I just heard on the weather channel that Sandy has officially made landfall. God bless all of you in the path of this storm. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dmasy,
I received the movie a week or so after Memorial Day. I haven't cried that much in a long time...well, last month I watched Marley and Me, and that was an ugly cry, too.
Ok, I am a crybaby, ok???
lolol
And there's something about seeing the American flag fly while reciting the allegiance..gives me a lump in my throat every time!

Our firepit is back home. HunnyBunny chased it all the way to Texas, had BBQ at Aggiemom's, and then carried the firepit home. It is now bungie-corded (is that a word) to the dog fence.

You wouldn't believe the stories HB told about you. Did you really rob a bank back in '88?

You ladies are hilarious!!
I have to say, I thought it odd a fire pit would go bowing away, and now my 9 foot porch umbrellas has blown away!! I don't how, and I dont where, although I have my suspicions ;) SOunds like quite a picnic was had in TX - anyone else have items blow away that would have added to the party?

Katastophic Khate- welcome and love the name- it's perfect!

Thanks everyone for checking again...glad to hear from you :D

My children r NOT happy that weather and Sandy updates r trumping DWTS!They were so happy r power hasn't gone out..but weather news anyway!
++++++++++++++

Kate, you idiot. Go to the next channel. It's on there. The Sandy update is only on the one DWTS channel. I'm watching it.

She tweeted she's headed to the basement. Such a drama queen. Wind guests are 15 mph...they're higher than that in a garden-variety summer thunderstorm. Does she herd everyone in the basement for those?

I love the part in Taking Chance where they are driving the casket and everyone on the highway realizes what's going on, and starts turning on their lights, slowing down and following it, forming an impromptu funeral procession. So moving. A clip from that scene is in the trailer.

aggiemom -- Unfortunately, the article posted on my homepage news roundup said the rescued crewmember from HMS Bounty is unresponsive. Apparently, she and the ship's captain were able to get into survival suits, which protect from the cold and keep one afloat, but in seas that rough -- I don't even want to think about it.

I keep tuning in to the weather channel to see the latest. Sounds like Manhatten is getting slammed. Record high water at the Battery, water flooding the power stations, so the electric company is turning the power off. Just hearing about the devastation already is mind-numbing, and the worst is yet to come. Please, everyone, stay safe!

Dwindle -- glad your HB managed to chase down the fire pit. I had some hot spiced rumspringa and some dry towels ready for him, but he raced past so fast I couldn't do more than toss a towel at him. At least aggiemom was able to offer him some hospitality.

Yes. People are losing their homes, their businesses, there were even more deaths today, but we must make sure we see DWTS. What an ignorant fool.

She really pi$$es me off- she is passing her shallow values on to her children. I would have my kid watching the news of the weather- if age appropriate, or at the very least made it a lesson for her that real life is far more important than a show, and sometimes real life happens - I even made her get out of bed to watch the POTUS give the news on Bin Laden's death because I knew the historical value of it- and she had a class the next morning- boy was she grumpy- LOL!
How can a person be so shallow? She watches RH over the debates, gets upset if DWTS is trumped by a hurricane...come on Kate- WAKE UP! There is a world out there, around you.

readerlady said...

The last time I visited DC I was at the changing of the guard the same time as a crowd of high school students. Absolute silence. Then I heard a little sniffle. Then another one. I looked around and most of those kids had tears streaming down their faces. You can say what you like about the "younger generation", but there are still a lot of them who "get it".

Speaking of tear-jerkers, I watched "The Other Side of the Mountain" last night on Netflix. It's the story of Jill Kinmont, an Olympic class skier who broke her neck in a ski accident and became a quadriplegic. She fought and won a battle to get a teaching certificate and became an elementary teacher. She died just recently, in her 70's. Sad and uplifting film and stars a very young Beau Bridges.

Aggiesmom, I believe "recovered" doesn't mean rescued. They recovered one body. I wish it had been the other way around but one family (at this point) will have full closure. I'm afraid there will be more fatalities from this storm.

Oh, how horrible. WAVY didn't report that. They need to find the missing crew member.

Yes, the funeral procession in Taking Chance had me blubbering as well. I need to watch that movie again. The airplane scene with the passengers standing watch is emotional as well.

Kirkland said...

readerlady, make sure you watch the sequel to "The Other Side of the Mountain". It's also available on Netflix.

It's a love story on how she met her husband.

Jo said...

I'm sorry, I've been trying to keep up with all of the post but does someone here have a relative guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? Please let me know.

My father guarded the tomb during WWII. I have pictures of him in his uniform and with his rifle looking so handsome and brave standing in front of the tomb.

I haven't had a chance to go through all of the post but did Kate mention not running the marathon in LA over the weekend? I have a friend who ran and I did not realize that Team ASPCA was named the Benefiting Charity for Rock ‘n’ Roll Los Angeles Half Marathon. Maybe that is one of the reasons coupon cabin cut ties with her.

@dowd24 I made a fresh batch of white bean turkey chili.. By request of my kids.. And a fresh loaf of bread :) yum


Sounds tasty, Kart. If I think of it, I will email Katherine for the recipe.

I gave my personal chef the day off and I made two big pots of chicken corn soup. So far so good here, I'm doing laundry as well and just puttering around. But first and foremost, my main concern is Kate and if she has had all the showers she requires. I'm also a wreck over the fact that her DWTS watching is being interupted by annoying weather reports about this historical storm, or rain thingy, or whatever. I'm sick about it ;(

The power has flickered here slightly a few times, but that's it. It's been more windy than rainy. Late tonight is when the real party starts.. yikes!

Hang on and hang in there, East Coasters! {{hugs}} to all!

PS check out my avatar, my kids found it... lol!

Sandy. Until now, I always thought of John Travolta singing the song Sandy from the movie Grease. Never again.

The last member of the crew of the HMS Bounty, the tall ship that went down off the coast of North Carolina is still missing. He is the Captain. Praying he is found.

Jim Cantori of the weather channel, storm of the century and he's in a protected area, not much flooding and little wind. He lives for storms like this. Feel sorry for him.

Jo, my sister's best friend from high school married a marine, lived in Seattle for awhile, then moved to Virginia where he has the honor of guarding the tomb. She is so proud of him. We are so proud of him. They are expecting their first baby. He is not scheduled to guard it in the next couple days, but he might be one of those guys in the photo from September. I'll ask her. I would give you his name for prayers and good thoughts, but there are some nasty sheeple lurking seeking to disrupt anything they can, even a man serving his country.

carezee said...

Kate mentioned the FRESH white bean chile because it is the same meal she fed them yesterday.

I am not so sure that the picture yesterday of Mady was taken yesterday and I don't think the Shoka picture was taken recently either. Not that it matters what I think anyway.

I am in upstate NY. School here has already closed for tomorrow. I spent the weekend preparing for this. It is pouring here but no real wind yet.

I hope all on the East Coast stay safe,dry and warm.

Kate Gosselin tweets: "Its not been worthy of 2 days off school" Wouldn't a real Mother want her kids as close to herself during the biggest storm in history? Kate really doesn't like being with her kids at all. Maybe Karma will bite her when kids don't want to be close to Kate when kids have their own life!
Hopefully kids will be with their Dad sooner rather then later.

Jo,
That's exciting about your father- how very honorable to have served that duty- it's a very selective duty I have heard. I, too, have seen the changing of the guard- I didnt cry (salt water belongs in the ocean, not on your face- I was told in boot camp) but boy, I did have goosebumps!

She's so cheap, she probably wants a refund on the two days she paid for and didn't receive schooling.
She ought to be thankful she has missed any bad weather so far.

*************************************
Yes, I real mother would but Kate is not a real mother to those children. It makes me so angry with her. I live in Hurricane country and with a spouse who is a firefighter, I was always left home alone with my kids during storms. I annoyed the heck out of them because I would make them stay in my sight during the storms. And may I just add that my children were in school during the 911 and I went to the school and pulled them out because I wanted to be near them. She is an idiot.

Back in the day, the guards were part of the Secret Service. My father was honored with the job of guarding Queen Mary when she visited the States. Am I a proud daughter after all these years? Oh, hell yeah! :)

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

It hasn't been worthy of two days of no school? So she's a weather expert now? Just because things look fine in your front yard doesn't mean it's safe to send thousands of school children out there on the roads. Not to mention, if there IS an emergency, that could leave kids STRANDED at school.

This is what happened to millions of kids in the blizzard of 77. They waited too long to send them home. They didn't call off school soon enough. They will never make that mistake again. My grandmother told stories of my uncles, who were still in the home, cooking up a bunch of food and walking it over to the school to feed the kids. She was a kindergarten teacher and refused to leave them. Those kids could have died trying to make it home. Also, because people were trying to drive their kids to school and whatnot but then couldn't make it through, the streets were so cluttered with abandoned cars it became impossible to get snow plows through in many areas making everything worse.

It was a completely mishandled disaster and it's lucky only 23 people died. So Kate that is why kids should just stay home during emergencies like this okay? I know you can't stand being with your kids but try to suck it up.

Butterfly that's what my friend said, that it's incredibly elite. I figured it was. He's done several tours of duty. He has served his country. There was a big ceremony when he was inducted that the national press covered. This young couple has been through so much--they lost their first baby. She has been miserable and alone without him so long knowing no one in Seattle. Then they moved and he got this. She is much happier now and they deserve everything this will bring.

It hasn't been as bad as I expected here in Berks County, but it might get worse overnight.
I hope a huge wind picks up her house and drops it at the NJ shore. Bitch (sorry).

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

It's understandable kids this age would just care about their favorite shows. But that's Kate's opportunity as a mother to teach them, in an age appropriate manner, why it was preempted tonight and to help them be somewhat aware of what's going on and how devastating it has been for some people. Kids are inherently selfish, it's the teachable moments like this that help guide and shape them into kind, caring, unselfish adults who don't throw a hissy fit when they don't get to see what they want to see when they want to see it.

I firmly believe you have to TEACH awareness and appreciation for the world.

My parents made the news fun. They would take us on vacation to places like NY and Washington and show us places frequently seen on the news--the stock exchange, White House, Capital. They would let us watch 60 Minutes and 20/20, this was before 20/20 was all murder stories, and we would talk about the stories together. I started to really look forward to 20/20, it was my special time with them and I still watch it to this day. I pretty much knew I wanted to major in journalism before I ever even went to college. This kind of thing doesn't happen by accident.

You have to do some leg work to engage kids but it can be fun too to watch a child learn to be interested in the world outside of Nickelodeon.

The folks in the town I grew up in are upset because the fishing pier that has been the forever is now gone. You're really teaching your kids some good values.

Admin I lived through the Blizzard of 77. I was a newlywed and working in downtown Buffalo. It was fine going to work. The friend of ours that I carpooled with wanted to go home because they said on the radio it would be a storm we would be telling our grandkids about. It was nice and sunny early in the morning and so we went to work. By 10 you couldn't see across the street. They let me leave work but it took us hours to make it 2 blocks. We ended up staying in City Hall for 2 days before someone could come and get us with their 4 wheel drive. The wind was so bad that when we went outside the wind lifted me off the ground. My friend had to grab me by the shoulders to keep me on the ground. Things were such a mess that the city was closed down for a week. The thruway and streets looked like parking lots. People couldn't see where they were going and the drifts were so high they had to leave their cars. Buffalo was definitely not prepared. The National Guard had to come in and haul snow away and take it south. I really wish that we would have had more warning than someone on the radio when we were already on our way to work.

--------------

She's nuts. I've been known to go to school and pick up my kids during severe weather because I didn't want them at school. I wanted them home with me.

Roads are flooded, bridges are flooded, areas have been evacuated. She lives in Berks County and has no idea about the conditions in Lancaster County where most of the students live. If something happened on that school bus, or if there were power outages or emergency situations at school she'd be the first one screaming..."why did they even have school knowing that a hurricane was coming?"

The school errs on the side of caution. She just didn't want to have to stay home with eight kids.

Schools don't like to close school. Among the many issues with it, oftentimes it results in a lot of issues with trying to make up the days later. They're not going to close unless they really feel it's necessary. It never occurred to me to question why a school would close. I assume they have a better idea of what the conditions and dangers are than I do just looking out my front window. And if it turns out to not be so bad, oh well better safe than sorry when it comes to all those kids.

Wow. She's getting antsy over the kids being at home and this is only Monday. If the schools are still closed by Friday they're gonna need an animal control pole to get her the hell out of that house. She'll be absolutely wild.

Parent In Lancaster County said... 66

Kate Gosselin tweets: "Its not been worthy of 2 days off school" Wouldn't a real Mother want her kids as close to herself during the biggest storm in history?

============

I agree with you, Parent.

Here in Virginia, all the universities (so far as I know) are closed. Hey, Kate, not just the children's schools, but the universities! UVA has only closed twice in 30 years. My daughter tells me the running joke there at the moment is they didn't even close for the Civil War. I wish I could bring her and my others home to be here--and they're all but grown. Kate has NO maternal instincts.

Virginia Pen Mom said...

Oops, sorry, it was originally "A Mom" who originally posted Kate's tweet, and Parent agreed with it and added to it as I did. I just second both your thoughts.

I can't say enough, for the support here- during Kate's Semi-Storm-Watch 2012. ("Or whatever")

We have been watching the updates TWC, since hurricane Sandy's inception, here in Los Angeles. She is one clueless MF, sorry folks!

Okay, I'll write about the potential Gosselin Reality Show-- only because I'm an 'armchair' expert, on the subject of said shows...

It has to be K-Dub (Kendra Wilkinson), of Girls Next Door. Always naked. Thank you for the hints, Robert! Keep safe, doll.

Hubby and I went through the options tonight...

Kim Kardashian? (No. Too pretentious, famous, rich, employed, and just NO way! ;)

Holly Madison? (No sex tape, that we have seen)

First guess was actually Pam Anderson, then I checked myself. Pammy would never be associated with an animal abuser- let alone a child beater.



Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

It's safe to say Pam Andersen wouldn't get involved with her no matter how much Kate wants to try to suck up. She has said very publicly that children should decide when they are ADULTS if they want to be famous. Check!

This is tragic. And this is why kids were supposed to be kept home from school and kept inside today, KATE.

JoyinVirginia said...

During Hurricane Isabel years ago, which was a monster storm in Virginia/ NC, tiger only people who died in my area were people who went out in the wind during three storm, and had a tree fall on them. After the storm, trees with roots in saturated ground may fall on people and vehicles too. Excellent reason to keep kids home and people off roads!
Hey, Dancin With Them Thar Stars is extending voting until 11am Tuesday because of storm! Vote for Saint Tony of the Ballroom and Melissa at ABC.com, or by calling 8008683406!
Tonys studio is in NYC, we have to support him, he's affected by sandy!
Still raining here but wind never got bad. Just a little north, Fredericksburg area and north, and all communities on Chesapeake Bay, got tremendous amounts of rain, tees down, power lost. Central Virginia area just south and West of the worst of it.
I'm off hurricane watch now, going to bed. Thanks to everyone for your concern about all us east coasters in path of the storm. Everyone inland, be safe!

fidosmommy said...

I am being perfectly serious when I ask, "who is Kendra Wilkinson?". She's a "big name"?
OK, if somebody says so. Never heard of her.
And Kate might be pinning her star to Kendra?
I'm sorry, even if Kendra was as famous as
Elizabeth Taylor I think it's sad that Kate has to hang on coattails to get anywhere.

fidosmommy said...

never mind. I just Googled Kendra Wilkinson.
Yee haw. Well, what can I say, really? Now I know.

AuntieAnn said...

fidosmommy - I don't know who she is but it sure looks as if Kate is trying to imitate her.
She's gonna have to grift a tire pump to get her boobs that size though.

I was going to say I can't believe she'd try to shill her kids again but what am I thinking. This is Kate Gosselin we're talking about here.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6.5 million without power as of 2:30 EDT

JW said...

JoyinVirginia,

I voted (texted) 10 times for Tony and Melissa. I am so hoping they get a lot of votes tonight and will stick around for next week.

I knew Tony had family in Conn but didn't know he had a dance studio in NY. Hopefully they both faired well.

You mentioned the area of Fredericksburg getting hit hard with Sandy; that's where my brother lives and I didn't get to talk to him tonight so I hope he and his family are okay.

I agree with those of you who think it is Kendra that is helping Kate, she fits all the descriptions Robert made. But I just can't figure it out, when would the kids have been filmed? At home by Kate? Is there any chance they were in LA too while she was gone though you'd think SOMEONE would have seen them somewhere?? I'm just perplexed.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

If it is Kendra, how can ANY sheeple be left after that? She's Playboy trash. But hey if it makes Kate a buck she'll film, no problemo.

Any mother would rather scrub floors with a toothbrush for minimum wage than do this to their children. At least you can hold your hide high scrubbing floors and feel proud of those paychecks.

AuntieAnn said...

Just checked out Kendra's blog.

"MY Upcoming Events

Aug 22, 2012 at 12:35pm by Kendra

Nothing right now, but be sure to check back soon..."

lol! Kate and Kendra would make a good pair.

dee3 said...

Hi all~
Had gone to sleep and was awakened by our 40 lb. sheltie leaping on top of me. Scared the heck out of me. The back wall of the hurricane was coming through (around 1 am. EST) and the power had gone out due to the high winds and he was scared. So I lit some candles and turned on the battery-powered radio and he calmed down a little. I think the combo of the sound of the high winds, the trees swaying back and forth and the power outage just scared him.

He does this when he gets scared....he'll literally leap right on top of you if you're lying down....or even in the recliner.

About an hour and a half later, the power came back on.....and he and I were dancing around cheering (hubby is at work). I was SO happy and surprised. I'd figured we would be out of power for at least a day or two. I'd texted my son who lives nearby to see if his power was still on....but he must have gone to sleep.

We were REALLY lucky here in northern DE. REALLY lucky. NYC got hit hard...lower Manhattan flooded....water flooding into the subway system. NJ hit really hard and areas of PA hit really hard. Bucks County, PA...they say trees down all over the place and massive power outages.
Things are calming down in Rehoboth Beach....but they say that lower down....Fenwick Island, Indian River Inlet....all flooded. Thirty something people killed in the northeast so far from the storm....many due to falling trees.

Apparently, an older guy was out on the back porch letting his dogs out to go to the bathroom in the backyard.....when a tree fell on the porch. And his poor wife was back in the house...can you imagine? Terrible.
Two people killed when tree fell on their pickup truck while they were in it.

Kate has no idea how lucky she is. And that tweet about the 2 missed days of school was terrible. I used to love it when my boys would get a day off from school unexpectedly and we would all stay home together to weather-out a storm.

And there have been several children already killed here in the northeast due to this hurricane. Wait until she gets to see what a lot of the rest of PA looks like. Trees are down ALL over Bucks County PA and most of the roads are impassable, they reported on the news.

One of the thing that has fascinated me is that thanks to camera phones and social networking sites (facebook, twitter)....thousands and thousands of photos have been sent to the news outlets and they've shown many of them on TV. Back in the day, you had to rely on the photos taken by the news cameramen.....but today, everybody can be a news cameraman........and you get to see so many more photos and of so many more places during events like this.

Well...now the dog and I are wide awake and I'm starting on my first pot of coffee. :D
Boy oh boy...were we lucky here in northern DE.

grandee4 said...

Just checking in, everybody doing ok? Did I read right, Kate is bring herself down to basement, guess she's leaving kids upstairs lol. Kate get a picture of you and Shoka in the basement. 15 mph winds, ha! She better check her panties. 3 more hours of work and iM out of here until Fri night. I'll be reading here a lot for next few days. I can get cought up. Stay safe, still praying for yall

Greedy Gosselins said...

I'm wondering (well, not really) if Kate would have still gone to LA for that running gig if CC hadn't let her go. Would she have left her EIGHT *rolling my eyes* kids with a nanny? Or would they have gone to Jon's? I guess we'll never really know. I do think Kate had a baby sitter staying there with her. She really cannot handle her own children without help.

And her calling this storm 'SuperFun' is just so wrong. It's insensitive, bordering on cruel and just completely unecessary.

I get that she wants people to think she and her kids are having 'family bonding games' (gag) but the 'SuperFunSandy' is really over the top.

She needs a publicist or something. Twitter is just not doing her any favours.

Turn the weather on tv you idiot. I'm done

Vanessa said...

I believe the Mayor if Maryland said, and I'm paraphrasing, " I don"t know how I can make this any clearer, stay off the roads. People die or are killed in these types of storms" You think she'd have got a clue about what the "public" sees as being insensitive (even if SHE doesnt) after the hundreds of comments she read HERE about her "bombs or whatever" journal entry.
This storm, one of the worst in history, is FUN! Yay! But you curl uo into a blubfering piece of jelly like the world IS coming to and end after a sky-jump? When your flight is detoured? When your toddlers get into things(from being "unsupervisesd") and make a mess? She is such a puke!

Please stay safe everyone, worried about all of you in it's path,, and worried for you. Stay put, and maybe do play a game...the waiting game, until this is all over.

TLC stinks said...

I don't have any idea who Kendra is. Goes to show how far Kate has fallen.

Survived in DC. Watched local news all day and night. Exhausted. No power outage for me but the wind was horrible.

barbee said...

Tidbits from WI:
The wind and rain from Sandy is affecting people as far west as Kenosha WI. They have advised a certain area of the city bordering Lake Michigan to evacuate due to high waves.
Here in Pewaukee (west of Milwaukee) it is just really windy and raining quite hard. Darn, I have nothing to whine about.
And re school closings, around here the bus company makes the call, which makes sense as they are the ones transporting the children through the bad stuff.
Hope everyone remains safe and that SHE develops a leaky roof, generator craps out (after all, it is a used one because she can't afford a new one after spending her last $500 on a meat slicer). Is that nice? NO. But does she deserve it? HELL TO THE YES!

honkytonklady said...

Someone posted about Kate and Celebrity Wife Swap. I have to agree, especially because when you look at Kendra's twitter, she was in Philly around the time Kate left and Kendra lives in CA so they probably swapped for about a week. Whatever show she filmed, it was probably only a one time thing. Can't imagine any network wanting to deal with her.
As for Sandy, we live in south NJ and thank God it wasn't as bad! We still have power, could have been much much worse! Everyone please stay safe!

Improbable Dreams said...

Robert uploaded a new post in which he calls out Kate for her cold-hearted #SuperFunSandy tweet.

http://gosselinbook.blogspot.com

TLC stinks said...

Ah, that celebrity wife swap makes sense. The kids were filmed at home. Here we thought they were with Jon. Kate must have gone clubbing with Kendra's husband in LA, so the sighting?

I looked at Kendra's photos. Kate sure was trying to look like her with the long blond hair. I agree it was a one time deal. I'm sure Kate shrilled the whole time. I wonder what she and Steve got payed. Kendra and Kate are nasty.

localyocul said...

Kate has had more than one person tweet her that she looks like Kendra. May be why there weren't more sightings of her. If she was with Kendra's hubby she may have been mistaken for her. I can't imagine Kendra leaving her kid with Kate! She seems like a loving mom! Although editing can be deceiving as we know...

When was Kate spotted in LA?

honkytonklady said...

I don't think Kendra's husband was with Kate because he was in DC on the 22nd of October, tweeting about how he can't wait to pick Kendra up and take her to the museums in DC. This is all speculation of course!

localyocul said...

Nevermind, it WAS the same week. CC canned her on October 16. That was the week she had been MIA. She tweeted she was good a few hours before the public firing, which is why tabloids thought the tweet was responding to the firing. It also makes you wonder if her filming in LA while she was supposed to be promoting CC and SGK had anything to do with Kluth calling her inauthentic and firing her.

localyocul said...

Kendra's son will be 3 in December. So he is the same age Kate's sons were when she beat them, put them in cribs for 4 hours, and pulled one up by the hair.

President Obama has declared major disasters in New York and New Jersey.

Seven subway tunnels in New York City are flooded, crippling the city's transportation system.

A major fire destroyed at least 50 homes in Queens.

The New York Stock Exchange will remain closed today.

The economic toll could top $20 billion.

Tucker's Mom said...

What a day, what a night! In the DC area, it was a terrific (not in a good way) rain and wind event. But...we kept power, the dogs are fine (still wet and smelly) and it looks like we're now getting the tail end of the storm. Wind in picking up again, but nothing like yesterday.
You'd have to have rocks in your head to even begin to joke that Sandy is "super-fun". Idiot.
Our birds are feasting on the window feeder. A day without being able to peck at food has left them starved. Sadly, it appears that we lost a squirrel in our front yard. Fell out of the tree?

All I can say is that if Kate was filming (and I highly believe that's what she was up to a couple weeks ago) Wife Swap, she is officially a horrid mother and disgusting human being.
I admit to watching Wife Swap, probably about a half dozen times and this was a few years ago. To the best of my memory, the shows were pretty much all the same. Create an untenable situation for all, the kids cry and then the moms face each other and talk about how each one could be a better mother. It's sick. Whoever puts their own flesh and blood in the path of such sickness should tear up their mother card. The stupid dads too.
The show is pathological and if Kate did this, then my gosh, I hope that Jon can have her mentally evaluated. I just feel for those kids more than ever.

ABC will announce in Dec. (like last year) who the cast will be when it airs season premiere in January. Then we will know. I hope Robert's book will be reisseued before then. Bravo to the poster who suggested Kate filmed this show. Makes sense. People used to want to see her in a wife swap show.

ABC does not want the cast leaked so it makes sense no one will confirm to Radar.

I would not worry about Kate having much to do with Kendra's child. She is too wrapped up in camera time. Oh, back in 2009 Kendra blasted Kate for exploiting her kids. Funny, huh? I found that nice little gem while googling her.

I hope everyone on the East Coast has survived the storm. I am praying for you.

tate said...

I just looked at the Celebrity Wife Swap site and I have to say they have very D list people who do that show. Gary Busey, Tina Yothers, Tracey Gold, etc. People who have pretty much fallen off the radar and are probably trying to revive their careers. Kate is welcome to it. It will all be scripted anyway. It is just one more gig for her, but definitely won't put her back on tv full time. She'll probably have Mady singing and dancing and reciting Shakespeare in hopes of landing a Disney job. Why did Jon agree to go along with allowing the kids back on tv??

Hello, Kate, having fun reading here? Saw that you posted some old photo of Shoka when asked to post a new photo. Also, after your tweet about Mady (the golden one) reading a bedtime story (with voices) to the "littles", you post an old picture of her with a storybook. You are ridiculous.

#SuperFunSandy? KK calls this megastorm SuperFun??!! At least 70 people have died (including the Bahamas and the Caribbean); 21 states, as far West as Wisconsin, plus Washington, DC are affected; millions are without power; who knows how many have lost their homes; entire cities have had to shut down; it will be months, if not years to rebuild and recover from all the damage, and KK thinks it's SuperFun??!! And some people call Jon a douchebag! Did any of her Tweeties call her out on that hashtag? Any of them? If not, then they are as much lowlifes as KK is.

If KK did do a Celebrity swap with Kendra Wilkinson, I dare say Kendra fared better with the G8 than KK did with Kendra's 1. I'm not a fan of Kendra, but she at least seems to have a bit of sense. KK doesn't have the sense God gave a Goose (or a Gosselin(g),for that matter).

Hope everyone woke to less rain and minimal to no damage. Here we are having snow, but the temps are above 32, so it won't last. Mostly branches and lots of leaves down. Some trees lost, especially the larger, older trees. Some power outages here and there, but mine didn't go out, for a wonder. Since I'm rural, we seem to lose it when no one else does. Schools are open. County was on 2 hour delay, but that was because of the snow and some icing early. Up near the lake it's much worse. Dwindle, How are you? Librarylady? Cherier1? Mrs. Malaprop? Kiwi? Any other Buckeyes I've mislaid the names of?

chefsummer #Leh said...

I don't see Kendra or the Kardashian teaming up with Kate.

1. Kendra is a bunny and a ditz however.

She has was better business sense than Kate.

She knows how to market herself unlike Kate.

She's not a fan of Kate's.

Hugh Hefner doesn't isn't a fan of Kate's. Kendra loves Hugh.

2. The Kardashian clan

Why would Kris share the spot light with Kate?

Why would any of the Kardashian share the spot light with Kate?

Kris is all about the $$$ I bet she doesn't want negative press so I doubt she would deal w/Kate.

TLC stinks said...

I think ABC revamped the "Wife Swap" to kick up the ratings with D list celebrities. I looked it up and it averages 6 million viewers. Not something I care to watch, not even tempted.

heather, we are just speculating. The 2013 cast has not been released, but the timeline fits.

Anonymous said...


OK, thanks. It's hard to tell sometimes. I've never even heard of this show, sounds disgusting.

I would rather not speculate anything as I'm sure Kate is tickled pink that people think she will be back on TV and her name is being associated with "stars" as well as a big three network.

But that's just me, so I will scroll on by.

Sigh. Shaking head in disgust.

For Robert Hoffmann said...

Yes Robert, Kate Gosselin is the most disgusting person most of us can think of. I for one, would love it if you would reconsider total exposure of her. She needs an enormous dose of humility. I know you promised someone that there were certain things you would not disclose. Maybe time to go back to that person and see how they feel now. She is a terrible human being and I use the term loosely. Super Fun Sandy? I'm stunned.

dee3 said...

What is a hash-tag? Is it anything like those search tags you use on google? What does it mean on twitter?
-------------------------
I watched Wife Swap many years ago when it first came on TV....but don't you still need to have a wife, a husband and child/children in order to participate? Or are they now having "single" parents participate?

I don't know what to think about RH's blog entry about the reality filming entry. Kendra sure does fit the criteria more than any of the Kardashians do. Kris Jenner seems to be quite a shark and I think she might put up with anyone's behavior...even Kate's....if there was enough money in it for her.

This latest RH blog entry sounds like Robert has just about had it with Kate and her attorneys. They must be aggravating the hell out of him. He's sure not playing nice anymore....."most disgusting human...".
Whew.

NJGal51 said...

I'd never heard of Celebrity Wife Swap until just now. If true I wonder how the kids will be portrayed. Having seen some episodes of Wife Swap the kids and the husband are normally "pips" also. Kate will be the poor,plain, stay at home mom swapping lives with the glamorous Hollywood wife? If true it's a one shot deal. Next step Celebrity Rehab?

So, in Kendra's Twitter she says she arrives at her hotel, Oct. 15. She arrives home Oct. 21. Several tweeties ask her where is/was and she does not say.

It is amazing that Kate has tried to look so much like her. I wonder if she walks in to the plastic surgeon with Kendra's picture and says, "Make me just like her."

Thanks, Robert, for calling out Kate with that incredibly cold tweet regarding Sandy. I hope you include much more in your republished book. ITA, she needs to be called out. Any word on Shoka?

Kate was fired Tuesday October 16. She had been MIA since about the previous weekend, or 10/13 or so. Here are Kendras tweets from Twimemachine.com:

Preparing for something big. :O LOL Sat Oct 13 19:46:12

I have a long ass travel day today. I don't even know where I'm going to be honest. Hahahaha ;) Mon Oct 15

Just got to my hotel room and turned #MNF and I like what I see. GO CHARGERS!!! Woooooo!!! Tue Oct 16

Well I just had the longest week ever to say the least. I've been away from home too long. I miss my babies so much!! #bottomsup LOL Fri Oct 19

Home, sweet home!!!! I finally get to hug and kiss an squeeze my baby. Been over a week. Happy Sunday!! Bye. :) Sun Oct 21

So if all this is true, Kate wasn't even around when her kids maybe went to school and heard about mom's public firing. And it really looks to me like this is what is going on. So Kate does NOT have a new show, she has one episode.

This Kendra thing all adds up and now I think it had a bigger role than I thought in her firing at CC.

CC probably had certain obligations they wanted her to fulfill that week that she told them she couldn't do. She also may have in her contract that she is supposed to inform them about other projects she takes part in for approval, since she is a representative of them. (Just like how Jon said TLC wouldn't let him do that Super Bowl commercial.) When they found out it was Kendra, this wholesome midwest family values couponing company told her she couldn't do that and still work for them.

Kate being Kate of course picked being on TV for ONE EPISODE over her long term gig at CC and told them screw you I'll film what I like you can't stop me just you try to fire me. Scott couldn't believe she would spit in their faces like that after all they've done for her, bending over backwards for her. He also couldn't believe this "wholesome" mother of eight would really choose this project. His eyes were open that she was inauthentic, hypocritical and the like. Scott saw his company and all his charities in jeopardy for associating with her and this project. So Scott said screw you back and fired off that letter. He called her bluff. Makes sense to me.

lonnggg night here in south jersey. All is well today. My opinion it wasn't as bad as Irene was last year but still up there. We were directly in the path. No power lost. God is good.

What woman in her right mind would leave their baby with Kate for a week?

What woman in her right mind would leave her children with ANY stranger? I've always thought this Wife Swap show was highly unethical. Haven't they had some controversies too? I think I remember there was a suicide in one family after they swapped and got a lot of negative public attention....

Hope everyone in Sandy's path made it through the night safely and intact!

I see Kate didn't have enough curiosity to even look outside after she got up this morning.

@Kateplusmy8
We are safe!Storm was mild here!We are fine&altho I haven't looked outside yet,we feel fortunate, spared&warm! Prayers4all w Sandy damage!

Her stupidity has left me speechless. She MOST DEFINITELY never matured beyond her preteen years. Her lack of empathy proves that. And her SuperFunSandy diary all about fun, DWTS, reduced fat Triscuits, ice cream and her figure!! It's not possible for a person to be any more shallow, just not possible.

I hope everyone is o.k. on this sobering morning.

We're o.k. I just feel sad for the folks that did not do so well in this storm. My prayers go out to these people.

I've been glued to the t.v. set. So much destruction, lives lost, property damaged.
Too much to bear.

But that numbskull, Katie Irene had a SuperfunSandy! Fun! Fun! Fun night!!!!

Robert Hoffman is correct. Kate really is a disgusting human being.

To those affected by Hurricane Sandy, you have my prayers. Stay safe & sound.

No amount of money would be worth leaving my baby with someone who ADMITS that they pulled a toddler up by the hair and slammed them into the crib as hard as they could.

It's on ABC. The network of the View. The swapee's don't know who they are swapping with until they get there.

Checking in from Northeast Ohio -

My sister and I lived through a hurricane in Miami when we were kids, we remember the rain coming 'through' the windows. But I have not lived through anything close to that until last night. In 2002 a tornado marched right down our street, but that was not the kind of sustained battering and anxiousness that we had last night.

It was still dark this morning when HunnyBunny left for work, but we took a tour around the outside of the house with flashlights this morning, checking the siding and the roof as best we could. It is still raining and blowing and that made a look-see even harder. Now that it is light, we lost a 60 year old willow, which landed on a young 16 year old oak (that is young for an oak) and broke the top off the oak. I dont know if it will come back, probably will.

Took HunnyBunny 4 times as long to get to work due to massive debris in roads, flooded roads and non-functioning traffic lights.

BUT! We are good! no loss of food, or belongings! We had hurricane snow last night and might get some today too. My mother lost some shingles on her condo and ended up with a leaky bedroom ceiling, but someone is coming about it this morning. She is good. My frail ex MIL is ok, I will go over there today so she can talk it out, and so I can see with my eyes if her house is ok. My ex husband just LOVES it when I do that! NOT! lol.

My area of Ohio isnt done yet, but I think the worst is over. The flooding in my basement laundry room is receding, and I will be making good use of the shop vac today and the gallons of bleach I stocked up on.

PS, it is really hard to sleep with wind, rain, and debris slamming into your bedroom window all night. Who knew?

Hope you all are ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-------------------
I don't understand....don't you technically have to have a husband in order for the wives to be swapped? They allow someone's child/children to left with a single parent on the show now?

Is it possible that Kate G. and Kendra were filming something else? Or something additional together that week? Or would it have to have been Wife Swap?

My recollection of that show was that it was critical to have both a wife AND a husband. Plus...aren't the swapped wives supposed to spend that week at the homes of each other? Wouldn't Kendra have had to have spent that week in PA at Kate's house? I thought that the premise of that show heavily relied on the swapped wives' interactions with each other's husbands. Have they radically changed the show from when I saw it years ago?

Best wishes to all who are still dealing with the serious effects and after-effects of Hurricane Sandy. We were very lucky here in northern DE.

Localyocul said...

I remember at least one regular wife swap episode that had a divorced mom. I think the dad was part of the show too.

Sheri said...

Eastern Ontario here...winds were crazy around 2:00am and blew over our gazebo, ripped our side gate from all but one hinge and knocked a few large branches out of our Maple. No rain though.

I can only imagine what it's been like for those of you actually IN the storm's path. Thinking of all of you and hoping you are safe and well.


Tucker's Mom said...

I think we can assume that Kate was filming when she pretended that the very public firing from CC never even happened. And omg, if the kids were involved with filming when the shit hit the fan, and Kate wasn't there for them, then I can not agree more with Robert. That is disgusting.
Time will tell.

JoyinVirginia said...

TLC Stinks, I agree with you. I don't believe the kids were with her at all. I don't believe the dog is there either.
I know everyone is focused on northeast right now, everything looks so bad on the news. Cleaning up after flooding is awful. There is major damage in outer banks to, for anyone who wants updates Dare County has great information at darecountyem.com They get hurricanes all the time, they have a lot of practice with emergency management.
A lot of counties along Chesapeake Bay still have roads in low lying areas closed because of flooding, damage, or trees down.
I feel so much sympathy for families and crewmates of the Bounty sailors who were lost. That Coast Guard rescue is just a high-profile example of what they do every day.
Everyone keep checking in about your area when you can. I learn more about the smaller areas here than on the Weather Channel which is focused on NJ and NYC mostly.

Virginia Pen Mom said...

@deannatweeting are you guys ok this am? Looks like it was worse for you in NYC then us here in my part of Pa...

=========

Gosh, Kate, do you think so?? Wow. Just wow.

Carrie Ann said it the best: Hate has zero self-awareness.

Virginia Pen Mom said...

I really meant to type "Kate" not "Hate." (No kidding.) I guess my keyboard has its own opinion, too!

Pity Party said...

If this is true why would she have the makeup artist with her. And if she was filming the dating show didn't she once say that was Jamie's concept and that she would be involved. She never mentions Jamie anymore yet Jamie oddly came and spent a week with her and KT just couldn't look at the dust on the stove vent another moment thereafter. Sort of like the mystery man (probably Mr. Smith who could only be PB - think pizza - the man loves pizza) that left preparation for his own home to go and clean her gutters and for whom either she or hopefully Katherine provided a meal. If you eat at her house you must literally sing for your supper.

Who leaves their kids alone to be filmed while you go across the country to film with some stranger's kids while you leave your kids with THAT stranger??

This show is just insane and it's not just Kate.

Weren't some sheeple upset the kids were allowed around Jon's girlfriend? Um, but it's okay to leave the kids with Hugh Hefner's girlfriend??? There is no way her sheeple are going to approve of this one. No way.

What was it she did recently that they didn't really like or say much about? I'm blanking.

Poor single Kate! College funds, blah blah.
What will shock me is any woman who calls herself Christian to follow Kate IF she left her kids with one of Hugh Hefner's whores.
Yes, I said it ;-)
I wonder if Kate and Steve did it in the Grotto.

One of her fans asked her not to go on WWHL again. She was tweeting with other fans that that show did not reflect her fan base.

Are you serious? That is downright frightening. A family in my area got carbon monoxide poisoning from having the generator inside.
Darwin award.
Kate has been shown over and over again never preparing. Just witness the Gosselin puke fest. I do better prep when I take my dogs somewhere.
What an idiot. And the sad thing is, Kate thinks playing the ditzy blonde is oh, so cute.
Yeah, when grown women act like little girls it's so cute.

Admin,

Do you have confirmation through your sources that she was filming wife swap with Kendra?

heather

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Local yes that's it! Thanks!

Yeah her fans did NOT like Watch What Happens Live.

If they have a problem with that show what will they think of Kendra?

chefsummer #Leh said...

Kate can do anything and her sheep will lap it up and kiss her butt.

They will bash the haters and Jon and praise Kate.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Heather, no I do not have confirmation.

It just seems logical to me. Especially with Kendra who just happened to be in Philly and go MIA at the exact same time and tweet at the same exact time that she also had a very long week.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

They didn't tow the party line for Watch What Happens. They were just sort of quietly disappointed.

I think even the sheeple may have their limits.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

On the bright side, if this is what she filmed.....

I GET TO RECAP IT!

Dmasy said...

I had to look up Kendra...knew nothing about her? I didn't know there was a Celebrity Wife Swap.

But....an Admin recap. Oh yeah, I am perched and ready!

Anonymous said...

Last week everyone was convinced she was filming a dating show. Now, it's wife swap. Who really knows???

I hate that Kate gets her NPD feed off the speculators.

Just looking for facts, that's all.

Well Kendra better watch out and keep Hank by her side.

Cause we all know that Kate's looking for a rich tall man.

And Kate likes stealing men from woman.

I firmly believe you have to TEACH awareness and appreciation for the world.
******************

I think I was 14 during the Apollo 13 crisis. I remember being annoyed about 'my show' not being on and all 3, count em 3, channels that we had at the time had nothing but news on them. My mother said, "Yes, dear, but this is history, now you really should pay attention to what they are saying and teaching." At the time it was Walter Cronkite with a couple of plastic rocket models in his hands trying to demonstrate what was going on, not like the experts and graphics and satellite feed the news carries now.

I remember asking "What happens if they cant fix it up there?" and my mother saying "Then they will die up there, I'm afraid, and several kids like you will lose their dads."

THAT is how you parent during a time of crisis, Kate, not get annoyed and validate your kids' self centeredness over a reality show. Otherwise your kids will be the only ones of their generation who dont remember anything about Frankenstorm. And you'll think it's cute when your daughters say "huh? Whatever!" and you'll think it is stupid, clueless, and beating-worthy when your sons do the exact same.

dee3 said...

OHHHHH! There's a Celebrity Wife Swap.....I didn't realize that. I was thinking of that wife swap show from years ago with just regular "mediocre" people on it. I didn't realize there was now a Celebrity Wife Swap show.

Yes...now it makes so much more sense to me. I couldn't figure out how they could work single mom Kate into the premise of what the original Wife Swap was.
Ahh....so with this Celebrity Wife Swap....the wife (or husband) doesn't need a legal spouse. I see that Flava Flav had a fiance fill in.
NOW it all makes sense to me. I kept missing that this was a different version of the original show.
Plus....couldn't figure out why RH would suddenly make an entire blog entry about something that was old news. No wonder Kate was so happy...fun, fun, fun.

OK...now this sounds like a very possible theory. Can't wait to see it if and when it shows (and this from someone who normally can't stand to watch her....but I think I'd have to for THIS).

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I love it, abandoning a STEADY JOB and not doing your best at your STEADY JOB just to film ONE episode of a T.V. show that is long now over and done with and now she has NOTHING.

Talk about not seeing the forest through the trees.

AuntieAnn said...

Meh. We all know Kate's going to spend the rest of her pathetic life wandering from one stagnant gig to another to try to keep her wretched self out there. If it's not a tasteless reality show with with a porn star it'll be something else. It won't make a bit of difference. You can put an evening gown on a pig, smear lipstick on its face and soak it in perfume but at the end of the day it's still a pig. Her hey-day is over.
It's just sad that the kids have to witness their mother decline into madness a little more every day.

Ingrid said...

Hey, Kate tell the parents of the 8 yo killed in PA by a falling tree how much SuperfunSandy! Fun! Fun! Fun night!!!! you had during the hurricane
