TLC Block Party
Kate, Mady and Cara will be in attendance at TLC's promotional event today in Chicago.

«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 1480 Newer› Newest»Layla (#198), maybe TFW will show up in a future spot, holding a sign that says, "I Am TLC's Sidepiece."
the seemingly impossible task of planning a family trip,

Ah, yes, the key word "seemingly", which is to say that a team of producers and assistants will coordinate the filming.
Much like Kate and her "sudden" planning of a luxury beach vacation when her 100K+ kitchen was being gifted to her.
These amazing mothers! How DO they do it???????

I am watching a show on TLC (48 Hours), and they just had one of the "I am" campaign ads on. Oddly enough, Kate was nowhere to be seen. The other "talent" was still there--but she was cut out. How very interesting.

I wonder if TLC's finally got the hint that the general public want to see Kate about as much as a turd in a Jacuzzi. Maybe even less.
I've been watching the Olympics, but am tired of the selective coverage. Swimming, volleyball, gymnastics. All wonderful, but NBC is completely ignoring all the other wonderful athletes.
I'm watching on (my cable's) channel 90. Watched amazing archery this morning. Who knew Leonardo DiCaprio was such an amazing shot?

This almost looks like a screw up, like they meant to send them photo 112 and instead sent them 121.

Sounds like that is what happened.
Can't change it because of the deadline.
Poor kids.
Layla,
I LOVE 3 Bean Salad and it is required in my many ingredient salads!
Which Dollar store? Dollar Tree? Dollar General?
Family Dollar? Is is READ 3 Bean Salad?

Thank you for realizing that's not me. I don't know who is using my name, but it's happened a couple times lately.
It looks like TLC is airing the new Tyler Perry show "Too Close To Home" starting on August 22nd. I might actually watch that one--it looks interesting. And of course I support TLC airing something other than child-exploiting reality TV crap. Counting On is starting on August 23, and Toddlers and Tiaras (UGH!) on the 24th. So, what are they going to use as a lead-in for K+8 in October? That show can't stand on its own, and if they don't get The Little Couple back by then, they better come up with something fast. Although…wouldn't it be fun to watch what happens if K+8 has to air without a strong lead-in? The ratings plummet would be hilarious! Let's see if TLC can pull something off. Don't be surprised if the show gets postponed yet again.

She barely shows affection to her own. Unless there are cameras around, of course.

Layla, I saw the promo the other night and i missed the first of it and watched to see if I could see her. I didn't see her and I just had a feeling she wasn't on the promo. Now, you have confirmed it.
Maybe they did a Joey Gladstone. Cut. It. Out!
You are right. It is very interesting.
Localyocul, good to see you posting!
Tucker's Mom (#3), and for lots of families
across the country, planning a vacation is truly a "seemingly impossible task," because it is beyond their financial means. I bet there are plenty of viewers who would see coordinating the logistics of a vacation funded by a TV network as a quality problem.
And Tucker's Mom again (#4), you've come up with another awesome sign suggestion for TFW for the I Am campaign: "I Am A Turn In A Jacuzzi!"

Someone at TLC needs to be fired for thinking that photo should be released to advertise K+8. Whomever chose this photo just reinforced the very real notion that Colin is an unhappy, failing-to-adjust boy who is an outcast.
Look at him! He's standing at a distance from everyone, looking down, eyes closed. It's sad.
Frankly, the photo of Kate giving her daughter the sideways stink eye was awful, too.
These revealing and unflattering photos remind me of how TLC portrayed the real Kate during the RV episodes, just before they cancelled her show.
Darlene sent Junebug Roush to get Patty.
=================
Junebug? The one with the eyes?
If the aliens make their scheduled take-over, I hope they bring ET along. He is so cute. My cat would have so much fun with him. I hope by now he uses a smartphone. It could help in their navigation.
Oh yeah, Patty's age. Too funny. I have a good feeling though. Darlene sent Junebug Roush to get Patty. Since no one seems to know what they're friend, Carla, looks like, hope she can be found
===============
But why would Hershey's have kidnapped Carla? What possible motive, other than to add to his sock collection?
Thanks GollyGee!

Great point. The Busby's big fat lie about coordinating a vacation is such a first-world problem. Many families can't even afford to take a vacation and do staycations instead.
Cry me a river. It's a sad testament to the stupidity of sheep that they would not only believe this b.s. story, but be enthralled to watch it.
The Busbys are douchebags. Sorry, that's crude, but they come across as douchey with their affected attitude.
I predict they'll implode sooner than Jon and Kate. When you start to think your shit doesn't stink, you begin to lose touch with reality.

It is a shame that they act like douches, but it is the TRUTH! I guarantee they will implode quicker than K and J because people are more aware of the grifting and falseness (fake) of it.
Your welcome, Localyocul!
Maybe whoever put that certain picture on did it on purpose because it shows how it really is with this con artist. Colin off to the side with this head down, looking so pitiful. 2 girls with their backs turned and their mother's snide eyes.
Just heartbreaking how she can't move on from reality tv and take those kids off tv and go private. Why can't she go back to nursing, college to improve herself?
No. She tells whoppers on twitter, instagram, posts awful pictures of her kids rubbing her feet.
She ought to be kissing THEIR feet they have worked since birth to keep her in the lifestyle she became accustomed too!
OT for Making A Murderer fans!!
"A federal court in Wisconsin has overturned the conviction of a man found guilty of helping his uncle kill Teresa Halbach in a case profiled in the Netflix documentary Making of a Murderer.
The U.S. District Court in Milwaukee overturned Brendan Dassey's conviction and ordered him freed within 90 days unless prosecutors decide to retry him."
http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/brendan-dassey-murder-conviction-1.3719125
W.O.W. I always thought he was being set up by the other younger guy who claims he saw him and the victim in the driveway (IIRC).
OT, but...For those who watched "Making a Murderer", I just saw that Brendan Dassey (the nephew) has had his conviction overturned by a federal court in Wisconsin, and he has been ordered release within 90 days! Dassey's confession was declared involuntary . This is going to get interesting!!

Is douchey an adjective? ;) If they act like douches, is the adverb douchely?

Ha! Well, the Busby's appear to be very intelligent, but arrogant. They're whole "golly gee, aw shucks" act doesn't work on me. The word "hustle" comes to mind. "Grifters", too.
"Since season 1 has ended, there hasn’t been a day that we have gotten asked if we were going to be going to a season 2. We have hated that we have had to ignore these questions, but couldn’t comment on the future of OutDaughtered until TLC was ready to make the announcement.
So they had to wait to say anything UNTIL TLC made the announcement, but Kate can just blab on twitter about them coming back in October?
&&&&
I had actually said when Kate mentioned October that I don't think she was supposed to say that. It felt like just a general ballpark they gave her, especially since she had no specific date. I think overall she's actually pretty good about keeping things quiet but I think it's been so long since an air date even she couldn't help herself and broke the rules. There was something about the way she said it that felt very insider, and unsanctioned. She blabbed, and she wasn't supposed to.
I think Kate hears what she wants to hear. I bet they said something like sure if all goes well probably October, we'll see.
She hears, October!!
Anyone see How to Be Single? Very cute movie. He says I care a lot about you but we're not right for each other. She hears, he cares about me! LOL.
She blabbed, and she wasn't supposed to.
*****
I blame Milo ;-)
IIRC, a lot of people starting asking on Twitter and Kate just couldn't let people think she was canceled.
Up at 6:45? That is sleeping late for me. I'm amazed that both puppies sleep that late...mine never does!
&&&
That's on the late side for a puppy. Though mine was sleeping until about 7, 7:30 by the time he was maybe 9 months old. I would get up earlier than that and he'd stay in bed! haha.
Tucker's Mom (27) you beat me to it! I owe you a rumspringa and a whoopee pie.
Hey, Kate, working folks would love the opportunity to sleep in until 7:30.
Unreal that she rolls out of bed after 9 each day.

That guy needs a new trial. He did not understand what was going on, and they practically made him sign that confession.
Anyone else think the sole reason Kate got the puppies is because the kids don't want to be put on blast on Twitter as much? Well that and an episode or two
Welp, Junebug is now off looking for Patty and Carla. Carla went to get Patty and now Carla is missing. TJ left early this morning to try to find all of them. How many will come back, and how many will be abducted by the aliens on 14th? This sounds like the Keystone Cops! It just makes me squall and squall.
Stay tuned...

I don't think the Busbys seem intelligent- many grammar errors etc. for example on their sites- but they do have a shrewd calculating eye for making money off their kids.
Jessica Hayman @JJALJH 2h2 hours ago
@Kateplusmy8 will you ever be in Minnesota?
Sure, after she wanders all over Reading looking for Nora's daughter! I think Kate would rather be in Europe, but she would be in Minnesota if there are good vacation spots and TLC can film it and pay for it! At this point, she'd most likely take whatever she can get.
I blame Milo ;-)
IIRC, a lot of people starting asking on Twitter and Kate just couldn't let people think she was canceled.

Blame Milo for everything. It works. She's always at the bottom of it all, although I think she'd rather be on the top.
OT--
BELLEFONTE, Pa. - Returning to court four years after the child sex-assault trial that put him in prison, Jerry Sandusky on Friday decried the flawed defense put on by his lawyers and asked a state judge to grant him a new trial.
Spitting into the microphone, the former Pennsylvania State University assistant football coach became most animated discussing his accusers - or, as he described them, "what they call victims" - and other witnesses who had testified against him.
"I wasn't a pedophile," he said. "I wasn't a preferential sex predator. I wasn't the monster I was made out to be."
Okay, Jerry, old buddy, whatever you say. Dottie obviously agrees with you.
I just saw that Brendan Dassey (the nephew) has had his conviction overturned by a federal court
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was also very relieved to hear this. It was so unfair how they played on Brendan's innocence and challenges to coerce a confession. I don't know why they 'needed' him to make a case against his uncle, anyway. I don't know of course, but it seemd they had plenty of evidence that was not shown in the documentary.
Sandusky-what a sociopath.

I hope Hershel Hand has stocked up on Reese's Pieces, just to keep the aliens happy and their bellies full.

This seems to be an oddly common reaction from child molestors. They seem to be acknowledging "something" happened, but, "it wasn't what you think." I know how it looks, BUT you don't understand.....
Bizarre.
Admin (#47), there's something so creepy about having so many young victims whose credibility will automatically be questioned, whereas you are seen as a paragon of virtue. The cards were stacked against these kids and he took advantage of that vulnerability.

@MiloandJack: @Kateplusmy8 Just watched ur #IG video of #Nanuq! So happy to see you leash training her & both of you getting some good exercise/fun! :)
=========
Sorry Milo but that isn't leash training. With leash training you teach the puppy to walk nicely on the leash not to pull you willy nilly down the driveway while chasing after a ball. In fact, if the puppy starts to pull like that you're supposed to correct him and tell him to "walk nicely" (or whatever command you use). Why not just throw the ball and let the puppy chase it and bring it back to you?
From TMZ:
Keshia Knight Pulliam says her estranged husband, Ed Hartwell, is so abusive, so violent, so diabolical ... he has plotted to kill their unborn child.
Keshia claims in divorce docs Ed "has been plotting to harm and obstruct [her] pregnancy" by engaging in "certain underhanded and unusual conduct" that would trigger a miscarriage.
Keshia, who is 5 months along, is not specific as to Ed's conduct, but she says he's engaged in "cruel treatment" which has adversely affected her pregnancy.
Keshia says in legal docs ... during their short marriage, Ed was constantly cursing, yelling and demeaning her. She says he also had affairs with multiple women, including a former baby mama.
And Keshia says she and Ed have multiple firearms ... she feels unsafe and wants an order forcing him to turn all the guns over to her. She's also asking the judge to order him to stay clear of her.
She wants the judge to order a mental evaluation.

****************
If I were her, I would pack what I needed and go into hiding and have the baby. Rent a different car, disguises. And I would offer him a contract saying that if he would give up his parental rights, that she would not ask for any support, ever for the baby. She has plenty of money.
I am so afraid for her!
Sandusky is a true sociopath. First he victimized those boys when they were young and vulnerable, and now that they are old enough to fight back in court, he is trying to portray himself as the victim. He needs to be put away where he can never harm anyone again--and that includes speaking out publicly.

Agree, Layla. When one of the coaches went into the locker/shower room he heard the slapping. This to me is very chilling. Because you think at first, what is that? And then that scared heat rises up and then you think, oh no!
He then went over to the shower and saw him raping a young boy!
And didn't even call 911! He went and told his father, and then he told someone and yada, yada, yada, someone told Joe and nothing was done for years.
Too bad Dottie can't be charged for being an accomplice. She knew this was going on down in the basement. She could of been a hero years ago but, she cared more about his legacy of being a great football coach and the money.
I don't blame McQueary. No one was calling 911 in 2002. It disturbed him and he knew something must be done, and he went to the older generation because he thought he could trust their guidance and wisdom for how to handle it. That's what we want young people to do before making rash decisions. We always tell young people feel free to tell your boss about things, consult those with more experience. We don't explain what happens when your boss can't handle it. Unfortunately the powers that be let him down. He has cooperated fully with the investigation and has been absolved of any responsibility. I feel bad for him. He should have been the hero for seeing something and saying something. He had an attractive option in forgetting everything he saw, that he didn't take.
hy not just throw the ball and let the puppy chase it and bring it back to you?

We have 30' biothane leashes. They also come as long as 50'. They are super light weight and resist dirt and sand, and tangling. Wonderful for the beach!
Milo-always trying to polish a turd.
BTW....It is SO FRICKING HOT TODAY! I'd like to get to the pool, but think I might melt before I get there. I don't think I can recall EVER hearing a heat index of 115 degrees.
Well, I trust and have a good relationship with my boss and father both are several decades older than me, so yeah, I can see people involving them in the conversation. It's not like seeing a child being raped is an every day thing. The pearl clutching "I would have done better" self righteous attitude is not credible. You don't know what you would do until in that moment. Of course, we have a better understanding now and are in a climate where it's more acceptable to speak out. That was not always the case. If he did something wrong they can file charges. They chose not to. This reminds me of What Would You Do. In that moment no one really knows. Hindsight is 20-20 and I bet he wishes with all his heart he had called the police (who by the way already knew in 2002 and hadn't done anything)
People tend to adopt the culture of their workplace, or college. It's not an excuse for not reporting crime, it's to understand that what goes through someone's head who is submerged in the culture isn't as cut and dry as, "that's wrong, must report".
When you can play out the repercussions in your head, or see how the dominos will fall, you sometimes weigh your actions differently.
It's hotter back east than in the southwest! It's only 87 where I am with zero humidity.
Haven't been here for a while...any news on if milo's been outed?
Well, Jerry is deying it.
"At his appeals hearing, he maintained his innocence, denying he ever sexually abused boys and said: "That idea is totally foreign to me. It's dirty, disgusting."
Hi Gabby -- nothing on Milo being outed. She (or he) is very clever at hiding it. I don't understand it. The sheep and the non-fans all seem to know the names, addresses, sexual preferences, marital status and everything about everyone, except Milo. Very strange.
Tucker's...I don't remember it ever being this nasty outside. Tomorrow is supposed to be worse. The dogs went outside, did their business very fast and wanted back inside in a few minutes. I usually have to call them a few times, but not today! They looked at me like I was punishing them for making them go outside.
This is brutal.

It has been really hot in PA. I was at a 5K run/1 mile fun walk for charity this morning. It was so hot, even at 8am. I was melting. I didn't see Kate even though it was only an hour for her. I wonder about those puppies in the heat.
Tucker's mom (#9), I don't remember Kate showing affection to the kids, even with the cameras rolling. Not even when they were babies and toddlers and most of us can't stop loving them. I think her narcissism keeps her from showing love to anyone besides herself.
Lots of drama among the Church Ladies, but in the middle of everything, they're having a barbecue! LOL

For miles? I seriously doubt that. So they are all planning to do the SWAT team thing at the compound and rescue 35 hairless, sock-less, nekkid women? I'd pay to see that.
OT (sort of)
Speaking of invasive cameras, watching Olympic swimming and it strikes me how invasive the cameras are. I'm not talking about the phalanx of cameras the swimmers have to pass on their way to the pool, or the enormous scrum that surrounds each medalist and their families in the stands. I'm talking about cameras behind the scenes where the swimmers are just chilling out, being calm and still, or jittery, trying to catch anything and everything. There is no refuge from cameras!
Yeah, Michael Phelp's "I eat turds like you" face at his homicidal stalker-like junior nemesis was pretty funny, but it strikes me in Rio that I've never seen so many camera-harnessed men breaking their necks to catch every grimace, smile, grunt and belch of an up close moment.

&&&
That's true, and that's the origins of whistleblower laws recognizing that very fact. I think having some understanding about workplace culture and how it has the potential for these sort of things being difficult is important. PA has been working very hard to create better environments and cultures where this will never happen again. This has been an opportunity to do better and learn form mistakes. Certainly those responsible can and have been held accountable, but I don't find it particularly helpful to finger wave over people lower on the chain expecting something of them that few, if anyone, was realistically capable of in that moment given the context. I think one of the best examples of this is the janitor who knew about it and was very upset, and told multiple people--but I suppose didn't do all he could. It never really made it up the chain. No one blames him or talks about him as being responsible. I think most people don't know about that, or if they do, understand his situation. I don't see why the same kind of understanding is not afforded in other situations.
As for this heat wave!!! We've been TRYING to walk around Philly and it just sucks the life out of you! It's not pleasant to try to just "walk around" which is normally so enjoyable in a city like this.

Sounds like a pretty large group of cops to go "rescue" someone who willingly went with Hershel. Then again, if they told the cops she was kidnapped, he took her across the state line and that's an FBI matter. I'd think the cops would first off, determine whether the woman went willingly or was kidnapped before sending out miles of cop cars. LOL
I do like the part about Hershel's 35th wife waking up after being drugged and finding herself naked on a swim raft with an open bible covering her whooha.

Welp. I can't go to sleep until I know how the storming of the Hand of God went down, and unlike Kate, I can't sleep in tomorrow, but have to get up at 4:45 to take someone to the airport! There's no going back to bed. Once I'm awake, I stay awake.
Admin, you went OUTSIDE today, actually walked around and lived to talk about it? Yikes!

Sad but true (#68), and, once again, Gladys puts her foot in her mouth. Her comment seems to acknowledge that TFW was never really all that into Shoka -- neither the puppy version nor the grown dog. I guess Gladys wasn't fooled by the photo ops in the unreasonably clean dog bed, or the birthday party with the homemade cake, or the gushing lovey-dovey comments about Shokie. Maybe Gladys saw what many of you saw on the show -- that the dog was generally not around his pack. And when he and TFW were together, there didn't seem to be much ease and comfort between them.

A network really should do a reality series based on the lives of the church women of Mason County. They could call it "Welps, Squalls and Spells."

We walked to dinner and then ice-cream. Then some of the party wanted to walk around some more--I felt a little nauseous, and dizzy. I think in full seriousness, this heat's dangerous. Especially when I haven't had any lead up or build up to it to get used to the high humidity.
It absolutely sucked my contacts dry, like sandpaper. It was painful. My eyes are bright red.
Well, Jerry is deying it.
"At his appeals hearing, he maintained his innocence, denying he ever sexually abused boys and said: "That idea is totally foreign to me. It's dirty, disgusting."
&&&&
The abuse everyone is describing is dirty, disgusting, no doubt. If they only "understood" how it was, they would understand it wasn't like THAT.
That's the mind of a pedophile.
No, it is cut and dry. When you witness a child being raped, you call 911. Period. End of story.
&&&&
The police were actually quite well informed of this man's actions and for quite some time, did nothing. Then what? What do you do when people's very institutions fail them?
It actually isn't cut and dry, or we wouldn't need whistle blower laws. We need to have some understanding of human psychology here and workplace culture and how it can affect one's ability to make sound decisions in that moment. Obviously what McQueary saw was deeply upsetting to him. Obviously he knew it was wrong. There's no question about that. At what point in the chain was the link broken is the question. It's cut and dry to the pearl clutching self-righteous who think they know exactly how they would have behaved in those shoes in that moment, but in reality don't know the first thing about how it would have gone down for them, and can't.
I bet if you had asked McQueary before all this happened IF he saw someone being raped, what would he do, he would have said, Well, call 911 of course! There are endless stories of good people being involved by chance in something bad, and in the heat of the moment, making poor choices about how to react to it. This is more than just a one-off situation. This is a part of the human condition. Which is why education is so very important.
Just because something doesn't meet the legal standard for culpability does not mean it can't be morally wrong. It blows my mind that someone who claims to be a child advocate doesn't see an issue with not reporting child rape. And to apply the guy for not perjuring himself by claiming not to remember is just the icing on the cake.
&&&&
Do *not* twist my words. Of COURSE it's an issue about not reporting child rape. OF COURSE all child rape should be reported! Don't you dare claim I have no issue with that. What I'm saying is that this is much more complex then you make it out to be, and that workplace culture and institutionalism was at the heart of what went wrong here, not one person's very understandable decision to involve their father and trusted coach in an upsetting and uncommon situation. This was exactly the conclusion of the Freeh report.
Your answer is too simple for the long term protection of children. Clearly, simply telling people to call 911 when something bad happens was not enough in this situation. Seems to me everyone involved must have understood 911 is available in an emergency. They're smart people. The question is why was it handled so poorly. The changes that need to happen must be much more aggressive than posting "Call 911 if you see child rape" signs around workplaces. Let's get real. The changes the Freeh report recommended and that are being implemented are institutional changes, because the Freeh report understands that is the heart of the matter.
As far as him not remembering, I made no such comment about that one way or the other. I don't know if he was lying, or honestly couldn't remember. But, it is possible. It's actually quite common to block out something so traumatic, and if it IS true he doesn't remember, it speaks to how upsetting it truly was to him. If he didn't care, he shouldn't have any problem recalling it.

Something indoors to do while you're in Philly is to visit the Barnes Foundation. It's a world-class art collection and an amazing museum.
BTW, after recommending Admin get some scrapple while in Philly, I actually ordered a slab for breakfast at a diner yesterday morning. It was a delicious treat, but the heartburn after, not so much!

Milo does pretty much make it evident that Kate was miserable when she got her first set of puppies. Shoka only came back because it was of value to Kate. After that, getting rid of him a second time would have been too big of a PR disaster.
After all, how does the self-proclaimed "best mother in the world" kick the family dog out twice?
Admin, I hope you're feeling better this morning. If it's any consolation, it's going to be about 100 in L.A. today, so you wouldn't be that comfortable here either!

Same here in the Boston suburbs. We had a big storm last night and welcome rain but it did not bring refreshing breezes or any relief. It's like a sauna out there. No one feels like doing anything. What a way to end the last of summer. Be careful, everyone!
She's not sleeping with those puppies. No way. If they were in her bedroom in their kennel, they would whine if they needed to potty and that happens BEFORE 7:30 am. I guarantee you those dogs are kept in the basement for the boys to deal with. Remember the puppy chore list? Whose handwriting was on it? Not hers; definitely a child's. In fact, she posted it to brag about how organized she was. It gave it away who in that family really are taking care of the puppies. I'll say it...she's a bold face liar who lives in an alternative universe through Twitter and Instagram. Unfortunately, a lying parent is a poor role model and those kids may lack integrity just like their mother. I feel sure she has convinced them that it's all ok because it's about perception for the fans.
I just listened to an NPR interview with a journalist named Tennessee Watson, who was molested by her gymnastics coach when she was little. She has become an advocate for abused children, and has done extensive research in the subject.
Watson talked about the grooming process, and how the coach who molested her actually befriended her father. As in, come on, who's gonna believe your dad's friend dared to do anything to you? She said these people are very good at what they do, and work hard to make sure their behavior and contact with the child seems "normal," so that when that line is crossed, the child is meant to feel that nothing really happened.
Oh no!

Anyone who's raised puppies knows that their tiny bladders need emptying during the night, many nights.
Our bichon had to go out TWICE last night, in the muggy heat. Too many treats, me thinks ;-)
No matter your dog's age, sometimes they need to go out in the middle of the night.

Very typical. A pedo coach will become so trusted and even vaunted and revered by the family (like many priests), that a parent would never, ever imagine that they are dangerous.
Meanwhile, the child is being groomed and/or threatened so that they say nothing to the parents.
This heat is insane! Our grass needs to be cut, but there is no way we are sending our boys out to mow it. It was 91 degrees at 10pm last night, and at 9 this morning it was already 89. And the heat index is even higher. We are not setting foot out the door unless we have to!
Maybe she doesn't sleep with them all night. It could be that they spend a little quality time (snort) with her in her bed before the boys haul them off to their boy cave in the basement. It wouldn't make her a liar; it would just be one of Kate's spin on things.
I haven't really been following the Kate/puppy story because the whole thing was just for filming purposes and it's so disgusting that she actually added pups for that reason. However, I thought I read somewhere that the kids promised they would take care of them and do the early morning potty thing with them.

Yeah, right, like anyone believes this. They were convincing before, but this outs them. It is all one big game.
I still think the language/dialect and stupidity is real, but these wild stories are just too far out there to be believable. They just got too carried away with all of it.

At this point, I don't think that anyone expects grass to be cut. I noticed that the folks down the road started to mow, gave up, and now have a nice line of demarcation between the cut and uncut!
Heat index right now is 104, same tomorrow. Week after next looks so much better with lows in the upper 50s. Can we all hibernate under the veranda until then? I'll bring the corn on the cob, watermelon and of course, the rumspringa.

It's Kate's grandmother, not Charlene, who is alive and well. The photo is of her grandmother.
It is Kate's grandmother, not the kids' grandmother in that photo. Kate has spoken a few times about hoe much she misses her.
That is a photo of Kate's maternal grandmother, Ruth Kolak, who was born August 14, 1917 and died September 30, 2006. Nice sentiment to post, but she never mentions her mother. Seems like Kate was close to the grandparents. She must be feeling the loneliness of rejecting her parents these days.
Oh crap,sorry guys when Kate said the best grandmother i for some reason thought she meant the kids grandmother(her mother).

I'm with you Fleecing! It's becoming waaaaaaaay to unbelievable now. If there had been an explosion with deaths wouldn't it have been on the news especially if a cult was involved? The church women are beginning to sound like characters in a novel. Maybe an author has created all of the different women's identities and is fleshing out her characters. If it was one person doing all of them she'd probably be able to keep the story going and keep all the individual voices of the women straight.

Of course. It's so contrived now, the wording and descriptions of the events are so ridiculous that it's not believable. You can find so many holes in those stories that none of it makes any sense.
However, I still am not convinced that these aren't real people who are semi-literate, and well, just plain dumb. Creative in their stories, but stupid nonetheless.

Golly Gee....Kate gave Milo a shout out when she appeared on the Dr Drew show when she was making the rounds in her silver striped dress in California a couple years ago.
Sheepless (#116), I bet Gladys would say she knows that TFW and her mother keep in touch privately. TFW, devoted daughter that she is, is determined to keep her mother out of the spotlight and shield her from the haters. Whereas no one is going to harass her deceased grandmother. As TFW's self-appointed spokesperson, I think Gladys has a sugar-coated answer ready for anything.

There was something very fascinating happening here, and very cunning. Not only was Sandusky grooming his victims, he was grooming the institution. Oh, he was actively, intentionally grooming everyone around him who might ever find him out. Once he set himself up as an upstanding member of the community who had dedicated his life to the well-being of foster children, not to mention a football icon, he created a situation where to shoot an arrow at him would not only be hard to reconcile, but if you ever did, you started to believe all that would do is jeopardize yourself and the very university. You don't throw a stone at the angels of campus and expect it to be easy. Nobody wanted to collapse everything that had been built over the past 25 years. This is very different than walking down the street one day, seeing a child being raped, and grabbing your cell right away to call 911. That's easy.
I still want to know how that prosecutor ended up dead.
It's Kate's grandmother, not Charlene, who is alive and well. The photo is of her grandmother.
*******
I'm sure Kate's grandparents were wonderful but Kate can't help herself but to use that lovely woman's birthday to further indict her own parents.
Grandparents don't raise you; they spoil you. That's why so many of us have nothing but purple prose for them. It's our parents who do the heavy lifting to bring us up, and apparently, Kate's parents simply fell short on every level in her eyes.
I don't know the Krieders, but I will not jump to the conclusion that they are awful people-so awful-who would pose danger to their grandkids.
Kate's parents won't live forever. I dearly hope they live long enough to be there for Kate's kids who once out of Kate's control, seek them out.
However, I thought I read somewhere that the kids promised they would take care of them and do the early morning potty thing with them.
*******
Kate said a condition of getting the pups was that it was understood that she would not be the one getting up in the middle of the night to tend to their needs.
I'm sure the kids could totally relate.
Kate wants the fun and all the glory, and B.F.D. she cleans their bowls in the dishwasher. Whoop de freaking doooooooooo.
She runs the pups bowls in the dishwasher?
Gross!
@FlimsyFlamsy (120) Yet the sad part is that the opposite has happened.Apart from Deanna(who really isn't family)every relative that came out and spoke poorly about Kate got harassed by the fans.Aunt Jodi,uncle Kevin,aunt Kendra,heck even Ashley was attacked.I can't think of one relative who spoke positively about Kate who got harassed by haters.

Ouch.
I put my dogs' bowls in the DW, too. I promise, it's not gross! The sanitary cycle gets them squeaky clean-way cleaner than just hot water and dish liquid.
I remember years ago, Charlene Krieder supposedly took to a blog and defended Kate, which puzzled me. Kate cut her out of her life, cut off all of her 8 kids, and takes every opportunity to stab her in the back.

Yeah, those Church Ladies screwed up. Parody is parody, but when you get reckless with it and it goes from the ridiculous to the sublime, the irony of all of it loses its meaning and it ceases to be amusing. Too bad, they could be very convincing at times.

I can't see her using Steve as a sub for Jon. If anything, he's the antithesis of Jon or she wouldn't keep him around.
Well thank you for defending me Flimsy, but the comment is mine. I'm not picking at GollyGee I'm just curious about why she thinks it's gross. Although my puppy eats dry kibble I do supplement with Fruitables pumpkin super blend a couple of times a week and even with daily hand washing the bowls are not as clean as they could be. I do like the super clean of the dishwasher especially because he's currently using a plastic slow feeder (he's a gulper).

So when is Junebug's funeral/memorial service? I'd like to send my condolences and flowers since I can't be there in person. If she was blown up, I guess they won't be having an open casket. Is tj still blind? Is Patty still blabbering and pounding her chest like a gorilla? Did anyone wake up naked on a raft this morning? Has Hershel taken his 36th wife? Inquisitive minds want to know (well, not really).

It's hotter back east than in the southwest! It's only 87 where I am with zero humidity.

I'm home now and I swear to god it felt like winter in LA stepping off the plane. These past several days have been truly NUTS. It's kind of disappointing, I would have liked to walk around more but it was just too unbearable.
Tucker's Mom - Ours gets to lick the plates too. We tell him to do his job. We always rinse them before they go in the dishwasher though.
Rainbows - I'm waiting for the next chapter in the book also. Those church ladies were very believable until the latest story line. However, I still enjoy following them.
Admin - The town I'm from on the Jersey shore has a temp of 86 right now with 58% humidity. The town in the SW that I'm in is also 86 but with only 10% humidity. Guess which 86 feels hotter! We don't even use AC here we still have a swamp cooler.

I'm beginning to realize a lot of things I let my dog do or do for him are gross! :)
Some people don't even like dogs in the bed but he sleeps in the bed all the time, sometimes tucking himself in!
I'm watching Dr Drew, and they are discussing a case where a mother locked her 3 kids (ages 6, 3, and newborn) in the car while she ran some errands. The baby was fussy, and the 6-year-old beat the baby to death. When the mother returned, the boy said there was something seriously wrong with the baby, but the mother ignored him and went to run another errand. The mother was the star of a TLC show called "I'm 55 and Pregnant". She was pregnant with the 6-year-old when the show was filmed.
Dr Drew and his panel are discussing the effect of reality TV--did the mother even want children at that age, or did she just want to a show? Gee, a mother having children to get a TV show. Where have we seen that before?
Foxy (#119), I think you came up with a great
title for TFW's next book: "Making The Rounds In
A Silver-Striped Dress: My Life as a D-Lister."
=============
D-lister and Dresser.
I don't know how true it is, or if it's an old wives' tale, but my vet always said that dogs' saliva is cleaner than that of humans! Could be that's why, if they are injured or have scratches, they lick the wound and it heals without an antibiotic!
According to the Church Women, Darlene is watching movies in her new tower apartment that belonged to June, whose body is now up in Columbus. June is not yet buried, but old Dar has taken over her place. Fast move. Forget the grieving period. I wonder if she can tear herself away from her new tower apartment to go to the funeral. How will they explain it when June resurrects herself? Jesus raising Lazarus?
And TJ is still blind as mice, according to Barbie. The next story line should be fun.
Yeah, right, like anyone believes this. They were convincing before, but this outs them. It is all one big game.
&&&
Of course it's all one big parody. And at times, a funny one! And to think we got the back of our hands slapped by some regulars here for making fun of them.

He's so great. Celebs could learn a lot for him.
I'll never forget for his 90th birthday he wanted to go to Disneyland, and he invited his entire town to come. He literally hired a big party bus and said anyone can show up here at this time if you'd like to join me. Who does that?!
Tucker's Mom (158)
They showed the mother being arraigned, so it looks like she is definitely facing some kind of charges. She showed no regard for the children's well-being, she knowingly put them in danger, and she set up the situation that resulted in the baby's death. I hope she is held accountable for what happened.

Well, she would, and Milo would have lots of excuses why she can't go. And then Kate would cancel after everyone has already forked over the money and made plans, claiming they didn't meet the numbers they had planned on.

And the sheep would blame the non-fans for being responsible for canceling the cruise in the first place. The Defective, of course, had nothing to do with any of that, and the travel agent never sent out blanket e-mails with the personal info of all those who had signed up! On top of everything, the fans would also blame the non-fans for Kate never having been able to secure employment anywhere and that they sabotaged all of Kate's employment opportunities.
A funny malapropism from one of the church women:

This is a very strange, horrible story. The 'Mom' is 62 years old. Her husband died of cancer in 2011 & she was inseminated with his frozen sperm to conceive the 3 year old & the newborn. She & the husband were on a reality tv show when she was pregnant with the 6 year old -"I'm Pregnant and 55 Years Old." Just awful.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-newborn-killed-by-brother-mother-charged-20160812-story.html
Just think. The doctor that inseminated this deranged woman with the 6 year old and then the newborn should face disiplinary action with the state medical board. He needs his medical license revoked. This dr. has to live with helping create 2 children with a mentally deranged 55 and then 62 year old woman that made her children suffer severe abuse with her own hands on the 6 year old and now the death of the newborn.
You know she didn't have the money to pay for the procedures, the shows budget did. Blood money.
She runs the pups bowls in the dishwasher?
Gross!
000000000000000
Why is that gross? If you have a properly working dishwasher, not gross at all. I run my dogs bowls through the DW. If the water is hot enough for human bacteria it definitely is efficient for dog's bowls. Gross not to clean them.

xxxxxxxxxxx Pity you refuse your children the same joy you had from being with their grandparents. They see Jon's mom, so's there's that. But not your parents (theirgrandparents) or their cousins & uncles and aunts. You're a mean one Katie Irene. Turd didnt fall far from Kenton's arse
when he made you
Why would someone post such an utterly mean comment. We have no idea what Kate has or has not done with her parent's at this point. This is so hateful, I have no words.

I must have been sleeping through all of that. What employment was Kate seeking and was denied? A REAL job? Nursing? Flipping burgers? Running a doggie day care center?
OT on the church ladies...
Just think. If there had been two Booooshes in the big old house, the tragic events of the past few days might have been avoided and there wouldn't be a body in the pugilistic posture awaiting burial somewhere up in Columbus.
For a morning chuckle, check out Kate's TL and Goody's tweet about vacuum sealing plastic bags and look at the porn photo that appears right above the tweet. I glanced at it quickly and thought that was the photo that accompanied Goody's tweet.

That last part was mean and I don't know what Kenton did to deserve that. It would surprise me if the rest of it wasn't spot on.
@Midnight Madness Honestly why does Goody even send Kate these tweets about stuff like that?Has Kate ever replied back by saying"Wow this is so interesting,thanks for sharing."Never seen Kate care about what she tweets to her.The only time i see Kate ever pay her any attention is when she RTs a quote that has something to do with haters being judgemental
James (#174), I think the fans buy into the idea that TFW is crazy busy all the time, and don't really expect a response. When TFW disappears and resurfaces, she usually says something to imply that things have been soooo hectic, and the fans don't seem to mind her lack of attention.

I hope this works - Dick Van Dyke's impromptu Denny's concert. I think he enjoyed it more than the surprised patrons.

We had storms come through last night and they didn't seem too bad. But, we lost electricity from about 4-6am. Our ceiling fan stopped and I heard several power surges, so it woke me up. Then, all I could think about was when it was going to be fixed, with temps approaching 100 again.
We have a storm watch issued until 11pm today.
Worst summer heat ever!

It doesn't take much to make most of them happy, except for Gladys. She needs more than just bones to satisfy her hunger for Kate. It gets expensive buying all that Kobe beef to throw in Milo's direction, 24/7.
When you look up live life to the fullest there's Dick Van Dyke. He's such a gem, such a good sport, doesn't look back on perhaps more cheesier moments of his career, things other actors may be sick of reliving hundreds of times, and instead embraces them and respects the public's love for them.

It would be a tax write-off for her to take Milo to NOBU for lunch after an appearance on the TODAY show after crying crocodile tears about bills in her purse that she can't drop in the mail because she can't pay for them.
Steve would chaperone, of course.

Didn't she have quite a few accounts with several hundreds of thousands of dollars in non-liquid assets that year? We should all be that poor with bills in our purses.
Sheepless (#191), that Today show appearance
was such a vivid example of TFW's lack of authenticity, which was picked up on by Scott at Coupon Cabin in short order. She was playing a part in that interview: a struggling, desperate single mom of 8 who had been done wrong by her ex.
Then, as the Vanity Fair piece chronicled, she flounced off to a fancy lunch and a toy shopping spree.
Another one flew the coop!

Kate's crying spree about unpaid bills in her purse was Oct. 5, 2009.
She was fired from CouponCabin 3 years later, Oct. 19, 2012.
Deliverence (#194), I wasn't relating the firing to the Today interview. I meant that her lack of authenticity in general has become a serious deficit to her career, as evidenced by the Coupon Cabin firing.
If I remember correctly, wasn't she booked on the Today Show specifically to talk about Coupon Cabin and spent most of the time talking about her sob!! 'poor divorced mother of 8, I have it so hard' situation?
She was oblivious to her "road manager" and "advisor" that morning after the TODAY show interview. Steve told her it would not be a good idea to go to NOBU right after the show for lunch after "crying" about not having the money to pay her bills in her purse.
$170 dollars was dropped on lunch at NOBU.

Kate was never able to effectively communicate what her role was with CC. Her deal with "Coupons by Kate" was even worse.
Basically, Kate was a tabloid queen who drew eyeballs, and that's why these companies paid her.
They got what they paid for ;-)

The whole Nobu thing came out of the Vanity Fair interview:
The Unreal Rise of Jon and Kate Gosselin
"Nobu, Nobu, I want Nobu!” Kate Gosselin wants to go to Nobu. She’s got a night away from her eight kids—also her co-stars on the hit reality series Jon & Kate Plus Eight—and a reporter is offering to take her out on the town. “I want sushi!” Kate says, leaning back in an armchair in her suite at the Essex House hotel overlooking Central Park, checking her BlackBerry, popping gum.

Where did the $170 figure come from?
Kate was never able to effectively communicate what her role was with CC.
-------------------
What we do know is that she didn't fit into their company, was not authentic, and basically was a thorn in their side. That was enough for them to give her the pink slip.
Did Kate expect CC or TLC to foot the bill for Nobu? She certainly couldn't dig into her empty wallet to come up with cash that wasn't there.

CC wasn't in the picture back when Vanity Fair did their interview. And they, VF, were interviewing Kate and taking her to lunch.
