dd was in Kindergarten her best friend's parents got divorced. I went to pick up my dd from a playdate and the dad came in. Apparently he stopped by every evening to help with homework and say goodnight.

That's how I took it, too, that when he communicates with Kate it's via test/email for the most part, but not every single time.
Having actually seen the footage, I didn't think it seemed staged. It seemed like something that just happened to get filmed. As I recall, it didn't show the actual phone call at all. It just showed the aftermath of the phone call....Jon's extreme frustration, and Liz validating that it happens all the time.
I took it as they wanted to show his frustration with being denied access to the kids. The focus wasn't really about the phone call, per se. It was more the bigger picture that look what kind of frustration that ex is causing.
The show is more focused on Farrah than the Gosselin drama, anyway. The show actually seems fairly uninterested in the Gosselin saga. The producers are kind of like, who is they guy again? Why's he here anyway? He's not a celebrity the way the others are, just some everyday guy. Why's he here? We gotta film his issues, huh? Well, ok, let's come up with a story line.
In the "he called/didn't call" debate on Twitter, this one made me snort.
We're All ECJ Anyway@ashymama2·1 hr When will Hailey Glassman come forward to claim she has the texts to prove @kateplusmy8 is telling truth and Jon never called her?
The point being, whether it's one call or 50, he called and was denied access to his children, and there is a witness who saw he was denied access to his children. *********8 If this is true, then I would assume that Jon could use this in court to show that Kate is truly denying him access to his kids.
PJ's momma said... 38 Has anyone followed this case? ****** I'm fascinated with this case. Thus far, I have little sympathy for this entitled young lady. You want to be a grown up? Fine, act like one and that means, pay your own bills! It's like she wants to independent of her parents rules, but not their money. The thought that a parent OWES a child a college education is absurd. That's indentured servitude. Sorry, Missy. You asked to be all grown up, now go do it.
When my dd was in Kindergarten her best friend's parents got divorced. I went to pick up my dd from a playdate and the dad came in. Apparently he stopped by every evening to help with homework and say goodnight. ******* You mean he was still allowed on the property? How civilized!
The show is more focused on Farrah than the Gosselin drama, anyway. The show actually seems fairly uninterested in the Gosselin saga. ***** I agree. For the most part, Liz and Jon's story seems peripheral. Maybe they should have filmed a sex tape before CT , and then like, whoopsy!, it got leaked?
Thanks for all the well wishes, very much appreciated. To everyone that also were having medical and family issues last week when I couldn't post, you are in my thoughts also.
Joy, I think I may just join you and the others in Key West. Hope it's not too late. My Travolified name will be Fleur de lis.. It's our Saints Team logo and also the name that Rachel picked in the move Trouble With Angels (which we discussed here sometime last year). Don't think I can get in a bathing suit right now so the Mumu and crocs will have to do. Might bring my visiting nurse along, he's young and so handsome and I never know when I may need him. Also, I'm willing to share should anyone need some medical attention.
Long story short, have been watching DC Cupcakes on huluplus and wanted to see how Kate was with them when she went down there. All there was was a youtube clip but it linked some other J&K episodes, so I wanted to see the one where they discuss their Will. Of course it could be changed now, but at that time they set it up for the kids to get 50% of their money at graduation of college and the other 50% at AGE 30. 30!! If they don't go to school it's 100% at 30. Geesh. Make them wait long enough. I wonder tho, if that is just in case of J&K death or if that is how their trust is set up? Like they get $$ for college from their trust and if any is left, they get it at 30.
Geez, 30...they could be married several years with several kids by 30. That's a long wait for something they worked for when they were 3.

Actually, kris, my husband and I set up our will similarly. The kids would not get any inheritance until age 30 if they did not complete four years of college. Needless to say, they completed college and are now just waiting for my husband and I to kick the bucket, LOL.

I don't think that would have sat well with her.
Greedy Gosselins said... 162 Winsome said: Was reading the rules for child custody in PA. It spells out exactly what Jon is going through right now, and says to report things like that to the court. Even talks about parental alienation. It says the person breaking the rules will be responsible for the court costs..so Jon doesn't even need money to file his complaints. So, to me, this means that either Jon is not reporting that Kate is depriving him of his kids during custody time, or else the courts are terribly broken there. It's been 7 months since he last saw the one boy..surely the court would have addressed that by now, if it had been reported?
___________________________________________
Good work, winsomeone! I want to like Jon but.....yeah. He's not exactly the sharpest crayon in the box. _________________________ I get it. You both don't like Jon. That's cool. But none of us are privy to what Jon (via his attorney) has presented to the Court. Admin has said she has info from a reliable source that indicates Jon has made many attempts to bring Kate's violation of the court orders to the court's attention, only to have the judge apparently feel that these problems are not egregious enough to warrant giving Jon full custody. We are given to understand that Jon now has 50/50 custody, which is a change from the first custodial order. Perhaps that was partially in response to the fact that Kate wasn't always in compliance - but that would be speculation.
Also, I would like to echo Admin who pointed out that every time you call your attorney, have a meeting with your attorney, or your attorney does any work on your case - it is billed at that attorney's hourly rate. If you have lots of money to spare, then by all means, call your attorney every day and bug the hell out of them. (Be prepared to hear that your attorney "is not available at the moment" after awhile if you make yourself a real pest.) But don't scream when the next bill arrives. Suggesting Jon should be constantly calling his attorney and demanding this, that or the other is not good advice and shows a lack of understanding of the process and the costs involved.
'Numerous' as in how many? See, I'm a fierce mom and I'd LIVE at the judge's courthouse and home if my son's 'dad' did anything CLOSE to what Kate has done to Jon. ***************** And you would probably see the arrival of the local sheriff or police department to escort you off the premises, especially if you camped out outside a judge's home. To boot, you'd probably lessen your chances of prevailing on any family law matters because you'd look unstable and possibly dangerous.
I'm a protective mother myself, yet I'm also rational and understand that while the court system may not always work the way I want, it's the system currently in place. My best chances of prevailing on a family law matter would be hiring the most competent counsel I could afford, listening and taking their advice, and presenting myself to the court in a professional and appropriate manner. Not sitting in the judge's department every day giving him the stink eye. Not invading the privacy of his home by sitting outside and crying foul because he didn't rule the way I wanted. Truly, that will make you memorable to the court but not in a good way.
I wanted to see the one where they discuss their Will. Of course it could be changed now, but at that time they set it up for the kids to get 50% of their money at graduation of college and the other 50% at AGE 30. 30!! If they don't go to school it's 100% at 30. Geesh.

As a mom to a son & a big sister to 2 brothers, it always makes me angry how Kate treats her boys as an afterthought. It's always something special for her girls & then another box of lego's for the boys. __________ Me too. Mom to a wonderful son, and had two wonderful brothers. Boys are not icky. In fact, having a son opened my eyes to just how sweet and amazing boys can be. Loud, yes. Sometimes rowdy in the house, yes. But oh so much fun and deserving of love and attention and being treated as special. If I didn't despise Kate for so many other things, her treatment of those sweet boys alone would be sufficient reason to despise her.
So Jon can't exaggerate and say he called 50 times because if he does he's lying but if TFW exaggerates (hundreds of entries in the not a contest, second printing for not a cookbook because apparently the first run of 500,000 copies sold out, # of inches of snow, well you get the idea) , it's the gospel truth and they all sympathize with her.
@RealZiggyFlo: @Kateplusmy8 @DrJennBerman IMO - I feel wihtout a doubt Berman was unethical whether she's lying 2 cover up or listening without permission
It's been said before and I'll say it again, the sheeple better watch the accusations they're throwing around. I don't think they want the VH1 lawyers descending on them. What's that you say? Free speech when they do it but call in BV and the lawyers if anyone else does it because it's bullying. SMH and LOLing.
Jasmine Jarrdeen here...Damn! I was hoping my name was Allorn so I could join the fun group!
My family & I are going through a very stressful time right now & coming here & reading the humorous posts makes my day. Thank you! ==== Jolie - You are most welcome to join the Allorn clan anytime! We'll set another plate. I love your Travolitified name though. It sounds very romantic.
I hope the stress your family is going through is temporary. This long, cold winter seems to have taken its toll on so many people both physically and emotionally. Sending good thoughts your way : )
Yes it's neither here nor there how many calls or why it was a call instead of a text. Obviously, he texts Kate to work out logistics, but when it comes to the children obviously he wants to hear their voices over the phone. Heck maybe he sent a number of texts first asking her to have the kids call him or asking what would be a good time to call, which maybe were ignored, so he had to call. The point being, whether it's one call or 50, he called and was denied access to his children, and there is a witness who saw he was denied access to his children. End of story, deal with it sheeple.
---------------- sheeplexxxx Truth_Teller201 @DrJennBerman @Kateplusmy8 They both have said they only text each other many, many times.
Are sheeple really this stupid, or are they playing the role of the great pretender? Jon wanted to talk to his children. What is it that is so difficult to understand? His CHILDREN! Maybe he and Kate only do text, but he wasn't texting his children. He wanted to TALK to them.
I guess no matter how much we slap our heads in disbelief over the ignorance and complete lack of thinking ability of these fans, nothing is going to change the fact that they were out to pasture when intelligence was given out, and the more they argue and try to defend Kate while calling the therapist a liar, the more they keep digging that hole deeper.
Why do they continue with this? It would have been forgotten, but they won't let it go, and the more they argue, the more stupid their assertions become. Sheesh!
PJ's momma said... 38 Has anyone followed this case? --------------- I couldn't see the video in that link, but I found another excellent piece on the case here:
There is a long video of the judge's ruling. He is actually very impressive. This was just a preliminary hearing, asking for the parents to pay child support, high-school tuition, and attorney's fees on an "emergency" basis. The judge has ruled against any immediate payment, but the parents have agreed to keep the daughter on their health insurance and not touch funds already set aside for the daughter's college expenses. He is very much in favor of counseling and a negotiated solution.
(Leslie) I haven't read all the comments but what does Travolized(sp?) mean? Just curious.
Also Layla, thanks for ruining my day (LOL) I also fully expect to see a Tups Turn 10 cover on People mag in May." I hope you are wrong but I fear you may be right. I was just thinking a few weeks what possible reason would Kate be on another People magazine in the near future. I came up with nothing but I forgot about the tups turning 10. Maybe People will cancel the idea if they planned it due to the backlash of the twins cover and tv appearances. What, if the cover of the tups on People materalizes, are tv appearances soon to follow that week? We all know that Kate never learns. But we can only hope the tv media has. But I am afraid they haven't and would welcome the tups just because it would be a very popular interview. And the beat goes on, and on, and on.
PJ's momma said... 38 Has anyone followed this case? ****** "I'm fascinated with this case. Thus far, I have little sympathy for this entitled young lady. You want to be a grown up? Fine, act like one and that means, pay your own bills! It's like she wants to independent of her parents rules, but not their money. The thought that a parent OWES a child a college education is absurd. That's indentured servitude. Sorry, Missy. You asked to be all grown up, now go do it."
*****************************************
Me too, I find this case extremely interesting and equally disturbing. It takes "a sense of entitlement" to a whole new level.
I can not fathom an 18 year old who ran away from home suing her parents' because she feels OWED a college education.
I've only read a couple of articles so I'm still sketchy on all the details but it truly boggles the mind that this even made it to a judge.
The last report I read stated that a voice message the young lady left for her mother was submitted into evidence and the judge was appalled at the total lack of respect this girl has for her parents.
Poor TFW must be torn. On one hand, she's thrilled at all the anti-Jon hysteria going on over Twitter. But on the other, hey, these people need to get off Twitter and start crib shopping! She put her order in yesterday! But, maybe like TFW's biggest fan proclaims, they're all communicatin' and coordinatin' in other ways.
Twf's dozen sheeple don't hold a candle to these numbers, but I'm willing to bet that the demographics of these fan bases are much younger than the sheeple.
Tucker's Mom said... 20 ''In two weeks of filming, with Jon living at the CT house in CA, with cameras and crew around 24/7, at some point, Jon will be filmed making phone calls to his children.'' ''....You know why it would possible be a "get" on film? Because his bitch of an ex wife REFUSES to act like a responsible adult and co-parent with Jon, including civilized phone calls, which would and should be de rigueur. Kate has spent YEARS using the fact that they rarely speak, and communicate by text and email as a talking point, trying to garner sympathy for her poor, entitled self.'' ''...But sure, let's throw out the red herring that Dr. Jen's being unprofessional for not being deaf. Make her the scapegoat when she's just standing in the right or wrong place at the right or wrong time....'' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BINGO! Once again, TCFW's fans are twisting themselves halfway to China in order to blame anyone and JON for anything and everything.
Faith Orteez here (Hey! I like it). I'm with TLC Stinks - if, when or ever the truth about Jon calling TFW is necessary, phone records will tell the tail. We, John Q Public, need not know. Both Jon and Kate exaggerate. I wish both sides would just drop it. (Like that'll ever happen). Her "400 million inches" of snow simply translates to "a lot", in her opinion. I see no need to pick on that. My Mom used "upteenth time". I use "bazillion" or "gazillion". It is a personal expression of "a lot". I certainly would not use in the expression in court. Sometimes you need to be precise, other times not so much. My DH wouldn't get far professionally if he presented his drawings to a client, or for permitting referencing a measurement as "as a bunch of inches" but if I ask him how tall something is he sure as heck might say "way tall".
In Milo's world, I guess the only woman/mother that should be respected is Kate. What about respecting Liz/Dr. Berman-they are both women and mothers?
Milo's world is a very frightening/creepy place. If I found myself anywhere near her, I'd detour around it, even if it meant going an extra thousand miles out of my way.
On The Talk today Sheryl Underwood was commenting on Shakira(sp?) wanting 8 or 9 kids. Sheryl said there was nothing wrong with a large family unless you're OctoMom or that other Mom (searches for the name), Kate Gosselin. Neither Mom can handle that many kids. Ouch.
OT Did anyone watch CHOPPED last night? They had Real Authentic Grandmothers on! They were wonderful and the judges were Amanda F., Scott C. and Aaron S. They were stunned how great they cooked. Perfectly seasoned food, they were ranting and raving how great one Gma used the popovers in her entrée. Won't say how, don't want to spoil! They walked to the pantry, one Gma offered to get another one plates b/c she just wanted to help her so she could get everything on the plate. They were just so funny, especially the Gma from Thailand. She was a comedian!
It would be so awesome to invite them all back and do an hour special and have them each cook a meal, taking their time and all sit down and eat it. I would much rather watch that than TCFW on a cooking segment like she did on H&F! I was rooting for each Gma, I didn't want Ted to CHOP anyone! They were great!
Amanda was bawling and the all the guys were tearing up. One Gma has her own restaurant in the house that she grew up in that belonged to her grandmother. The Gma on the show was born in the house in the front room. It is called Grandmother's House and it is only less than an hour away from my hometown. Their personal stories were incredible.
Also, the Gma did not apply to the show or anybody in her family or friends. She thinks that they were going to do the show and googled Gma cooks and her restaurant came up and they called. She was shocked to say the least! I wish they could of all won!
Leslie - There is a website that lets you type in your name (use your posting name) to "Travoltify" it. It started after John Travolta butchered Idina Menzel's name when he introduced her at the Oscars. Here is the link if you want to do it for a laugh.
John Travolta (and his hair piece du jour) presented at the Oscars on Sunday night and made a world-class flub when he introduced Idina Menzel as "Adele Dazeem". "Travoltafying" your name has gone viral, and we're all having a good laugh at our Travoltified screen names are.
You have no idea how much this blog has helped in my recovery. It kept me occupied during my hospital stay. I am a nurse also, so it was hard to be on that side of the bed rail. We want to have control even when its not possible. I only had my iPad with me and have not set it up properly yet to post from it.
Laughter is the best medicine and I know exactly where to find it. Joy, I'm there with you and yes, my nurse would look great in a thong and fit right In with the pool boys. Now, how do I tell he I bought him a ticket to Key West?
Someone posted about how TCFW likes her minions to do her dirty work for her, in her thinking that it gives her "clean hands". Of course. She thinks she can get by with everything with that thinking. Perfect example: the rabid fans tweeting bad things about Jon and other stupid tweets and she retweets them! I am surprised that she has not retweeted the awful ones to Dr. Jenn.
Jon may have not called TCFW 50 times, but it had to be close. I see nothing wrong with CT showing Jon talking on the phone to TCFW as long as we didn't hear her talking. Who cares? CT had every right to air Jon's conversation, but probably when he was calling and texting her, she called her lawyers and they squashed airing her talking. She thrives on drama and making Jon explode. She is mentally ill.
Just think, if TCFW was around 18 and her and 3 of her friends went out one night and she was driving and someone wanted to stop at a 7-11 to get some snacks and she pulled up and she was the only one that stayed in the car. Then a couple of minutes later, she hears a gun shot and her friends come running out carrying a paper sack full of money. They jump in and scream DRIVE!
She takes off and a couple of hours later they are caught by the police. Can you imagine what she is going to tell the local cops? Why, officer, poor little me didn't know they were going to do THAT. Don't you know who I am, AND who I will be? One day really soon, (when I find a shmuck and my master plan can be launched) I will be rich, so rich, richer than my wildest dreams with many babies that will pay my way! You local PD will be under my thumb one day, I promise you that! I wish I had a bodyguard to get me out of here right now. I will one day to carry my purse and dry cleaning! As God as my witness, I will never go poor again!
I know I said my Travoltifed name was Lucas Bandito.
Now, I want to add my middle name.
Lucas Sangria Bandito!
I had never heard of sangrias and they were made in a big gallon jug until I saw it made by Tyler Florence on Food 911 about 8 to 10 years ago. Wow. It looked so good!
Tucker's Mom, Schmemy! I love it. How could anyone dislike a pup nicknamed Schmemy? I've been calling coworkers that today and surprising, have only gotten a few "have you shown up to work drunk?" looks.
Bitchy, I was going to stick with authentic Brit names - in particular British PM's - but when I mentioned Gladstone, Disraeli & Thatcher the response was thumbs down. I really like Owen, actually almost named a kid that.
T, thank you for coming up with my very own Travolta name. I'd change my lanyard at work to Warren Berzy if I was fairly sure the state wouldn't yank my license. They have zero sense of humor ;) At least I can proudly call myself Warren Berzy here! I like Bertie too but my daughter rolled her eyes and told me to get over my British monarchy fetish LOL
NJ, I love Spike for a bully and can see why you keep it for each one. My uncle named all of his labs (male and female) Earl. He said he was getting on in years and he didn't want to forget the dog's name. You should have seen the looks he got at obedience training when he'd yell "Earl! EARL!, come here girl right now!"
Let's hope Milo keeps running her mouth. At least if Dr. Jen files suit we'd get to see Milo in all her crazy glory. Personally, I just want to know if it's male, female, neutered or a figment of Kate's stunted imagination

Will definitely watch for the rerun and dvr it. I loved the episode when they had the "lunch ladies/men" compete. They were fierce and had more cooking chops than the cocky doofuses that think they're all that and a bag of chips!
Tucker's Mom you will love it! TCFW free, grifting free and Ted, ah! Ted! lol
He is the CHOPPER with Heart! Compared to TCFW, she CHOPS anyone, anything, anywhere w/zero remorse!
I must confess, I made up my own Travoltifed name. I thought that was what everyone was doing! I didn't know there was a website you could do this at. I will go there.
I looked up the pizza place where the delivery guy worked, he co-owns it and the pizza place is home of the 36" pizza! You ought to see the box it comes in. The kids would go nuts! If TCFW had a heart, for the tups birthday she could order one like that locally, if anyone had it, buy a several gallons of the Napoleon air filled ice cream, make a big salad, garlic bread with the garlic butter in the foil bags you buy at the deli, get a big silver wash tub or kids plastic pool fill with ice and put all the drinks in it.
The birthday cake: Have a baker make normal sized cakes, 6 in all and let them tell the baker HOW THEY WANT them to be decorated. If Alexis wants a iguana on it, SO BE IT! Get extra regular sheet cakes frosted with different flavors so you won't run out. Give extras left over of what you do not want to the moms instead of the garbage.
If it is warm enough to swim in the pool, let the kids invite who ever they want to come over, HIRE 2 college lifeguard to watch all the kids, balloons, party favors, a nice bag for each child to take home. AND the invitations will say, all presents will be donated to the local hospitals for the sick children.
And write out a check and PAY FOR IT ALL BY YOURSELF, PLEASE! And don't pay for Steve to be there by your side. There is no reason for him to be there. And NO CA'S either.
Gee, now I'm feeling even more left out. I'm still stuck with Bailey Pay-ne. I'd even take Susie Cincinnati's Cunningwham. Can I be an honorary Allorn or Meems? Or both? Pretty please with rumspringa on top?

Ha, Ha, lukebandit. That is funny. I will save you some time. I split your name in two to luke bandit, so you are actually Lee Brazent.
Susie Cincinnati (aka Sami Cunningwham) - I'll ask the other Meems if we can make you an honorary Meem if you'd like. Sami C. Meem!
********
Thanks, I'd appreciate that. Anything is better than being known as a Cunningwham. What nickname would you be called..."Whammie?"
"Milo's world is a very frightening/creepy place. If I found myself anywhere near her, I'd detour around it, even if it meant going an extra thousand miles out of my way."
********
Absolutely, but you know, I'd pay a nice admissions price to be there if Milo and Kate ever meet face to face. Pictures, lots of pictures, and rolls of paper towels to wipe up the slobber!

I co starred in the movie before I got the middle name Sangria! After all the rooting, tooting, and dag nabbed shooting, we all celebrated with gallons of Sangria that a local saloon owner made and his name was Bottomus Uppsz!
Admin: I put your name, Admin to get Travoltified! And your name is:
AYDEN!
Is that not ironic? I know that it is not the correct spelling, but oh, so close!!
TCFW is now hitting her speed dial to her lawyers to say...
Now, how do I tell he I bought him a ticket to Key West?
((((((((((
You don't. You just pack his thong in his carry-on, get him liquored up on some Jack Daniels, and lead him by the nose if no other body part is available at the time. That should do it.
Sorry, I forgot to mention that the pizza delivery guy I was talking about was the one from the Oscars!
Frito Bandito? I wished! I LOVE Frito's Corn Chips!
SusieinCincinnati Cunningwham? I first thought that was Cunningham from Cincinnati. You could be Siissy Cunningham, Richie Cunningham's long lost sister, instead of Chuck Cunningham! lol
Call me Crazy: funny. Lee Brazent. Lee is the middle name of one of my ds!
Lynne in RI: Luke Bruwn? I hope I am not related to Cody Bruwn of the Sister Wives! lol
When I post on TV without pity about Sister Wives, I have called him from the beginning, Korky Brown. He is a certifiable nutcase!
I tried out the Travoltifier and got "Solomon" for "Silimom". Then I switched to "Sili Mom" because I wanted to have a last name and I got "Sami Meems".
Kate Gosselin@Kateplusmy8·21 mins Day just flew by!Speaking of flying,just finished sewing this 'costume' 4 my lil bluebird in sch program! #signingout pic.twitter.com/mpMF7wu4dr
&&&&&&&&
Oh, please. You hot glued the eyes/eyebrows on and only the black beak was sewn...and with a light colored thread, by the looks of it.
It's just another useless tidbit of info that your cult-like followers can ooh and ahh over to boost your ego. That's really the purpose, now isn't it?
Oh, big whoop1 kate sewed attached some felt to a kids hat for her kid school play. Her devoted fans are praising her, sewing ability. I've been sewing for at least 50 years. I've sew: clothes, made costumes for Sci-fi conventions, curtains, made a quilt, and knitted a 22 ft long Doctor Who scarf. I do craft stuff & garden. Welcome to being mediocre Kate, anyone can hot glue stuff to a hat. Your nothing special. I laugh at the idiots who say to Kate, your such a role model & I wish I could be half the person you are. I hope that woman husband runs for the hills or to a divorce lawyer soon. If her idiot fans aspire to be like Kate, they will clean out the husband and throw him under the bus, Kate did. LOLOLOL
LOL, some funny names, have to go see what mine is! Tomorrow Terry and Bindi Irwin are in town, on both ABC in the morning, then on The View. Wonder if tfw will be getting together with them.
I travoltified my real name and it was disappointing. It changed one letter in my last name and turned my first name into a boy's name. Last time I checked I was still a girl. So sad.
I'm having way too much fun with this Travoltafying stuff. Since my name is three words, I decided to do variations of it and this is what it came up with.
I would not be surprised if Kate & kids, went to NYC to visit Terry & Bindi Irwin, on friday or Terry & Bindi went to their house in PA, on friday and stayed all weekend. Kates Kids have their school play thursday and then they are off for almost 2 weeks for spring break. Cause you know Kate & Terry are 2 of a kind, BBF. Unless people had watched their show, most people will say who is Terry & Bindi Irwin? They may be known in Aussie, but not too much here.

No worries, Bitchy Pants. You can be Bailey P. Meems. We welcome you to the clan with open arms! I really meem that!! (OK. Sorry. I'm starting to scare myself now.)
It is surprisingly hysterical and I don't know why. I guess it's the little things for me. I've giggled like a school girl at some of these names. And then Luke just making up her own name, lol. I guess I picture each of us being introduced by Travolta before we sing or win an award, and having our realitytvkids screen names flubbed that badly as we make "whaaa?" faces, and it just makes me laugh.
When I first tried it, I put in my name as "Kate is a Twit"(4 words) and it came up "Kobe Hisckses". I then tried it as a first and last name, "Kateis Atwit", and it came up "Kurtis Allorn".
Auntie Ann--I am honored to join you as a member of the esteemed Allorn family.
Lynne took your advice and we leave any minute now for Key West. Just have to throw a few more things in suitcase. Must bring my KG Halloween wig, my good bra, some chewing gum and I'm going to rent one of those cute little scooters with the basket on it. Going to add a horn that makes a loud funky sound and yells in a TFW/WOS voice "move out the way, don't you know who I am?"
Thanks Joy for the invite, having lots of fun with this virtual trip. Once again, saved from the pain of dressing changes and range of motion exercise to keep my leg healthy.
I never get enough of this blog. Been browsing around the various JK8 sites since 2008 and so glad I ended up here. Thanks to Admin and everyone that is making all this healing a lot easier.
Been having some weird dreams since surgery. OMG, I know one dream or nightmare that would send me into cardiac arrest and that would be waking up in the hospital with WOS standing over me in a nursing uniform, chomping on gum. Introduces herself, "my name is Kate and I'm your nurse tonight, turns and starts to leave the room but first places the call light totally out of my reach.
Kate's fans are singing her praises for her "sewing" project as if she is Betsy Ross incarnated.
I took a look at it and it's similar to something my 7 year old granddaughter made at school!! Plus my granddaughter's stitches were a lot straighter than Kate's, and she used the correctly colored thread to match the fabric.
Admin, it is the little things, simple things that makes us laugh more than things that are really funny.
The hat that TCFW made was cute, BUT, she could of bought nicer feathers for the hat. I wonder if she went to all that trouble for Tup Boy C? If it was for him. I sent her a tweet that she could get a black sharpie and color over the 8 yes, 8 little stiches she sewed on the beak! I counted them.
I made a costume when my ds was 6 for school and it had to be what they wanted to be when they grew up. DS wanted to be a fireman. Well, living paycheck to paycheck, I still went all out and dressed him up, very frugally. He wore his blue jeans, boots, a T-shirt, his suspenders, and I bought him a 1 dollar Fireman's hat and I thought he needs something else. I got a 2 liter coke bottle and went out side and got the cheap water hose sprayer and took it off the water hose and it fit perfectly on the bottle. Bought a 1 dollar can of red spray paint and sprayed it. Put the sprayer back on. Made a label for the bottle that said A___ Fire Department.
He was thrilled! I wish I would of gotten a plastic tool belt with tools and a jump rope for a few extra dollars and attached them to his jeans. What DS just had on his teacher was thrilled.
Lifetime Movie Network is airing both parts of the Betty Broderick (Travolaterized: Brody Bailerey) movie this Tuesday.
Little tidbit for me, the opening scene in part 1 was filmed on a soccer field in a park that I frequent. It looks almost exactly the same even thought it's kind of an old movie. It's been awhile since we've had a viewing party, maybe it's about time! If you don't get LMN, I believe it's also on youtube.
I'm like you, getofftwitter, sew, garden and cook like crazy, from dance and skating costumes, costumes for school plays, quilts, fancy dresses for proms, lots without any patterns as well. Pft, you got NOTHING on us, kreider, NOTHING!

THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING! Kate doesnt LIE, she Travoltifies everything! Therefore, one tree down becomes 40, a purse with a leash in it for Steve becomes a purse full of bills, etc! She has been doing it for over a decade! Hey, maybe she can sue...
I had a "sign of the times" conversation with my kindergarten age grandson yesterday. I can't even remember what we were talking about when he told me that if a bad guy tries to steal the kids in his school, the school goes into lockdown and they have to hide in the closet. I'm assuming they must have had a drill yesterday. Well, we all know why the schools are having lockdown drills and I hate the thought of my grandson and his classmates huddled together frightened in a closet but the alternative could be much worse. I'm glad they're having these drills but I hate that they have to have these drills. If you know what I mean.
chefsummer...It didn't even dawn on me that Summer was your name. My grandaughter has the same name as you. Love that name!
I'm Usually one who ends the day on this blog...today I am one of the ones starting it...why... got a visit from the friendly fire department... carbon monoxide detector went off. Thankfully it was a false alarm.
So grateful we have Emergency Personnel who can come and check to be certain we are safe and keep us from harm!!
But, why is it, these alarms always seem to go off in the middle of the night!?
Am going to head into work a bit early and shock everyone on coffee row. I usually dont arrive before starting time :)
Still no results on the kidlets MRI tests...soon I hope..soon!
Have a great day everyone. We got 5 cms of snow yesterday and another 10 to come today!

It gets the attention I need, demand and deserve ;)
If that's the best Kate could do for the costume, with uneven circles and stitching, fine. But why post it- does she really think it's praiseworthy? Looks like she spent 10 minutes, did not bother to trace circles to make them even or care about the sewing.She who cuts hundreds of circles for her 'famous' Easter Bunny Munny. I think she doesn't care- just wants praise for doing what all mothers/caregivers do.
Bindi Irwin and her brother and mother were on GMA. They are doing some deal with Seaworld. The little brother also now has a series of books, tv show, etc. Wonder if Kate even knows they are in the US? Bet she is a little green with envy. Bindi and her brother are kind of over the top enthusiastic in the interview. This is probably how Kate wanted her twins to be on the Today Show.
I'm a Cunningwham on my father's side of the family. We have been banned from previous family reunions because we're a bit wackadoodle and have a tendency to partake of too much rumspringa but I will be attending this year. Look forward to seeing you there.
Saw TCFW's twit pic of the hat. It's cute but no better than what us medicore moms have done. My hats off to prairiemary and getofftwitter with regard to sewing. I can hand sew but have never learned machine sewing. However, I am the queen of using Stitch Witchery bonding tape and often times make something without hand sewing or bonding tape. I just made curtain panels for my dining room using paint drop cloths (4' x 15', no sewing just used pinking shears and cut them in half) and a stencil. I read about a product called Unique Stitch, sewing with a tube, on a diy/design blog so I went and bought some and I'm making new throw pillow covers today. However it would be so much easier if I learned how to sew on a machine.
Is Terri an idiot? How typical to align herself with Sea World when they are facing one of the biggest PR disasters in the history of zoos. La-la nothing to see here isn't Sea World wonderful?
She really is not the sharpest tool in the shed. Now she's going to have people protecting the Australia Zoo TOO. Real smart.
And how about Sea World taking up with them. Sounds like desperation to me.
I really miss Steve Irwin. It sounds like he was the brains behind the operation.
When I first tried it, I put in my name as "Kate is a Twit"(4 words) and it came up "Kobe Hisckses". I then tried it as a first and last name, "Kateis Atwit", and it came up "Kurtis Allorn".
Auntie Ann--I am honored to join you as a member of the esteemed Allorn family.
====
Wonderful! We're honored to have you. We're expanding. Apparently our Allorn ancestors were an amorous lot. lol.
I'll put a leaf in the dining room table and set another plate beside Cousin Teddy and across from Monty (he tends to grope).
Don't tell Kate but this morning on The Today Show, the interview couch was filled with a young family who had triplets, then twins, in one year. 5 adorable babies. I did not hear the back story, but when asked how they do it averaging 3 hours of sleep a night, the response was that they are extremely grateful for family close by and a supportive church. Doubt they plan to dump either of them next year.
Jasmine Jarrdeen here...Damn! I was hoping my name was Allorn so I could join the fun group!
My family & I are going through a very stressful time right now & coming here & reading the humorous posts makes my day. Thank you! ==== Jolie - You are most welcome to join the Allorn clan anytime! We'll set another plate. I love your Travolitified name though. It sounds very romantic.
I hope the stress your family is going through is temporary. This long, cold winter seems to have taken its toll on so many people both physically and emotionally. Sending good thoughts your way : ) ***************************************
Thank you Auntie, I wish it was only temporary.
I hope your husband is recovering from his stroke. Your great sense of humour must be a big help to both of you during this time.
Speaking of your humour, I woke up last night giggling, remembering your remark about sticking to the counter because you weren't wearing your unnner wears!
Naughty But Nice Rob has a new post on his blog about Jon. Apparently, Jon called into the show The Gossip Table and talked about his rant about Kate.
"Jon Gosselin just called his ex-wife, Kate, a f**king bitch, now he is telling THE GOSSIP TABLE why!
“No it wasn’t staged (when I called her an f-ing B). She did hang up on me, but I shouldn’t have verbalized the F***ing bitch thing. I was so frustrated that I let it fly. No she hasn’t said anything to me about it, it’s been business as usual, but everyone says she watches the show.”
I checked The Gossip Table website, and they don't have a video of this conversation posted. I wonder if they'll post it later today or tomorrow.
I've been really sick since yesterday (Fibromyalgia) so in an effort to distract myself from the pain, I ran the screen names of my husband, and my best friend through the Travoltafyer the results are sort of funny.
Rapid Robert = Raymond Reynzo Akhenaten=Austen Allorn
I'm still stuck with Amelie Cloirk but I may crash the Allorn family reunion with Austen.
Lifetime Movie Network is airing both parts of the Betty Broderick (Travolaterized: Brody Bailerey) movie this Tuesday. ****** I thought Meredeth Baxter did an amazing job in this role, especially when I think of her portraying the middle class mother in Family Ties.
Luke Bandit said: I got a 2 liter coke bottle and went out side and got the cheap water hose sprayer and took it off the water hose and it fit perfectly on the bottle. Bought a 1 dollar can of red spray paint and sprayed it. Put the sprayer back on. Made a label for the bottle that said A___ Fire Department. He was thrilled. ****** Wow, that's a great story :) Frugal and creative and best of all, made your son's day.
pic.twitter.com/mpMF7wu4dr 88888 I sure hope that didn't take her all day. That would be a beginner craft project that one might do with young kids (like I used to do when my son was preschool age). Cut out the felt circles, break out the glue sticks, and help the kiddos glue the felt circles then the "eyes" to a knit cap. It does not appear any sewing was necessary.
Speaking of simple craft projects to do with young kids - I still break out a Christmas decoration that my son made in preschool, every year. It's a piece of wood (round branch), about one foot tall. Parents were asked to send an old clean sock to school. The sock toe was cut off, then tied with a red ribbon. It turned into a cap for the piece of wood. They painted the wood white, glued on eyes, nose and mouth, and it's a little snowy elf.
That's what Kate's cap reminds me of. Beginner craft project for 4-year olds. Glad to know she isn't completely helpless.
I seem to remember TFW said she and Terri Irwin e-mail "a lot" and plan to "reconnect". I wonder if she even knew the Irwin family were in the U.S. I'll bet she is frantically attempting to "reconnect" now in the hope of inserting herself into an interview or two with Terri - birds of a feather and all that.
I know. She claims the day flew by because she SO busy and all she has to show for it is that crumby cap?
These self-congratulatory tweets she sends about the smallest achievements is such a quirky trait in TFW. I'd be embarrassed with the job she did.
-----------
She took a blue cap, cut out felt circles, bought the eyes at the craft store and glued and then stitched a black felt beak on it. I can't sew a lick, have problems with buttons), but even I could do that. I'd be embarrassed to death to tweet a picture of that.
I got a little of the back story while watching Hoda and Kathie Lee this morning. The couple were in the process of adopting the triplets when they found out they were expecting a baby. Then they found out they were expecting twins. The triplets are now 10 months and the twins are 10 weeks. From what H&KL said the adoption of the triplets was not a smooth process as the birth mother at one point had decided to keep the babies.
MARIE @MY_2BCOLLIES 15h @Kateplusmy8 That's adorable! Looks like you did a pretty darn good job of sewing it together. Did U have a pattern or did U make your own?

LOL....I think we can guess what the next article on ROL will be. "Sources close to Kate" (aka Milo) deny she ever hung up on Jon. Just wait.... -------------------------
One of the sheeple is spinning it that since Jon said Kate hung up on him, no conversation took place, and Dr. Jenn lied!
Of course, the sheeple mind can't comprehend that Kate may have hung up on Jon in the middle of a conversation. In one of the previews, Jon was shown as saying "I need to talk to my kids", so apparently there was a conversation.
So if the sheeple believe that Kate hung up on Jon, are they admitting now that there was an actual phone call between Kate and Jon?

Sorry, ladies, I have to disagree. IMO Steve Irwin teased the crap out of any critters he came across. All for the cameras. I watch gorgeous documentaries on nature and its inhabitants all the time. It is possible to film and educate without ripping these creatures out of their homes and stressing them out like I saw Steve Irwin do.
But...Kate DID sew the eyes onto the hat. Enlarge the picture and you can see the stitches. She used the right color thread and it's almost invisible. If only she has switched to black for the beak.

A pattern? Really? Do you think the sheep are trying to pull the wool over our eyes? (oh that's bad, sorry).
That cap looks like a little child did it. Where's iStock photos when you need them, huh Kate?
PJ -- I'm glad to see that someone else has the same opinion about Steve Irwin as I do. He seems to have acquired a veneer of sainthood since his death. I never found his antics amusing or educational. He was a pure showman, and I don't think he really gave a damn about the animals whose habitats he invaded. It eventually got him killed. Sting rays are usually pretty gentle creatures and don't attack unless they feel threatened. Slinking back to my corner now.
I hated Steve Irwin's techniques too and always did, I don't even believe in zoos much less their disgusting circus, but I still think he was the brains behind the operation and that even if he liked Seaworld he wouldn't have been so stupid as to align himself with them during one of the biggest marine PR crisis in all of modern history.
Paula said... 182 Kate is a Twit....179....One of the sheeple is spinning it that since Jon said Kate hung up on him, no conversation took place, and Dr. Jenn lied!
&&&&&&&&&&&&
I'm confused, as usual. Yesterday they were saying that Jon and Kate only text, so no phone call took place and Dr. Jenn is a liar. Now they are saying that he might have called, but didn't talk to her?
Sadly, because after all Bindi Irwin is only 15, there js a lot of negative, and nasty, backlash surfacing for this not well thought out Sea World plan. Terri Irwin and her pal KG are really cut out of the same narcissistic cloth. Did Terri, or her people, not think this out, after all the negative publicity Sea World is currently embroiled in. Oh, and did Terri not tell Kate she was coming from Down Under. Thought they were bff's.
I know nothing about narcissists...never knew one, never had one in the family, but I have a question. Kate tweeted the picture of the hat that couldn't have taken anyone longer than an hour (at most) to make, and it looks like a lower school student made it. She couldn't even cut the eyes in perfect circles. Does a narcissist believe that everything they do is amazing, wonderful, and deserves applause? Can't a narcissist see such a thing as it really is? It's just really odd that someone would tweet a photo of something that looks this bad.
No way a 15 year old is emotionally equipped to deal with a PR crisis of this magnitude. I can't believe their first and last answer wasn't stay out of it. What were they thinking? She's 15!

Yup, cut from the same cloth, but I liken Terri far more to Joe Jackson. I think the Irwin boy has his own TV series now, too.
Like others here, I thought TFW would tweet something to GMA today, but she's apparently smart enough --or blissfully unaware of news events--to stay well beyond the reach of the SeaWorld-Irwin debacle.

Jon has taken numerous complaints about Kate to the courts, I know this for a fact.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
No, it did not come from Jon, Melanie. I do not know who leaked it or who the sheeple can blame for the leak, it could have been anyone, but I read the briefs from Blank Rome. They were appalling.
ADMIN: Blank Rome was around 2010-11, yes? I suspect what many of us are wondering is whether Jon has returned to court about custody-related matters since that publicly contentious time period. And if so, is it a sustained effort? As in: As often as has proved necessary for the kids' well-being, and to protect his own rights, as their father.
Can you address this question? In general terms, if privacy concerns preclude you from providing specific details?
OMG..someone is really insisting a Public Defender can be used in a divorce or custody case or any other civil case for that matter? Really, before you type such nonsense...Google is your friend....
Milo sure is bullying Dr. Jenn...where is Bullyville when you need him???
And yes, I called every day until our matter was settled. On my coffee breaks and sometimes during lunch I would pay him a visit.
--------------
Well, yes, when you're not writing a check every month you can do this, but gosh, if you're paying out of pocket, you don't call every day or pay for a visit, especially not at $400 an hour. The clock is ticking on a phone call, and when you get the bill you just about fall over, not having realized exactly how much time you spent on the phone with the attorney.You wait for his phone calls, and if he has something to report, if he/she is a good attorney you will be informed about what is happening in your case. I can't imagine calling my attorney every day or making a regular trip to see him. Maybe some attorneys like that, but it could also have the reverse effect and they might not look forward to so many phone calls because it makes them look like they are not doing their job.
'Numerous' as in how many? See, I'm a fierce mom and I'd LIVE at the judge's courthouse and home if my son's 'dad' did anything CLOSE to what Kate has done to Jon.
---------------
And you'd end up really pi$$ing off the judge to the point that he'd throw up his hands, get sick and tired of you and depending on the judge, you'd put your case in jeopardy because he'd see you as a contentious person who is not letting the system work.

@Truth_Teller201 I just don't believe Kate was on that call...& another thing...how rude 2easedrop on a private ph conversation! #Therapist?
Well, Milo, geez...you and Kate are bosom buddies. Why not just ask her instead of speculating and pestering the therapist about it? Wait. Didn't she just tweet Kate to answer the question about smoking, and Kate never answered? lol!
Easedrop? I think she means eavesdrop!
Milo and company had better watch what they're saying to Dr. Jen. I'd hate to see her sick the network's lawyers on them. Who am I kidding? I'd love to see something like that happen. They seem to be ganging up and bullying Dr. Jen. Why aren't BV and his minions stepping in to help?
Yes, we get it. Jon and TFW only text each other HOWEVER he was calling to TALK TO HIS KIDS and TFW happened to pick up the phone. He didn't call her he called his kids and he never said that he only texts with his kids.
I hope that things look up for those of you having troubles or health issues.
I remember when CT was just starting they showed clips of upcoming episodes and in one it actually showed Jon saying something like "I need to talk to my kids" and that never aired. I guarantee you Kate saw that clip and got her attorneys to stop them from airing any part where she was involved in conversation. They would have had to not air because they didn't have a signed release from her allowing it. Gosh she's such a Biotch, and now she plants story on ROL that the conversation never happened.

Wow! Nice rant! :) I couldn't agree with you more!! I'm old enough to have lost my naivete and idealism long ago (two reasons I do not vote anymore). We, the people, are powerless. I zip my lips when I see the comments about Jon should go to court, etc. As you said he's been numerous times. You've listed several reasons why going to court isn't the end-all to Jon's problems. I firmly believe there is NO end-all to Jon's problems.
*********
I hope that Jon has and will continue to develop salvage strategies for dealing with raising his children with Kate until they are 18.
There will be no happy ending for this co-parenting story. It's safe to say, at this point, that is a foregone conclusion.
What's left is how Jon handles the things he can change, affect and use to his advantage.
And of course, the wisdom to know the difference and just let go.
I know I don't like some of Jon's behaviors, CT included, but years of observing him and just about every single personal testimonial supports the fact that he's a good person and parent.
I just can't imagine the toll this is taking on him. Years of dealing with a full blown narc can and will burn the every living heck of of your adrenal system and can leave you so imbalanced that you don't function anywhere near optimally.
Hopefully, Jon will become enabled enough to take back his power and his health, for his kids' sakes.
Millicent,

SIC not sick! Damn you auto correct.
I'm sure there are tapes or other evidence that the conversation actually took place which is why TFW has not come out and publically stated that the conversation in question never happened. All Jon would have had to have done was hold the phone away from his ear and anyone within a 10 mile radius could have heard the banshee screaming at him. No "easedroping" required Milo.

I cannot stand how ROL has become the "go-to" rag when people want to get their name in celeb news. So basing on an anonymous source, they print whatever, true or not. Frankly, I am sick and tired of this tit for tat going on with Kate and Jon. The door was opened, on this debate as to whether there was or was not a genuine phone call, by CT, Jon and Dr. Jen. It's believable, knowing Kate's vindictiveness, that she is incredibly rude to Jon and monitors his ability to speak to his kids. I can't help but feel Jon was prompted by CT producers to make the call just to see what would happen so they could air it. If so, bad judgment on Jon's part. CT and Dr. Jen are well aware of the animosity between Jon and Kate and that scene was planted for drama. If I were Kate, I'd be pissed off too. Gee, I can't believe I am sort of defending her, but Jon signed up for this crapola. Of course, I am basing this on what has been reported here about the scene, but it's all a bunch of bull by both parents. Kate has not been able to completely eliminate Jon from the kids lives like the others, so for this I do admire Jon for sticking to his guns, even if he resorts to making money based on his "fame".
ITA she is working the phones to get a People cover for the tups' birthday. Actually, I would not be surprised there is a cover for her turning 39 the end of March. It's all about her anyway and she is proud of her skinny body and botoxed face which People will airbrush much to her delight. Oh well. As long as Katie Coyne remains fixated on Kate, I guess we will be faced with her mug on an issue. Blah!
No "easedroping" required Milo.

Haha . . . Milo needs to sit down and give her mind a rest.

ITA, Tucker's mom. Jon will have to deal with Kate until all the kids turn 18. Gee, I hope this does not mean they will still be in the tabloids for eight more years.
CT and Dr. Jen are well aware of the animosity between Jon and Kate and that scene was planted for drama.

This calls into question the doctor's credibility. But I guess to be a therapist on a reality show, maybe you don't have to be professional and credible? I don't know. Seems detrimental to who you are supposedly treating.
Marie
Easedrop, eh? Where's Mrs. Malaprop when you need her!
Milo Travoltified is Matteo. She sounds so exotic!
Marie I didn't use my real name for Travoltified I used Administrator Reality T.V. Kids.
If the shoe were on the other foot and this was Kate's therapist defending Kate, and the haters started contacting her saying it was inappropriate for her to take sides and that she was lying, can you imagine the conniption the sheeple would have? What am I saying, Kate will never go to therapy.
As far as texting, my God they take it so darn literally. A unique exception came up in that Jon was out of town on business. While he normally just texts, he had to call that time so he could speak with the kids. Perfectly logical and reasonable. They're like little kids who get upset when you deviate from the plan that they had been told and wrapped their minds around and can't switch gears as easily as more mature kids and adults can. Sheeple, good grief.
OT here, but I get such a kick out of watching TFW's book bomb. So...in February, Novelrank shows a total of 67 copies of LIITm sold. Yeah, 67. In a month. There were 46 in the US, 5 in the UK, and 6 in Canada, plus 10 Kindle. Grand total after more than 11 months is 1,595 copies, which includes US, foreigh, and Kindle sales. Double that for sales from other sources, and she may have sold a little over 3,000 copies. Now, if that isn't evidence of her lack of popularity, I don't know what is.
I also fully expect to see a Tups Turn 10 cover on People mag in May. People seems to have taken on the burden of supporting TFW now that her media career is over. Suckers.
Maybe some attorneys like that, but it could also have the reverse effect and they might not look forward to so many phone calls because it makes them look like they are not doing their job.
&&&
Yes. Few attorneys enjoy a constant barrage of phone calls from the same client. Frivolous phone calls every day also prevent an attorney from hunkering down and working up their cases. You can't work up a case when you have a phone stuck to your ear or a client interrupting you over their lunch or break all the time. I work through my lunch almost every single day just to keep up.
Public defenders usually have huge case loads. If every client called every day and stopped by for lunch, they'd never get anything done. People complain that their attorneys are not greasing the wheels. They never consider maybe that's because they're on the phone all the time with people who insist on calling every day even when nothing new has developed. An attorney is ethically obligated to keep clients apprised of significant developments in the case. There are rarely developments every day or even every week. An attorney is not obligated to talk to you every day if nothing significant is going on. Greedy's attorney sounds very patient and kind. I hope he had time for his other cases. It does depend on your attorney. Some need more prodding than others. But poking and pestering them every day really isn't going to help you much more than a client who makes a short and reasonable phone call every week or every two weeks to check in.

In two weeks of filming, with Jon living at the CT house in CA, with cameras and crew around 24/7, at some point, Jon will be filmed making phone calls to his children.
It's not like they said, "hey, Jon, why don't you call one of your ex girlfriends, you know, like Hailey Glassmen?"
Why would Jon be calling Hailey, or Kate 2.0? He wouldn't. He would, however, be calling his kids- many times.
You know why it would possible be a "get" on film? Because his bitch of an ex wife REFUSES to act like a responsible adult and co-parent with Jon, including civilized phone calls, which would and should be de rigueur.
Kate has spent YEARS using the fact that they rarely speak, and communicate by text and email as a talking point, trying to garner sympathy for her poor, entitled self.
Think about it. Why would a routine phone call, checking in on the kids, be any big deal?
Because of the level of sickness and dysfunction that has enveloped this embattled couple.
But sure, let's throw out the red herring that Dr. Jen's being unprofessional for not being deaf. Make her the scapegoat when she's just standing in the right or wrong place at the right or wrong time.
Oh, and if Milo wants to blame Dr. Jenn for easedropping, then isn't she saying that Kate actually WAS on the other end of the phone, and that Jon and Kate DO NOT strictly communicate electronically?
I just love when Milo gets hoisted by her own petard.
Dr. Jenn, to her credit, immediately understood that the bulk of Jon's issues relate to his unresolved issues with Kate. One of those issues, she immediately understood, was the animosity for them.
I would submit that it would be unprofessional of her to NOT observe some of his interactions with Kate. She needed to do that to understand exactly what was going on between them and to help give him feedback to attempt to make it better. She has every right to do that. She doesn't need to ask Kate or tell Kate that she is standing right there. She wasn't being a busybody or trying to satisfy her own morbid curiosity. She was trying to help Jon with one of his biggest problems--dealing with the parental alienator on the other line. And I respect her for trying.

How mature. This just shows how defiant TFW is. My ex used to really emotionally abuse me, coldly and calculatedly, then when I would finally blow up he would say "see you're crazy". That's what these abusers do.
Jon has a family court judge who apparently has shown no interest in making Kate comply with the existing custody order, even though he has filed numerous complaints. Knowing this, Jon then announces on national TV that he will sue for full custody of the younger six. Now, how does this make any sense at all? Does he actually think this will happen, or is he just talking to talk?
Oh, I see Blank Rome is a law firm. Oh, and I hope Milo's bullying results in CT showing the full clip of the phone conversation including captions for what TFW is saying. Or would that be illegal?
Signed, Lyall.
Wait, shouldn't that be TFW's Travoltified name? Seriously that's what I got for localyocul
I was at my aunt's last night helping her organize her tax stuff and couldn't believe it, but she's a Teen Mom 2 watcher. I'm not familiar with the show, but was amazed that these young girls manage to co-parent with their exes far better than an almost 40 year old woman. One girl's ex was having a baby with another woman, yet he got to come into her home for their daughter's 4th birthday. Another girl who is now remarried got together with her ex and his new spouse to discuss health issues with their daughter.
Pretty pathetic that girls 20 years younger than you can put their own feelings aside for the sake of their children and you can't.
Since I haven't watched the show and haven't watched Dr. Jenn, I may not really know what I am talking about but I am just skeptical about these therapists on TV (ex. Dr. Phil). Bottom line, therapy should not be for the public consumption, IMO. These therapists on TV are being paid and it's in their interest to drum up the ratings. I guess I question just how much good they are able to do for a person within the confines of a limited TV show airing who may sincerely need long term help. Jon may need years of help. Will Dr. Jenn meet him after the show ends to continue therapy? Offer him reduced rates? Does she just write off these people and move on to the next group of guests?
I realize Jon said he could not afford a private therapist, so I guess he decided he could get some help and make some money, a win-win in his eyes. I just wish he and Kate would stop airing their dirty laundry in public because, IMO, it's a ploy to keep themselves relevant.
I do wish the best for Jon, and I hope he is learning from Dr. Jenn. He needs all the help he can get dealing with Kate.
I'm sure there are tapes or other evidence that the conversation actually took place which is why TFW has not come out and publically stated that the conversation in question never happened.
**********************************************************************
Kate always gets others to do her dirty work. This way she believes it gives her "clean hands".
I said this before, and I am certainly not defending Kate or bashing Jon, but he too said their relationship was texting only,no phone calls. So why would he suddenly make 50 of them to Kate? And on TV? I can see him trying the twins' cells, but 50 calls to Kate? Idk, but it seems staged to me. Or exaggerated. JMO.
Jon said on CS that he's going to sue/fight for custody for the kids.
I think Jon was pissed and many people say on thing when they mean another thing.
I can say I called you 100x when in reality I only called 2x or 3x. Maybe he was exaggerated cause he was angry with Kate.
LOL it's like when parents say I told you do something a hundred times and your kids is like no you said it one or twice.
I remember on the show for some reason Jon always used '18' as the number, like "I told you 18 times" or one of the kids "did this 18 times." etc
Marie - I used my screen name to become Travoltified...Niall
I can't wait until Saturday Night Live does a sketch on that. Poor John, but I still love Saturday Night Fever and Grease.
So why would he suddenly make 50 of them to Kate? And on TV? I can see him trying the twins' cells, but 50 calls to Kate?
He tried @ 50 times to reach his kids, not to reach Kate. Whether he had to go thru TFW each time or if there were other options, is a question, though. As for the 50 calls being on tv - i doubt it. I think they simply filmed one time he happened to have his phone - planned or not, it really doesn't make any difference since the result was the same - he was refused access.
I can see where they'd only text/email when they're all in town, and he's seeing them Tuesdays and every other weekend. (Well, actually I can't. I think he should be able to talk with the kids any time he/they want to.)
When he or the kids are out of town an extended period of time, it would seem that a phone call to/from the kids would be appropriate/understandable, since he's not seeing them on his Tuesday evenings.
Actually, I see nothing wrong with a daily phone call Mon/Wed/Thurs with the kids. It could just be part of their routine. They talk with dad every day at 8pm.
I've been assuming that Liz alluding to "50" phone calls was just an allusion to Jon calling a shitload of times with no response.
It could be 50, or 43, or 37 or 81. Who cares?
It was too many calls to not respond to as a grown up with responsibilities.
And while I'm at it (hoo boy, here we go!), this droning on and on about there being ZERO verbal communication is neither here nor there.
My sense is that the vast majority of Jon and Kate's communication is electronic, but not ALL of it.
In this case, the case in hand, the only case that's germane to CT, Jon called Kate/the kids, evidently many times, to no avail.
(mostly, this goes to that buzzing sound that is sheeple whining)
Yes it's neither here nor there how many calls or why it was a call instead of a text. Obviously, he texts Kate to work out logistics, but when it comes to the children obviously he wants to hear their voices over the phone. Heck maybe he sent a number of texts first asking her to have the kids call him or asking what would be a good time to call, which maybe were ignored, so he had to call. The point being, whether it's one call or 50, he called and was denied access to his children, and there is a witness who saw he was denied access to his children. End of story, deal with it sheeple.
I also love the hypocrisy, since I believe it was my boyfriend Anderson's interview where Kate told him she sits there waiting for the phone call on their visits, implying they are indeed allowed to call her. I remember at least one other occasion where it was mentioned the kids and Kate calling each other, because I distinctly remember our discussion about how it's just one weekend and that absent an emergency she should encourage them to just hang out with daddy and not worry about calling mommy. That's HIS time, not time to be chit chatting with mom all weekend. (Going out of town for two weeks is different).
chefsummer, ITA. It was probably an exaggeration, but if I had an ex call 50x over a few weeks, I would go nuts. I don't understand how Jon and Kate's phone situation works because I thought the twins had their own phones. Do you think they are not allowed to answer calls from their dad? If so, perhaps that could have been a reason to speak directly to Kate, but I still think the fact that cameras were present makes me think they were looking to air any reactions or emotions that resulted.
Has anyone followed this case? It speaks to what Admin said about the courts being tied up with baloney. This kid needs a smackdown, and so does the guy who she's living with, who is doing all the legal stuff and now expecting her dad to pay: http://gma.yahoo.com/rachel-canning-loses-effort-parents-pay-high-school-192643568--abc-news-parenting.html?vp=1
Thank you for your good thoughts, Call Me Crazy & Lanc Native.
grandee4 get well soon, hope your recent surgery is the end of your hospital stays.
it really doesn't make any difference since the result was the same - he was refused access.
________
And this is the whole point.
I kind of believe Jon-(not about the 50x) but when he say's he calls and he can't talk to his babies.
My former sister-in-law will do his with my nephew all the time.
When she get pissed or mad at my brother. She won't pick up the phone so my nephew can talk to my brother is father. So it can happen also Kate's not denying that it didn't happen same say she did with the child abuse claims.

That's how I took it, too, that when he communicates with Kate it's via test/email for the most part, but not every single time.
Having actually seen the footage, I didn't think it seemed staged. It seemed like something that just happened to get filmed. As I recall, it didn't show the actual phone call at all.
It just showed the aftermath of the phone call....Jon's extreme frustration, and Liz validating that it happens all the time.
I took it as they wanted to show his frustration with being denied access to the kids. The focus wasn't really about the phone call, per se. It was more the bigger picture that look what kind of frustration that ex is causing.
The show is more focused on Farrah than the Gosselin drama, anyway. The show actually seems fairly uninterested in the Gosselin saga.
The producers are kind of like, who is they guy again? Why's he here anyway? He's not a celebrity the way the others are, just some everyday guy. Why's he here? We gotta film his issues, huh? Well, ok, let's come up with a story line.
In the "he called/didn't call" debate on Twitter, this one made me snort.
We're All ECJ Anyway@ashymama2·1 hr
When will Hailey Glassman come forward to claim she has the texts to prove @kateplusmy8 is telling truth and Jon never called her?
The point being, whether it's one call or 50, he called and was denied access to his children, and there is a witness who saw he was denied access to his children.

If this is true, then I would assume that Jon could use this in court to show that Kate is truly denying him access to his kids.

It's like she wants to independent of her parents rules, but not their money.
The thought that a parent OWES a child a college education is absurd. That's indentured servitude.
Sorry, Missy. You asked to be all grown up, now go do it.

I agree. For the most part, Liz and Jon's story seems peripheral.
Maybe they should have filmed a sex tape before CT , and then like, whoopsy!, it got leaked?
Thanks for all the well wishes, very much appreciated.

Don't think I can get in a bathing suit right now so the Mumu and crocs will have to do. Might bring my visiting nurse along, he's young and so handsome and I never know when I may need him. Also, I'm willing to share should anyone need some medical attention.
One more thing, Milo PLEASE STFU!!!!!!!!!!
Long story short, have been watching DC Cupcakes on huluplus and wanted to see how Kate was with them when she went down there. All there was was a youtube clip but it linked some other J&K episodes, so I wanted to see the one where they discuss their Will. Of course it could be changed now, but at that time they set it up for the kids to get 50% of their money at graduation of college and the other 50% at AGE 30. 30!! If they don't go to school it's 100% at 30. Geesh. Make them wait long enough. I wonder tho, if that is just in case of J&K death or if that is how their trust is set up? Like they get $$ for college from their trust and if any is left, they get it at 30.
Geez, 30...they could be married several years with several kids by 30. That's a long wait for something they worked for when they were 3.
grandee, would your visiting male nurse look good in a thong? If so, bring him!!
Kate is an idiot to deny the call never happened. All Jon has to do is pull up his cell phone record.

Actually, kris, my husband and I set up our will similarly. The kids would not get any inheritance until age 30 if they did not complete four years of college. Needless to say, they completed college and are now just waiting for my husband and I to kick the bucket, LOL.

Winsome said:
Was reading the rules for child custody in PA. It spells out exactly what Jon is going through right now, and says to report things like that to the court. Even talks about parental alienation. It says the person breaking the rules will be responsible for the court costs..so Jon doesn't even need money to file his complaints. So, to me, this means that either Jon is not reporting that Kate is depriving him of his kids during custody time, or else the courts are terribly broken there. It's been 7 months since he last saw the one boy..surely the court would have addressed that by now, if it had been reported?
___________________________________________
Good work, winsomeone! I want to like Jon but.....yeah. He's not exactly the sharpest crayon in the box.
_________________________
I get it. You both don't like Jon. That's cool. But none of us are privy to what Jon (via his attorney) has presented to the Court. Admin has said she has info from a reliable source that indicates Jon has made many attempts to bring Kate's violation of the court orders to the court's attention, only to have the judge apparently feel that these problems are not egregious enough to warrant giving Jon full custody. We are given to understand that Jon now has 50/50 custody, which is a change from the first custodial order. Perhaps that was partially in response to the fact that Kate wasn't always in compliance - but that would be speculation.
Also, I would like to echo Admin who pointed out that every time you call your attorney, have a meeting with your attorney, or your attorney does any work on your case - it is billed at that attorney's hourly rate. If you have lots of money to spare, then by all means, call your attorney every day and bug the hell out of them. (Be prepared to hear that your attorney "is not available at the moment" after awhile if you make yourself a real pest.) But don't scream when the next bill arrives. Suggesting Jon should be constantly calling his attorney and demanding this, that or the other is not good advice and shows a lack of understanding of the process and the costs involved.

And you would probably see the arrival of the local sheriff or police department to escort you off the premises, especially if you camped out outside a judge's home. To boot, you'd probably lessen your chances of prevailing on any family law matters because you'd look unstable and possibly dangerous.
I'm a protective mother myself, yet I'm also rational and understand that while the court system may not always work the way I want, it's the system currently in place. My best chances of prevailing on a family law matter would be hiring the most competent counsel I could afford, listening and taking their advice, and presenting myself to the court in a professional and appropriate manner. Not sitting in the judge's department every day giving him the stink eye. Not invading the privacy of his home by sitting outside and crying foul because he didn't rule the way I wanted. Truly, that will make you memorable to the court but not in a good way.

As a mom to a son & a big sister to 2 brothers, it always makes me angry how Kate treats her boys as an afterthought. It's always something special for her girls & then another box of lego's for the boys.
__________
Me too. Mom to a wonderful son, and had two wonderful brothers. Boys are not icky. In fact, having a son opened my eyes to just how sweet and amazing boys can be. Loud, yes. Sometimes rowdy in the house, yes. But oh so much fun and deserving of love and attention and being treated as special. If I didn't despise Kate for so many other things, her treatment of those sweet boys alone would be sufficient reason to despise her.
My Travoltafied name is Siumvnhtg & Rijkmxtyuhters.
So Jon can't exaggerate and say he called 50 times because if he does he's lying but if TFW exaggerates (hundreds of entries in the not a contest, second printing for not a cookbook because apparently the first run of 500,000 copies sold out, # of inches of snow, well you get the idea) , it's the gospel truth and they all sympathize with her.
@RealZiggyFlo: @Kateplusmy8 @DrJennBerman IMO - I feel wihtout a doubt Berman was unethical whether she's lying 2 cover up or listening without permission
It's been said before and I'll say it again, the sheeple better watch the accusations they're throwing around. I don't think they want the VH1 lawyers descending on them. What's that you say? Free speech when they do it but call in BV and the lawyers if anyone else does it because it's bullying. SMH and LOLing.

Truth_Teller201 @DrJennBerman @Kateplusmy8 They both have said they only text each other many, many times.
Are sheeple really this stupid, or are they playing the role of the great pretender? Jon wanted to talk to his children. What is it that is so difficult to understand? His CHILDREN! Maybe he and Kate only do text, but he wasn't texting his children. He wanted to TALK to them.
I guess no matter how much we slap our heads in disbelief over the ignorance and complete lack of thinking ability of these fans, nothing is going to change the fact that they were out to pasture when intelligence was given out, and the more they argue and try to defend Kate while calling the therapist a liar, the more they keep digging that hole deeper.
Why do they continue with this? It would have been forgotten, but they won't let it go, and the more they argue, the more stupid their assertions become. Sheesh!

There is a long video of the judge's ruling. He is actually very impressive. This was just a preliminary hearing, asking for the parents to pay child support, high-school tuition, and attorney's fees on an "emergency" basis. The judge has ruled against any immediate payment, but the parents have agreed to keep the daughter on their health insurance and not touch funds already set aside for the daughter's college expenses. He is very much in favor of counseling and a negotiated solution.

I haven't read all the comments but what does Travolized(sp?) mean? Just curious.
Also Layla, thanks for ruining my day (LOL) I also fully expect to see a Tups Turn 10 cover on People mag in May." I hope you are wrong but I fear you may be right. I was just thinking a few weeks what possible reason would Kate be on another People magazine in the near future. I came up with nothing but I forgot about the tups turning 10. Maybe People will cancel the idea if they planned it due to the backlash of the twins cover and tv appearances. What, if the cover of the tups on People materalizes, are tv appearances soon to follow that week? We all know that Kate never learns. But we can only hope the tv media has. But I am afraid they haven't and would welcome the tups just because it would be a very popular interview. And the beat goes on, and on, and on.

Me too, I find this case extremely interesting and equally disturbing. It takes "a sense of entitlement" to a whole new level.
I can not fathom an 18 year old who ran away from home suing her parents' because she feels OWED a college education.
I've only read a couple of articles so I'm still sketchy on all the details but it truly boggles the mind that this even made it to a judge.
The last report I read stated that a voice message the young lady left for her mother was submitted into evidence and the judge was appalled at the total lack of respect this girl has for her parents.
Absolutely mind boggling.
Poor TFW must be torn. On one hand, she's thrilled at all the anti-Jon hysteria going on over Twitter. But on the other, hey, these people need to get off Twitter and start crib shopping! She put her order in yesterday! But, maybe like TFW's biggest fan proclaims, they're all communicatin' and coordinatin' in other ways.
Twf's dozen sheeple don't hold a candle to these numbers, but I'm willing to bet that the demographics of these fan bases are much younger than the sheeple.

''In two weeks of filming, with Jon living at the CT house in CA, with cameras and crew around 24/7, at some point, Jon will be filmed making phone calls to his children.''
''....You know why it would possible be a "get" on film? Because his bitch of an ex wife REFUSES to act like a responsible adult and co-parent with Jon, including civilized phone calls, which would and should be de rigueur.
Kate has spent YEARS using the fact that they rarely speak, and communicate by text and email as a talking point, trying to garner sympathy for her poor, entitled self.''

BINGO! Once again, TCFW's fans are twisting themselves halfway to China in order to blame anyone and JON for anything and everything.
Faith Orteez here (Hey! I like it). I'm with TLC Stinks - if, when or ever the truth about Jon calling TFW is necessary, phone records will tell the tail. We, John Q Public, need not know. Both Jon and Kate exaggerate. I wish both sides would just drop it. (Like that'll ever happen). Her "400 million inches" of snow simply translates to "a lot", in her opinion. I see no need to pick on that. My Mom used "upteenth time". I use "bazillion" or "gazillion". It is a personal expression of "a lot". I certainly would not use in the expression in court. Sometimes you need to be precise, other times not so much. My DH wouldn't get far professionally if he presented his drawings to a client, or for permitting referencing a measurement as "as a bunch of inches" but if I ask him how tall something is he sure as heck might say "way tall".
Faith Orteez leaving now to get fish tacos.
In Milo's world, I guess the only woman/mother that should be respected is Kate. What about respecting Liz/Dr. Berman-they are both women and mothers?

On The Talk today Sheryl Underwood was commenting on Shakira(sp?) wanting 8 or 9 kids. Sheryl said there was nothing wrong with a large family unless you're OctoMom or that other Mom (searches for the name), Kate Gosselin. Neither Mom can handle that many kids. Ouch.
OT Did anyone watch CHOPPED last night? They had Real Authentic Grandmothers on! They were wonderful and the judges were Amanda F., Scott C. and Aaron S. They were stunned how great they cooked. Perfectly seasoned food, they were ranting and raving how great one Gma used the popovers in her entrée. Won't say how, don't want to spoil! They walked to the pantry, one Gma offered to get another one plates b/c she just wanted to help her so she could get everything on the plate. They were just so funny, especially the Gma from Thailand. She was a comedian!
It would be so awesome to invite them all back and do an hour special and have them each cook a meal, taking their time and all sit down and eat it. I would much rather watch that than TCFW on a cooking segment like she did on H&F! I was rooting for each Gma, I didn't want Ted to CHOP anyone! They were great!
Amanda was bawling and the all the guys were tearing up. One Gma has her own restaurant in the house that she grew up in that belonged to her grandmother. The Gma on the show was born in the house in the front room. It is called Grandmother's House and it is only less than an hour away from my hometown. Their personal stories were incredible.
Also, the Gma did not apply to the show or anybody in her family or friends. She thinks that they were going to do the show and googled Gma cooks and her restaurant came up and they called. She was shocked to say the least! I wish they could of all won!
Bless her heart, and it was all grifting free!
Leslie - There is a website that lets you type in your name (use your posting name) to "Travoltify" it. It started after John Travolta butchered Idina Menzel's name when he introduced her at the Oscars. Here is the link if you want to do it for a laugh.

You have no idea how much this blog has helped in my recovery. It kept me occupied during my hospital stay.
I am a nurse also, so it was hard to be on that side of the bed rail.
We want to have control even when its not possible. I only had my iPad with me and have not set it up properly yet to post from it.
Laughter is the best medicine and I know exactly where to find it.
Joy, I'm there with you and yes, my nurse would look great in a thong and fit right In with the pool boys. Now, how do I tell he I bought him a ticket to Key West?
Someone posted about how TCFW likes her minions to do her dirty work for her, in her thinking that it gives her "clean hands". Of course. She thinks she can get by with everything with that thinking. Perfect example: the rabid fans tweeting bad things about Jon and other stupid tweets and she retweets them! I am surprised that she has not retweeted the awful ones to Dr. Jenn.
Jon may have not called TCFW 50 times, but it had to be close. I see nothing wrong with CT showing Jon talking on the phone to TCFW as long as we didn't hear her talking. Who cares? CT had every right to air Jon's conversation, but probably when he was calling and texting her, she called her lawyers and they squashed airing her talking. She thrives on drama and making Jon explode. She is mentally ill.
Just think, if TCFW was around 18 and her and 3 of her friends went out one night and she was driving and someone wanted to stop at a 7-11 to get some snacks and she pulled up and she was the only one that stayed in the car. Then a couple of minutes later, she hears a gun shot and her friends come running out carrying a paper sack full of money. They jump in and scream DRIVE!
She takes off and a couple of hours later they are caught by the police. Can you imagine what she is going to tell the local cops? Why, officer, poor little me didn't know they were going to do THAT. Don't you know who I am, AND who I will be? One day really soon, (when I find a shmuck and my master plan can be launched) I will be rich, so rich, richer than my wildest dreams with many babies that will pay my way! You local PD will be under my thumb one day, I promise you that! I wish I had a bodyguard to get me out of here right now. I will one day to carry my purse and dry cleaning! As God as my witness, I will never go poor again!
As if she was poor in the first place!

I had never heard of sangrias and they were made in a big gallon jug until I saw it made by Tyler Florence on Food 911 about 8 to 10 years ago. Wow. It looked so good!
Wesley Meems checking in...
Tucker's Mom, Schmemy! I love it. How could anyone dislike a pup nicknamed Schmemy? I've been calling coworkers that today and surprising, have only gotten a few "have you shown up to work drunk?" looks.
Bitchy, I was going to stick with authentic Brit names - in particular British PM's - but when I mentioned Gladstone, Disraeli & Thatcher the response was thumbs down. I really like Owen, actually almost named a kid that.
T, thank you for coming up with my very own Travolta name. I'd change my lanyard at work to Warren Berzy if I was fairly sure the state wouldn't yank my license. They have zero sense of humor ;) At least I can proudly call myself Warren Berzy here! I like Bertie too but my daughter rolled her eyes and told me to get over my British monarchy fetish LOL
NJ, I love Spike for a bully and can see why you keep it for each one. My uncle named all of his labs (male and female) Earl. He said he was getting on in years and he didn't want to forget the dog's name. You should have seen the looks he got at obedience training when he'd yell "Earl! EARL!, come here girl right now!"
Let's hope Milo keeps running her mouth. At least if Dr. Jen files suit we'd get to see Milo in all her crazy glory. Personally, I just want to know if it's male, female, neutered or a figment of Kate's stunted imagination
Sincerely,
Warren Berzy
Some people get lovely names, and I'm blessed with Sami Cunningwham.

OT Did anyone watch CHOPPED last night? They had Real Authentic Grandmothers on! They were wonderful and the judges were Amanda F., Scott C. and Aaron S. They were stunned how great they cooked.
((((((((((((
Will definitely watch for the rerun and dvr it.
I loved the episode when they had the "lunch ladies/men" compete. They were fierce and had more cooking chops than the cocky doofuses that think they're all that and a bag of chips!
I know I said my Travoltifed name was Lucas Bandito.
**********
LOL!! It sounds like an outlaw in the Old West.
These Travoltified names are cracking me up!
Let's hear it for the "Meems!".

Yay, Meems! You (Travis), willowmom (Wesley) and I (Cruz) so far. Any other Meems out there?
Susie Cincinnati (aka Sami Cunningwham) - I'll ask the other Meems if we can make you an honorary Meem if you'd like. Sami C. Meem!
We sound like characters in a Dr. Seuss book!
Lucas Bandito - I know you! You starred in that Clint Eastwood movie For a Few Dollars More as Sancho Perez.
Thanks Rhymes 80 and Formerly 97.
My name is Findlay or my full name is Gregor Mozaleen. I think I will stick with Findlay.
I wonder if Lucas Bandito is related to Frito Bandito???
Tucker's Mom you will love it! TCFW free, grifting free and Ted, ah! Ted! lol
He is the CHOPPER with Heart! Compared to TCFW, she CHOPS anyone, anything, anywhere w/zero remorse!
I must confess, I made up my own Travoltifed name. I thought that was what everyone was doing! I didn't know there was a website you could do this at. I will go there.
I looked up the pizza place where the delivery guy worked, he co-owns it and the pizza place is home of the 36" pizza! You ought to see the box it comes in. The kids would go nuts! If TCFW had a heart, for the tups birthday she could order one like that locally, if anyone had it, buy a several gallons of the Napoleon air filled ice cream, make a big salad, garlic bread with the garlic butter in the foil bags you buy at the deli, get a big silver wash tub or kids plastic pool fill with ice and put all the drinks in it.
The birthday cake: Have a baker make normal sized cakes, 6 in all and let them tell the baker HOW THEY WANT them to be decorated. If Alexis wants a iguana on it, SO BE IT! Get extra regular sheet cakes frosted with different flavors so you won't run out. Give extras left over of what you do not want to the moms instead of the garbage.
If it is warm enough to swim in the pool, let the kids invite who ever they want to come over, HIRE 2 college lifeguard to watch all the kids, balloons, party favors, a nice bag for each child to take home. AND the invitations will say, all presents will be donated to the local hospitals for the sick children.
And write out a check and PAY FOR IT ALL BY YOURSELF,
PLEASE! And don't pay for Steve to be there by your side. There is no reason for him to be there. And NO CA'S either.
Gee, now I'm feeling even more left out. I'm still stuck with Bailey Pay-ne. I'd even take Susie Cincinnati's Cunningwham. Can I be an honorary Allorn or Meems? Or both? Pretty please with rumspringa on top?

Welcome to the Meems, Bitchy!
Oh, how funny AuntieAnn! Laughed out Loud!
I co starred in the movie before I got the middle name Sangria! After all the rooting, tooting, and dag nabbed shooting, we all celebrated with gallons of Sangria that a local saloon owner made and his name was Bottomus Uppsz!
Admin: I put your name, Admin to get Travoltified! And your name is:
AYDEN!
Is that not ironic? I know that it is not the correct spelling, but oh, so close!!
TCFW is now hitting her speed dial to her lawyers to say...
CAN WE SUE the Travoltified Machine??? lol
Schmemy, now that's funny because my bully's nickname is Schmedley!
Lukebandit, maybe you'd feel more at home with my name, which is Luke Bruwn. No kidding.
Now, how do I tell he I bought him a ticket to Key West?
((((((((((
You don't. You just pack his thong in his carry-on, get him liquored up on some Jack Daniels, and lead him by the nose if no other body part is available at the time. That should do it.
I'll stick with my name, Alisdair. With that name I feel like I'm part of the upstairs in upstairs/downstairs situations. Just call me Dame Alisdair.
I hope Travolta is getting a kick out of this and not feeling bad. We're laughing with him not at him.
LOL! I am "Tia Smotckins"

SusieinCincinnati Cunningwham? I first thought that was Cunningham from Cincinnati. You could be Siissy Cunningham, Richie Cunningham's long lost sister, instead of Chuck Cunningham! lol
Call me Crazy: funny. Lee Brazent. Lee is the middle name of one of my ds!
Lynne in RI: Luke Bruwn? I hope I am not related to Cody Bruwn of the Sister Wives! lol
When I post on TV without pity about Sister Wives, I have called him from the beginning, Korky Brown. He is a certifiable nutcase!
I tried out the Travoltifier and got "Solomon" for "Silimom". Then I switched to "Sili Mom" because I wanted to have a last name and I got "Sami Meems".

Oh, big whoop1 kate sewed attached some felt to a kids hat for her kid school play. Her devoted fans are praising her, sewing ability. I've been sewing for at least 50 years. I've sew: clothes, made costumes for Sci-fi conventions, curtains, made a quilt, and knitted a 22 ft long Doctor Who scarf. I do craft stuff & garden. Welcome to being mediocre Kate, anyone can hot glue stuff to a hat. Your nothing special. I laugh at the idiots who say to Kate, your such a role model & I wish I could be half the person you are. I hope that woman husband runs for the hills or to a divorce lawyer soon. If her idiot fans aspire to be like Kate, they will clean out the husband and throw him under the bus, Kate did. LOLOLOL

I would not be surprised if Kate & kids, went to NYC to visit Terry & Bindi Irwin, on friday or Terry & Bindi went to their house in PA, on friday and stayed all weekend. Kates Kids have their school play thursday and then they are off for almost 2 weeks for spring break. Cause you know Kate & Terry are 2 of a kind, BBF. Unless people had watched their show, most people will say who is Terry & Bindi Irwin? They may be known in Aussie, but not too much here.

Thanks Joy for the invite, having lots of fun with this virtual trip. Once again, saved from the pain of dressing changes and range of motion exercise to keep my leg healthy.
I never get enough of this blog. Been browsing around the various JK8 sites since 2008 and so glad I ended up here. Thanks to Admin and everyone that is making all this healing a lot easier.
Been having some weird dreams since surgery. OMG, I know one dream or nightmare that would send me into cardiac arrest and that would be waking up in the hospital with WOS standing over me in a nursing uniform, chomping on gum. Introduces herself, "my name is Kate and I'm your nurse tonight, turns and starts to leave the room but first places the call light totally out of my reach.
pic.twitter.com/mpMF7wu4dr
I sincerely hope she did not spend the whole day on that '20 minutes with a glue gun' project.
Kate's fans are singing her praises for her "sewing" project as if she is Betsy Ross incarnated.
I took a look at it and it's similar to something my 7 year old granddaughter made at school!! Plus my granddaughter's stitches were a lot straighter than Kate's, and she used the correctly colored thread to match the fabric.
Admin, it is the little things, simple things that makes us laugh more than things that are really funny.
The hat that TCFW made was cute, BUT, she could of bought nicer feathers for the hat. I wonder if she went to all that trouble for Tup Boy C? If it was for him. I sent her a tweet that she could get a black sharpie and color over the 8 yes, 8 little stiches she sewed on the beak! I counted them.
I made a costume when my ds was 6 for school and it had to be what they wanted to be when they grew up. DS wanted to be a fireman. Well, living paycheck to paycheck, I still went all out and dressed him up, very frugally. He wore his blue jeans, boots, a T-shirt, his suspenders, and I bought him a 1 dollar Fireman's hat and I thought he needs something else. I got a 2 liter coke bottle and went out side and got the cheap water hose sprayer and took it off the water hose and it fit perfectly on the bottle. Bought a 1 dollar can of red spray paint and sprayed it. Put the sprayer back on. Made a label for the bottle that said A___ Fire Department.
He was thrilled! I wish I would of gotten a plastic tool belt with tools and a jump rope for a few extra dollars and attached them to his jeans. What DS just had on his teacher was thrilled.
Lifetime Movie Network is airing both parts of the Betty Broderick (Travolaterized: Brody Bailerey) movie this Tuesday.
Little tidbit for me, the opening scene in part 1 was filmed on a soccer field in a park that I frequent. It looks almost exactly the same even thought it's kind of an old movie. It's been awhile since we've had a viewing party, maybe it's about time! If you don't get LMN, I believe it's also on youtube.
I'm like you, getofftwitter, sew, garden and cook like crazy, from dance and skating costumes, costumes for school plays, quilts, fancy dresses for proms, lots without any patterns as well. Pft, you got NOTHING on us, kreider, NOTHING!

Faith Orteez here (Hey! I like it). I'm with TLC Stinks - if, when or ever the truth about Jon calling TFW is necessary, phone records will tell the tail. We, John Q Public, need not know. Both Jon and Kate exaggerate. I wish both sides would just drop it. (Like that'll ever happen). Her "400 million inches" of snow simply translates to "a lot", in her opinion. I see no need to pick on that. My Mom used "upteenth time". I use "bazillion" or "gazillion". It is a personal expression of "a lot". I certainly would not use in the expression in court. Sometimes you need to be precise, other times not so much. My DH wouldn't get far professionally if he presented his drawings to a client, or for permitting referencing a measurement as "as a bunch of inches" but if I ask him how tall something is he sure as heck might say "way tall".

Good night all!
I had a "sign of the times" conversation with my kindergarten age grandson yesterday. I can't even remember what we were talking about when he told me that if a bad guy tries to steal the kids in his school, the school goes into lockdown and they have to hide in the closet. I'm assuming they must have had a drill yesterday. Well, we all know why the schools are having lockdown drills and I hate the thought of my grandson and his classmates huddled together frightened in a closet but the alternative could be much worse. I'm glad they're having these drills but I hate that they have to have these drills. If you know what I mean.

If that's the best Kate could do for the costume, with uneven circles and stitching, fine. But why post it- does she really think it's praiseworthy? Looks like she spent 10 minutes, did not bother to trace circles to make them even or care about the sewing.She who cuts hundreds of circles for her 'famous' Easter Bunny Munny. I think she doesn't care- just wants praise for doing what all mothers/caregivers do.

I never learned to sew so the had that she made looks OK to me. It's probably better than anything I could do.
Bindi Irwin and her brother and mother were on GMA. They are doing some deal with Seaworld. The little brother also now has a series of books, tv show, etc. Wonder if Kate even knows they are in the US? Bet she is a little green with envy. Bindi and her brother are kind of over the top enthusiastic in the interview. This is probably how Kate wanted her twins to be on the Today Show.

I'm a Cunningwham on my father's side of the family. We have been banned from previous family reunions because we're a bit wackadoodle and have a tendency to partake of too much rumspringa but I will be attending this year. Look forward to seeing you there.
Saw TCFW's twit pic of the hat. It's cute but no better than what us medicore moms have done. My hats off to prairiemary and getofftwitter with regard to sewing. I can hand sew but have never learned machine sewing. However, I am the queen of using Stitch Witchery bonding tape and often times make something without hand sewing or bonding tape. I just made curtain panels for my dining room using paint drop cloths (4' x 15', no sewing just used pinking shears and cut them in half) and a stencil. I read about a product called Unique Stitch, sewing with a tube, on a diy/design blog so I went and bought some and I'm making new throw pillow covers today. However it would be so much easier if I learned how to sew on a machine.
Wonder if Kate even knows they are in the US?
She does now. lol
Since she read it on here a day or so ago she probably has spent every minute trying to get herself on teevee with them somehow.
Is Terri an idiot? How typical to align herself with Sea World when they are facing one of the biggest PR disasters in the history of zoos. La-la nothing to see here isn't Sea World wonderful?
She really is not the sharpest tool in the shed. Now she's going to have people protecting the Australia Zoo TOO. Real smart.
And how about Sea World taking up with them. Sounds like desperation to me.
I really miss Steve Irwin. It sounds like he was the brains behind the operation.

Don't tell Kate but this morning on The Today Show, the interview couch was filled with a young family who had triplets, then twins, in one year. 5 adorable babies. I did not hear the back story, but when asked how they do it averaging 3 hours of sleep a night, the response was that they are extremely grateful for family close by and a supportive church. Doubt they plan to dump either of them next year.

This could get interesting. Kate sees Terri as another bff. If she tweets her now, she's gonna find herself in another kettle of fish. pun intended.
Naughty But Nice Rob has a new post on his blog about Jon. Apparently, Jon called into the show The Gossip Table and talked about his rant about Kate.
"Jon Gosselin just called his ex-wife, Kate, a f**king bitch, now he is telling THE GOSSIP TABLE why!
“No it wasn’t staged (when I called her an f-ing B). She did hang up on me, but I shouldn’t have verbalized the F***ing bitch thing. I was so frustrated that I let it fly. No she hasn’t said anything to me about it, it’s been business as usual, but everyone says she watches the show.”
I checked The Gossip Table website, and they don't have a video of this conversation posted. I wonder if they'll post it later today or tomorrow.

I sure hope that didn't take her all day. That would be a beginner craft project that one might do with young kids (like I used to do when my son was preschool age). Cut out the felt circles, break out the glue sticks, and help the kiddos glue the felt circles then the "eyes" to a knit cap. It does not appear any sewing was necessary.
Speaking of simple craft projects to do with young kids - I still break out a Christmas decoration that my son made in preschool, every year. It's a piece of wood (round branch), about one foot tall. Parents were asked to send an old clean sock to school. The sock toe was cut off, then tied with a red ribbon. It turned into a cap for the piece of wood. They painted the wood white, glued on eyes, nose and mouth, and it's a little snowy elf.
That's what Kate's cap reminds me of. Beginner craft project for 4-year olds. Glad to know she isn't completely helpless.
I seem to remember TFW said she and Terri Irwin e-mail "a lot" and plan to "reconnect". I wonder if she even knew the Irwin family were in the U.S. I'll bet she is frantically attempting to "reconnect" now in the hope of inserting herself into an interview or two with Terri - birds of a feather and all that.

I know. She claims the day flew by because she SO busy and all she has to show for it is that crumby cap?
These self-congratulatory tweets she sends about the smallest achievements is such a quirky trait in TFW. I'd be embarrassed with the job she did.
-----------
She took a blue cap, cut out felt circles, bought the eyes at the craft store and glued and then stitched a black felt beak on it. I can't sew a lick, have problems with buttons), but even I could do that. I'd be embarrassed to death to tweet a picture of that.

I got a little of the back story while watching Hoda and Kathie Lee this morning. The couple were in the process of adopting the triplets when they found out they were expecting a baby. Then they found out they were expecting twins. The triplets are now 10 months and the twins are 10 weeks. From what H&KL said the adoption of the triplets was not a smooth process as the birth mother at one point had decided to keep the babies.

@Kateplusmy8 That's adorable! Looks like you did a pretty darn good job of sewing it together. Did U have a pattern or did U make your own?
I've read some really dumb stuff coming from the sheeple, but this one has to be in the top ten. Sometimes I can't figure out if they are really serious, or just appearing to be stupid to bait the haters.

No she hasn’t said anything to me about it, it’s been business as usual, but everyone says she watches the show.”
LOL....I think we can guess what the next article on ROL will be. "Sources close to Kate" (aka Milo) deny she ever hung up on Jon. Just wait....
-------------------------
One of the sheeple is spinning it that since Jon said Kate hung up on him, no conversation took place, and Dr. Jenn lied!
Of course, the sheeple mind can't comprehend that Kate may have hung up on Jon in the middle of a conversation. In one of the previews, Jon was shown as saying "I need to talk to my kids", so apparently there was a conversation.
So if the sheeple believe that Kate hung up on Jon, are they admitting now that there was an actual phone call between Kate and Jon?
Sheeple Logic at it's best!

I really miss Steve Irwin. It sounds like he was the brains behind the operation.

And the moral compass too.

Sorry, ladies, I have to disagree. IMO Steve Irwin teased the crap out of any critters he came across. All for the cameras. I watch gorgeous documentaries on nature and its inhabitants all the time. It is possible to film and educate without ripping these creatures out of their homes and stressing them out like I saw Steve Irwin do.

But...Kate DID sew the eyes onto the hat. Enlarge the picture and you can see the stitches. She used the right color thread and it's almost invisible. If only she has switched to black for the beak.

Ok, if there was no conversation or attempt at conversation, how could Kate hang up on him? Those darn sheeple...always good for a laugh.
Jolie Jasmine Jacqueline - Aw, glad to hear those fun times could cheer you up in the middle of the night but sorry about your families troubles. Try to tie a knot and hang in there, even when it starts to look like macrame. There will be light at the end of the tunnel.
And thank you for your kind words. Hubs & I are muddling through this long winter. We have had some wild wheelchair adventures in the ice and snow lol! I wish we had one of FOTK's faux seude magic lazyboys.
Wishing the best for you and yours.

I agree with Capecodmama - Summer is a beautiful name.

A pattern? Really?
Do you think the sheep are trying to pull the wool over our eyes? (oh that's bad, sorry).
That cap looks like a little child did it. Where's iStock photos when you need them, huh Kate?
PJ -- I'm glad to see that someone else has the same opinion about Steve Irwin as I do. He seems to have acquired a veneer of sainthood since his death. I never found his antics amusing or educational. He was a pure showman, and I don't think he really gave a damn about the animals whose habitats he invaded. It eventually got him killed. Sting rays are usually pretty gentle creatures and don't attack unless they feel threatened. Slinking back to my corner now.
I hated Steve Irwin's techniques too and always did, I don't even believe in zoos much less their disgusting circus, but I still think he was the brains behind the operation and that even if he liked Seaworld he wouldn't have been so stupid as to align himself with them during one of the biggest marine PR crisis in all of modern history.

Does Kate realize that that describes her fans to a T?

I'm confused, as usual. Yesterday they were saying that Jon and Kate only text, so no phone call took place and Dr. Jenn is a liar. Now they are saying that he might have called, but didn't talk to her?
I can't keep up with their "spins."
Sadly, because after all Bindi Irwin is only 15, there js a lot of negative, and nasty, backlash surfacing for this not well thought out Sea World plan. Terri Irwin and her pal KG are really cut out of the same narcissistic cloth. Did Terri, or her people, not think this out, after all the negative publicity Sea World is currently embroiled in. Oh, and did Terri not tell Kate she was coming from Down Under. Thought they were bff's.
Bindi Irwin is getting slammed on twitter for aligning with Sea World.

Here's an article about it:

Hmmm I actually like this one twitter name will be changed thanks AA.
I know nothing about narcissists...never knew one, never had one in the family, but I have a question. Kate tweeted the picture of the hat that couldn't have taken anyone longer than an hour (at most) to make, and it looks like a lower school student made it. She couldn't even cut the eyes in perfect circles. Does a narcissist believe that everything they do is amazing, wonderful, and deserves applause? Can't a narcissist see such a thing as it really is? It's just really odd that someone would tweet a photo of something that looks this bad.
No way a 15 year old is emotionally equipped to deal with a PR crisis of this magnitude. I can't believe their first and last answer wasn't stay out of it. What were they thinking? She's 15!

I can't believe Sea World is aligning themselves with a minor to resuscitate their image.
Is Terri like Kate? Yup, cut from the same cloth, but I liken Terri far more to Joe Jackson.
I think the Irwin boy has his own TV series now, too.
Like others here, I thought TFW would tweet something to GMA today, but she's apparently smart enough --or blissfully unaware of news events--to stay well beyond the reach of the SeaWorld-Irwin debacle.
