<p>first news of jon and kate’s separation…and now this afternoon more news…the governor and the argentina story…i don’t know if i can stand it anymore 
how bizarre ! is this some kind of crazy dream we are all having ? summer blockbusters for sure ! i think i need a vacation…and no internet for a while ! missypie…you can plan it !</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>As bad as I feel for the guy’s family, what a hysterical story! Umm…I was hiking…well, I wasn’t exactly hiking, I was in Argentina…well, I wan’t just a tourist, I was with my girlfriend…and umm, I’m the governor of a state but I didn’t think anyone would notice me in the Atlanta airport or that I used my passport. GUYS CAN BE SO STUPID OVER SEX! Do you think he and Bill Clinton have talked yet? It’s amazing how many men are willing to self-destruct over sex.</p>
<p>that’s a really good point…self-destruct… weird, weird,weird…</p>
<p>can we send these 2 guys (jon and mark) off somewhere?..they can have a chat with one another…</p>
<p>maybe to…“i’m a celebrity…”</p>
<p>maybe the next season can be filmed in argentina? where’s it at anyway now…the amazon rain forest? …i have no idea.</p>
<p>If I were Jon’s girlfriend, I wouldn’t want to be on the show (unless the money was good…).</p>
<p>The girlfriend is a teacher? I could see Jon working IT for the school district. Not an overly ambitious job, but you get benefits and a nice retirement plan. Plus his girlfriend won’t think less of him.</p>
<p>How could she think less of him? She has ample evidence that he is a lazy, cheating loser.</p>
<p>^ZM, I meant in terms of his employment–some women would probably think that working a 9-5 job with the school district wasn’t showing enough ambition.</p>
<p>Girlfriend probably thinks that the poor guy has been beaten down mercilessly by the hated wife. Probably thinks that with a little TLC and nurturing, she can “make something of him.” Aaah, the delusions of the other woman…</p>
<p>We talked once about whether you would advise a young person against marrying someone with loads of school debt. Would you advise a young person against marrying someone with 8 kids to support?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Think he’s had more than enough of TLC. Ba-dump-bump.</p>
<p>Thankyouverymuch, I’ll be here all week.</p>
<p>
Yikes. Jon is young. I didn’t really think about the implications of a new partner who was young and wanted a family. </p>
<p>Jon and Kate plus 8 plus Jon and De plus 3.</p>
<p>Based on his maturity level, he will be attracted to the 22-26 yo crowd. And those girls are gonna want one of their own. One day. Or maybe he plays the field, and at 45 when he is grown up he decides to have a second family… Maybe at 45 he marries a 22 yo, the age of his twins, and has kids the same age as his grandkids. He could milk the money train for a long time with all the reality possibilities…</p>
<p>
I would advise against it. I would advise even more strongly against being the “other woman” or second wife in Kate’s life.</p>
<p>Yes, can you imagine Kate’s reaction to having the “girlfriend” be part of the show? Really, TLC needs to pull the plug on this.</p>
<p>I just scanned the responses since Monday. Maybe it was just me who picked up on it but if I heard Kate say one more time “my kids”, I was going to throw something at the TV.
My H has caught a few of the shows and now whenever he gets mad at me he calls me Kate. He thinks it is funny and I got to admit it does make me laugh…</p>
<p>BP–all right, you made me laugh!</p>
<p>I think that if Kate could have her wish, she’d want Jon to remarry, start another family, and leave her and her kids alone.</p>
<p>I can’t imagine why any young woman would have any interest whatsoever in Jon. Has she ever watched the show?! And that’s not even considering the fact that she would be involved with Kate as the ex and eight kids, as well? Where is this young woman’s mother?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Last I heard, trying to bail Drew Peterson out of jail.</p>
<p>^OUCH! teriwitt!!</p>
<p>I really enjoyed this blog/article on Monday’s episode from Yahoo:
[‘Jon</a> and Kate’: The Big Announcement - Yahoo! TV Blog](<a href=“http://tv.yahoo.com/blog/jon-and-kate-the-big-announcement--423]'Jon”>http://tv.yahoo.com/blog/jon-and-kate-the-big-announcement--423)</p>
<p>The bigger press articles from Yahoo have been ones of the few good things that have come from TWoP’s sell-off.</p>
<p>
Oh MERCY! Post of the day!!! </p>
<p>That is such a perfect statement of the entire situation.</p>
<p>I was puzzled as to why she filed in Montgomery County court since they don’t live in Montgomery County. Seems they have an antiquated and probably unconstitutional law that seals records. We won’t be privy to every detail that happens in court.
Sounds like a good idea, esp for the kids.</p>
