I got the feeling that Jesse was much more of a player than he let on. He alluded a few times to "waking up next to a total stranger," but seeing as he's a friggin' NFL quarterback, I'm sure he didn't let on that it was happening every day in every town he played in. There was just nothing about Jesse that gave me the impression that he was on the show for any purpose other than raising his visibility as an athlete. Maybe it's just that after hearing the lines from the fifth bachelor, I just don't buy the "I'm here to find someone to spend the rest of my life with" crap anymore. But I personally thought that Andrew Firestone was much more into Jen, and vice versa, than he was in any of the women this time. The one that I liked early on was the medical student chick who told him not to pick her, because she wasn't in to him. I kind of wish she hadn't told him that, and he'd given her a rose, only for her to say "no, I won't accept it". I've always wanted someone to not take the rose. |

When all the firing went down here... It stressed me out sooooo much. I wasn't sure if it was even going to be me... but I felt so bad for my friends. I've been through that before, and it SUCKS. The last time I went through it, Iwas told first that i was not being let go, then had to sit in my office knowing most everyone else was. I felt horrible for them, and wanted to do SOMETHING for them. But at the same time, I felt like persona non-grata because I was the one not going through what they were. Ugh, that was a BAD day. |

UGH!!! Is right! I was given the Business is Bad speach and it was kinda hinted that I was in the safe zone... but be cause we were friends as well as partners, the boss couldn't keep it bottled up that he was about to let the other two go... each a month apart. I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW THAT INFO... but on the other hand I could see that it was tearing my boss apart. He had to share.  I had to sit at lunch with my two friends knowing they were about to go. One had just purchased a new Lexus... *shivers* I still have nightmares about that. Maybe that is what the squid dream was all about... being pulled in so many directions. Watch out Freud... here I come. |

Yeah I used to have my office in the human resources department, even though I wasn't officially a part of that department. They wanted me in there for translating and also for security reasons. So whenever anybody was gonna get fired, I knew about it beforehand, but of course I was sworn to secrecy. It was really hard to look those people in the eye knowing their heads were gonna be rolling by the end of the day.

In an exclusive interview with Stacey Gualandi of "Inside Edition" to air tonight, Culkin, the father of the "Home Alone" star, who famously became one of Jackson's child friends, previewed some of the material in a book he is preparing.
Culkin recalled one particularly surprising encounter: "There was Michael, sitting on the floor in the corner with my 2-year-old son, Rory. Both of them, yes, both of them, sucking on baby bottles. This, as might be imagined, backed me up some and caused me to simply exclaim, 'Michael.'
"He at first ignored this utterance, his eyes shifting from place to place about the floor. But when I repeated his name in the same manner, he did manage to glance up at me, before sheepishly shrugging and returning to this bottle-sucking business."
Culkin continues: "What I tried to make of this incident, I don't recall. What I do remember is my subsequent remarking on it to several of my kids, and how, at this mentioning, they simply stuck out their lower lips, looked to the ceiling, and shrugged.
"And the truth is, further, that he (Jackson) seemed, at very most, harmless enough. . . . I wasn't prepared to get all bent out of shape over it. The children loved being with him, and he loved being with them."

Suh-weet! What brought that about? Just think ... as soon as you're licensed, you've already got a contact that can make you millions. Just represent Madam Adam in selling and buying all his multi-million dollar homes, and you'll be set for life. Well I've been looking for something to get into to make some extra money. I've been debating for years whether or not to go back to school and get my Masters. I still may do that eventually, but at this point in my life I've decided I don't want to return to the hell and poverty that is working full time while going to school. Mainly because after I finished, I'd probably still make less money than what I'm making now. Actually what I'm thinking of getting into is being a loan officer, but you have to go to real estate school first before you go to loan officer school. So I'm there. And that's a GREAT idea about getting Adam as one of my clients! All I have to do is find the house with the brick wall that Wacko posed against, and that'd be a sure sale! |
