         <title>Model Mind Games</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>First off, congrats to the boss, Howie Mandel, on his Emmy Nomination.  I don't doubt he's gonna bring it home. And Howie, if you want someone to go with you to accept the award, so you don't have to touch it, I'll make room in my free schedule. I'll dress in a tux, top hat, and wear white gloves, so not to get fingerprints/germs on it. Let me know.</p>

<p>So apparently, I've got a model stalker who is watching and keeping tabs on me, so now I've gotta play detective and find out who this unidentified model is. It's obviously someone that hasn't been in a video (or not enough) I feel like Batman since you gave me a riddle (*side note, I can't wait to see Dark Knight tomorrow, more on that later) This riddle doesn't really help me. I don't think I've talked about Forrest Gump with any of you girls. And I know I'M funny, but which one of you thinks YOU'RE funny. You spelled all your words right, so I think I can rule out a couple of you. Anyone of you has the potential to use those damn "colon/parenteses" smiley faces, so that doesn't help me at all. I'll say this, I have different reasons to believe it's a number of models, but I'm not certain at this point, so I won't guess yet. I need another clue. </p>]]></description>

         <title>Sup Playaz?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Sup Playaz, (that's the cool way to say Players),</p>

<p><br />
I know, you missed me...or you just wanted to know more about the daytime version. Don't worry, you'll get your daily dose of Deal soon enough. Just enjoy the time off. If you find that you can't get through the day without Howie, the Models, The Banker and Briefcases then start up a DOND Anonymous support group to get you through. I suggest meeting Mondays and Wednesdays at 8.</p>

<p><br />
LB: I checked out your bracelets. Very classy. I also saw what the Banker said about them and I agree. Be careful if you're selling those without the expressed written consent from NBC. Otherwise you'll be wearing some other kind of bracelets and those don't look as fancy as yours, they also go great with an orange jumpsuit. <br />

         <title>Another One Bites the Dust</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>One Wedding and Bird Suicide...</p>

<p>First off, congrats LB on the marriage. Side note - I'll be listening to 'Another One Bites The Dust' while I write this post. </p>

<p>Also, RIP to my friends parakeet, Joey The Clown, who past away recently. I don't want to get into CSI graphic details, but let's just say, some of us are convinced that Joey committed suicide. He will be missed. So, I guess that song works for both occasions. On a happier note, Dickus Butkus, the fish, is still alive and well. </p>

<p>Efren/Dollydeb - It's true, some of the crew have gone on hiatus. But the daytime show is coming soon. I don't know anything about a 'van' tour, but I would like to travel around the country in a van with a mural on the outside of a woman riding a Siberian tiger holding a giant sword in the middle of space. Just one of my dreams.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Model Search Contest</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Who's your favorite for the next briefcase model?</p>

<p>Ya know, I worked the day the new girls came in and did their photo shoot for the website. It was a little strange catering to 26 new models and not the regular girls I work with. It kind of felt like I was cheating on my girlfriend(s). But I had fun. They're all great and it's not easy picking one. </p>

<p>Dollydeb - Not sure which models will be part of the daytime version yet.</p>

<p>Dawn - Get well with the hernia surgery. No more Strong Woman Competitions for you this year. Someone else is gonna have to pull that car with their teeth. </p>

<p>The Chick - I can't send you a bracelet because I don't have any. Howie got it from somebody outside the show. You can probably check online for it somewhere. </p>

<p>Steven Waldie - The announcer talks that fast because he wants to be better than the Micro Machines guy from the 80's...and he is given a certain amount of time to say what he needs, so he goes fast. And no it hasn't been confirmed on which models (if any) are leaving the show. As far as you and I know, they're all back next season.</p>

<p>GO CUBS!</p>]]></description>

         <title>Lunch Break Bloggin&apos;</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>This will be quick because I'm on break. </p>

<p>Dawn - I asked Howie about the red bracelet he wears. It says "Never Give Up"; a motto he likes to live his life by no matter what it applies to. But, it was given to him to raise awareness about MS. To those of you, like me, who thought it was a Colbert "wriststrong" bracelet, we were wrong. Maybe Colbert will read this and give both Howie and I (that's right, I'm nudging my way in this) an honorary Wriststrong bracelet? You listening, Colbert?</p>

<p>LB - You sure do spend a lot of time on the world wide web, especially on this blog, for someone who has a wedding coming up. Are you gonna have a laptop set up at the altar so you can give us the play by play of what is going on? </p>

<p>Mary and Charlene (Martha Brown Teachers) - Wow, you're trying to embarrass me with that 6th grade story. You have a better memory than I, or I must have blocked that traumatic historical reenactment out of my mind, 'cause I don't remember that. I'm sure it happened, but it wasn't one of my finer performances that's for sure. I'm more of a Roman, than a Trojan.</p>

<p>Marsha - Don't you worry Marsha. I see ya commenting.  You think the banker has a problem with the contestants having a crush on the girls? Well, of course, look at him. He's a lonely guy in the dark with only a computer and a phone, who stares out of a window at beautiful women. You might as well give him a telescope and a restraining order. </p>

<p>Well I gotta get back.  Kelly wants me to feed her grapes and fan her with a palm leaf. Jokes on her though... we're out of grapes. Ha.</p>

<p>Oh wait, Crafty found some. Never mind.</p>]]></description>
