Thanks to all of you who thought it was so funny to use my words to inspire your recent posts! ;)
Gosh, I didn't know that my words could inspire real "minions" of all things and many other fancy things!! The joke is on you...
I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em all around
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
Its interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry
You dont really need to find out whats going on
You dont really want to know just how far its gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre stiff
Kick em all around
Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When its said and done we havent told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

Grrr!
I know, I know - I am long overdue on my SEX TALK hehehe! I will get on it very soon I promise; just for YOU!!
Figured out how to "spotlight" right on time, lol! ;)
If I hadn't I was going to have to call you right back!!
Go yellow team Go!!
Get those CD's out and listen to them!! :)
I hate unpacking and packing. Done that too many times in my life and I avoid it like the plague; but maybe??
Anyway, I thought this article was going to be about airing our dirty laundry but I don't see anything juicy in here. :o(
How's them apples.
A threat? I have the letter that I sent you this morning before you commented and after you commented on it. What is there to hide my dear?? I don't understand why you are getting involved in something unless you have a guilty conscience and furthermore you are the troublemaker aren't you? Who do you think you are? God? New flash! You're not! ;)
I told you I don't hold grudges and I don't.
You have inserted yourself here, honey.
Show where anyone directly goaded you, your first paragraph above.
This is just beyond ill, honey.
She's sexy like her Daddy was.
Sharon has no room to call any thing "ill".
And in regards to my email to you last night. I sent you an email to apologize to YOU for getting upset at YOU for writing ME an email to cuss me out and threaten me and call me names about Clinton on your friends article. Now where is your friend now honey?? That is not the point. The point is that I owed you no apologies and yet I was bigger than all of that and yet you still come on to my thread and call me on something that has nothing to do with YOU! Whats up with that? I don't need any cronies to stand up for me. I am grown and I can stand up for myself and fight my own battles. Who elected you the body guard of all on Gather??
"Ill" - hmm...
But if you'd like for me to do your laundry, I will Penni dear. I would do it just for you my friend. ;)
Dirty laundry.... one thing everyone has...don't care how you live....
Someone in my family tried to tell me his sweat smelled like Roses......
Hmmm maybe dead ones at the bottom of a garbage pile...
es,lol, i don't have more than 10 pieces of laundry a week..not counting bedding...
we REALLY don't wear a lot here..:)
Everyone has dirty laundry and even skeletons in their closet but I promise never to let mine out lest someone really get upset. lol!! ;p
One of your family members told you his sweat smelled like roses?? Cute. dead ones at the bottom of a garbage pile, ROFL!!
You are funny Heather! I am calling you on Saturday so be ready hon!!
I know how Florida is Penni as I used to live in Tampa for almost a year while I was at USF taken a couple of courses back in 1982.
This will be my last communication with you. All of you people like to create chaos, don't care who you hurt (not me but I've seen it).
Your not worth the trouble.
Thank you for getting a life and leaving me alone. I thought that I would honor YOU with an apology even IF I was not in the wrong for YOUR insulting, demanding, and threatening email to me back when. I wanted a fresh start with my new year here on Gather with your being the only one who is on Gather now who I have ever had a problem with. You obviously did NOT deserve it and I honestly regret ever having sent it to you. It would just so happen to be your kind to propagate and continue on with this childishness that you had no business getting into in the first place.
For such a woman who is supposed to be so wise why is it that others must show YOU an example? Why is it you feel that you can just go around Gather correcting people and telling them to fuck off at the drop of the hat? Who do you think you are honestly?? These are questions you should ask yourself honey, not me, YOU as the senior to almost all of this group involved; YOU should be the one who is leading through example and instead you do this type of thing.
SHAME on YOU.
I will pray for you so that maybe one day you will see the error in your ways. God bless you dear.
I still like you! Have a good night.
Does anyone even remember Peyton Place?
Oh and Esther, I lived in the Houston area for many years and yes, it is HOT, HOT, HOT there too.
And yes Nurse Nance, Gather can be a little mini Peyton Place from time to time. There are those who feel that they can bully people around and people like me who doesn't bother anyone and yet this type of things happens.
My sincerest apologies to all and of course yourself for this as I really abhor this type of thing.
Yes Houston is pretty darn hot too but Dallas is hotter as it is a dry heat and miserable without air conditioning which is something that everyone has here. One would die of heat stroke otherwise.
I enjoyed you article. Nicely done.
I'm glad you enjoyed the dirty laundry...;p
I know what you mean honey bun! Thank you!! ;)
Oh by the way I have the other emails - keep lying little girl.
This will be my last communication with you. All of you people like to create chaos, don't care who you hurt (not me but I've seen it).
Your not worth the trouble.
I am a nice person but once bitten, twice shy is not my style. Sometimes one's niceness is taken as a weakness and I'm not the one.
All I want is to be left alone. If you don't want to read my stuff and speak civilly then don't read it. Its that simple. And no I do not desire yes people. I don't need a bunch of cronies to be my minions. I want to be taken at face value not on how big and bad I am and by how easily I can cut others to the core by insulting them and instigating fights and causing havoc within this great site.
As for the unwise bad-ass mama, she's not all that! She can't even spell her way through a good "fight". lol Her circle is closing in on her, while the rest of us branch out, make amends, heal, and move on.
When she has had enough, she'll flag your article and claim you're picking on HER, then run back to the catty "lion's" den and let them lick her (wounds).
You are so good with words aren't you?? I guess I'd better learn if I am to survive another year around here that or get thicker skin.
I have to disagree with you here, Esther. I believe you've got it backwards. The (majority of the) dirty laundry articles were written as a satirical response to someone who chastised a Gather member for "sharing their life with Gather, their friends, connections and perfect strangers".
As for what's going on between you and Sharon, I haven't a clue. Don't care either.
Please don't speak for me, Esther. My Dirty Laundry article addressed some serious issues.
Oh and Sandy I would never pretend to speak for you, of you, or against you. One thing that I have learned from being here is to have respect for those who do not bother or chastize one for any reason and let them live their lives. I appreciate that.
