Brad & Angelina Continue New Orleans Housing Efforts

Hiya Gerodena— well your video is wonderful and I posted it at JJB’s as well. We also have something else in common, my Dad is from the Black Sea coast from the city called Rize. And I go back to Turkey every summer. Maybe one day you can come and visit me ;-)

Here is the link to your beautiful video again….

Doesn’t Maddox have school to go to?
Is this just a weekend trip?
*********************************

They do have a home in New Orleans, and if this is an extended stay, Maddox’s school has a branch in New Orleans so he can keep up with all his school work and he won’t miss out on anything.

Thanks for the correction, I read it was 3rd on another site

Hey Guli, way to go from your team Ohio State, I was away from the weekend and I just read the AP Poll and Ohio State is No. 1 and LSU No. 2 and they could play for the national championship, I bet you are on cloud 9 :)

Wow, you people are brutal. I just have an opinion based on working in a school, and seeing how tough it is for kids who move around a lot. That goes for military kids too. It’s just the facts. Thier kids are still very young. But it WILL be more difficult as they get older and need to have peers and friends to depend on. That being said, I wish them well, cause it won’t be easy.

And sorry, it’s Boston……

So now the opionion is not as a mom but as someone that works in school and know kids that move around…?

Okay.

I don’t work in a school, but i went to a school where some of my friends were children of ambassadors, and they had no problem on travelling… On the contrary, the love it. An this were kids on their 15, 16 years.

Nice pictures. They look so real.

I’m watching the second Lara Croft film. I must say that Angelina is stunning to look at in this film. Wow.

Here’s a little info from wikipedia regarding Lara Croft Tom Raider:

Box office
Tomb Raider delivered the largest non-holiday weekend of the year, opening at number one with a towering $47.7M, giving the studio its second-biggest debut ever. It was shown in 3,308 theaters with a gross of $14,430 each. The film also has the largest opening ever for a movie headlined by a woman, surpassing the $40.1M debut of Charlie’s Angels

I think this still stands because I’m not sure if Amy Adams got the top billing for Enchanted (Is it her movie or Patrick Dempsy guy). Even if she got the top billing, the film opened on a holiday 4 day weekend (Thanksgiving). So it doesn’t count. Angelina has had 5 major box office success.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You bet you I am on cloud nine,and everyone who is a Buckeye fan is on cloud nine as well. My worst fear was OSU plays Missouri aka Brad’s old school I really would have been squirming cheering for my Buckeyes! ROTFLMAO! Now I can go hog wild crazy screaming for the national champ game! They are going to announce who we will play in an hour!
How have you been lady? You don’t post much lately. Please keep in touch dear old cyber-friend :-)

You spit BILE and malicious judgment on the Jolie-Pitts and you have the nerve to call the people of here brutal??
**********************************************

Give her a break, Seb. She wasn’t being malicious or hypocritical. Just because someone expresses a different opinion doesn’t make them malicious or a hypocrite. Just explain the fast calmly — the kids are with their parents, they aren’t being dumped on nannies, etc. — and let it go at that.

Now, this go soc person goes from, just an opinion of a mother of 3 and when she gets thwanked, decides to up her ante and now she works with kids. LOL. Sure you do.

And you worry about your own. Sounds like they’re the ones that need it.

Oops, go sox person.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I didn’t say it wasn’t possible. I said that I don’t believe you. When you got smacked around, then you decide to try and make yourself sound like an authority on kids by saying you work with them. When you posted your first warm and fuzzy post it was just as a mother.

I think that you’re full of it.

Re: go sox @ 12/02/2007 at 6:51 pm #134

I think you are misinterpreting posters as “being brutal”…most of the posters here are very finicky regarding posters who state an “opinion” as if it were “fact”. Your opinion is based on limited observations from your experiences and environment, which does not make it absolute “fact” for every family, for every child.
Either qualify “your facts” or expect to be put on the line by some very savvy posters.

I personally know of a family of five children who range in age from 10 to 18 and they have always moved around internationally from Uganda to Cambodia to Vietnam and more for the last eighteen years. Their father works for the U.N. World Food Bank and their mother is a MD who starts and works AID clinics wherever the father ends up. U.N. BTW has a policy that their management employees are not allowed to stay in one place for more than a few years.
These children have managed to turn around what you think is a negative…they know more about the world we live in than most provincial adult Americans and they have friends all over the world. They are well rounded in sports, literature, and world politics and very polite and astute. Don’t be so narrow-minded and assume the worse.
