TLC, that cable channel that use to be called - The Learning Channel should be called the side show channel or something close to that. Where else could you find side show freaks, families and odd balls that you would normally gawk at in the Walmart parking lot?
I thought the channel started its great decline when they put that brood mares' show on, you remember the Duggars? Each year the name of the show was changing from 17 and counting to 18 and counting, then 19 and ..............well you get the idea. Now there is Honey Boo Boo, the world's most hideous child.
When is The Learning Channel get back to showing actual shows we can learn something from? Cough.......never, because there is more money in showing off freaks.
Speaking of freak shows, why are all of them about white people? I know that the white race does not have a monopoly on stupidity, so what gives? Is their more advertising dollars for TLC for showing only one race and type of stupidity?
Oh well, one can only hope for a swift end for TLC.

Dr. Phil riding on the fame of the "man with a golden voice"
Remember the man who was "discovered" on a street corner begging? He had a "golden voice" for broadcasting and was hired. Then comes along Dr. Phil and his TV show.
Dr. Phil is being a jack-ass, at least in my book. He found a patsy in Ted (the man with the golden voice) and put him on his show under the disguise of therapy. All Phil is thinking about is his shows ratings. Yes Ted has problems but show me any family who doesn't. The only reason Phil got Ted on his show is because people are curious about him. Phil is putting Ted and his family on parade, shame on you Dr. Phil!!!
We all know that Dr. Phil claims that he does not pay any of his "guests" on his show.....well if he keeps up using those people to prop up his own ratings then maybe he should be paying them.

...and this week's Pee Brain Award goes to the wives of Kody Brown
Gawd, I thought I have seen it all on TV but the latest entry into the reality shows is called. "Sister Wives," a show on TLC, the same network that brought us 16, 17, 18, 19 kids and counting (you know that fricken baby machine lady). Now back to Sister Wives, which during their interview tells everyone that Kody, the husband, was not the one to go out looking for the next wife, but the first wife or wives, was. Are they morons or do they like to have group sex? Let's face some facts here, the only reason to to get married or have more than one "wife" at a time is SEX, not to have more kids (you can adopt children) nor to have someone to clean your house (hire a housekeeper) or for the other wives to have someone to watch their kids (hire a babysitter or find a daycare like normal people do).
If that was not all, one of the wives, Janelle states "If we raise productive, contributing members of society who are moral and ethical, that's our final goal, whatever their path is."
Is she out of her mind? What is her definition of morality? Apparently not the same as the rest of society. That nut job has 4 kids with Kody.
As an interesting side note, the entire family now has the feds investigating them for felony bigamy. This show might be more interesting as the courts and police get involved. I wonder if the cameras will follow them in jail?
Yep the whole cast, except for the kids, are the winners of this week's Pee Brain Award.

The gossip surrounding the Kyron Horman case
If you have not been following the disappearance of Kyron Horman, let me give you a quick refresher. Kyron is a 7 year old boy that disappeared from a suburb of Portland, Oregon just over a month ago. He was first reported missing by his step mother Terri Horman when he failed to get off the school bus after school. The case has changed dramatically since the first day he was reported missing.
His father and step mother have separated and Terri (Kyron's step mother) is suspected by his father of playing a major role in his son's disappearance. They separated soon after Kyron's father found out about Terri's plot to have him (the father) killed last year.
This case has had more twists than a cork screw. Now a friend of Terri's is implicated in this ever deepening story. Of course there are amateur sleuths on the trail and here is just one message board that has some interesting insider tales to tell. The original poster is related to a relative involved in the case.
Since the disappearance of Kyron, Terri has also been involved with another man. There was also a rumor that Kyron's dad was also staying with a "friend" after the separation and that "friend" is a lady "friend." He has since moved back into his home and had Terri removed from the house.
That is a lot of goings on for just a few short weeks. All that and the question is still open....is Kyron still alive?

Baby machine family, the Duggars are at it again
The Duggar family is now expecting their 19th child. The 42 year old baby machine, Michelle Duggar made the announcement of their expectant 19th child on Tuesday. Michelle won't have to worry about changing more diapers as she has rarely done that chore in the past 10 years. The newborn will be "assigned" to another child to rear. They call it the buddy system. I call it a cop out. Of course Jim, the father, will not have to worry about were to get the money from to feed another mouth, they have a TV show and the more the merrier. If it was not the fact they were on TV for having so many kids in the first place I doubt if they would have even had the money for the house they live in.
It was the Duggars, Jim and his mother, who got the brilliant idea to approach a TV network with the idea of filming their large brood. The Discovery Channel was interested with the idea and bought it. Jim was building a home at the time and had run out of money. In fact the family was living on handouts from relatives. Lets say they were almost on the verge of welfare. The Discovery Channel stepped in and paid for the house to be finished.
Now that the family was on TV they could push their form of religion - breed like crazy. They have their own church. with a few close friends to make it a tax deduction. I wonder if the IRS should be looking into that. They also home school most of the kids. That way the children don't know any better when it comes to what a parent should be doing and not having the older children raise the younger children.
Good parenting skills went out the door when those dollar signs from heaven - opps I meant the Discovery Channel, showed up in their bank account.
That family has stirred up so much controversy since their 16th child, it is not funny anymore. Of course the internet is ripe with rumors and facts of the oldest children hating being raised like a herd. All of the older girls have been taught the same values as mom, find a husband and have lots of kids. Don't bother with a college education you won't need it to spend most of your time playing jungle gym in bed.
Here is an article about their life when the 18th child was on their way. You need to scroll down the page and read the comments since that is where you will find the rampant flame throwing.

Mystery surrounds murder suicide
Ryan Jenkins, the murder suspect of his ex-wife Jasmine was found dead in a motel room in Canada. The millionaire fled from California along the coast in his boat. Motive remains a mystery and there are thoughts that another person is involved. The motel room that he was found hanging in was in a womans name and was paid by a woman. The mystery woman is yet to be identified.
This case is now considered closed by the police but I wonder if there is more to it than meets the eye.

Small time actor wanted for murder of model
Ryan Jenkins is being sought for questioning in the murder of model Jasmine Fiore. The 28 year old model's body was found Saturday stuffed into a trash bin in LA. Jasmine was married to Ryan in Las Vegas but the marriage was annulled 2 months later.
Ryan played a small part as a Masquerade Dancer in the movie Phantom of the Opera (2004) and was in the reality show "Megan Wants a Millionaire."
Vick has new job
Michael Vick the football player turned animal abuser/gambling baron, now is working for the Philly Eagles. Let's see how the teams popularity goes after this addition.
The Octuplets mom is a lazy B****
If you have been watching the saga of the Octuplets and their self serving mother (Nadya Suleman) you would know that the mom has done very little in the way of actually taking care of those newborns. She recently "fired" her troop of volunteer and licensed nurses to bring in her own paid nurses from Kaiser hospital. Now I wonder who is paying for that specialized care. Is it the taxpayer? It might be since she could not afford the hospital bill for when they were born. In California if a patient can't pay then the state steps in and covers the bill so that a person is not denied medical attention when they need it.
The allegations are getting hot and heavy concerning the fact that the mother does not lift a finger to care for her babies and lets the nurses do everything. She goes on shopping sprees with donated money of course because she had nothing, not even a job or her own home when this all begun.
In my honest opinion I do think she had this all planned from the very beginning. Make headlines with the number of children and plead poverty for donations. After all there are 2 successful TV shows about very large families so why not one more? So far she has been right on the money. She has a new house and furniture plus $1 million in cash. All of that in under 6 weeks since this all began. How many of us can say the same thing for an unwed mother with kids who don't even know who their father is?
Poor Dr. Phil, he should have kept out of that mess. He is now trying to wash his hands of the whole affair. Phil, take my advice, you got into it too deep and you won't come away from that mess so clean.
Mary Jo Buttafuoco, what is she doing now?
Remember the woman who got shot by her husband's girlfriend 16 years ago? At the time she stood by her husband and then later divorced him. Here is a video up date on what she is up to nowadays.
The Governor of New York got caught rolling in the hay
Governor Spitzer did a no-no, he visited a high priced call girl and got caught. I am not really concerned about the a-hole but I do wonder if his wife knew anything about it. I saw her on the news tonight and the look on her face said "I didn't know!"
Oscar the infamous Angel of Death
Now here is something you don't hear everyday, a famous cat. Oscar is a cat that lives in a Rhode Island nursing care home. What makes the cat so famous you ask? Well this cat seems to be kinda special. He knows when someone is going to die. He is 2 years old and has been at the facility since he was a kitten. He is not normally considered to be a friendly cat but will "sit" with a patient that he has sensed will be dead in less than 4 hours. His predictions have been accurate for the past 25 cases and it has been documented in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The medical community has been trying to decide how Oscar knows when the time has come. Some speculate that he can smell the body when it starts to shut down. So far his predictions of when a patients time has come has been more accurate than the doctors on duty. The great majority of the elderly patients are not aware of the cats presence during those final hours since they are often heavily medicated or on life support.
Oscar has recieved a wall plaque commending his work in hospice care.
