You can’t knock her when it is for a charitable cause, so props to her on doing it for the kids!
You are right about that Todd. Thanks for the update. FINALLY she is doing some good. I know from experience the kids with cancer in the centers are pitiful.
You’ve got to be kidding. Carol, while I applaud the Foundations & hope they do fabulous, most of us know she’s in it for the notoriety.
Ok, so it’s for the kids. I believe that. But i also believe it’s not ONLY for the kids. I just can’t help believing that her participation in events like this is designed to erase the lingering image left behind by BB15. Enough “do-good” causes and fans will no longer think of her as one of the biggest mistakes in BB history. But i will say this – i don’t CARE if it’s to her benefit. Someone that needs help is getting it – and that’s all that matters. I’m not saying she’s heartless – obviously not. I’m just saying that i hope her dealings with this Foundation – and with the kids themselves – lead to an inspiring, lifelong commitment to doing for others on occasion rather than ego promotion. Sometimes we get into things for the intention of benefiting ourselves. But it leads to something more meaningful. She’s on the right track.
Hi Cat well said.
I totally agree with you Cat. I don’t totally trust her motive for all her charity work and I hat that I feel that way.
Mary, hello. Do not hate to feel that way. Amanda has painted her own picture of herself to everyone. A sleeze and a not so trusting person.
Thank you so much Carol, you have definitely made me feel better. I always just want to give people the benefit of the doubt and I should know better when it comes to her. Also, woops…I just noticed I spelled hate wrong.
I know how you feel. I feel like i’m jaded sometimes when it comes to what to expect from people. I’ve seen too many things, heard too many excuses and watched as power and money corrupted. So it’s within the realm of possibilities for someone to use a good cause to further their own agenda. People can change. They have and they do. I guess my post above is saying when faced with conditions that are extreme, unfair and life threatening (kids with cancer), people can get their priorities straight. Suddenly things that seemed important (like fame), are no longer at the top of the list of things that matter. I’m not saying she shouldn’t have fun with life. I’m just saying that most people that have achieved success in life are those that the spotlight has never shown upon.
I’m off my soapbox 🙂
All good Cat… Mary taking the new family member and a while to see the grandkids. You all have a super weekend. I took tomorrow off and the weather is suppose to be beautiful in the upper 70’s
Enjoy your day off Carol – you deserve it. Glad you’re going to have such beautiful weather, that definitely adds to the enjoyment. Sunny and warmer here – not as warm you’re getting but much better than we’ve been getting.
I know, and at my age with all that I have seen and gone through in my lifetime, you wouldn’t think I’d be so naïve. Who ever said “Live and Learn”? ha-ha.
As usual, Cat, you say what I’m thinking better than I could have said it!
I will add this: Sometimes – even when we regret our mistakes and ask for forgiveness (which, as far as I can tell has never happened with Amanda) – we still have to live with the consequences of our actions. Here’s an illustration: Say your leg was amputated as a direct result of something you did that was really stupid and irresponsible. You can regret your actions, ask God and your caregiver (mother, spouse) for forgiveness for being reckless and causing them problems as well as yourself. Your caregiver and God would forgive you for your stupidity, but you would still have to live with the long-term consequences of not having a leg. God isn’t gonna say “Oh, you’re sorry? Okay, then, here’s a replacement leg.”
Even if someone had publicly apologized for their behavior (which I haven’t heard from most of the biggest offenders from BB15), they still have to live with the fact that they made a$$es of themselves before millions of people. For that reason, forgive me if I assume the worst of Amanda Zuckerman’s motives (for the 10 minutes I spent reading this post and writing this response). Though, certainly, I am tickled if some deserving cause benefits despite the fact that Amanda may (in my opinion) still be a nasty human being.
Why should Amanda or anyone else have to apologize to me? Well, they don’t, of course. Not in today’s society. But I was always taught that asking for forgiveness should encompass the realm of those wronged. Meaning, if you lied to your husband, you apologize to him, NOT go on a national television show and apologize to the nation. But when you were vulgar and repulsive to millions in an audience of a people you now know you offended badly, I believe that audience deserves an apology.
But that’s old-fashioned me.
All you self righteous people. “She owes us an apology” oh she is cant be trusted RAISING MONEY FOR CANCER CHARITY FOR CHILDREN. All you here , Cat , Lilly , Carol. Shame on you. She has raised several thousand dollar for Britneys baby here and several others. Who are you to judge her motives ? Whar are YOU doing ? Amd for the record she has apologized over and over again but youpeople dont care. You will never accept so so all of this hate is on you. Shameful.
When & what did she apologize for? Shaming us is just as bad as shaming her. duh, LIKE THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BACK.
OMG She is never going away, is she? I am glad the charity willbe receiving help, but I will never believe her reasons were for any reason but her own self-promotion. She has became addicted to attention, good or bad, and any action to get her name out there, that is what she will do. I know I sound cynical, but thats how I see it.
Hi Barbara! Your thoughts and feelings are echoed by us all.
I can’t see anyone as egotistical as her going away soon She has this great need to be seen & heard. Speaking for myself, I’d respect her more if I never heard from her again (ha, ha).
The girl apologized, humbly I might add for several months not that those stalker haters will acknowledge. If you hate her so much while you languish in anonymity stalk someone else. May your hate die on the vine. You are to be pitied. I give Amanda nothing but props for moving on with her life and doing good for humanity.
I give points to Amanda for using her infamy to help others. My argument was that I don’t believe her actions can be totally attributed to selflessness. And her actions and attitude bear that out, IMO. If she apologized, it wasn’t widely publicized. Good for her. Still not overly impressed by her humility.
I never saw or heard an apology either. When, where, how was it made? I’m really interested to know.
Is this a joke ? She did only about 30+ interviews , podcasts, twitcams in all of which she apologized. Oh and on Twitter as well. She wrote on her website , blogs but oh you didnt see it ?? Yet you all see how bad she is. You only see what you want to see. Its ignorant and sad.
Nope, no joke, I never saw here apology. I’m surprised it wasn’t posted here, if it was I probably would have seen it, but living in Canada, I guess it wasn’t widely published/shown.
oops, spelling error, should be her not here
I think Benjamin Franklins quote perfectly says how i feel about any apology Amanda might make. “Never ruin an apology with an excuse”.
Ah, yes, a perfect quote indeed Cat! 🙂
OMG!
Whoops, wrong reply
OMG! She’s a real saint, ain’t she.
Oh, PLEASE, Amanda, never did anything HUMBLY. and if anything, she is stalking the fans of BB. HUMBLY…that is now my new favorite quote. Thank you.
Hey all. Glad Amanda is doing one good thing.
Now leaving her in the past where she belongs…..
Looking forward to double eviction tonight!!
Even more so the show after with Gary and Peter 🙂
They are very entertaining.
Right on JO1! I forgot it`s a double eviction night tonight. So looking forward to it.
I really enjoy Gary and Peter as well. I was just wondering if they would be back next year or if 2 people from this year will take their place. Ohhh no!!!
Amanda has shown her remorse and has asked for forgiveness yet some of her stalkers who are so self righteous continue to stalk a young woman who was on a freakin reality show that ended 7 months ago. You spew hateful and hurtful things at a young woman you don’t know hiding in your twitter anonymity. Who are you to judge a human being? She did say stupid, arrogant and hurtful things while locked up in the BB torture chamber nowhere nearly as horrible as other HG’s said. She Apologized many times..you self righteous bullies show no compassion. I feel so sorry for you that you have spent 7 months writing hateful and yes hurtful things, Relentlessly. In your unforgiving eyes she can do no right. No matter what she does like personally selling all her BB items and donating 100% of that towards baby Tilly. over 5,000 and you can confirm that with them. She kept not 1 CENT. Oh and of course you’ll say she didn’t. Of course. You mean and hateful bullies must have such unfulfilled lives to continually harass another human being who has apologized to every cast member and made her peace with all of them. Take your kangaroo court which no one really cares about and take that negative energy and try to forgive. Try to realize human being make mistakes. 7 million viewers 3x weekly Loved her and found her to be one of the most entertaining HG’s that ever appeared on the show. Only a small group of live feeders started the hate campaign which in of itself was a consummate BULLYING tactic. Can you really say this young woman did not learn from her mistakes? She apologized many, many times. I saw it in her live blogs but didnt take notes as to the exact time and date. I mean really?? She has a family, she has feelings she’s a human being. She has participated in many fundraising events in the months she has been out of the house. Please, please…everybody makes mistakes. Certainly all of you ladies who have made mean spirited comments this evening have the ability to understand people make terrible mistakes. Believe me she has learned from this experience. All I’m saying is to give her a chance to see she has changed from what I can see. I don’t go on twitter much but when I found this lovely article and read some of the mean spirited comments by just a few..I had to have my say. If this doesn’t get you to at least consider thinking about what your doing. You are in the minority. Amanda has a very strong fan base including many who have forgiven her as she apologized time after time. Have a good night and stay positive. Allow this young woman to move forward in her life and not be stalked by this handful of relentless bullies…languishing in anonymity (the ultimate mean girls recipe) . Go follow something that is relevant in the world today and put your energy towards the good of man. I hope you all take these comments into consideration.
You’re entitled to your opinion. As i am entitled to mine.
You wrote “7 million viewers 3 x weekly loved her and found her to be one of the most entertaining HGs to appear on the show”. I would agree with you if you had said that live feeders thought that. But the live feeds hide NOTHING. It was NOT a small group of live feeders that started a hate campaign. If you read ANY BB fan site you will realize the ENORMOUS amount of fans that disliked her. It’s only the people that follow the CBS edited show that are not privy to her antics that love her. Funny how CBS had to put a disclaimer at the beginning of the show because they did not want to be associated with Amandas (and Aaryns) views. Nor would she have been called to the DR and told to tone it down if she had been playing the game without personal attacks (she verified this on the live feeds). Rarely does BB do this unless it’s out of control. If you bothered to read my post above, i said people CAN and DO change. That includes Amanda. I never said she owed me (or anyone else an apology). What i DID say is she shouldn’t make excuses for her actions in the BB house. Plenty of people have played the game without resorting to her strategy. But you can’t fool the live feeders into believing her tactics were acceptable.
Well said Cat.
Yes, indeed, well said Cat!
Loved it Cat thanks for the post…AMEN
As one who resides here in “anonymity”, I am trying to understand how our disapproval of Amanda’s bullying behavior, makes us the bully. Exactly what behavior of Amanda did you find so admirable? I think what we have here is maybe Amanda herself. On that note, good night all and have a good weekend.
Bullying behaviour ? I have experienced bullying and the ONLY time there was bullying in BB15 was with Elissa and even that was game related. It was inside a GAME not real life. People always forget that BB is not real life.
And voting people out , lying , backstabbing , forming alliances is what BB is all about.
Christine, what you say is true. You forgot to mention the racist, homophobic remarks. As far as I’m concerned she crossed the line w/ her bullying tactics You forgot to mention she bullied her own alliances (If you talk to Elissa, you’re going home next). Watching her lie in bed & barking out orders didn’t cut it w/ me. Neither did running around the house in her used panties (yuck). The one thing that really blew my mind was when she called Elissa trash while dressed as a whore.
Oh, and BB is real life.There’s no animation. When someone goes on BB, they should know they’re going to be judged by their behavior. We all know & accept that you can’t win w/o scheming, lying, & backstabbing. But it can be done w/ respect & w/o malice towards the others. Of all the contestants BB has had, there have been many who we like & respect. But as in any group in real life, there are bad apples. Someone has to be, it’s just the law of averages. And in BB history, she IS the bad apple.
garyr, Oh I remember that day like it was yesterday, and it blew my mind as well, but you know the saying. “You are what you wear,” enough said.
So i suppose calling Elissa a gold digger and saying she married her husband for money was game related? Or calling her husband an ugly old man? HE did not sign up for abuse. Therefore those statements had NOTHING to do with the game.
Yet, just another good point.
Christine, There is a reason why BB is called a reality show. Think about it.
As expected.
Where in your list of “Voting people out, lying, backstabbing, forming alliances” does blatant racist behavior enter?
blatant racist ? Amanda is not a racist , she made crude jokes for which she apologized but you would never accept that because you dont like her. Keep holding on to your hate and grudges , its been over for so long and STILL you hold on and cant forgive.
Crude jokes hurt.
Christine, you must be her mother. Because if you where on the other side of the fence looking in you would feel the same as every other poster here. Crude jokes are hurting and being a bully as well. Amanda painted her own picture of who she is with the actions of her own.
OMG! Crude jokes ARE racist.
Good Morning All! Does anyone know who won HOH last night?
Never mind, Jon won HOH.
Thank you Cat and Gary for bringing back rational thought.
Thank you Cat and Gary for bringing back rational thought. Bracing for BB16. Can’t wait.
Maybe if she had found a cute for cancer that would be good enough?..Truth is no one really knows whether the event is for her own self promotion or just to help a great cause. The point is it raises money for cancer stricken children and you can’t really knock that despite any intention behind it. Need I say it again it’s raising money for children with cancer!!! The time people spend debating whether the intention is good could really be spent donating to the cause. People who don’t like Amanda automatically try and find fault in what she does but the truth is only she knows why she’s doing the event. I made my donation to the cause hopefully others will as well.
Madison, you make good points here & I hope she can contribute. I make contributions to the Mystic Force Foundation as well as 4 other charities & still have time to post onto this site, & still have time to debate her intentions which are always under my microscope because of her actions,not anyone elses. You’re missing the big picture here. While we applaud the foundations, we’ve been talking about amanda, not the foundations. They are two different conversations that I can’t even equate w/ each other. Seeing as you contribute, you must have received flyers that state there are models, athletes, & celebrities that can be bid upon for a dream date. But the funny thing is that amanda is the only name I’ve seen or heard. Do you really believe the foundations contacted her as a celebrity? I think it was vice versa. Most people who contribute are anonymous or let their actions speak for themselves & are fulfilled in that manner, but not amanda, because she has that great need to be seen & heard. When it comes to her, every thing has to be done w/ fanfare & frankly, people are sick & tired of hearing about her. Madison, I’m glad your heart is in the right place & you come across as a nice, caring person, but I believe amanda is disingenuous & using this event to be about amanda. If you want to talk about the foundations, fine, but amanda thinks too much of herself for me to associate her to something good w/o reservations. A dream date w/ amanda? please! Go Mystic Force Foundation. go away amanda! Do something w/o fanfare for a change.
Well said garyr and I totally agree with you. We are having a fundraiser here today for cancer where the volunteers are getting their heads shaved. A fun, good time, for a wonderful cause.
Very good Mary. Love it! LOL
BBC update: Jon is HOH. Sabrina and Rochelle on the block. They’re going back and forth as to who to evict. But i think Rochelle is a better choice. She’s better at comps than Sabrina. I’m assuming whoever is evicted goes to jury. But i sure wouldn’t want to be the second juror in the jury house with Sabrina. Lol…it might be the first self evict from the jury house!!
Thanks Cat! I would love to see Sabrina gone but you make a good point, Rochelle is definitely better at comps. You are so funny Cat, no way in h— would I want to be in the Jury House with Sabrina ha-ha it could, very well indeed, be the first self evict from the jury house ha-ha!!! You always put a smile on my face lady 🙂
That is good stuff Cat! Didn’t think of it that way…Rochelle would be the wise choice if they are basing it on comp strength.
Happy to report that our bus trip raised over $2K for the American Cancer Society! It was a great time and goes to a great cause! Thank you all for wishing our team well 🙂 You guys are the best. Hmmmmm Maybe I should try to raise $$$ by auctioning a date with myself…..LOL Just kidding, wouldn’t want ruffle any feathers
Congratulations JO1!
Ditto here! JO1, I’d buy a date W/ someone like you.
Just never know where you’ll meet someone eh? Go for it JO1 🙂
garyr, That would be money well spent.
Well done JO1!!! I suspect a date with you would be like winning the million dollar lottery 🙂
JO1, Well done and Congratulations!!!
J01 thank you for doing this for cancer. We do allot of stuff like that here at the local cancer center, one of the top centers in the US. Here is our link, thank you all.

Yeah Cat that is true, I am a spitfire with a huge heart! :-)You all are great.
GM all BB Buddies. Here we go again with another new week. Here i9s your morning funny, have a great day.
an you give me a push?
A man is in bed with his wife when there is a rat-a-tat-tat on the door.
He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it’s half past three in the morning.
“I’m not getting out of bed at this time,” he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a
louder knock follows.
“Aren’t you going to answer that?” says his wife.
So he drags himself out of bed and goes downstairs. He opens the door and
there is man standing at the door. It didn’t take the homeowner long to
realize the man was drunk.
“Hi there,” slurs the stranger. “Can you give me a push??”
“No, get lost. It’s half past three. I was in bed,” says the man and slams the
door. He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she
says, “Dave, that wasn’t very nice of you.
Remember that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick
the kids up from the baby sitter and you had to knock on that man’s house
to get us started again? What would have happened if he’d told us to get
lost??”
“But the guy was drunk,” says the husband.
“It doesn’t matter,” says the wife. “He needs our help and it would be the
right thing to help him.” So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed
and goes downstairs.
He opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he
shouts, “Hey, do you still want a push??”
And he hears a voice cry out, “Yeah, please.”
So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts, “Where are you?”
And the stranger replies, “I’m over here, on your swing.”
Hello BB buddies. Last night on the amazing race, Rachelle and Brandon done well. I do not care for them but they have to be the luckiest couple out there,. Have a great day all.
Hi Carol! Hope you had a great long weekend. I did watch The Amazing Race – Brandon and Rachelle were awesome last night. I’m not minding them at all – such a huge change in attitude since their BB days. I really like Dave and Connor (Father and Son) and I think it would be great if they wan.
oops, typo – should be won, not wan.
GM Mary me too. I love Dave and Connor. I hope that they can win. The long weekend was nice, the little guy traveled well. It was a tiresome trip but we seen allot of folks we had not seen in a while. This weekend we will have a house full. Not bed left unempty. Ricks son and his kids, his half brother, and niece will all be here. Fun but I am ready for a real vacation with no folks I know. LOL Have a good day Mary, tonight is the voice.
Gee, all the beds are taken? And I was going to come for a visit hahaha! I feel for you Carol; you definitely a nice vacation.
And I am so ready for a vacation. I think we will take a week and go to Savannah, Ga sometime within the next month. I need it.
I hope you do – everyone deserves and needs time away from it all and everyone. Have a great day 🙂
Yep, enjoy TAR last night. I’m in the rare position with a reality show to actually like ALL the remaining competitors and don’t know who to root against!! I didn’t want any of them to leave last night! I do have to say that Brenchel have shown themselves to be much more mature this time – even when things aren’t going well. Kudos to them.
Here’s a thought: Maybe Amanda and The Rat can go on TAR and show us all what incredible human beings they are and how mistaken we all are about them!! NOT! (Not only do I believe they would show the true colors I believe they are, but it would ruin the show for me … except it WOULD give me a team to root against!!!)
Have a happy Monday everyone. And try not to stress about those taxes due tomorrow (like me)!
HAHAH good one Lilly. GM hope you have a great day!
Hi Lilly! I agree, every team on The Amazing Race is terrific, but when I see a Father and Son doing something together like this, my heart just goes out to them. They are my number one pick but I wouldn’t be disappointed with any of them winning, I’d be very happy for them. Have a great day!
I have to admit each season I look for the parent-child combos that I can root for – unless or until they prove themselves to be unworthy of admiration! I was pulling for Margie and Luke until they left. That woman deserved sainthood having the patience she had when Luke was struggling with frustration! (But kudos to him for facing so many unknowns in TAR as a deaf person.)
I couldn’t agree with you more Lilly – they were wonderful together.
I loved them as well. She is an AWESOME mom, with allot of Patience. Bless her.
LOL I got ya Mary. I knew it was won. Have a super day. The boss is out today, tomorrow and will be in late Wednesday, fun fun fun…..
Good morning everyone. Have a great day here is your morning funny.
Nickels and Dimes
Previous Next
Little Johnny is always being teased by the other neighborhood boys for being stupid. Their favorite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime — Little Johnny always takes the nickel.
One day, after Johnny takes the nickel, a neighbor takes him aside and says, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don’t you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel’s bigger?”
Johnny grins and says, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it, and so far I’ve made $20!”
A little kid gets on a city bus, sits right behind the driver, and starts talking loudly, “If my dad was a bull and my mom a cow, I’d be a little bull.”
The driver gets annoyed as the kids continues to yammer on. “If my dad was an rooster and my mom a hen, I would be a little chick.”
The kid goes on and on with all the animals he knows, when finally, the bus driver yells, “What if your dad was a bum and your mom was a drunk?”
The kid smiles and says, “I’d be a bus driver.”
Sorry you all haven’t heard from me lately. I’ve been unbelievably busy lately. I finally have a day to myself. Gonna put out the trash (not amanda), start a fire, change the dogs water, & go back to bed.
GM Gary, fire? How cold is it where you are we are already at 60 here in SC and not even close to noon. We will hit 85 today. Always nice to hear from you.
32 degrees this morning. 45 today w/ strong winds. Central Maine. Wouldn’t mind being in SC. Going back to sleep. 1st day from being on the road or commitments for about 10 days. Just plain beat.
WOW Gary I would hate that kind of weather. Night Night my friend
Carol, sad to say, but these are avg. temps up here. Would definitely move away if I didn’t have family here. Mom & Dad & 1 sister live two miles from me. A brother within 60 miles, & a brother & sister down state. Maine does have it’s advantages though, so we enjoy those. Can’t help but to be happy for you right now though.
I remember those days Gary. When I was a kid I lived in Sharon, CT. It was always cold then we moved to Florida. What a shock, then I wanted the seasons back but not so cold so we picked SC we do have family here.
Here is your morning funny. Happy Monday all, have a good day.
Nuns & Dogs
Two Irish nuns had just arrived in USA, And one says to the other, “I hear that the people in This country actually eat dogs.”
“Odd,” her companion replies, “but if we shall Live in America , we might as well do as the Americans do.”
As they sit, they hear a push cart vendor yelling, “Hot Dogs, get your dogs here,” and they both
Walk towards the hot dog cart.
“Two dogs, please!,” says one. The vendor is very Pleased to oblige, wraps both hot dogs in foil and Hands them over. Excited, the nuns hurry to a bench And begin to unwrap their ‘dogs.’
The mother superior is first to open hers.
She begins to blush, and then, after staring At it for a moment, leans to the other nun and in A soft brogue whispers: “What part of the dog did you get?
