Brad and Angelina’s Tiara Sandwich
Brad Pitt and expectant mommy Angelina Jolie are all smiles while posing with tiara-wearing resident Dee Carla Rogers, 9, in the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans, Louisiana on Sunday.
Brad, 44, has been busy working with his “Make It Right 9″ Foundation and Bill Clinton’s global initiative to aid Huricane Katrina victims.
Earlier in the day, Angie, 32, took the kids to the corner store for snacks.

Hey justjazz. :D
Thank you. It’s great to see you here too. Yes I was here yesterday but the site was down for about an hour and a half.
Good to hear that Vick. I am doing okay. A bit tired as i am on call for VOV-victim’s of Violence as an advocate of murdered children. An 18 yr old girl was killed 2mos ago and the family are having a difficult time with the court system. Not understanding pleas to manslaughter when in reality their daughter was not fighting back with athe man who took her life.
I have a private line for that and was on the phone for a long time after 3 am. The poor mother was beside herself. My heart could feel alll she was going thru so hopefully some of what i could tell her helped. She has my # to call me anytime in the evenings.
That was really sad to hear about the boy who drowned.The parents must be a mess. God Bless.
Hi Tijen , How are you ? Hope you are doing well.
Hey anoble ,lol i see you are back and forth. Smart move lol

have a good day friends.

It had to be the worst day of my life -Thank God we live in a small town. I was carrying in grocery and he told me he was going next door (which was ok) that child wasn’t home so he decided to take a trip to another house (2 streets over) we didn’t know those people well just from daycare - the mom wasn’t my favorite, not very responsible. (she never even questioned him when he showed up to play, didn’t ask if his mom knew where he was at or anything) It was a awful day - good lesson learned for both of us, to this day 10 years later he always makes sure I know where he is and what he’s doing.

oh man, talk about a stressful job. My heart goes out to you. I truly admire people like you. :)
Hello justjazz! Do you live in NYC?
Vicki- Yes, the weather is pretty moderate. It stays in the40’s through winter. Now it is in the 50’s. No extremes. changes.Summers are absolutely beautiful. Little or no humidity. But November through April is mostly cloudy. We miss the sun. It is a beautiful state though. Very green with mountains, ocean, waterfalls, forests. Just not much sunshine.
wow justjazz, that sounds very sad and very taxing yet also very rewarding to know you are helping someone in probably the worst time in their lives. i am so not surprised to find out you do things like that, your compassion for others shows. God bless you for what must be a very difficult thing to do. i hope you get to catch up on your rest.

Hello back at ya :D
I thought maybe Spring was coming but the rain today has turned kinda snowy, you know that in-between stuff - not quite rain or snow, I am so tired of both. Instead of being butt deep in snow now we are butt deep in mud :D
I agree with you - I hope the crazies stay over there!
anoble, i bet you were terrified. it is good he lets you know where he is now. no matter how old they get, it never hurts to let somebody know where you are. = )
tijen, that sounds lovely. = )
vicki, I was having a hard time deciding whether to laugh, cry, hug him or kick his behind :D
IMHO I think it is a little hypercritical to criticize JJ for posting a tab cover on the thread. Especially when every Wednesday there is a discussion about what is on the various tab covers. So instead of going to the various tab sites JJ brought this one here. Let him get the hits instead of the tabs. Makes sense to me. JMO. Peace
Anoble hon,It’s not a job. I volenteer my services back to vov b/c without them i don’t know if i would have pulled thru my own son’s murder. it was yrs ago but they are wonderful people and i am better at this then doing the groups like we use to do.
My son was 19 /just got married and his young wife was the same age. She had his baby 2 weeks after his death so we have a special piece of my son left behind who is loved like none other.
she is beautiful and looks justlike him. We are very close except she lives 7 hrs away so don’t see her weekly but quite often.
My son helped some old friends move into a rental and met somebody he had never met before.
Little did he know the man was a phycopath and he was killed very brutally with a knife and too the man had black belt in kawarte.
I like any other mother always said if i ever lost one of my children i would not make it. So am no different. It was the peoplefrom VOV who led the way for me to get where i am.
Terrible thing to say but my.family’s only salvation was when the police called me to tell me the man died a few yrs later.
Weird feeling to be glad about another’s death.
It is amzing how strong our minds are and how much we can take when we think we can’t..
I have two daughters and i am grateful for them and learned all over again to be grateful for the small things in order to get on with my life. I owe vov for my sanity.
So that’s why i am an advocate. You have to have been there to be able to talk/help to new people who are suffering thru the same /They know it and so do i.
So anyway here i am and no i would not do it as a job if i didn’t know what i know today .
you ladies know what i mean eh.
I am still thinking about that little boy that drowned and how helpless those people (parenst) must feel today . I always say thank God for shock. They have vov not only for for homicide victims so am hoping somebody from the police station gave the family a card for help.
Sorry i am going to end up with a novel..
I come here to have fun and enjoy angie Brad and te kids just like you so have come a long way. I don’t have a problem talking about my life/my son if it helps other’s or if people ask. . most times people don’t know what to say. I understand that too.
anyway that’s my story and here we are.
Take care..

It is all that much more admirable that it is not a job. You are truly an amazing person. I am so very sorry for your loss. I feel silly talking about my son getting “lost” earlier, at least I got him back. I am so very glad for you to have your granbaby.
justjazz, i am so sorry for your loss of your precious son. you are honoring him with the work you do for others. he would be so proud of you. you are an incredible person and i know he must have been as well. i am glad your daughters have helped you get through. i agree coming here is a good pass time. God bless you.
justjazz-
So sorry to read about your loss. I admire what you’re doing to help others. Everything in this life is temporary. Nothing is for certain. You know you will be reunited with your son eventually in all the world of God.
justjazz. i am so glad you have your precious granddaughter. i bet she thinks you are awesome. a beautiful bit of your son. = )
OT
just read this on CNN
8 co-workers win lottery, will keep jobs
these 8 women will end up with about 12 million apiece - I’m sorry but if I instantly got 12 million I would put in my 2 second notice at work :D
Anoble hon,Don’t feel silly your scare was real. Nobodies pain is less . .IEven though my son is gone when uiread your post i thought about my daughter doing something similar when she was 7 and knew how frightning that feeling is. I could feel it for you so i could relate.
We don’t know and things happen in the blink of an eye.
My poor kids(adults) after my son’s death were so over protected i had to get help with overdoing it .
Time is the only answer to a mother’s pain after thier child’s death. It never goes away but we learn to deal. We all learn to live our lives without them. The days that are difficult are the anniversaies and that’s no different then the annivesay of anyone’s loss.
I found it odd and sometimes hurtful that very good friends didn’t know how to talk to me at first. That’s why i had to turn to vov.
I learned from them it was too overwhelming and i hope i didn’t do that to anybody here. I am okay or i would not be able to enjoy being a fan of the JP’s or have the fun i do now with my grandchildren and my daughters..live my life like everyone else.
Hey girl’s i just wish i could type faster to keep up with you all.
Vick thank you . I find you to be the same .A very kind loving heart even when you are going thru your own pain during the day. You know we all care and meny prayers are always being said for your dad. Prayer in numbers means so much. I believe God hears us.
Tijen .No i am from Canada. I live about 20 mins away from Niagara Falls by car. Our weather is still crappy but by april the tulips will be out. Every may we open our pool so can’t wait for the nice weather.
Would love to live in Texas or some place where it’s warm all the time.
Hiya Dina. I guess i just don’t like tabs. We all know Angie and Brad didn’t talk to Out of Touch and jmo but Jared would get his hits in this thread the same as before.
Maybe i got to use to the old Jared who would nver put a tab thread up and too we do get more trolls who just seem to enjoy being cruel. PPl will do what they want so wouldn’t doubt they will be back and forth when they can’t be bothered fighting with the trolls .
It’s just another week at JJ’s :)

Students were also invited to take part in the groundbreaking for Pitt’s Make it Right project, which will construct 150 sustainable and affordable homes in the Lower 9th Ward by using green design features.
“We were not there for an assignment,” Griffin said. “We were there to help, and it turned into the most amazing experience.”
He said spending Sunday in the Lower 9th Ward - one of the areas in New Orleans most devastated by Hurricane Katrina - had the greatest impact.
On the bus ride to the Lower 9th Ward, Griffin said he saw a shuttered two-story elementary school with still-visible water lines, houses with no roofs, and people living in trailers.
“The closer we got to the 9th Ward, the worse it got,” he said.
Once at the Lower 9th Ward, Griffin and the other students picked up tools and started getting the grounds ready for construction.
As the the students worked, Pitt and Clinton came

by, shook their hands and spoke to them.
“They came around and thanked us,” Griffin said. “We really got the impression that they were both good, generous and compassionate people.
“There were no politics whatsoever.”

I am sorry for your lost. Your story is very touching and your strength is admirable. I wish you all the best.
just jazz
thank you - you are a kind hearted person. I understand the over protection. My son and daughter had to think I was a little crazed for a while after my son’s little road trip. I am very glad that you have found a purpose to help with your grief.
oh justjazz and anoble.i love you ladies.
just jazz
ITA - jj gets the hits from this thread as well as the other and I would rather stay on a positive non-tab thread. The haters seem to be over-running that one.
Hey, hey anustin - sending love right back at ya :D :D
Thank Vick, Anoble, Tijen and bdj, You all are very kind. I don’t even know how that came out as i usually don’t bother saying anyting especially here on an entertainemt bd.
I hope it’s okay and you know i am okay ..alright:).
You really can tell the people with big hearts in this forum.So easy to read and all of you have shown that in your replies to me.
Hugs xo

I think that’s why we are all together. These people (trolls /haters)who write a post and say “I hate Angelina and i wish she would die. I often wonder if they know what hate really means? I mean genuine hate. Words of hate come easy but honestly what do you ladies think? Do you think they know what hate is when they say it?
That baffels me.. Are they just words?
I hated the man who took my child’slife and that was the first time i felt genuine hate in my life . I don’t know when i see the ugly words or death wishs or hateful stuff like shiloh is ill with down’s syndrome i wonder if they are just words. and nothing else.??
????????
