Amazing Race-On to Estonia

That boat ride from Sweden to Estonia is next on my bucket list. The overnight crossing looks like so much fun! Better than riding a train from one country to another. Nothing beats sleeping to the lull of a water ride.
Sam and Dan are getting on my last nerve. They are just too rude and not cute about it. Hey, at least if you're gay-give us some diva attitude! At this point, I really don't care who wins, maybe I'm hoping for team zebra to pull ahead, but they are the lame duck in this case. I'm sure it's going to come down to the final three, Meghan and Cheyne, Sam and Dan and Globetrotters.
I knew father and son team would get eliminated. How dumb can you be when you don't know what a Candle--bra is?! As Matt scratches his pink hair. I think all that pink dye has fried his brain cells. Even Gary was off his game this go around. If it weren't for his Dad, Matt would have never left the LA basin hunting for the license plate that had the clue. Adieu with you Gary and Matt!-Single D

Survivor Samoa

Winning the immunity challenge, safe from elimination;
Merging with the other tribe, a big feast;
Playing the immunity idol at tribal council when you least expect it, PRICELESS!
Did you see the looks Laura and her posse during tribal when Russell slipped out of his pocket the immunity idol. It was Hil-lar-ious! Of course special editing cut out what was really going to happen at tribal council, so the suspense was intense. Demonic Russell had that evil grin as he turned over the idol to Jeff. Is he an idol scavenger or what, finding the idol like he did. Have to give him snaps for being so persistent. Let's see how he does next week when it looks like there is going to be a free for all looking for the next idol. I would LMAO if he found it again!-Single D

Let's Make a Deal Update

Disappointment again as we check the airdates on CBS.com, still our show is not listed for the month of November. Called the 818 number listed under tickets. I was told that the September shows have not been scheduled, but that they will air, probably when the show goes on winter break, which probably means January!!! Come on Wayne! You remember us! We gave you a FAM poker chip from work! Wayne Brady we want our prizes and to see our show! Pleeze!-Single D

Let's Make a Deal

We have been anxiously awaiting our taping to air on Let's Make a Deal. After numerous excited calls to Shannon at Let's Make a Deal, she finally said the date was going to be Oct 26. We were so excited, Donna brought sparkling apple cider and chocolate cake to work. We turned on the show, and there was the lovely Allison wearing pants. Hey, she wasn't wearing that during our taping! Aw MAN! It wasn't our show. When I called Shannon she said that they moved the show because it was sweeps. Either that means it was really really bad or really really good. I'm thinking really really bad. Donna and I had that sinking feeling that maybe they will never air the show and if the show doesn't air then we don't get the prizes! And that would STINK big time. After all, you are so excited and thrilled to get picked because it is really hard to get pick and then to win something is even more thrilling. Shannon assured me that rarely happens. But what if we sucked so bad??!!! UGH That would be so awful!!! I'm mad as heck! This postpones the prizes arriving as well, as you don't get the prizes until 10 to 90 days after the show airs! Furniture and cars can be up to 180 days! I want my prizes!!!! WAAAA where's my diaper!-Single D PS! You can view airdates on CBS.com-click on Let's Make a Deal, then airdates and there it shows show number, taped date and airdate. Look for ours it's show # 1011 taped 9/25!!!

Amazing Race-Needle in a Haystack

Ok, I was so hoping that one team would get caught up in the haystack challenge till the wee hours of the morning, shades of a la previous season. Much to my dismay all the teams did relatively well. It was an ugly shouting match tho with brothers Sam and Dan. Go ahead Sam, you have my permission to deck your brother. Gee, nothing is so annoying as someone telling you how to find the needle in the damn haystack. Ok, you get out here and do it!! I think Meghan and Dan would be a better pair for both their whining ways. Nah, Dan bats for the other team, shucks! I would have loved to see poker girls at this challenge, which I'm sure macho Tiffany would have done it. Looks like the flag was hidden in the very middle of the bales. I knew the Globetrotters would get lucky and find their flag, no problem, as karma smiles on Little Big and his birthday.
Remind me, I must go to Sweden just to ride the Fritt Fall, now that's my kind of ride. I love the Tower of Terror at Disneyland which is especially fun, free falling in total darkness! Didn't think that Erica would have the wherewith all to find the arrow on the ground, but she did. Poor Brian, afraid of heights. Matt lets dad Gary do the bale challenge, what's up with that? Matt is such a wussie (hey any guy with pink hair is a wuss) making them the last to step on the mat. Lucky for them, this was a non-elimination stop!-Single D

We're Contestants on Let's Make A Deal!

The other day at work, Donna and I both noticed that the new Let's Make a Deal was being taped at the Tropicana Casino in Las Vegas. I went on the website and saw that they had free tickets for the taping to be contestants, all you have to do is sign up for tickets and you get an email confirming the tickets. On the website you can chose the date and time you want to attend. I signed up for a 2:30 taping on a Saturday. I signed up and called Andy. When I told him we were going to be contestants, he was like, I'm not going to do that! What a party pooper!
Why are husbands such a drag? So Donna signed us up, heck why not, we could both take off work, after all it's not every day you get a chance to be a contestant. We came up with the idea (don't know for sure whose idea it was) to be babies. The rules said that homemade costumes were "encouraged". How more homemade could a diaper be? We ran down to the local Halloween Mart and picked up some gigantic pacifiers and a bonnet (more in the Betsy Ross style). Donna had to buy sheets to make her diaper, me, I fitted into my king size pillow case, altho my ass was flat as a pancake (had to stuff my diaper with towels, very uncomfortable to sit! Nothing like walking with a wad between your legs!). We wore black tights and a pink top, fashioned bibs out of napkins and wore our famous purple/pink wigs. I looked like a cross between a scary baby and a scary french maid! Donna looked like she was was a baby swathed in a loin cloth. That diaper of hers looked like it had a load that kept wanting to migrate down to her knees. I thought we looked so scary and ridiculous. I told her why is it we can never be glamorous? The tickets said that the door opened at 10:00, and after hearing horror stories that lines for game shows can be crazy long, we decide to get there at 7:30 am. I was like thinking if there are thousands of people, I wasn't waiting, diaper or no diaper. We walked through the casino, people were staring, pointing and looking like they were watching a car wreck, (come on people, haven't you ever seen girls in diapers!). We get there and there is not a single person there. The game show people told us to come back at 9:30 which was just a well because I forgot our fantastic sign at home and Donna needed to make adjustments to her baggy, saggy diaper. We get back at 9:30 and stand in line. When the lane opens, we are contestants 1 & 2. We fill out the paperwork. One of the forms was tell us something funny or interesting about yourself. I was drawing a blank. Ya, I know there is something funny and interesting about me, I just can't think of it! After we make our way to the photo line where our pictures are taken, then past security to a second seating area. There a producer comes out and casually chats with each of the contestants while a second producer takes notes in the background. Donna and I being first, chat with her and then she moves on. Of course we were so fired up, we were chattering like two chipmunks, when the producers told us to shut up! Ok, so we were a little hyper! We were so funny, we could be our own comedy team, we could have our own talk show, we made them laugh and everyone like our costumes.
Next its on the the next holding area right before you get into the studio. There we waited about another hour. Donna and I had to go to the bathroom several times. Do you know how hard it is to take off a diaper?
Next they let us into the studio. By then there were about 158 total contestants. Donna and I were in seats 1 & 2 and prominently in the front row, how awesome is that? For the first 30 minutes, the stage director makes us go through a series of cues, laughter, shock, applause, hooting and shouting. And the Oscar goes to....Boy my throat was so sore. We're both sweating buckets in the chilly studio. I was getting pit stains! I could feel that my shiny face was blinding the camera. I must say it was about that time our energy started to wane, we were quickly becoming cranky babies, not to mention the fact that from 7:30 on we really didn't get to eat or drink anything.
Then the taping begins. Wayne Brady comes out. He is really cute but is slimmer than what he looks like on TV. The camera really does add 10 pounds! His legs are really skinny and his shoes were pointy and very shiny (I bet they were real patent leather!). Wayne comes out and asks for the first person to show him a nickel. A girl shouts and he gives her $500.00. The next contestant wins a golf cart. The taping is done in segments, with a couple of breaks. One time when Wayne came out, I happened to catch his attention and he said Hi to me! The next thing I knew, he was pointing to me, cute baby (cute baby?). Surely he wasn't looking at me (he had to be looking at miz boobs two seats away, but he was! OMGOMG! I go up and he offers up 70th anniversary edition of the "Wizard of Oz". He asks me, if I've seen the Wizard of Oz, of course! He asks me what is my favorite part. There I freeze like deer caught in the headlight? The entire studio waits for my answer. I meekly say, "The Woods". I couldn't believe my ears! Am I that lame? I was so frozen at that moment I couldn't think of a single thing! Wayne went on to make some jokes, of which I have no idea what he was saying, only that the audience was laughing ( at me or at him?). Next he says, he will give me the dvd which has money in it or I can trade it away to contestant Danielle, and play for what is behind door 3, which opens to a trip to Puerto Vallarta. I scream like I just won a trip around the world or something for heavens sake! Gwad, what a nit wit I am! At first I'm not understanding, I have to play for the trip? I ask Wayne what are the chances? Lame comment # 2! He says, what am I, a poker dealer? I give away the dvd to Danielle. Cut to break. Next they bring out a board with 6 cards on it. Wayne says I have to pick three that match. At first I'm thinking they are picture cards, you know horse, donkey, cow, but they are playing cards (uh dud!). I ask Donna for a number, she picks 3. I pick 5 and 1 and tell him that they add to 9 which is Chinese for luck, lame comment # 3! He turns over card 3 which is a 4 and then turns over card 1 which is another 4. Then he turns over a card that I didn't pick which is another 4. The audience is screaming. He then tells me, I can chose to continue or pick what's behind door number 2 which opens to a plasma tv, Beatles collection, PlayStation, electric guitar and drums. I'm stunned. What should I do, continue on for the trip or pick the sure thing. All I could think of, if Andy were here, he would have picked the correct cards. Sure thing, gamble, sure thing, gamble... Moments feel like hours, when I tell Wayne, I'll take door 2! The audience is clapping! He turns over my last card and it is a King. I jump up and down like some crazy whacked out contestant on some game show. I just won an electronic package!!! I scamper back to my seat, Donna and I hug! It is so hard to be in the moment, everything you learn goes out the window. I became jello, mush, a mind full of split pea soup and therefore the lamest contestant in game show history.
Danielle now has my dvd that I gave to her. Wayne sweetens the deal and gives her another dvd which has money in it. He tells her she can keep the dvd's or trade it for door 1. She trades the dvds, which he opens and both only held $1.00!!! We were so relieved, because if there were thousands of dollars in it I would have cried! Danielle gets a exercise package. And lastly, he ask Danielle if she would like to be the big trader of the game and give up her door for a prize that is worth $23,000! Who wouldn't? She goes for it and wins the car! Game over. All in all, it was fun, but a really long process that started at 9 and ended at 3:30. The chances of getting called on are pretty slim unless you can be the first with something that Wayne asks for. For the Donna's we got really lucky. Somehow the planets must have been aligned just right, the signs were all in the right place and we somehow Karma came to us, we got really lucky. The four people left the line and we moved into seats 1 & 2. We sat in the front row, we had our sign, and I caught the eye of Wayne who probably noticed our purple wigs. I'm glad Danielle, who was dressed like Pocahontas, won the car, she was standing in line with us, chatted with us and deserved to win (stay at home mom), plus she was really nice, good for her! The only thing is that I'm sure when I watch our show, I'm going to look like the biggest nerd on national TV. UGH! I'm so stupid-the woods!
By the way, you can't trade in your prizes for cash. All prizes are shipped to your address, so my daughter eagerly awaits her PlayStation, my husband and I will enjoy our plasma TV and Donna will get the collectors edition of the Beatles. All in all a good day for the Donna's!-Single D

Survivor Samoa

By the looks of things, looks like the ultimate survivor, Russell is finally running out of options. What was he thinking showing too many people the idol. He's an idiot. Go ahead Russell, say it, I'm an idiot! Just when I thought you might be able to lead the Stepford survivors and win this whole thing, Russell, in his I am your leader here is my secret, spills the idol to one of the most cunning girls of Galu, Laura. Would you trust her? She just does not have a trusting face. In fact her face says to me, I'm devious, cunning and not to be trusted. I missed the whole celebratory meal of the merging tribes. Guess it was the same old usual, food and drink, I was on the phone. Didn't my friend watch Survivor?
You knew once individual immunity was won and this time it was two, one for the boys and one for the girls, how nice, let the blood letting begin. It was just a matter of time, that the Galu boys would start to eat their own and looks like Eric's big ole head (er mouth) was just too much for any of them. Sad, but fun to watch. Eric was the only one who could say what everyone else was thinking, so much for talking out loud. Nice trap they laid for Russell to expose the immunity, but a really neat gotcha blindside for Eric. Oh well, guess he'll just have to be happy that he's on the jury.-Single D

Amazing Race-The Netherlands

This season has been really good. I absolutely love all the places they've been to and I especially have a soft spot for the Netherlands. I always think this is an easy country since everyone is so nice there and they speak English, but they challenges were daunting for some, namely the poker girls and team zebra. How hard is it to count church bells, granted they are ringing in your ears. Little Miss America was so frustrated and moving at such a slow speed when she was counting. Hey this is a RACE! Brian deserves the gold medal of patience for his understanding her inability to count the damn bells. That was one of the easier challenges, no eating horrible stuff, no heavy lifting, no bungee jumping off buildings in a single bound. And who knew hitting the button to ring the bell would be the undoing for the poker girls. What is wrong with Maria, she is so weak! How ever has she survived living? Her attempt to hit the button with the mallet was pathetic! Come on, put some muscle in it. Tiffany almost did on the 75th try, but she must of had too many callouses to put more strength. They performed horribly in everything which is not surprising. Poor Tiffany should have gotten another partner other than Maria, who sucks at absolutely everything, how is it that she is a poker champ? I'm glad they're gone, why prolong our agony? Nothing like Phil coming out to the challenge site telling the team you have been eliminated because you suck at everything you do, not to mention that what could be more humiliating than to get eliminated in one's underwear in the freezing cold! Team Zebra is sure to be next with Miss America whining at every turn, BBBBBRRRIIIIAAANNN!!
I had to LOL when globetrotters where doing the Dutch dance, it was hysterical as they put their own jive into it, hey that's what I'm talking about. Can't wait for next week's challenge of the haystacks, sure to be the undoing for Team Zebra or Megan and Cheyne.-Single D

Survivor Samoa and Amazing Race

Well, this was indeed a surprising Survivor. Who knew Samoa could be so miserable? And it rained for forty days and forty nights.....
Every one's fingers and toes look like raisins with the skin ready to come off. How miserable it is that you have to sleep in the crook of a tree sitting up or under a banana leaf. How nice that Monica got to use the blanket when everyone else was shivering wet and cold. Meanwhile, demonic Russell is getting stronger and stronger while everyone else is getting weaker and weaker. Russell is relishing the hard times and the physically challenging weather. He is a demon! Russell S. is trying to prove himself King of the jungle by over doing the work around camp and is ready to collapse with shear exhaustion which he does during the challenge. I'm like thinking this will be a first if we see him expire right there and then on the spot, as his eyes glass over like a dead deer. Jeff said that was the scariest moment in Survivor history. Yeah, a near death moment. What a way to go and who knew it would be in paradise. I was mad that the plan to get rid of Monica didn't happen, now if only Shambo can keep her big dumb mouth shut, it might work next round.
Amazing Race-Dubai
Dubai looks awesome, how about that Atlantis Resort where they had to do the water slide down the leap of faith. Poor Mika, who could blame her for not wanting to do that? I was dumb enough to do a water slide at Magic Mountain, sliding down almost vertical and going so fast that when I reached the bottom, my bathing suit top was completely over my head! I'm sure the guys at the bottom have seen many bathing suit tops up over faces. Guess that 's why they fight for that position.
Just dumb luck that Globetrotters squeaked by Mika and Caanan. The Globetrotters embarrassed themselves by not knowing how to tell time, it's not any different in Dubai, but redeemed themselves at the gold calculations. And hey, if Big and Easy were coaxing Mika's fears on at the top of the slide, so be it, it's a race for heavens sake, good thinking!-Single D

Amazing Race-Where is the Persian Gulf?

Where is the Persian Gulf? Ah dud! At least Miss America knows where it is as she tells Brian, it's Dubai, surprise, surprise, because that is where the tallest building in the world is at. Now why would anyone want to build something touches the sky? Too scary, no wonder it brought tears to Mika thinking she was going to have to bungee off of it when all they had to do was to retrieve their clue. I'm putting Dubai on my bucket list although, I thought Vegas was hot, yes Virginia there is some place hotter than Las Vegas, Dubai! At a temp of 120 that's way hotter, yes Jeff, way hotter! Don't think I would want to live there, but to see that indoor skiing rink and that immense sand would be fun.
What happened to change Lance- talk- alot to Sir Lancelot? Lance looked like he was eating humble pie this episode, he barely did any yelling as he tells the camera, that he thinks he'll keep Keri, seeing how they've spent expenses on their wedding. In other words, he doesn't think he'll be able to get a refund for the tuxedo rental, so he better be nice to Keri other wise she might dump him after the race. When they were eliminated because they were as Keri said, directionally challenged, Lance barely went out with a whimper. Well, they weren't going to win anyway even if meathead made some amends. This episode was fun, from being hotter than hell to freezing ass cold, a good time was had by all. -Single D

The New Bachelor is!

Dallas commercial pilot Jake Pavelka! Ok so he did throw himself at Jillian, whom I'm sure at this very moment is regretting that she picked Ed ( that snake, womenizer ). Why do girls always chose the bad boys? Let's hope that Jake is not the mama's boy that he appears to be. He did come away last season as that weepy wimpy clingy guy, yuck! Girls hate that even if he is a pilot. Come fly me with down to Acapulco Bay, ah don't you love Sinatra? -Single D

Amazing Race-Cambodia/Survivor Samoa

I think it should be a rule that you must know how to say the place you are going to. Geez, put a lisp in it. Cambodia. This episode was a near perfect leg for Zev and Justin with the exception of one major mistake, losing the passport. It's a wonder they lost their passport, did ya see their packs? When they crossed the finish line, they knew they were missing one, how's that? I'm thinking if they knew they were missing their passports why didn't they try to go back and find it? When Phil told them to step aside and go through their things, did you see what their packs looked like? No wonder it's missing, what a mess. Wouldn't you keep the passport in a wallet on a string around the neck? I know whenever I go with my passport, it is safely tucked under my shirt around my neck. I bet those two never even ventured out of LA.
When Zev and Justin along with Lance and Keri arrived at the airport only to find that the first flight out of Vietnam was booked, I thought for sure one of those teams would get the boot, but as dumb luck would have it, they both managed to get on board with the other teams.
Still hate Lance and Keri and poker girls. Maria was all weepy because she wasn't a good enough monkey. Get over it, heavens you got one of the easier challenges! Act like a monkey, how hard was that? Poor Zev, he really did look like the clumsy school boy when he couldn't do that monkey act. He pitched a hissy fit, I know, my bad.
True stupidity reared it's head when most of the young'ins didn't know that it was Jackie Kennedy in the picture. Leave it to dad Gary to figure out that was Jackie O. Who was it that said it was some Cambodian princess? Mika or Meghan, both are dumb as rocks.
I so totally loved the Russian Market, for sure I would have lost that challenge being so distracted with all the stalls and souvenirs. Wait I need to buy presents!
Well, better now for Zev and Justin to leave, they weren't going to win the race anyway, I'm just surprised they lasted as long as they did.
Survivor Samoa-
Funny that the two people who think they are running things are named Russell. Pudgy Russell has my vote to win this thing, he is cunning and devious, although he better watch out, some one's bound to catch on to his game play, if he doesn't eliminate them first. He has everyone so duped they just follow his instructions like it's Stepford Samoa, so they deserve to get the boot. Speaking of Stepford Samoa, the other team is like Stepford Survivors with all of them doing their morning yoga and stuff. The only two not Stepford Survivors are Sambo and Yasmin. Someone forgot to operate on them to remove their personalities. And why was Jaison getting all upset when Ben called Yasmin "ghetto". Why does it always have to be about race?? Come on, I use ghetto on anyone that has no manners, who is crude, rude and a big mouth which was totally Yasmin when she visited the other camp. Hello, you were just supposed to visit and lay low and get the dirt, not dish it out. No excuses for Ben, but he was just calling it like he saw it, I don't think he thought about race. Well, Yasmin was voted out because she just wasn't Stepford enough. I hope they keep Sambo around but she is so at odds with her team but I don't think they will kidnap her and bring her to the big house to remove her soul and take her lifeless eyes. She'll never be Stepford. I think she's waiting to see if Rambo will rescue her.

Amazing Race-Vietnam

My new favorite team is the Harlem Globetrotters, Big and Fat or whatever their names are. I'm surprised that they are travel savvy, either that or they've had great luck, but it's still early. The team that screws up but have yet to get eliminated and are on my very last nerve is Lance and Keri. Are they dumb as rocks or what. I would not want Lance defending me in a trial, he'd end up at the wrong court house. He's a better handyman the way he tore into the vcr tear apart challenge. He's more brut than brains. Come on, he doesn't know to look inside the bullet for the clue. I was so hoping they would be lost FOREVER! I bet Keri didn't even know they were in Ho Chi Minh City! Another team that forgets to use their brain, Zev and Justin, go ahead take the biggest most awkward animal to push all over Vietnam. Come on, low center of gravity, hello! And if I were Tiffany I would have pushed that statue right into Maria's big butt, hello, need some help here! Maria just went merrily on her way collecting balloons on her way to an afternoon tea party. Poor Tiffany was so exhausted I thought she was going to pass out. Swift kick to Maria, this poker friendship is over! Too bad Marcie and Ron got eliminated. Didn't anyone tell them this was a race? I think they thought they were going the park or something, but at least it looked like they were having a good time. See, now if I could only mellow with age! -Single D

Amazing Race-Japan and Vietnam

Amazing Race premiere did not disappoint. It was tense from the get go when Phil said in his dead pan style, racers begin racing. No wonder he didn't win the Emmy, at least Jeff Probst gets his Dr. Phil on with the Survivors, which by the way, totally hate that Russell or in the words of guest Blogger Jeff "He is a devil. I just hope that he remembers in these reality shows whenever someone says that they are controlling everything and everyone, that little light they see toward the end of the tunnel is not really the opening, but the train barrelling down the track toward them. Hopefully he will be reminded of that next week."
I was disappointed that the Zen yoga couple didn't make it out of the starting gate. I wanted to see more yoga in the hood out of them. The couple to hate this season is definitely Lance and Keri with Maria and Tiffany, the poker players a close second. That Maria, what was up with her, is she so delicate that she can't stuff a wasabi roll down her fat throat? Gwad she gives Asians a bad name. And I'm sorry, Assburger (or however you spell it) that Zev is just plain odd. Brian and Ericka are pretty pathetic at any challenge and probably won't last long as they try to politely urge each other on. Dark horse, no pun intended are the Harlem Globetrotters, Herbert and Nate or Big and Little whatever, I think they might give everyone a race for the money. Good places so far, Shabyua square is definitely on my bucket list as well as Vietnam, truly amazing.-Single D

Kanye West Learn Some Manners!

I didn't watch the VMA's since I'm like a billion years old according to my daughter, but in reality, I was probably watching some other reality show. The next day in my car on the way to work, I heard a snippet of it on the radio, the announcers were like that Kanye, was that staged? Was Beyonce in on it? When I heard the whole thing, I was wondering what did Taylor do after he did that? The next evening I just happened on the rerun of the VMA so my daughter and I watched. Thankfully it was on at the very beginning because I don't think I could stand to watch something I would have to ask my daughter, whose that? When Kanye jumped on stage and grabbed away Taylor Swift's mic away so he could tell everyone who he thought should have won, I was floored! (which by the way, I love that video "You Belong to Me"), Who the H does he think he is? What a jerk, what a classless ASS! or in the words of Obama himself, he's a jackass and who in my opinion doesn't deserve any ounce of fame. Taylor on the other hand proved herself poised beyond her 19 years and graciously said her thank yous afterward and quickly left the stage. She is a role model to all young people. Even the next day on The View, she continued to be well spoken and mature about the whole thing. Kanye, on the other hand, is not in anyway a role model. He continues to blame his outrageous actions on the death of his mother, even going so far as trying to squeeze out dry tears on the Jay Leno Show. He describes himself by saying that some celebrities take the time off to mourn which he didn't, meaning that he's a celebrity, oh brother! Your bad manners stem from the fact that your reality of fame has gone berserk in that over sized head of yours. No amount of apologizing can ever get back that moment that was to be special, a once in a lifetime feeling for Taylor Swift and you blew it! Kanye, you need to do more than just apologize for your bad behavior, you need to realize that, shocking, the world does not revolve around what you think, in fact, no one cares what you think, no one gives a damn, so get over yourself, man up and become something resembling a decent human being. Oh by the way, boycott all things Kanye, probably the only thing that would bring him down would be $$$. Kudos to Beyonce for doing the right thing! -Single D
