«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 769 Newer› Newest»It's on their FB page for the radio station. I'm not sure how to link to the actual post, you have to wade through a ton of comments to find the comment from the radio station back peddling saying maybe they shouldn't do this. That particular comment had a ton of likes.
I can just imagine the mark ups on the junk at this garage sale. She must think she is in the same league as Madonna, Princess Diana, and more people who have donated items and100% going to charity. She is more like the Kartrasians selling on Ebay and 10% going to the charity that Kris has. I think the locals are really getting sick of her by now. I feel bad for the kids at school. Some of their classmates must mention stuff either to them or behind their backs. This is a very sad situation.

They think this is a social event, a gathering of fans. It's going to be a gawkfest. Kate really blew it this time. Sorry, Auntie. That's your line.

Here's idea for hater's: Sims4 is out. Purchase & create your own Kate & control her as you want & leave the real one alone
Someone should tell her or msgoody that they can create Jon and control him to their hearts content.
No anonymous, garage sales are not a good way to make money, despite the fact that lots of people do them. (Although around here, I probably see a garage sale about once a year. It's not done much anymore in my neighborhood, probably because they are a complete waste of time.) It is very unlikely you are going to make anything but pocket change with a garage sale, and it's a heck of a lot of work to get there.
It is as simple as pie to place your items on amazon where people who actually want that specific item go, and make a ton more money than hoping somebody walks by your house and wants that particular item. It's also very simple to take your things to consignment and get a check right there and then.
If you search around the internet, you will find that in this day in age most people are agreeing that garage sales are a waste of time, an absolute bust whenever they tried it, and a thing of the past. That's not how most people buy things anymore, they have quickly become a relic. There are of course exceptions to every rule. In some neighborhoods they may be a wild success and worth the effort (group sales, in particular, where several families join together.) That simply is not the case in many neighborhoods.
Kate is not a struggling family just looking to make cash however they can. She is a millionaire who could unload herself at her pleasure. This is all contrived for show fodder and you, TLC, and everybody else darn well knows it. We have SEEN her bring stuff to consignment, it's all captured by the paps. That is her normal way of unloading her unwanted things. The only two garage sales that have ever happened here have been for the cameras. BOTH of them. If garage sales are just such a wonderful thing for her, why hasn't she held any others in all this time? My point was this is contrived, and that she should and DOES know better how to unload her items in a half dozen other much better ways. It's also insulting and patronizing. There is hardly an interesting episode out of Kate sitting on Amazon and spending 45 minutes listing all her items then getting a great sale two weeks later.

This is what's so strange about this yard sale. The majority of her fans (there's another oxymoron for you Flimsy) don't live in her neighborhood. They don't live anywhere near her. What's the purpose of holding this sale where she's already screwed over half the people in it?
(Leslie)
In a few years from now,the tups are not going to fit in those little bedrooms Kate has upstairs. Depending on the layout of the three bedrooms upstairs, I would consider knocking down a wall and making two little bedrooms one larger one. And I think the tup girls should move into the new larger upstairs bedroom and have the twins move into the smaller bedroom next to it. And the tup boys should move into the twins room for more space.
The way it is now the six of them get cramped into two smaller bedrooms and the twins get the largest bedroom. And there is also the vacate bedroom.
For now it is O.K. but when the tups are pre-teens and teenagers it will not work out for them.
Or better yet, convert some of that basement to a large bedroom. It already has a finished bath.
When I saw how tiny the tups bedroom was in Wife Swap I was really surprised.
Thanks, admin. I found it. Where does the station indicate that it is seriously considering not doing the show? I couldn't find that.
Not too long ago someone posted that Kate is boring and nothing is happening. A poster responded by saying to just give her time and she will do something stupid again. She didn't disappoint, and it didn't take her long.

They won't be there then. As soon as they are no longer useful, she'll ship them off the boarding school.

No, no, no! Gladys has been very adamant that everyone who lives in her community absolutely loves her with the same passion that she has for Kate. Okay, maybe not in the same lusting way, but they do adore her. Or so she says.
Perhaps someone should send her the link to the comments on the radio station's FB page.
Fleecing:
Teresa XXXX They just filmed a circus, now TLC is going to film one at church!
Just think of the money she stole from the church tours! At each church she got a 25K appearance fee, selling of the Family Photo for 20 CASH ONLY and people were lined up many many deep, and THEN the LOVE OFFERING, thousands at the mega churches! Now she is using this church to get rid of her GLUTTONY HOARDING OF GRIFTING and just going to EEK out A PORTION of the proceeds to Local Animal Rescue! She should give it ALL, not just a small portion! She is going to make 45K just to film the episode of the Yard Sale!

It still is a rather big thing here, although not quite as popular as a few years ago. Then again, we are always a bit behind the times. It also depends on what you are selling. There is an entire section in the newspapers, organized by neighborhood, advertising some of the items to be sold. If there are some really good deals, high-end items, good used furniture, then people will turn out. In fact, I know some who spend a considerable amount of time going through the ads, mapping their route, timing everything out so they can hit all the places on their list.
I don't waste my time, though. I'd much rather go to the local antique markets, Shupp's Grove, Black Angus, Renninger's, where they also have yard sales. They're all in the same area, and it's much easier than driving all over the county.

It's just haphazard and probably not really thought out by anyone, Kate or the producers. If they actually thought this out, somebody would have caught the "portion" thing and suggested they should scratch that. On what planet would anyone think that's a good thing to say?
It's incredibly obvious that the locals are done with her. If anyone comes, they will come to heckle or they will come because they honestly don't know who she is. Their best bet is to hope a bunch of fans show up. But if they want fans to come, they're going to have to give at least a month's notice if not more. Like others have said people make plans. Even a fan a few hours away probably can't swing it without more notice.
Dollars to donuts they had no idea they were going to even do this a month ago. It's low budget, fly by the seat of your pants. Sooner or later it will catch up and it just may this weekend.
Anyone think TLC is going to show how much TFW is hated? First, they would show the incident at Skyzone where she gets yelled at to go away and then the garage sale with a dismal turnout/getting heckled by locals. Just a thought.
Remember when back in July Kate tweeted a picture of the bar stools that she and Jamie recovered?
I wonder if this was the beginning of this makeover/remodel and they were even filming during the summer. Or perhaps, they were "touching up" things to sell at the yard sale, because she knew they would be getting new stuff.
So many things that make you go "hmm" in retrospect.
I don't waste my time, though. I'd much rather go to the local antique markets, Shupp's Grove, Black Angus, Renninger's, where they also have yard sales. They're all in the same area, and it's much easier than driving all over the county.

What I suspect also really hurt our local garage sales was also our swap meets. We have wonderful ones. There's one at the Rose Bowl, at Pasadena City College, and the lions do swap meets every couple months. Churches do them, and there's a bunch of others I've never been to. There's probably a swap meet every weekend. You can find anything you could ever possibly want and more at a swap meet. There's no desire to comb the ads and drive around town to the few garage sales left. I've gotten so many cool things at them. I love the "beach" sign I have with the arrow, and the wooden bin I use for toys that looks antiquey. I could drive around for years and never find those.
When I was growing up, we had nothing like that and on any given weekend in the summer the neighborhood would be dotted with garage sales and we'd always stop. I got my first TV for college at a garage sale. It's just no the case anymore. It's interesting to see how the changing times really trickle down to affect so many things, including garage sales.
In my opinion the biggest disadvantage with garage sales is that you are going to the people, the people are not coming to you. If I'm selling a certain video game, it may only be worth 2 bucks to someone who walks by who is only mildly interested in it. But if I throw it on amazon all of a sudden I'm putting it out there to people who actually want it, and they'll pay closer to 20 because it's just what they wanted. It's a no brainer to forget the garage sale.
I can't say for sure what TLC is thinking but I do get the sense they are in the "throw everything out there and see what sticks" mode.
No, no, no! Gladys has been very adamant that everyone who lives in her community absolutely loves her with the same passion that she has for Kate. Okay, maybe not in the same lusting way, but they do adore her. Or so she says.

Serendipity, yes. If Gladys had her way there would be a little statue of Kate on every dashboard.

Is it me or does anyone else think the word "unwanted" in the yard sale ad is strange. Just say "no longer needed" or "no longer using" or better still, just list what your selling.
-------
I thought that "items clogging up their house" was an odd & unnecessary description. Totally a first world problem to have so much stuff that a mansion is clogged.
I hope the locals step up here and protest Kate's Prosperous & Plentiful Pennsylvanian Plush Performance!!
Oh dear, I sound like a certain someone on twitter. Apologies. ;) Seriously, hopefully some of you can rally together and provide some opposition against TLC and Kate.
LOL, the Rose Bowl swap meet has been around since the 60's. It hardly killed garage sales.
***
Lol? The Rose Bowl Swap meet was not nearly as big as it is now when it started. It's massive now and grows bigger by the year. I found an article from the 80's saying they had 1500 vendors. Today, they have over 2500. Clearing it's been growing by leaps and bounds over the years.
And in the 60's there were no these sort of sales on every single corner on every single weekend. So yes I do believe the trend to do group swap meets has hurt sales. You are free to disagree but laughing at me is immature.
I usually have one yard sale during the summer. I enjoy the chitchatting with my neighbors & friends that come to participate. Certainly won't get rich with a yard sale - the goal is usually to declutter the garage & make enough money to buy lunch at my favorite deli. FYI - I find Friday mornings to be the best time to hold one - most Friday 'shoppers' are moms that have kids/husbands to entertain on Saturday & so they enjoy the opportunity to browse uninterrupted on the way home from dropping kids at school. When I do a Friday sale, I usually sell all I've put out by11am.
Their best bet is to hope a bunch of fans show up.
________________________________
And when they don't, the production company will have a bunch of paid extras there ready to play the adoring fans.
Will TFW be selling $20 pictures? Will she be serving lemonade?
Remember when that was the fans' explanation for the wooden
spoon in the car? Will the kids be made to pose for pictures with strangers like circus monkeys? Sounds like a #SuperFunSaturday.
I know why she didn't mention this yard sale thing sooner. She
was probably basking in Jon's eviction story, and didn't want to
have her news distract and/or detract from it.
(Leslie)
I bet a lot of people will show up if they are filming. They will simply want to be on camera. So I would not be surprised if there is a moderate to large turnout. Also some will show up just to see what see looks like up close, what the kids look like in person, and how she handles herself.
Via Time Magazine:
hy would Zellweger want to look like someone else when she makes money partially off of her appearance? That seems to be a bad decision. Just ask Jennifer Grey’s nose and Kate Gosselin’s new haircut.

Pleassssse. After all the years we've been following Kate's antics, does anyone believe she has ANY interest in a garage sale, chit chatting with locals and donating money to a charity? Oh no! She was strong armed by TLC because they have been creating a STORYLINE for months now. Every bit of what is being filmed and what has been filmed was story boarded and Kate made darn sure she got something out of it in addition to her salary from TLC. I am totally disgusted that after the way she treats animals she is attempting to pass herself off as an animal lover by donating an unknown percentage of the proceeds to an animal charity. What a lie. Instead of attending the fake garage sale, locals should donate DIRECTLY to the charity.

Yes, I agree with you both. It sounds like, "Our trash is your treasure!" And not in a good way.
I wonder if Kate will be one of those high-priced yard sales where people overvalue what their stuff is worth? When I used to shop yard sales regularly, a reasonable price was ten cents on the dollar.

Hi foxy, I didn't see your comment (reading from the bottom) before I posted. We're thinking alike! Around here, we have a saying for people who believe something is worth more just because they themselves have owned it. We say, "They must think their butt is a goldmine!" That would be Kate for sure. LOL.

Hehe
On the other note..it is infuriating that she is getting yet ANOTHER free house remodel! How many is this now? The girls room in the old house, the kitchen, new appliances, new furniture. It's unbelievable! So she gets a free remodel while Jon gets evicted, then sells stuff that the free stuff replaced!
Why am I imagining a scene in this episode when TFW gets
fahklempt talking about how much she loves Shoka, and her
family wasn't complete before he got there -- as they air a slide
show of pics of Shoka fresh from the groomers, kids hugging
him, looking to all the world like the most loved animal in the
world. Tissue, eye poke, dab dab dab...
ITA Virginia Pen Mom. Kate wrote that description. Typical. Makes it sound like she has so much "stuff" and she is passing on her junk to the less fortunate (mediocre locals). Judging from what she is selling, it will be crystal clear what TLC gave her. BTW, the tweet a while back about cleaning out drawers and fixing the dresser was part of this garage sale. She is probably unloading all the twin's bedroom furniture because TLC remodeled their bedroom and she got free new furniture for the twin's birthday. What gets me is that when filming or for publicity, she does something over the top and those kids have come to expect a big deal. When they don't film, things are pretty quiet. I believe she makes sure those kids are aware they get this stuff because they film (bribery).
Please take pictures or video at the circus of the star! Don't let a little sign no video or pictures please stop you! You are out in public, so what? Even on private property (the church), you are allowed to take pictures or video! If Steve or anybody comes over and asks you for your phone, or asks you to delete, just simply toss it in your good bra, smile and say, uh, no thank you.
Steve or anybody does not have the right to touch you, grab you, man handle you or grab your phone or camera out of your hand and try to delete. This is all against the law.
Oh brother. Look who commented on Y102 Facebook post:
Kate helped me out. And came to a fundraiser for a mother that lost her only two children in a tragic car accident
I admit I would not have gotten the turn out I did if not for her. And would not have raised the money I did. She asked for nothing !! In return.
ALWAYS GREATFUL!!!! To her for that.
(With typical sheeple spelling)
No chance of the radio station pulling out. Why? Because they're going to be on TV!!
Camera Crew, & Kate Friday Morning at Y102.
Ratings for Kate plus 8 were good enough for TLC to bring it back in December! Y102 will be a part of one of the upcoming shows.
Kate Gosselin was in the Y102 studio 2 years ago to help out with The "Yes I Can 5k" to benefit Special Olympics of Berks County. Despite what you hear...or think, Kate is very real. On and Off the air.
Kate contacted us in hopes of getting the word out to the berks and surrounding communities to visit at her Yard Sale with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Animal Rescue League of Berks County.
On Saturday the family who came to fame on television's "Jon & Kate Plus 8" will sell their outcast goodies at the Gosselin Family Yard Sale from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. at St. John's United Church of Christ, 591 N. Church Rd., Wernersville.
Dont hate Kate plus 8.

Exactly! Another reason why the kids "allegedly" don't want to go to their dad's. She can't beat him with her personality but she sure can beat him in materialistic things. Sheesh, it's not even with over the top luxuries, she's left him HOMELESS and FINANCIALLY ruined. And she's said she needs to do the show (and therefore this stupid garage sale)in order to raise those kids? People with far FAR less do it, and give back, without strings attached, or "WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I assume this means the PR attempt to paint TFW as a poor, struggling single mother who's been "piecing and patching" anything and everything in the name of survival has fizzled out.
Saying that her home's been remodeled doesn't exactly help support any claims to poverty. TFW could always try to claim the remodel as a charitable freebie done out of the goodness of people's hearts, but houses like hers don't get those kinds of freebie remodels. How can one remodel something that hasn't seen better days? TFW's ego won't let the house look run-down or fall into a state of disrepair. She may love the pity parties, but she probably hates looking second-class even worse.

Yard sales are popular by me, too. It's very common to see them, especially this time of year.
As I said, we had a multi-home garage sale last week and it was a huge hit.
DH and I had gently used, high end furniture and some "stuff". I advertised in the area's large paper, and my neighbors put an ad on Craigslist and made amazing signage to post around the area.
Neighbor had a basement full of "stuff" that she had to get rid of before moving next month.
She is a yard sale/"Chinese auction" nut! She had so much "stuff" that she gathered over the years, and she knows what sells, how to "stage" it and what to ask for it.
Initially, most of the crowds were across the street at her house, but I then made a few quick runs into my basement and garage and pulled out some of the smaller "stuff" to offer for sale, and it drew people over to my side of the street!
Mostly, people want "stuff". Cheap "stuff". They want a bargain, even if most of the time, they really don't need it.
That's what draws people in.
The higher end items will generally go very early if dealers show up with trucks to haul it away. Advertising that sort of thing as an estate sale will draw more dealers, but it also has other layers of complications that I didn't want to deal with.
If we sold, yay. If not, great morning to hang with our lovely neighbors!
Of our furniture, we sold our Crate + Barrel dining set- a really nice set that they still sell, although in a different finish. I was very happy to have sold it for a great deal, to people who fell in love with it.
Win/win.
The leftover pieces that didn't sell, I will give a go at selling on Ebay/Craigslist/Amazon.
If they don't sell, then we'll donate them.
Anything small stuff (clothes, dinnerware, cooking, decorations), we always donate.
The only reason we did this yard sale was because we had strength in numbers.
Oh, how popular are yard sales here? We had people cruising our neighborhood the day before! Had to Shoo! them away!
If it's another 10 years before we do another one, that's just fine with me!
My goal at this point is to not hoard shit we don't need. To really think about what we add to our house, and regularly go through our belongings to see what we can donate.
I used to consign good clothing- business and high end leisure- went I was single and struggling after my divorce.
Now, I'm fortunate to not *need* the money, and can write it off, even if it's pennies.
I'd rather someone else benefit.
At no time, EVER, did I sell something I got for free/as a gift.
"They must think their butt is a goldmine!" That would be Kate for sure. LOL.

And after I wrote that, I see this headline this morning: "6-pound gold 'Butte Nugget' up for sale in California." Are they sure that's not in Wernersville? : D
Yes, "unwanted" items sounds just awful. I think the typical

Exactly!
Testing. My comments (that I know you're all waiting with baited breath to read) seem to be going in to cyber space lately.
The "unwanted" items are probably stuff sent by fans, that didn't match up to Kate's standards.
The story about the yard sale is appearing on several very minor media sites, like Examiner, and they are all saying that Kate is doing the yard sale because she needs the money to support her kids. Some of them even published her quote about how she and her kids would just go away if they had enough money, painting the picture of poor, poor Kate.
I just wish one of them would write about her tweet yesterday about how "ALL MUST GO" because of the makeover/remodel. I even have a headline for them:
"Kate Gosselin: All must go--On with the show"
Where's Sue Buddy? We need another article from her.

Doesn't seem like they're going to back out of this to me. They'll kiss her ass from now until next week and do one of those local, on-site radio broadcasts. She'll only answer approved questions on Friday.

How does Uggs knows this? Did she poll people as they came in the door and ask if they only came for Kate?
Maybe lots of people turned out because they felt for the family and wanted to help.
dio 2 years ago to help out with The "Yes I Can 5k" to benefit Special Olympics of Berks County. Despite what you hear...or think, Kate is very real.

Oh I think Kate is very real. And that's a very real stick too.

After seeing how many "early birds" were cruising our yard sale on Friday, I totally agree!
The young lady who tweeted about her friend at Skyzone replied to the sheeple who pulled the jealous card. Kudos to her for standing up for herself and putting a sheeple(who used to be a hater) in her place.

@Shortnsaszy How old are you? Cause ya sound like you're 6, you're antagonizing a 14 year old. No I'm not jealous, so bye.
Maybe she'll be selling the Uggs at the yard sale ;)
I wonder if the camera crew is hauling her shit to the church? Wanna bet she called Chris the pap too?
another question: will the animal shelter she is donating to be present? I would certainly include them with some adoptable pets available ( if I was sincere).

I bet a lot of people will show up if they are filming. They will simply want to be on camera. So I would not be surprised if there is a moderate to large turnout. Also some will show up just to see what see looks like up close, what the kids look like in person, and how she handles herself.

I wonder if they will have to sign consent forms and CA's.
That's what she did for the kids' parties, plus, no cameras.
Would love to know if she kept all the stuff that didn't sell at the other yard sale.Will that stuff get shlepped out to see if it will sell? I'm talking about the younger stuff- bikes, easels etc. Has she has hung onto it and hasn't paid it foward-donated?

Well, I called it. I said TLC & Kate did a remodel of the home. Kate has tweeted it. Some of you said I was full of beans. And you can be sure it was filmed. Kate got tired of looking at the furniture she shared with Jon, so TLC & Kate decided to remodel & makeover, for 1. jump on the remodel/makeover wagon, and 2 for this new Kate/changed etc crap. We all know Kate will never change, this is Kates acting debut. What ever your trying Kate & TLC, Kate will always be: Dorian Gray Kate.
This also makes Kate look foolish, cause the articles are saying, Kate is doing this yard sale for money, but she just remodel/makeover her house. People who need money don't remodel.
Hmmmm...ok, I have a theory. A THEORY sheeple, not stating this as fact
I wonderrrrr if this is some type of community service she has to fulfill? Maybe there were charges of animal neglect/abuse?? Just a theory
Wonder if TLC will be putting out a DVD of the birthday special plus the December ones. If so, does TFW get a cut? I noticed you can't watch the birthday episodes on YouTube.

Via Time Magazine:
hy would Zellweger want to look like someone else when she makes money partially off of her appearance? That seems to be a bad decision. Just ask Jennifer Grey’s nose and Kate Gosselin’s new haircut. (Actually, please don’t ask Kate Gosselin anything, it’s better that we just keep on ignoring her for the time being.)

Renee, Renee... girlfriend, just own it!
She obviously got plastic surgery. She didn't just catch up on her sleep such that her eyes are not sooooooooooo rested, that they are permanently more open than ever before.
I get aging, and wanting to turn back the clock, or getting to a point where you have the means and desire to change your look, whatever that means.
But this. This is disappointing.
If you're so happy, secure and living a better life, doesn't that include being brazenly honest?
Don't we women deserve to say, "I don't give a shit what you think about it! I'm happy. That's what matters"?
I give credit to Joan Rivers. She always owned it, and in fact, poked fun at herself.
Now that's embracing it.
I wonder if Kate will be one of those high-priced yard sales where people overvalue what their stuff is worth? When I used to shop yard sales regularly, a reasonable price was ten cents on the dollar.
********
You can't try to project sentimental value, or even "real" value at a yard sale.
You price it to move, and be happy that someone takes your "stuff" away!
If you're selling on Ebay, sure, you can price your items according to their value because people will bid. But at yard sales, just be happy that you've got some coin in your pocket.
I sold a 14" All Clad non-stick pan last week. I priced it at $10, but saw that people weren't interested, so I said "$5", and sold!
Eh, it's been sitting in my garage, rarely if ever used, for years.
Enjoy, I say!
Renee, Renee... girlfriend, just own it!
*****************************
Amen!
This is right up there with "a good bra"
I wonder if her 'repaired' dehumidifier will be at the sale since she may have gotten a brand new one in the remodel.
I think yard/estate sales are popular around here too. The neighborhood up the hill has an HOA that allows yard sale only one weekend per year. And you would think it's spectacular Christmas lights or uber-Halloween for all the traffic. We don't have sidewalks, and I went for a run on the Saturday of the sale and was dodging traffic the whole way. When I got back, hubby wanted to walk the dogs and I said it wasn't a good idea, but he wouldn't listen. We each ended up carrying a dog to expedite the traffic dodging. Grrrrrr.
Wouldn't it be something if some locals went and then saw stuff they donated to her, for sale? Haha!
When I first read the notice, I thought the following wording was odd:
"A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Local Animal Rescue League."
She Capitalizes "Local Animal Rescue League" like that's their name, but I'm sure it isn't. Was she too lazy to look up the name of the actual organization that she is going to donate her pennies to?
It would seem much more natural to say "Animal Rescue League of Berks County", as the radio station did. Thanks Kate is a Twit for that quote (post # 40).
Perhaps the difference is that the radio station is addressing locals / potential shoppers, and K is addressing People magazine readers?

If your intent is to make money garage sales are usually a terrible way to do it, unless perhaps you do a joint garage sale with several other houses.
You are better off throwing things on Amazon and biding your time. You are also better off donating them and taking the write off. There is a DV shelter here that takes just about anything and everything, from clothes to kitchen stuff to furniture to toys. You can unload all your stuff there and write off the value. It is highly unlikely you would ever get anything close to the real value by trying to sell it to neighbors. You make out better by taking the write off.
*****
I agree that garage sales are a tough way to make any real money. Most people browsing at garage sales want to pay practically nothing. I've had some really nice boy's jeans that I was asking $2/pair for - and people still turned up their nose and wanted to offer me 50 cents a pair.
I did a garage sale with a friend once, and her husband overhead someone offering a ridiculously low price on some garden equipment. Being the cranky guy he is, he walked over and said "I'd rather throw it away than sell it to you for that price."
Kate would never do this type of rummage sale except on TLC's dime and with the combined work force of her kids plus TLC staff. Anything to get her ugly mug on television. And even with it being filmed, she wants to keep most of the proceeds! She's getting paid to film, she's having others do all the work, and that still isn't enough for her - she wants the few bucks that will be generated by selling her used clothing and some furniture. Pathetic. I hope no one shows up.

I do think however that as a caring person, it would be nice to think about whether what your saying is going to pick at old scabs and bring something terrible up all over again to a family who has moved on. I don't like the Clintons, but I do have to give them credit for making a big effort to try to move on from this and stay united as a couple, and he either isn't having affairs anymore or if he is he's being much more discreet. Fair enough. They have moved on from it and they don't keep bringing it up, and now they have a new grandchild to dote over and other things on the horizon. Life is good, and it is kind of obnoxious, and frankly, rude, to have that other woman who keeps sticking her mug out there making comments and reminding everyone of it. For Chelsea actually especially. None of this was HER fault and I imagine she wants to look forward not backward right now. Monica is a nuisance in 2014.
*******
I haven't been paying attention to whatever Monica Lewinsky is saying, especially if it has to do with her shenanigans waaaaaaaaaay back in 1998. That's 16 years ago and one would hope all parties involved would have moved on by now.
The Clintons have obviously worked it out in their marriage. Their marriage is none of my business, but from what they show publicly, they appear to be happy with however they've agreed to arrange their marriage. Neither one appears to want to get divorced. They love their daughter and their new grandbaby. I'd say life is pretty good for them overall.
I would wish for Lewinsky that she could move on with her life as well, instead of feeling the need to bring up old trash and re=hash it. I have no idea if she's married (if so, wouldn't this be unpleasant for her husband to hear about again?), has children (same question), or what sort of professional career she has. I think she should focus on the present and try to enjoy her life to the fullest, rather than dredging up her past poor choices.
Tucker's Mom (#73), when you mentioned "sentimental value"
regarding yard sales, I thought of one of the twins being upset
that Mom was going to sell a Christmas ornament she'd gotten
from Grandpa, but TFW said something like, it just made a
mess, and had "dustilies" (a former poster's name!) coming
off of it. Never mind that Grandpa had passed, and that the
ornament had special meaning to the child.
But who wants to wager there'll be tears Saturday, when someone
buys something and TFW gets all tender hearted about it? With
the cameras rolling, of course. I agree with whoever said there'll
be TLC plants there -- told specifically what to buy, and why.
TFW is like Pig Pen from the Peanuts cartoon. But instead of
dirt, there's this fetid cloud of insincerity that hovers around her.
Tucker's Mom, no one seems to be clear on what's going on. A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier has been shot, unclear whether his is injured or was killed. It's sickening. Parliament Hill is in lock down.
Star Magazine has the eviction story, from the named source--the people who rented to him:
http://starmagazine.com/2014/10/22/exclusive-jon-gosselin-hits-rock-bottom/
It is a pretty damning article, which includes a kitten left behind amidst trash and damage from his (or Liz's) dog. According to Jon, some of it isn't true, and he has already filed something with the courts. As always, my heart goes out to his kids, who really came up short in the parent department. Whether the story is true or not, or partially true, it paints a picture of a pretty unstable person, who does not seem to be able to support himself, let alone 8 children. I know some here will dispute the story, but, unlilke most stories, the source is named and on the record.

I hope so too, Millicent. How exciting can a yard sale be that it's worth filming? whoop de doo.
On top of that she gets a spot on the radio? To do what, tell people how much good a portion of their money is going to do for animal rescue league? People are aware of their efforts, they don't need to be told.
She'll spew her lies about her great love of animals and what a wonderful blessing Shoka has been, meanwhile thinking everyone is as stupid as her sheep to forget about her treatment of Nala and Shoka four years ago. The cage incident was cruel and disgusting. She has her freaking nerve to think it's been forgotten.
Y102 should be clued in about her history before they put a mike in front of her.
Tucker's Mom said:
Linda Tripp used Lewinsky, got 15 minutes of fame and a new face (didn't help much).
*********************
You nailed it. Lewinsky was a foolish young woman. There are many of us who might look back on our early 20's and cringe at some of the choices we made. (I am one of those - but fortunately my foolish choices did not involve anyone famous.) She was played for a fool by Linda Tripp, a person who really was ugly inside and out.
I would rather a parent hit "rock bottom" than exploit their children. The article also has inherently unreliable sources like the one saying he traded his rights to not pay child support (you can't do that or all dead beats would do that to get out of support, think about it) and that there is not enough room for his kids to stay at his house. I work in family law and we allow gaggles of kids to stay in very tiny houses all. the. Time. It is illegal to discriminate against a parent based on housing and I trust the courts are well aware of that. I don't even have to discuss my client's housing size because it simply isn't an issue. I don't think the fact that a parent is struggling financially like hundreds of thousands of parents in and of itself makes them a bad parent.
On the Y102 website, this is in Jackie's bio: "Selfish people have
no rhyme or reason in my world." And yet TFW has somehow
won her over.

They will either need to sign forms or there will be notice posted that filming is happening and by entering the premises you are consenting to being filmed. That is not a "Kate" thing that is standard practice. It is a legal requirement to gain consent if filming for commercial purposes.
After reading the article on Jon I'd say that it speaks volumes about TFW since she has so much and has not stepped up to offer help.
I don't think the fact that a parent is struggling financially like hundreds of thousands of parents in and of itself makes them a bad parent.

It doesn't. What makes a bad parent is a lying con artist who uses her kids to pad her bank account and dupes people into handing money over to her so she can live in the lap of luxury.

We have a "cranky" friend who had a yard sale last year. He prices a new/barely used Ralph Lauren polo shirt for $3.
A guy offered him $1.
Friend refused.
"It's Ralph Lauren! Hardly/never used!"
The guy refused to pay more than $1, and our friend said he'd wash his car with the damn shirt before he gave it away for $1.
Guy didn't believe him, so friend wet his shirt and starting wiping down his car!
That's what you call a lose/lose ;-)

You just happened to remember a story from the Reading Eagle News from 1994, even though you live in Canada? Get real. You went looking for dirt on the guy because the family dared to speak out about Saint Jon.
What does his arrest history have to do with Jon not paying his rent, trashing the home and leaving behind a kitten?
I bet TLC will match what Kate makes from the rummage sale, so Kate does not look like a fool, if she does not make any money. Or TLC will give Kate some money and tell her to tell the the viewers that they made a lot of money, when they probably didn't. To save face.
When Kate had the last rummage sale, didn't she have a lot of stuff left over, that did not sell and didn't she get testy about what was left over? Was there a lot of people last time?
So, TLC paid for a remodel & makeover, Kate instead of donating the used crap, she is going to sell it, under the phrase: I need the money to buy the kids things and things for the house, so I am keeping the majority of the money and donating a portion to help animals. Kate it makes you look & sound GREEDY! I'm sure Kate will over price things.
What will Kate do when people want to haggle and then walk away. And, if I remember right, in the last garage sale all she did was stand around and bark orders at Jon while he was busy lifting, carrying, doing. It was all Jon's fault that things weren't perfect. Does she blame the kids this time around?

------------------------------
I have to agree with you on this. Jon is 38? and can't seem to get a handle on a job/career that will sustain him. He tends to pick the wrong woman, which may or may not be part of his downfall. Maybe his parents spoiled him for too long, who knows?
This does not take away from the fact that I think TFW is a shameless reality person who thinks she should film the kids who have put in endless hours of filming to support HER and other opportunities. But with these two at the helm, these kids will not fare well at all. And not because of money, but the fact that they both seem to put themselves first in so many instances.
I know this will not be a popular opinion but with both of them being close to 40 with 8 kids, they both seem to have missed the boat on supporting these kids on a lot of levels.
Hey, I just realized this funfest is supposed to be 7 hours long!
Ain't no way TFW is gonna stand on her feet that long without
lots and lots of breaks. Will there be a special Star Potty in the
church that only she can use, with Steve standing outside to
guard her? Maybe Deanna and Pumpkinbottom will be there as friends/paid helpers. TFW may make a few sales for the cameras, and futz with a few items and sigh about how tired she is, but
I don't think she'll be out there dealing with the crowd for 7 hours.
And if she is, her real personality is bound to emerge. Which,
as many here have predicted, may be exactly what TLC has
in mind.

Thank you! She is only doing a yard sale because TLC wants her to appear as donor to another cause. She will sell items she was gifted and never paid a penny for, while trying to make her appear to be a good Samaritan. And of course the kids will be involved, as not too many people really give a damn about selfish TFW anymore.
She really is a selfish shyster.
Star contacted Jon and Jon said, What the owners are saying is not completely true, he insists. Now they are in deep trouble. I have already filed with the courts, I have nothing more to say about the situation.
I wonder what he has filed. Why didn't Liz take the kitten with her if it was hers or find it a good home when she moved out.

Someone's arrest history for something as serious as domestic violence goes to their credibility. Especially when the other side is saying that's not what happened. Funny I find myself saying "enough already " to these sort of private stories that are completely irrelevant and none of anyone's business. HE'S not exploiting the kids and doesn't deserve such scrutiny.
I find it hard to believe that Jon would be incapable of having his kids for overnight visits.
They make it sound like he's living in a cardboard box.
I'm glad he's not using his kids, but I can't help wishing that we'd hear a really positive update that he's stable and seeing all the kids regularly.
Is everyone having to go through these verification words and letters in order to post?
Just curious...

Yes, exactly what I thought Admin. The Reading Eagle story isn't relevant to what's happening with Jon right now, I just thought it was worth noting this couple has a less than stellar reputation in the area. I like to consider the source when I read these tabloids.
Get real. You went looking for dirt on the guy because the family dared to speak out about Saint Jon.

Damn straight I did. Live with it. And I didn't "happen to remember" anything, I looked it up intentionally. Don't like it? Too bad.
Sorry Auntie Ann that you were blasted by remembering something about somebody. Some people have photographic memory or brilliant at remembering things.
If the kitten was Liz's, she should of taken responsibility for it and found it a good home or took it to as kate refers to as Local Animal Rescue before she moved. Maybe possible that she left it on purpose to tick off Jon.
Ironic that TFW is lovingly giving to Local Animal Rescue, a "small portion" and Jon is evicted and leaves a kitten to survive on it's own.
For Pete's sake those kids are going to be horrible teased about him being homeless, no room for them at the inn, and now their daddy abandoned a kitten. Lord, help them!
Of course no one should leave a kitten behind but you're assuming it's true. Jon said their story is not all true. Maybe it was a wild stray or maybe he thought Liz was coming back, who knows and it's not our business what the plan was. He rarely responds to all the wild accusations kate and her sheeple make but this time he spoke up and said no that's not true, which suggests this has gone too far for him. I have no idea what parts he is disputing. He didn't say and it's not his obligation to tell you. That's for the courts to sort out. You may be getting upset for nothing. I also don't think a six week stint on a small cable reality show you filmed over a year ago means your finances and rental history are public fodder forever. Absolutely not. It has NOTHING to do with anything and is none of your business. Unless he is using his children's money to fund his rent, it's none of your concern. The public doesn't demand Brad and Angelina disclose their rental history. It's not our business. His landlord chose to stay with a very malidorous character. I also assume they are the same page about this dispute. That alone goes directly to her credibility. Of course it does.
Next thing you know they'll be saying that Jon beats small children.
Oh wait...that was his ex.
Of course they don't out the WHOLE story about evil evil horrible no good Jon G. What fun is that ? And bitch face is prob snickering to herself and patting herself on the back for donating a portion of the proceeds

Tucker's Mom, no one seems to be clear on what's going on. A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier has been shot, unclear whether his is injured or was killed.
---------------------------------
CBC has an update; the soldier has died.
CBC also has an article with tweets from members of parliament saying that they are safe, and in some cases giving their location. Commenters are pointing out that it would be safer and more sensible to text that to their friends and family instead of putting it out in public. Some also tweeted pictures of police cars outside parliament. Are they nuts?
I agree with Ex Nurse - those kids got shortchanged in the parent department. A lot of Jon's problems are his own doing. He couldn't have foreseen how his very public missteps would follow him, but if he hadn't been flying to France or Vegas or whatever for appearances, appearing stoned with his girlfriend at the time, staging a burglary (according to NYPD), planning a clothing line worn by the kids, etc., there would be nothing to follow him. He is probably a very nice guy. But it's been five years - he needs to figure it out and get it together already!
So...does anyone think that a festering pustule of negativity would burst open into a gaping maw of a famehole?

She will likely be laying on the ground saying how tired she is. (Much like the last episode where all of the work was done for her in advance.) It is really disgusting how she tries to claim credit for all of the work that goes into these episodes; OH - she is so tired.
We all know she is nothing without the kids. And she knows it too. And therein should lies her shame in using her kids at this juncture. She has had plenty of time to come up with a career.

With all due respect, I do think Jon is "part" of the problem. He has been haphazard and all over the place. He is not a fame whore, but has a long way to go to establish a steady way to support his kids and have a household to visit with his kids. JMO

************************
Yes, and I wish I knew what it is all about. I'm always suspicious about things like that. Admin?
**Ironic that TFW is lovingly giving to Local Animal Rescue, a "small portion" and Jon is evicted and leaves a kitten to survive on it's own.**
Exactly what I was going to say Redbirdsings. This article doesn't really pass the smell test.
What is up with the "put this in so we know you're not a robot"?
I think both Kate and Jon need to get real jobs. We all know what Kate's problem is and I really think that Jon's problem is that he had a taste of the good life and wants it back. Jon was spoiled growing up and he's still spoiled now. He, like Kate, wants things handed to him because he was a star. He seems to be a good dad and seems to love his kids, however he lacks direction and at his age he needs to get it together. The kids really drew the short end of the stick with both parents.
So, TLC paid for a remodel & makeover, Kate instead of donating the used crap, she is going to sell it, under the phrase: I need the money to buy the kids things and things for the house, so I am keeping the majority of the money and donating a portion to help animals
I think before we jump to any conclusions about a whole-house makeover, remodel, TLC paying for everything, dumping all of their furniture with Kate keeping most of the profits, TLC giving Kate money to make it look like a successful sale, we wait and see exactly what goes down.
"What does his arrest history have to do with Jon not paying his rent, trashing the home and leaving behind a kitten?"
********************
Character, truthfulness, and the chance to sell a story to the tabloids. I think that's enough. A leopard doesn't change his spots, no matter how much time has elapsed.
If this is not true, I hope that this time Jon sues the pants off these people for defamation.
They will either need to sign forms or there will be notice posted that filming is happening and by entering the premises you are consenting to being filmed. That is not a "Kate" thing that is standard practice. It is a legal requirement to gain consent if filming for commercial purposes.
********************
Is this inside, or outside on the church parking lot?
I think there's no question Jon is immature and could stand to have a better life plan for how to raise eight kids. However that is a separate issue and irrelevant to whether these sort of private stories should be out there to the masses. IMO they should not.
Thanks Redbird (121). They do not bother me. Jon's record isn't that clean either, but I'm not going to put too much stock into the Star article anyway.
Besides, there were no photos of the interior of his house or an orphaned kitten or amputated butterfly wings ...
I agree, there's no need to put these negative stories out about any person who is living a private life. Kate does not really count because she tweets constantly about the kids/her life. But Jon needs to grow up and make better decisions (i.e., renting a place for the long term that only 'he' can afford - not he and a girlfriend/roomie, staying single long enough to figure out who HE is, etc.).

Yes, how very sad. This has been a horrible day in Ottawa.
There was a story about this on the local news tonight. It will be outside. ARL said they received a call "out of the blue" about this. A local was asked her opinion and said Kate is a celebrity monger, and she needs to get a real job. Pretty much most people's attitude around here!
Admin, I take your point that Jon is entitled to privacy. However, I would argue that this directly effects the stability of his family, which is discussed at considerable length. I see this as a consequence of his choices--when he was employed and stable, he managed to stay out of the limelight. If you were or are a public figure, then there will always be negative tabloid stories. Whether intentional or not, Jon was in on the decision to expose his and his kids' lives to constant scrutiny. The genie doesn't go back in the bottle just because he is basically a good guy and loves his kids.
Whether or not he is better than TFW or not (a very low bar--almost everyone else on the planet is), because he doesn't abuse them, doesn't change the fact that he has some serious character flaws that prevents him from being a stable parent.
I don't know what is true, or what is not true in that article. Really hoping the abandoned kitten part isn't true! And neither does anyone else. I don't understand the backlash any time Jon is called into question, especially when there is an article in a publication that is relevant to the discussions here. Why get so upset? It is just an opinion.

I agree. We're not taking this new news at face value, however, it fits Jon's pattern.
Between Kate's continuing to sell the children's privacy and making them earn money, and Jon's lack of stability, this is one of the worst conundrums I've seen.

@MiloandJack I read on Gawker the source was the landlord. Story has to be legitimate. :( @ScallywagNYC @Kateplusmy8
lol! Oh, sure it does. Let's see. Robert reported actually witnessing Kate leaving her dog to run on the highway, and that was totally false. A landlord sells a story to the tabloids and it's credible. What an upside down universe in which these sheeple live.
I thought "Sandie" was just a bit smarter than the average sheeple. Guess I thought wrong.
Ex nurse I have to totally disagree. The genie should be able to be put back in the bottle if you have made very active and dedicated efforts to stop exploiting your children. He has done just that for something like five years now. For the children's sake it must go back. I have always, always said that the day Kate stops exploiting her children and wants to "go back" she should be given the same. exact. courtesy. I stand by that.
Wow, you let them have it and it was right above mine.
Oh, my gosh, Auntie Ann! I hate to admit it but, I laughed so hard at the amputated butterfly wings. Caught me off guard.
I hope Jon has a case of defamation against them and sues the pants off his former landlords. I am sure that the landlords got a nice chunk of change for exchange of their experience with Jon. Even on the Star Magazine website says, We pay!

I must have missed whoever got ''so upset''. I don't understand why any comment in Jon's favor, or refusing to swallow whole what is said about him in some tabloid is ''backlash''.
I DO agree that whatever is said for against Jon really IS ''just an opinion''.
I just found that hard to believe that when the landlady found the kitten, they adopted it. you would think she would of took it to the animal shelter.
Midnight Madness (#143), I'm not sure TFW is relieved. After all,
free boots are free boots! If she could snag herself another pair,
it might be worth it to offer a limp handshake and a tweetable
photo with Mrs. Uggs, and let Steve keep her at bay for the rest

If you are selling items you got for free while getting paid to hold the yard sale, then the sale will be a money maker. It's basic math, TFW.
Notice how it has gone from remodel to major construction?

If yard sales are not money makers why not just donate directly the items to an appropriate charity or donate cash? They'll make out better.
I hate when I agree with kate. No yard sales typically aren't money makers for most people.
I dont think the lesson is you should purge your crap. I think the lesson is don't be such a greedy glutton to acquire so much unwanted stuff in the first place. Wasn't she bragging just last Christmas about the piles of presents they got? If you are drowning in your clutter that would be a good place to cut back.
Kate is disgusting to tweet about that cat implying the landlady comments are correct. She doesn't have the foggiest idea what exactly went down with that cat any more than we do. Nobody but who was there knows and Jon was clear there is a factual dispute here, not to mention the questionable background of those making the accusations. She doesn't speak to Jon or Liz or go to his house. She doesn't know what the real story is. Gimme a break. And THAT Is what I say "enough already" too. When she jumps in like that with such passive aggressive comments it just shows how much joy she gets out of kicking her ex when he is down. It's really sick.
So yard sales aren't moneymakers, and yet TFW is still only donating
a percentage of the proceeds to charity? And will collect a paycheck
for filming the episode? Wow.
She's getting defensive, and it's only Wednesday. She should be grateful something has taken the heat off of her for Anklegate!

The hypocrisy that Kate has not problem piling onto tabloid reports, but God forbid anyone do that when news about her hits the fan.
How about saying, "I can't tell you if that's true or not"?
I love how she can't imagine abandoning a pet... oh the irony.
This would make a good Sue Buddy or Radar post.
She admits she hadn't heard that. So why would she assume without independently verifying it something so nasty about their father is true based on the tabloids? He himself disputed the allegations. This from a woman who famously poo poos tabloids. But when they say soemthing nasty about Jon all of a sudden she's assuming it's true? She is outright ridiculous. Outright absurd.
Someone should ask Kate if she knows she'll make almost no money doing this yard sale, then why is she doing it, exactly??
Hmmmmmmm???
I'm curious if that book TFMJG has had on her nightstand for umpteen months, and never has been read yet, well show up in the yard sale? Silly me, it probably wad thrown out before TFMJG headed home that day. Whenever the aspiring author gave it to TFMJG.
hey, does anyone have a good recipe for eggplant? I was given two, have no idea what to do with them.
I'm beginning to wonder if Kate knew all about the story about Jon. It seems like too much a coincidence that the first article came out a week ago, and then the day after the yard sale is announced, another story comes out with more details.
The landlord and his wife seem like shady characters, and I wouldn't put it past them to contact Kate and try to get some money out of Kate, first. Of course, she would believe everything they said about Jon. Hence the part about making a donation to the Animal Rescue League with a portion of the proceeds from the yard sale.
She probably was the one who told them to contact the Star(which is owned by the same company that owns ROL) to get the story out there.
Kate gets really mouthy on Twitter when she thinks she's back on top of the world, and it's hilarious to see her handful of admirers falling all over themselves patting her on the back.
I'm already longing for the day when TLC cuts her loose again. Because it WILL happen.

Sorry Tuckers Mom. Our local station did a short segment on the upcoming sale. They interviewed a lady from Animal Rescue League. She stated someone called her out of the blue about this yard sale. But she is happy to take the donation. They interviewed two regular people. One said she liked the Animal Rescue League. The other one said Kate is a celebrity monger, and she needs to get a real job. This was on WFMZ t 5:30 tonight.
My husband heard there will be other people selling that day, but I don't know if this is true.
Jon was always the neat and tidy one when he was with Kate. He also was the animal lover, a title she is trying to claim.. I wouldn't believe the whole story about the kitten or the mess without proof.
Here is the link to the news report about the yard sale.
The lady from the animal rescue said she got an email out of the blue about the donation. She said kate emailed her and said she wanted to donate because they took care of her dog when he escaped one time.
WHATTT???
Then the lady at the end that said that kate was a celebrity monger was hilarious and I KNOW it made kate horribly mad. God help the children!

Egg plant lasagna is delicious!! Make sure though to salt the eggplant for at least an hour and dab the water off. I use Danny Boome's which I think is the first to pop up.
Kate popping in oh so conveniently to lament the poor kitten just shed this whole thing in an entirely different light. The only thing that could be more obvious is if the kitten were a baby seal.
"Damn straight I did. Live with it. And I didn't "happen to remember" anything, I looked it up intentionally. Don't like it? Too bad."

LOL!! You tell 'em, Auntie Ann! Word of advice to the drive-bys. Don't get Auntie riled up. She may walk softly, but she carries a big stick (and not the one that's been up Kate's behind for several years).
ladybug...I really don't think that anyone should attend the garage sale with the idea of protesting or rallying against TLC. The kids will be there. They don't need that kind of drama.
I get the feeling that blogger thinks I'm r2d2. It took me seven (seven, not EIGHT) times to actually be able to read the number/letter combo. Everything was muddled, or else it's time for reading glasses.
@Kateplusmy8: @MiloandJack @ScallywagNYC I didn't know this :( makes me very very sad. My kids talked abt/loved that cat. Can't imagine abandoning a pet:(
Correct me if I'm wrong, but technically speaking, TFW abandoned both Shoka and Nala when she returned them to the breeder.

Sounds like we are probably right about the basement being turned into a new room for the twins. Why else would there be construction that caused her to lose major storage space.
#Stoprumors huh? So she's admitting that she doesn't need money and is not piecing & patching also, they're rumors when they're about her but anything negative printed about Jon is gospel. We get it Kate, you're rich so why don't you do the human thing and give Jon a helping hand. Rhetorical question because we all know the answer.
Tucker's Mom, babaganoush is a delicious and easy dip to make: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/babaganoush-recipe.html
Eggplant parmigiana is also easy and tasty, if you already have some marinara sauce and cheese!
It's just as bad to be such an irresponsible dog owner he's running away all the time. Didn't robert say even he had to see to Shoka when he ran away for the umpteenth time? She doesn't get that she is awful with animals. It's not rocket science to make sure your dog stays on your property. Other families manage.
A kitten. Please.
Fame Monger lol oh sh$t. Love that local!!
Strange that some of us aren't getting that 'captcha' or whatever it's called prompt before posting.
redbirdsings, did you catch that the ARL took care of Shoka when he 'escaped?' Nice that they're getting a donation, hope it's substantial.
One of one of my favorite things and easy too w eggplant are eggplant stacks...just google "eggplant stacks" delish!
I always like to salt the eggplant after slicing, it sweats out the excess moisture, and also all the bitterness, just sprinkle some salt on both sides and set them on paper towels for a bit. Then rinse off the salt and pat dry.
As for Kittengate, what happened to "no pictures = no proof," fans?
Slice the eggplant, lightly salt and let sit (to draw extra moisture out). Pat dry, dredge in flour, dip in egg and bread crumbs and fry. Make sure your oil is hot enough because if not the eggplant will absorb a lot of it. There's nothing better than eggplant hot out of the fryer. You can dip in sauce of your choice but I like it with just salt and pepper.
Can't imagine abandoning a pet:(
========================
She abandoned Shoka when she left him alone, running down the highway. She is totally, absolutely, a despicable human being.
"and let Steve keep her at bay for the rest
of the day! "
==================
LOL! And what would Steve do with Mrs. Uggs for the rest of the day? Lead her to the supply of gently used supportive, good bras? Heaven knows it might be a worthwhile purchase for her, and she could have her buddy Kate next to her bosom for the rest of her life.
"Besides, there were no photos of the interior of his house or an orphaned kitten or amputated butterfly wings ..".
=====================
...or a pentagram in the center of the living room, indicating satanic worship. I wonder if the landlords took photos. This is always advisable in case there is any kind of landlord/tenant conflict that involves the return of a security deposit, or civil complaint brought by either party. I would think that if there were photos and they were sold to the publications, they could have commanded more money.
According to one of the dumber sheeple, if there were no photos, it didn't happen, so what's the story here?
By the way, I'm just waiting for the robot interrogator to display "Keight Sux"
Per K's tweet: My kids talked abt/loved that cat.
I looked at the Star article again, and I can't see any description of the cat except it was "a tiny kitten". Can K really say the the alleged tiny kitten was "that cat" that the kids talked about? Especially since, according to the sheeple, the kids haven't been to Jons since long before the "tiny kitten" was born? Or do all cats/kittens look alike to K?
And if K is so darned concerned about the alleged kitten, why didn't SHE adopt it. Since her kids love it so much.

Can't one of these parents reliably do right by these kids on a consistent basis? A case could be made for either of them doing right or wrong during any given month but the big picture shows they both fall shamefully short when it comes to childrearing following divorce.

Seems like when she actually does make the donation, she could then say it was because they took such good care of her dog.

It's a bit annoying, but at least admin doesn't have to sort through all those annoying "My mother make $xxxx a month on the internet" posts that plague so many other, unmoderated sites.
One time a landlord did the same thing to me -- went in before my move out was complete. I told him I would bring the keys by when I was out and everything was cleaned. He, instead, went into the apartment before I had a chance to clean it. I had paid rent through the end of the month, I told him I would be completely done by the 26th--the last weekend of the month. He went in on the 25th. There were still bags of trash waiting to go out. The oven hadn't been cleaned. My condiments were still in the refrigerator. He cleaned it all out before I got off work and could get over there to finish my move. I met him there when I showed up with all my cleaning supplies. I was pissed, and a little mortified. It was a mess.
I suspect the exact same thing happened to Jon.
I'll see if the default settings got changed with having to verify you are ahi man to post. I know they have the option but our spam problem has never been so bad that I needed to turn that on.

That is appalling and completely illegal. Most states absolutely prohibit a landlord from entering your residence absent absolute utter emergency (like pipes are spraying water everywhere or fire is burning the place down).
That is your house, even if they own it.
I see Kate can't learn to shut up. Kate just tweeted that: FYI: yard sales don't make much money. Purging is gr8 organizational skill, especially after construction/losing major storage space.
So we gone from makeover to remodel to construction of losing major storage space.
Boy, Kate is really digging that BS hole, the one that says I need the money for buying things for the kids and house. And also predicts that she won't make any money. Kate is a tool!
Oddly, I'm not getting the prompt to verify I'm ah uman. Maybe it's only if you're not signed in??

I had the same thought. It's just a kitten, can't be that old. Goodness gracious, for kids who never see Jon they sure got attached quick. So much show that they're even talking about the kitten after? OOPS. I do like when she goes off on Jon because she never thinks and then stuff like that happens.
If the kids talked about, and loved that kitten so much, so didn't Kate try and adopt it for them to have?
&&&
Same question. She admits they have so many animals already, what's one more? If this is just so tragic, YOU adopt it. Cats aren't that much trouble at all.
B.S. She doesn't have a clue what did or didn't happen with that kitten or the foggiest idea whether there is a grain of truth to the cat incident. She saw an opportunity to trash Jon and she took it. The truth is irrelevant to her. Heaven forbid she might call or text Jon to ask HIM what happened before assuming the worse. This is an obsessed parental alienator.
Nice. You've said you're not a cat person. I guess that means you're okay with someone leaving a kitten behind to die. Would you feel the same way about a puppy? Yeah, I didn't think so. Please indeed.
&&&
Huh? You completely misinterpreted what I meant. Of course I'm not okay with leaving any animal behind to die. I love all animals. I haven't the foggiest idea that even happened in the first place.
I grew up with a cat. I loved him like a baby. I don't recall saying I'm not a cat person, although I don't currently own them and do enjoy dogs better. I don't dislike cats.
What I meant by "a kitten, please" was that it's just too perfect that the story is about a kitten, because they are just so helpless and adorable. Like I joked, the only thing that would make this story harder to believe is if it were a baby seal. I find the whole thing inherently not credible, and Kate chiming in to offer her stupid two cents just adds to the lack of credibility and makes one question whether she had something to do with this little stunt.
I'm not sure how you interpreted that OTHER thing out of what I said. Beats me.
Radar On Line's story about Jon and the kitten has mysteriously disappeared from their site. Wonder what that's all about.
Well this is weird I went into blogger settings and the "word verification" setting for comments is set to OFF just like always! So odd that people are being prompted to do that when it's decidedly turned off. I wonder if it's some sort of blogger glitch that they'll fix soon.
I have lawn boys and pool girls, but I don't know that we have any IT techs on staff.
Kate's tweet has to be one of the most disgusting things I've read from her in awhile. Why wouldn't she just ignore the Jon rumor, or at least tweet, "I'd prefer not to make a comment about this." She can't do it. She sees an opportunity to slam him, and she does. She and Milo would be very compatible. Neither one thinks before they tweet, and neither one can shutupshutupshutup. They can't sit on their hands. It's like some force is pulling them to Twitter and an evil voice is saying, "Do it. Do it. Do it." And they obey.

@Kateplusmy8 @Kateplusmy8 hypocritical that you ask people not to believe media when you have done so yourself, Kate

What's unbelievable about this that she ADMITS she knows nothing about it. It's not like she said well yes I know about that, it's unfortunate. That's different.
And yet after all her whining about how awful the tabloids are, she just goes ahead and believes exactly what they say.
What the heck? That just proves how much she STILL hates him. She completely abandoned her mantra (all paps lie!) in order to insult him. She never thinks. She just never thinks.
She should have said nothing at all. Or heaven forbid ask the sheeple to please respect the privacy of her children's father.
