PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Not going to LA afterall......horrible turn of events" |
Jeanette and I were supposed to leave for LA tomorrow to do our interviews for FOX Reality TV, but that's not going to happen.Jeanette called me at 10am today to tell me she had the itinerary and was printing it out as we spoke. She was really excited for the trip. 20 minutes later she called me crying hysterically that something terrible had happened and she couldn't go to LA. Jeanette and her daughter recently moved in with Jeanette's boyfriend. He has a 2 year old son who stays with him once a week and every other weekend. His 3rd birthday party was set for next weekend. Jeanette's boyfriend has a lot of guns and since Jeanette and her daughter moved in he was in the process of making sure they were all unloaded and locked away so no one could get to them. This morning he was finishing that up when he had to run to the back of the house to let the dogs in...he placed a gun on his living room table. His son walked by, grabbed the gun and accidentaly shot himself in the head. He hung on for about 3 hours before dying at the hospital. To make matters worse, Jeanette's 18 year old daughter had just woken up and had walked into the living room right as it happened so she saw it. I was at the hospital with Jeanette and about 50 friends and family all day....needless to say it wasn't a fun afternoon.
Jeanette told me that I should still go to LA and do the interview, but obviously I'm not going when my best friend is going through such a tramatic event.
I don't know if its gonna be rescheduled or not...I'll post an update if there is anything to post about.

Oh no, oh wow, such a senseless horrible accident. Shakes, I am so sorry. I know it's hard when a friend is hurting to know what to do, but you just being there for her will help. I am sending prayers in my heart, that poor family. You hang in there Mike, You know I heart you, and am sending *HUGS* to you and your friends.

Oh my God! That is horrible! This made me tear up.God's blessings on Jeanette's boyfriend. The grief and unneccessary, but understandable feelings of guilt, must be tearing him up. God bless you for being such a good friend to Jeanette.
If a fund of some sort is being set up, will you let us know?

74. "update" |
first, thanks everyone for their kind thoughts. The bad news is that this has been all over the news. The good news is that the media and the police seem to be going out of their way to point out two things....one, that it is being treated as an accident, and two, that the father was a great dad who absolutely loved his son and was always spending time with him. There were lots of interviews with neighbors who said stuff like that.
Some of the "facts" in the stories have been wrong, but nothing substantial. They are meeting with the police and DCFS tonight...hopefully nothing bad will come of that.
This is just crazy....to think, as I write this me, Jeanette and her boyfriend were supposed to be on a plane right now to LA.

I can't imagine having to be questioned by authorites while suffering such a horrible tragedy. My heart really goes out to Jeanette and her family.Ok, now my heart goes out to you. I'm really sorry your second chance at DAWdom is delayed once again. You know, if I was a superstitous type...first 9/11 now this. Anyway, I know you are truly concerned for your friend, and that this time, it's really personal, but I did want you to know that I'm also sorry that your opportunity was dashed/delayed once again. I know you must be personally disappointed, and that's ok. Sending GOOD vibes your way. -true
