stardust,
I knew it was Ben because of huffpo and the show confirmed his departure last month. Still sad though. Speaking of huffpo why did they post Scarbrough video on there? lol I know it’s not the first time but I try to avoid him at all costs.
tabitha thank you for the link

read my fav part in the interview and I think its just so sweet. :)
Can you give an example of how different you are?
He’s very methodical and takes time with things. I’m very impulsive like on a decision we made yesterday. But (when we travel), he packs at the last minute while I pack three days ahead with all the kids’ stuff and five different things. I like to organize each moment of our travel but he likes to be more (spontaneous). But we appreciate each other. We need it. I need to be not so crazy about things.
Thank You Grandma, reading your story bought back memories of my grandma.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!
Thanks Tabitha!
Grandma you’re so right about the D.C. I really hope they move here.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THAT. I can’t stop smiling. Not even Danny MADMANduci’s rant can take this away. It’s like when you eat something really nasty….then wash it down with something sweet, you barely remember the nastiness.
Well, Bamzs Fans, that’s it…..that is all the confirmation you need that AJ and BP are liked and respected where it really matters.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Immediately I read that, all the anger at Bonaduce’s comments just went away. I now have a smile plastered on my face like an idiot.

Very interesting posts. See, what I don’t get is how a mother, who abandons her child, still has rights. Maybe I don’t understand the laws behind it because I am thinking it shouldn’t even be an issue. You abandon your child….you’ve lost all right to call yourself their mother.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Named Family of the Year - Do We Really Want Them to Marry?
The Brangelina clan has been called People Magazine’s “Family of the Year.” Congratulations!
I give Angelina Jolie credit for shining a light and showing the world a true sense of interfaith, intercultural acceptance and unity. She’s not only made it popular to adopt children from other countries who truly need love and family … she’s achieved the status of matriarch of the poster family for the new, multicultural, blended family.
She is not as much fun in interviews anymore because journalists like Diane Sawyer probe her about her marriage plans, or lackthereof, and she has to spend most of her time sitting there and denying them.
Back in the day, Angie gave spunky, spicey, ever-so-natural and revealing interviews, especially when discussing her sex life. I loved her raw admissions about how she handled her dating life. But as well all know, we all mellow out when we settle into a good realtionship.
If you recall, she was a single mom who adopted a little boy from Cambodia. And then a little girl from Africa. She was possibly secretly seeing Brad Pitt when she went to get baby number 2. She added one, tall, hunky, already-married movie star to the mix. He got a divorce, she got pregnant, and they had one “baby of their own” to seal the deal of family life. They remain unmarried. And sort of homeless, trotting around the globe, but they seem secure and the kids seem happy.
Just want to point out … These days, many families are formulated on the bond between people who did not start as blood relatives and who hail from different cultures. I see it all the time in my wedding ministry, when people marry, and blend in their kids, their relatives, and their extended family members.
Overall, its very encouraging to see how they created their unique family. They have broken through many taboos, and have been an example of how love can transcend race, culture and religion.
They are also modeling love and family unity without marriage, and the ability to raise children in a loving environment without having to have a wedding. Even though I am all for marriage, for the right couples, I don’t think it is necessary for everyone.
In there case it works and might be even better.
They have money, fame, their own real estate, production companies, access to the world, and legal custody of their adopted kids, so they really do not need to get married.
Their kids are loved, and taken care of financially and they can afford plenty of childcare so that when the babies are screaming and kids are fighting, they have a little space to walk out of the room and let a child care helper step in. We all need time out from caring for kids, especially more than one, so they are covered on that front. Having help with the children, and a chance for some alone time, will help them keep their sanity and their sex life. They are pretty much living like an old married couple with kids, so a ceremony and legal documents is not what will hold them together or make their life better … unless one of them is a secret commitment phobic and is avoiding marriage (hmmm…). In that case, legal marriage might someday be the next step toward a more powerful commitment.
At the moment, they have the financial security to create the family life they choose and if they inspire a few civilians along the way, that’s a good thing!
Amaya - That’s where I read about it too but I couldn’t remember the person’s name. That’s sad. I don’t remember Scarbrough video …that’s probably because I can’t stop noticing how many times huffpo mentions Borat ..LOL.
I’ll be back later. Have fun =)
Don’t forget that this bonaduchebag showed his son how to photocopy his person. And no, I don’t watch his reality show, I just happened to see this segment from that E soup(?) show. Damn people should mind their own business and leave this beautiful Jolie-Pitt family alone.
Angelina says…
“The low or scarier point was when Zahara got sick. Her surviving that was a high point. ”
This makes me decide that here is when the decision to get on with life as a family began. They moved in with Brad right after this if I remember and it’s been them all together since. So beautiful.

the american adoption process is very interesting, especially when it concerns infants. it’s a system that is very protective of the birth parents. they are active in selecting the adoptive parents and they have the right to choose how “open” the adoption will be. also, most birth mothers make the decision for adoption while they’re still pregnant and can change their minds until placement. as for those who abandon their children after they’re born, they can still show up and sue for custody.
Briseis, I have never really gone away. It was the politics that ruined my enthusiam in posting. I lurk everyday, the same as always. I miss those days when everybody was here too. There are newbies galore and the haters have not subsided but there are still posts that are so nice and funny at times.
JJ’s site will always be the place to go to for BAMZS news and info. Nothing can compare.
Di ba pinay ka rin? Ang dami natin dito…hindi puwedeng basta iwanan kayo.

Wow what a great article! Where is this from? never read such an intelligent and sensible article. :lol:
oh nvm, Kat.. I see now thanks!
the real tita:
I’m glad that you had not gone away. I usually just lurk too, except when I feel strongly about some stuff, or when a particular hater gets obnoxious.
Yeah, Pinay din ako … marami na talaga tayo, ewan ko kung gaano karami, si Char (Missouri Fan) ang magaling ang memory kung ilan na ang mga Pinoy dito.
Maligayang Pasko at Masaganang Bagong Taon sa iyo at sa iyong pamilya!

ITA. They have alot of nerve to talk about anyone. All three are totally disgusting.
Douglas and Trump had both better keep some money (you know what I mean) and Bonaduce looks and acts like a crazed drug addict.
From interview
As I’m looking at you from the side, you and Brad could be brother and sister.
Well, thank God we’re not (laughter).
Even in your voice and the way you respond to questions.
Oh, no. Really?
Do you think your relationship is based on the fact that you are alike?
You know, it’s funny. When we first came together, everybody commented on how different we were. So now it’s funny to hear somebody comment on how similar we are. Oh my God, I think you’ve scared me into thinking we’re starting to be that couple that morphs (starts looking like each other). We are very different in many ways — certainly in the way he is at home and the way I am at home. But we balance each other quite well.
Can you give an example of how different you are?
He’s very methodical and takes time with things. I’m very impulsive like on a decision we made yesterday. But (when we travel), he packs at the last minute while I pack three days ahead with all the kids’ stuff and five different things. I like to organize each moment of our travel but he likes to be more (spontaneous). But we appreciate each other. We need it. I need to be not so crazy about things.”
+++++++
I have said to others that they look alike to me. Maybe it’s why Shi got all the good parts :). They really favor physically I think, and on the others stuff, its that the differences compliment each other. I bet they have a very comfortable, fun and easy communication together, and can be quiet without a word and not feel akward. I love them.
BONADUCE: I don`t remember Britney Spears with Billy Bob Thorton`s blood. If I got Billy Bob Thorton`s blood anywhere near me, I would go to the emergency room and call the hazmat team.
——————————————-
…oh and one more thing. Though I personally didn’t like the pairing of Billy Bob with Angelina, I have nothing against Billy Bob personally….I actually like him, he’s funny and a pretty brilliant actor, artist and writer - and where some pieces of ol’ 1970’s sit-com trash like Bonaduce get off essentially trying to make a leper out of BBT, I have no idea.
BBT is a college educated Oscar winning screenwriter and Oscar nominated Actor (2 times), his Dad was a history teacher, and his mother was an English major. He’s lived a full life, and sure, he’s been married several times, but that’s as critical as any one should be getting with regards to him. His ‘name’ reflecting the ol’ southern tradition of combining two first names, seems to be where some of these narrow minded bigoted a-holes like Bonaduce get off trying to make a ‘hillbilly’ joke of his heritage and background.
The truth of the matter is, just like his fellow Arkansas citizenry, Bill Clinton, James Carville, Mary Steenburgen, Harry & Linda Thomason (producers, staunch democrats/Clinton supporters), he’s an extremely literate, intelligent and socially conscious man which is reflected in his work..whether it’s Monster’s Ball, or Slingblade, or One False Move — these films attack prejudice, and bigotry and deal with race head on. He’s had two black women sing his praises, one who married him (Cynda Williams, actress and his co-star in One False Move), and one who credits him with her winning the Oscar (Halle Berry:”I wouldn’t have been standing there had it not been for him.”) and says he’s one sexy mf, coincidentally lol.
So, pre AJ, I was a BBT fan - I only got creeped out because of the age factor w/ them and their demonstrativeness (which was a cry for something on AJ’s part - she admits she was ‘lost’ and I agree - lol) - and simply, I really thought they were not for each other - this has been proven, and thank goodness it was proven quickly, so neither of them wasted any more time with each other. But they’ve remained friends and that’s wonderful
…but aside from that, BBT is cool. So I get offended when pieces of sh* like this Bonaduce piece of TV cheese deigns to attack his betters.
