Do One Nice Thing

Listening to the Gayle King show this morning, I heard about a lady named Debbie Tenzer, who has devoted her Monday's to Do One Nice Thing for someone. Debbie has also created a website, www.doonenicething.com which gives ideas on things you can do for people and be involved in the "nice" movement. On Debbie's website, there is a video called "Confessions of a Nice-o-Holic" and for every viewing of the video, money will be donated to the Feeding America Organization.

The Search For Madeleine

This story has haunted me since May of 2007 when I heard about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. It seems as if they have a lead in the case. They are looking at Raymond Hewlett, a British pedophile, as a suspect in the disappearance. He is currently in Germany being treated for throat cancer. My only concern now is that if he's in a hospital, where is Madeleine? I have really kept up the hope that she would be found alive, but when I heard there was a suspect and he's in the hospital, it raises the question, where could she be. Very sad!

Kara DioGuardi vs. Bikini Girl

I loved it when Kara came out on stage Wednesday on American Idol and blew bikini girl, Katrina Darrell, off the stage. She was fabulous!

New Credit Card Laws

I found the following article on walletpop.com and thought it was very interesting. Let's hope President Obama will get it passed by the end of May, as he plans to do.

http://www.walletpop.com/credit/credit-cards/article/_a/bbdp/what-the-cardholder-law-means-to-you/490579?icid=mainmaindl5link7http%3A%2F%2Fwww.walletpop.com%2Fcredit%2Fcredit-cards%2Farticle%2F_a%2Fbbdp%2Fwhat-the-cardholder-law-means-to-you%2F490579

One thing the article doesn't mention is how much one person can have in available credit. I think that's the real issue with Americans today. We build up so much credit card debt, because credit card companies don't have a good program in place to stop you from getting more credit. There needs to be something in the law about that. Maybe I'll send a letter to President Obama with my opinion?

Celebrities with the Kate Gosselin Hair Do

This is too funny. About a week ago Kate Gosselin made a statement that "Everyone" wanted her hairdo. Well, you be the judge. Check out what some celebrities would look like with the Gosselin hair do.



Death and Taxes

Nothing is certain in life but death and taxes and the 18 year old who sold her virginity for $14,000.00 may have to pay up. Uncle Sam may end up taking 1/2 of Alina Percea's earnings. Sucks to be a prostitute!

Kris Allen - 2009 American Idol Winner

Way to go Kris! I can't say I wasn't shocked when Adam didn't win, but I'm so glad Kris did. Out of the two of them, Kris is a more current singer. Adam's voice reminds me of an 80's hair band and we've already done that. Congrats Kris! You deserve the win!

Were you as surprised as I was last night?

When Shawn Johnson was announced winner of Dancing With The Stars? I was stunned! I really thought she would have ended up in 3rd place behind Melissa Rycroft or Gilles Marini.

Top Picks from Adam Lambert

These are my two picks for Adam. I don't really like "Mad World", however, I thought the intro and the theatrics were kind of cool.
Ring of Fire


Mad World

Top Picks from Kris Allen

It's a tossup for me on which performances I liked best from Kris Allen. I'd have to go with "Heartless" or "Ain't no Sunshine". Which do you like, or do you have another favorite?
Ain't No Sunshine

Heartless

Who do you want to win American Idol tonight?

Kris Allen or Adam Lambert?

Laura riding her new bike.

My little one got a bike this past weekend. She's learning to ride it and hopefully we'll get to take the training wheels off soon.

David Spade?

On one of Tim's latest trips, he thought he may have seen David Spade. Based on the pictures taken from his Blackberry, what do you think? David Spade or not?

"Precious" Trailer

Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry have a movie coming out November 6, 2009 called Precious. Check out the trailer below. It looks like a very compelling story.

Jon & Kate + 8 Controversy (cont'd)

Whoa, the following video contains shocking allegations from Kate's brother, Kevin Kreider.


Also, in People magazine this week, Kate is on the cover with a caption reading "We Might Split Up". This seems to be a sad situation. I hope the rumors aren't true, but the stories just keep coming.

Hard Times

Jon & Kate + 8 Controversy (cont'd)

My heart aches for Kate. I see she's having a difficult time dealing with the tabloid rumors. Whether they are true or not, you can tell they have taken a toll on her.

Promoting her book, 8 Little Faces, I expected her to be bubbly, but as you will see, that's not the case.

Have you ever dealt with a cheater-cheater pumpkin-eater, or even a rumor that your significant other has stepped out? How did you handle it? Did you stay together or go your separate ways?

Jon & Kate + 8 Controversy

I'm sure most of you who watch Jon & Kate + 8 have heard the recent controversy on Jon and his late nights out? Well, do you believe all that you're reading? For me, I just can't see it. I don't think Jon is that type of guy to step out on his marriage, but I've been wrong before.

What do you think? Do you think he's growing tired of Kate + 8?
