</p>
<p>LOL, my guess is that the A-B listers are actually* employed*, and probably doing something that pays better than DWTS.</p>
<p>We really only watch when we adore someone - namely Shawn Johnson and Evan Lysacek. I watched a bit of the Donny Osmond season because we’re of an age and I was rooting for him.</p>
<p>Sarah Palin thought she had it bad with Levi? Just imagine 
if Bristol would date “the situation.” I’m picturing SP running for POTUS in 2012 and having him up there front and center with the family! Maybe “the situation” and Bristol could have a reality show called “wild in Wasilla!” The possibilities are endless with those two.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I hope Bristol is really great on the show. She’d be a couple of hundred thousand up and, essentially, get a free professional trainer and training regimen.</p>
<p>It might lead to the Batchelorette. Wouldn’t it be a hoot if this was a long term stategy of Bristol and Levi to get her as the Batchelorette with Levi on the show as a suitor! Or maybe Survivor-Alaska!?!</p>
<p>Well, if they tried to get Levi on “the Batchelor” they might have a tough time getting any women with more than one or 2 brain cells in their head to sign up for that.</p>
<p>Brain cells? Is that what drives that show? Man, I missed that altogether.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I suppose it would be sacrilege to actually pray for that, right? Because man oh man, would that be sweet!</p>
<p>LOL, 07dad. </p>
<p>After the last several bad outcomes, I think they are wising up a bit. </p>
<p>They could host a trailer trash season of The batchelor. That would be a hoot.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Guest host: Jerry Springer. Rules: everyone has to be related within the second degree of consanguinity or have conceived at least once with the Batchelor.</p>
<p>But Bristol looks to me like someone who has always been in someone else’s shadow. I hope she is not awkward and seized by stage fright. I hope she actually does well and can be proud of herself. You folks will have to tell me!</p>
<p>"Neither are educated and now there are people coming after them with offers and these offers involve both money and “fame” and likely feel irresistible to these young kids. "</p>
<p>What’s education got to do with it? I’m a Harvard Law graduate, and if DWTS ever offers me $100k a week to dance on TV, I’m there! (I would probably do it for nothing, just to get the free dance lessons/workouts and trip to California.)</p>
<p>Truth be told, for $100k a week, I’d probably be willing to do much more embarrassing things than learn to dance. Every episode would mean retiring a year earlier. Sign me up!</p>
<p>I agree with Hanna. At least Bristol is getting some serious money opportunities with most of her clothes on.</p>
<p>So we all need to have our own competition…see if one of us can at least become a “fake” celebrity, like the folks from The Bachelor, which might be enough to get on DWTS. Any ideas for reality competition shows? I used to sew but probably not good enough to get on Project Runway. Not attractive enough to get on that old models show.</p>
<p>Since Hanna, 07DAD and I are all interested, it has to be a spin on 40-50 something attorneys…ah, I can see the ratings now! Maybe a lawyer version of The Apprentice, with a team from Harvard Law and a team from SMU Law…I know folks who know Harriet Miers…she could be on the SMU team…We’d have to do lawyer things that we’ve never done before, like defend a murderer or something. What do you think?</p>
<p>Oh, missypie: the competition for CC parents is obvious… “what would you do to get your kid into Harvard?” Would you eat worms? Mud wrestle? Snort jello shooters?</p>
<p>I don’t know if jello snorting, worm eating, mud wrestling middle aged people are really what DWTS are looking for…</p>
<p>missypie --if you know H. Crow maybe we could get him to get Justice Thomas to go on DWTS!?!</p>
<p>I’d watch THAT!</p>
<p>Oh my, I’d watch that, too!!! Do you think he would be as creepy as Tom DeLay was?</p>
<p>Probably depends on who the partner was.</p>
<p>OMG, this is genius…it could be a DTWS season with Justice Thomas and Anita Hill and Long D__ Silver and whatever members of that senate judiciary committee who are still alive…</p>
<p>You just brought back awful memories I had successfully blocked of Tom Delay wiggling his butt on DWTS. Thanks. :(.</p>
<p>Justice Thomas and Kate Gosselin, I’d pay to see that!</p>
