    I would be much more impressed if they were neighbors who were technologically savvy, repair men or women and could do things I need done to trade massages for. 

    What am I gonna do with Conan O'Brien?

    At the moment Jim and I are bigly fans of Kelly Clarkson, Duane Johnson (THE ROCK), Michelle Obama, Melissa McCarthy. We used to be fans of Paula Deen in the long ago but then that blackface thing hit the news and we were no longer. She was just another prejudiced southern white woman. Some folks have personalities that just pull you in. Gene Wilder for instance. Or Dick van Dyke. Robin Williams. So many. Too many to list. It would not be a matter of being "impressed". It would be a privilege to become friends with folks we've admired and enjoyed. Andy Griffith.  We live on MAYBERRY STREET for goodness sakes! That is not accidental Sharon. We chose this place to rent BECAUSE of its location. Thank you for your reply. Different strokes! :)

    I don't think Paula Dean was prejudiced AT ALL.  She was unfairly portrayed.  She was not a jerk.  I don't believe it.  I saw her on TV with black people and if she is faking her behavior, she is WORSE than TRUMP.  I don't think she is a sociopath.  I think she got a raw deal from disgruntled employees who were out to get revenge.

    I may be wrong, but I think there were a LOT of jealous people out there who saw her get FILTHY RICH and did not like it one bit.  She worked her hind-end off for all she had and I admire her.  UNLESS I AM WRONG AND SHE IS A BIGOT. I won't forgive that kind of thinking.


    Nope.  Rosie, you were RIGHT about her.  A TOTAL BIGOT. I had no idea how wrong I was.  God, I just read what she said in defense in her court transcript.  OH MY GOD.   IS SHE NUTS?  She IS Trump.  This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at September 21, 2019 3:42 AM MDT

    Your choice. She threw a party and had folks there in blackface. There are photographs of it Sharon. She did apologize. How was she set up? Why would she have apologized if there were nothing there? So don't forgive me. Suit yourself. No problemo. Thank you for your reply. Honestly triumphs over everything right?

    Nope. YOU WERE RIGHT all the time.  I was reading an article about her to make sure I knew what  I was talking about.  I DID NOT KNOW what I was talking about at ALL.

    SHE IS A RACIST BIGOT AND A JERK.  See my finished comment above please too. LOL  When I am wrong, I am wrong.  I am so sorry to be wrong about her.  What a jerk.
