Match Game

It's OMG version of Match Game












Talk about a good match.




Even apart they pull of the match. Separate coasts even.



And sometimes match and so close you only see one.


And the other ?


Leaving it to Match Game's best, Charles Nelson Reilly to give his call on this one.




WaPo Catching up to the Match Game -
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal doing the New York Times crossword together over breakfast yesterday morning at Georgetown's Le Pain Quotidien -- gym clothes, shades, baseball caps (Jake's with a Nats logo!). And then, hmmm, what do you know, they just happened to leave the paper behind ... and they filled it out in ink. And mostly got it right! The Monday puzzle, but still. The movie stars (she's shooting here) seem to have struggled with 57 Down, "Workplace watchdog org." (Answer: "OSHA"; a few more weeks in D.C. and they'll ace that stuff.)

Reese and crossword puzzles? Yeah right.

This is chica sat on Leno and admitted she loves watching TV. Come on she is so not a crossword puzzle girl. Well not a NY Times crossword puzzle, TV Guide maybe, and Star when she is making sure she got the prime spot in the mag while she is getting the mani pedi.

Now Jakey is a long time puzzle person and if he does the puzzle at the table he doesn't have to talk to her at all does he? He can just focus on the puzzle and not pay attention and jut say uh huh, yeah, yup.



Wait Wait wait. Matching outfits, baseball caps, tennis shoes, doing the puzzle at the breakfast table. They are a fanny pack/bum bag on Reese away from retirees on vacation in DC.

Hey Austin, Jake's ready for slacks now.

  2. I have a Match Game question for you.

    For those who remember the show.

    Jake and Reese's fauxmance is so faux it makes (..blank.....) look real.

    ReplyDelete
  3. LOL! Match Game - I LOVED that show!Sorry for the rash of emails; I'm not going to be inside for lunch today. I am meeting a friend for lunch, someone I've not seen for awhile now.

    But I just wanted to add that I don't have a problem with Jake being in D.C. this weekend. Heck, give me Friday, too, and I'll also gladly pay you Thursday for a hamburger today, eh?

    And google, you are fine & welcome here with your views. If I wasn't at work, I might check a few out, although not Gyllenbabble because I do not go there. We don't share the same views at all so there is no need for me to visit there.

    I just don't think you'll find alot of people to agree with you here. And as far as any of us only seeing what we want to see, well, we could be here all day if you want some of us to point out alllll the inconsistencies we've seen over the past 2 years with Reeke.

    BTW, though, welcome !! If you are new, that is. And if not, well welcome anyways!

  8. Many of these Twitters and blog sightings read credible to me. I think Jake has been in DC since the weekend. Although why he wasn't at the pawn shop, I'll never know.

  9. Yeah, the farmers market does to me, too. But I'm still not checking out every single twitter that is out there and I'm not buying every single one. Twitter is totally unreliable as far as I'm concerned.

    Anyone can post anything at anytime about anyone and that lends itself to all kinds of fabrications. It's just human nature and in 2009, it's also alot of times about grabbing 15 minutes of fame or notriety.

  10. Funny how the matching sports wear doesn't look too bad when modelled by Jake and Austin isn't it. Then again, Austin also adds a certain something to any pic doesn't he.

    Agree Wicked that some of these twittering are probably genuine, its just the total onslaught that makes you smell a rat. I'm also don't think that the residents of DC are so unsophisticated as to get themselves so worked up about J&R. Just seems weird to me.

  12. The reason the weekend stuff seems to me more contrived than real, is that from what we know of Reese, pictures show up as soon as Jake lands (hello The Prado). There is no way she would waste a weekend of ops to get in blogs and rags go by, even if she had to work. Think about it.

    Red Rover Red Rover send Austin right over.

    Hey it would be the one time, Jake wouldn't let go of Reese's hand would it?

    DC really doesn't pap, Spesh. Celebs come here all the time and are largely left alone. Usually just a few pictures, and those mostly from the set, not followed around with pictures every day.

    ReplyDelete
  16. In addition to the things I mentioned in my other posts, the lack of photos, and the timing of the ones we did get, not only in D.C. but NY, also makes me suspicious. And it just feels like these twitters and LJ post were a set-up for the Radar and Post stories. And the whole twitter thing has another pr trademark--overkill.

    One thing is for sure, nothing from Sunday.

    ReplyDelete
  17. The lack of paps has never been an obstacle before. So that leaves two options: Jake wasn't there, or they've dialed it down.

    ReplyDelete
  18. DC really doesn't pap, Spesh.

    Last week Reese was papped 5-6 times in DC. Reeke had no trouble finding paparazzi yesterday.

    There are paparazzi in DC whenever you need them. lol

    ReplyDelete
  19. But as we have seen before, there are no paps that hang around the museums in London, or at the Prada, or even gardens in Paris, and they have found Reese at that split second she is with Jake. It's as if somehow as if unicorns transported photographers magically right there.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Many of these Twitters and blog sightings read credible to me. I think Jake has been in DC since the weekend.

    Oh no! Wicked has been bought off by the evil PR ninjas! How much did they pay you to sell out?

    Joking of course. I know sightings can be made up, but there is no way they are all coming from PR. You can look at the accounts and see how long they've been twittering for, what they've been talking about etc. No-one who is saying these are coming from PR has actually shown anything to suggest that they are. But then I think baby tile is a stupid, stupid fantasy and I can't believe anyone can swallow that nonsense, so I don't think it matters where Jake spent Father's Day.

    Paps have motorbikes. They don't just sit in one spot and wait for celebs to wander past them. And I
    don't know about the other two, but here in London paps are plentiful. Wouldn't take them more than ten minutes to get to a major tourist spot. All this talk about paps magically appearing is silly anyway; do paps hang around bookstores in the middle of the night? Then how did we get those lovely pictures of Jake and Austin checking out the books (and each other)?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Wouldn't take them more than ten minutes to get to a major tourist spot.

    True - PR just needs to make a call.

    ReplyDelete
  24. In cities like NY and LA where there are a lot of paps, they rely on tips from people to find stars hanging out in places where they are not usually found. I've seen it in action. Once I saw a photographer hanging outside the restaurant I was in, and he was clearly scoping out the restaurant across the steet. Turns out Uma Thurman was inside with her boyfriend, and yes, someone had tipped off the pap. It was downtown on a Saturday afternoon, a very empty, pap-free area of town.



    I can believe paps were scrambling to find Jake back then, especially Jake with Austin or anyone else that might answer the question, who is he really with.

    Can't see that happening today with Reeke or Reese. The paps are either called out, or they go to places where they know they will be seen, e.g., certain areas of Beverly Hills. And I really would be surprised if paps go out of their way to find Reeke when they frequent pap areas, and/or there are so many boring photos of them that I doubt they get much money for them. Most of them are probably chasing off the people who are really hot right now, and that is not reeke.

  25. True - PR just needs to make a call.

    Or anyone else with a phone. That's my point: you don't have to pin everything on PR. If you drop two famous people at a major tourist hotspot in the middle of one of the five capitals of the world they are going to get their picture taken. That's why I don't understand Special K including that in her list of places that require magical unicorn riding paps to get to.

    Now pictures from a night time visit to Borders, that takes some explaining.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Anyone who thinks that all the Reeke picture sets were just random moments of them being caught, can't really be taken serious, IMO.

    Even if you think they're a real couple and like them together, you'll have to admit that there's a huge amount of photo-ops in there.

    Paps might very well be hanging out in London, but one fact is that Jake wasn't photographed all that much when he was there by himself - before and after Reese showed up there. If the lack of pictures had been only before Reese showed up and they just happened to catch her the moments she arrives (highly doubtful in itself)and then started stalking Jake/Reeke, then that might be somewhat believable.
    But the picture onslaught stopped again right the day she flew out of there.

    Paps don't generally hang out in Morocco or, like Special said, Spanish museums, though. Which might also explain why there are never pictures of other celebrities at those places...

    And like several people said before: There have been almost daily pictures of Reese on set, starting the very first day she arrived there.
    There are two possibilities for that:
    1) the paps just happened to find her there and then returned every single day (highly unlikely since none of the other actors have been pictured even once)
    2) the paps were called to take the pictures

    Should it be 1) then the paps would have gotten Reeke if Jake had been there before the gym pictures, since the paps would have followed Reese from set and the Twitter sightings have them being very visible.
    If it's 2) then, like Special said, Reese would not have let the opportunity of a whole week/weekend full of photo-ops just gone by.

    The Borders pics were supposedly taken by a pap dragged to the bookstore by his girlfriend. Whether that is true? Who knows?
    I do think J&A sometimes go to places they know the chances of being photographed are bigger (Lakers comes to mind) to make a point.
    Did they do it in the case of Borders to let people know they're still together and share the same friends or was it a coincidence the pap was there? Who knows?
    One thing is clear though. They can't hide the looks and smiles and they're certainly not trying, something that is sorely lacking from Reeke pics regardless of whether they're really caught or it's a set-up.

    And there's a huge difference between doing it on a bi-weekly basis and doing it every few months. One would be providing people a little glimpse into your relationship, the other is pretty much living your private life for the public.

  27. All this talk about paps magically appearing is silly anyway; do paps hang around bookstores in the middle of the night?

    Just because Reese and Reeke are arranging paparazzi photo ops all the time, it doesn't mean that paparazzi don't catch celebrities when that doesn't suit them.

    Remember Reese yelling at paparazzi? She didn't call them that day.

    Reese (her PR) did call them to the museums, pig farms, Morocco, London, Paris, Mexico, Oaji, music festivals, softball practices, DC, ...

  30. Oh, and one more thing:
    Where were all those civilian people taking picture of Reeke in the US capital this whole week?

    You can't have it both ways and say the other pictures are all just regular people taking pictures and then turn around and say that the Twitters must me true even though all those people didn't take one single picture this time.

  32. Paps might very well be hanging out in London, but one fact is that Jake wasn't photographed all that much when he was there by himself - before and after Reese showed up there.

    What do you mean "might very well be"? Do you know London at all? This city is pap central. Look, I don't want to get into some huge argument about Reeke and paps, and just saying that talking about paps needing unicorn rides to get pictures of Reeke in London is ridiculous. And it's not surprising that there were more pictures of Jake and Reese than of Jake by himself; Reese is the bigger star and pictures of the two of them together are going to worth a hell of a lot more than pictures of Jake alone.

    And Stubborn, I never said anything about regular people taking pictures of Reeke, I never mentioned Twitter, and you aren't making any sense. Since we have pictures of Reeke in DC now, I guess that there must be other pictures taken on the same day by regular people, so where are those pictures? I guess they exist, but I wouldn't know where to find them.

    We know all babbler's points.

  34. Reese was papped at The Tate with her kids in London. An I remember people here on OMG who are from London saying, the paps are never at The Tate.

    Because honestly, if you were a pap would you say, I am going to stalk The Tate and see if any celebs come today? The same with The Prado. Museums are not the place for Paps. There is no point. They have to get in and out and file their pictures. There livelihood is not just getting the shot but getting the next shot of the next thing or person before anyone else.

  35. Pap,

  36. Pap, read your own posts.
    You said that anyone with a camera would take pictures and if you put Reeke in a capital someone would take a picture.
    And that was pretty much my question: Where are all those Twitter pics? Maybe it's because I'm European, but I wasn't aware that only we have those things called cameras... I'd assumed that people in DC do as well. Go figure.

    And while English isn't my first language I'm pretty sure "could very well be" doesn't mean "it doesn't happen". As you very well know.

    And I could go on, but you've already acted like a troll, so I'm just going to assume this is more of your trollish behaviour. And Special K, why are you still talking about paps waiting at a place? I already said that the point I was making was that paps can just GO to the museum. It's not hard.

    You said that anyone with a camera would take pictures and if you put Reeke in a capital someone would take a picture.

    No I didn't, so stop being so patronising and try reading my posts.

    Why is everyone being so dense and defensive on this one point? All I am saying is that in the ONE case of being pictured in London, it's stupid to talk about magical unicorns. That's it. I AGREE that the majority of Reeke pictures are set ups. I can't believe I'm getting swarmed on for making such a simple point. IF YOU WANT TO ARGUE THAT THE TWITTER POSTS ARE FAKE, GO ARGUE WITH WICKED.

  38. where are those paparazzi telephone numbers?

    I don't know about America, but in the UK you can pick up any of the daily newspapers and you'll find a gossip page with a number and email address you can use to get in contact with them if you spot someone famous.

    ReplyDelete
  39. First you talk about capitals then you claim you were only talking about London.
    Then you mention that everybody with a camera can take pictures, but claim you didn't mean regular people. Since your name is pap, I'm sure you would be able to just say paps if that was what you meant.

    As for the UK newspapers. Where are all those pics of Reeke taken by regular people and sold to newspapers?
    For some reason I think we would have been pointed to them right away had there been some.
    The scan of the pic of Jake eating icecream in Morocco taken by a visitor was posted on IHJ and on every Jake blog.

    You really need to pick one argument and go with it. Going from "I never said regular people took the pics" to saying "regular people take pics and sell them to newspapers" doesn't really work.

  40. A break in all of the Reeke for some Austin.

    AUSTIN SITTING DOWN FOR AN INTERVIEW WITH E!


    I love how he always looks so unsure of what to do with himself during interviews. He looks so cute when he's lost.

    He either loses the point of his story or he starts playing with his clothes or jewelry.
    Or he tries to keep his hands occupied like in the picture.

    He's so much better with one on one conversations with fans.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Let's just admit it guys, the paps are everywhere: the Tate, outside vacant houses in Notting HIll, museums in Spain, resorts in Mexico, Morocco, movie sets in N.C., pig farms ......the paps in D.C. were just too dumb to find Reeke and that's why we didn't get any photos until Monday. ;)

    The newest picture of Austin doing the interview with E! he's has his Clark Desert boots that he wore to Borders on. (Shout out to the Wu-Tang!) And the humidity is doing crazy things to his hair - check out the curls.

I said that regular people can CALL newspapers. CALL THEM, not sell them pictures. Damn it, read my posts instead of repeating this rubbish again. Ok, I just noticed that English isn't your first language, so I understand why you might misread some of my posts.

  51. No pics from weekend: People don't do pics much anymore like they used to, with cell phones. And they certainly don't do it much with Jake or Reeke...they're boring and old news so why waste the memory and really, who the fuck cares if they're seen. Also like "Flynet" said at 2:13, maybe Reeke has dialed it down..maybe Jake got tired of being papped right off the bat and told Reese to cut him some slack and give him some air for a day or 2 after he arrives for work. Also, this weekend was Fathers Day....if you haven't noticed 95% of paps are male...maybe most of them were unavailable because they wanted to be with their families. An opportunity to do a Reeke pap for pay is a dime a dozen.

    EXACTLY.

    Sure, with the Twitters or anything for that matter, it's good to not be gullible, but there's a lot of denial going on here with you people who think it's all PR-generated. You can't just dismiss an eyewitness because its a Twitter and there's no pic, not at all. Well maybe some of you can, but what you're doing is being too lazy to put on your thinking caps, do some research on the Twitter's origin and back history of the owner and use your powers of critical thinking. The few Twitters of Jake over the weekend came from DC, they didn't come from Montana or Japan, Greece or Idaho or LA. They came from one local, DC. I haven't looked at the Twitter owners yet but my bet is they have varied contacts and tons of different subject histories with alot of updates.

    Yes, PR can set up Twitters, but it's a mighty harder to maintain than LJ accounts because of its realtime focus, the much wider extent of contacts and the coverage of endless suibject matter. You really believe PR is going to make hundreds and thousands of entries on hundreds of made-up fake personas, strategically placed over all the world and keep up charade conversations with more Twitter fake friends over a period of several months so they can make a one-time entry "I saw Jake and Reese at a resturarant cuddling" or "Jake was at Farmers Market"???

    Cmon, really. Twitter is available to everyone, it's realtime communication by, between, for and to the masses. PR can't stop it or control it.

  53. I have been following the Perez thing. Just more evidence of what a jerk, and possibly self-loathing homophobe, he is. He is not well-liked in the gay community as far as I can see, you should see all the comments on towleroad about him. I really hate the way he goes after men who have the balls not to beard and just live their lives, just because they're lower down on the food chain and easier to attack, all while protecting the A-listers. There have always been rumors about Will.I.Am., so for him to call him a f*goot....

Maybe the nanny was on that pirate ship in London.

    I'm not saying all people do that but there are some people who see an opportunity, and jump on it so they will get people to go to their twitter, and can get more followers.

    Yes IA but so can be confessing to a murder you didn't commit.

    Tell you what, why don't you a few of you do an experiment. Start a Twitter account, do a Jake sighting and see how many followers you get from it afterwards. (And 2 weeks later, how many of them leave.) Seriously. Especially Wicked who is in DC, she could do a slew of sightings of Jake perusing the merchandise at gay bars, horny Reese at lesbian tea dances, Reeke handing out money on the streets and Wicked hearing a noise outside her house and finding Reeke fucking on her front lawn (lol).

    ReplyDelete
  61. I'm not dismissing twitters. I think a number, but not all, of the ones we got from New York were real, partly because I know he spends a lot of time here, both for fun and business, in addition to reeke.

    Some of us here like dissecting pr and reeke's actions, and I for one do think pr would use twitter. It's easier than LJ actually, since twitters only last a couple of weeks, so no pesky questions about gaps in activity.

    While I'm very interested in pr and bearding tactics, at the end of the day it really doesn't matter to me. Jake is still gay, still bearding, still with Austin, and possibly a father. I also don't think he spent Sunday with Reese, regardless of whether the earlier twitters were made up or real. Planes do fly in two directions, so Austin could have just as easily spent the weekend in D.C. as Jake flying somewhere to meet Austin.

    As M said, someone doth protest an awful lot over this issue.

    Sorry I'm not a babbler. I probably didn't word my response right. I was trying to say that for 3 years Reeke has been bullshit, and its funny that people are still incredulous about it being bullshit. Yes it still smells but after 3 years you'd think you'd be a little used to it by now.

    I have thought that too Dest. Bottom line to me it just seems that Jake did not spend his time with Reese this past weekend.

    ReplyDelete
  65. I would think Austin has better things to do then stalk Bubble boy and Legally blonde to Dc or elsewhere. I love that he is filming in NC and has a place there and likes it as well as bonding with the cast, good for him.

    BTW, isn't it time Hilton's link is deleted from this blog?

  66. "someone doth protest an awful lot over this issue."

    Who? People like me who are experienced in Twittering and are setting straight some of the fallacies running rampant around here about them, like how they only last a few weeks? How a cluster of DC sightings must mean, oh my god, it's all PR's doings, PR runs Twitter and Jake is really in Texas or wherever with Austin? Who protests too much? Is correcting ignorance now called "protesting"?

  69. "Bottom line to me it just seems that Jake did not spend his time with Reese this past weekend"

    Any time or all his time? So what if he went to the movies on Sunday with the Chin. Maybe it was Austin's Fathers Day gift to Jake, for him to get out while he took care of the bitchy kid for the afternoon. Or maybe Jake had to disappear while surprise FD celebrations were being set up. Going to the movies with the Chin is easy easy PR. You can't talk during the movies. I used to take my weirdo bitch self-centered yapping gossiping mother in law to the movies, it was the only way I could make points for doing something with her while getting her to shut the fuck up for two hours.

  73. Criminetley's, thank you Special & Destiny for condensing down to just the basics.

    And thank you London & Stubborn, as well.

    I'm glad I didn't get mixed up in all of that mess. Some things aren't worth that kind of aggravation. Me? I was napping - boy, was I tired. I don't get enough sleep at night - it's my own fault.

    Cool!! Austin sitting down with E! Now we are getting somewhere!!!
    Lol, those girls sure did like Austin, didn't they.

    Me? Now everyone here knows my 1 cent opinion of Twitter. Hate it. Hate the name. Hate the Twitter!

    Sure, just like blogs, some are going to be legit and some not. I'm not weeding through all that pablum to try and dissect histories and what might be a legitimate account, etc etc on every single stinkin' twitter. Good gosh, for one thing I get up @ 4:15 in the morning so I can get a walk in before I go to work. LOL, hence a nap when I got home because I don't get enough sleep. But anyway, you get my drift.

    Now, look at this E twitter dee dum. They have a picture to back up their claim.

    Bottom Line. I hate the Twitter. Think it's Stupid. I don't have to like it if I don't want to. I am not bent out of shape over Father's Day. I don't have to be if I don't want to be. I'll believe what I want because hey, I'm me and I am my own person.

    Pap & Logic, you believe whatever in the heck you want. Go wear a sandwich board & walk up and down the streets of your neighborhood proclaiming the wonders of Twitter and Father's Day and Paparazzi to your heart's content. I myself? I don't have to if I don't want to. This is a blog. Open to opinions and rants and online smooches if you so desire.

    But when you start capping & cussing at my friends, I'm going to toss my Ambassador Welcome Wagon sash aside and say knock it off. Clean up the language, calm down & stop working this entire thing into a hopeless lather. It's ridiculous and totally unproductive because you're not going to change the bottom line opinion here of the folks you have been conversing with on this particular subject.

    For gosh sakes, let's change the subject. If you're new, introduce yourselves. Logic, where do you live? Do you guys like Jake? Like Reese? I take it one of you is not fond of Austin, which kind of makes me lean towards thinking....nah, I won't.
    Anyways, what do you 2 like to do in your spare time? Do you like music? Do you like movies? What's your favorite Jake movie? Who do you envision Jake being with? Do you like slash? What's your favorite story you're reading right now? Do you like Virgil's Root beer? It is the best tasting stuff - best root beer in the world. Do you walk for exercise? Do you do Pilates? Track? Volleyball? Do you like Cheez Its?
    Come on, let's converse. I want to know all about you, forget all this pap, Twitter, Father's Day stuff, it's gotten old.

  75. Especially Wicked who is in DC, she could do a slew of sightings of Jake perusing the merchandise at gay bars, horny Reese at lesbian tea dances, Reeke handing out money on the streets and Wicked hearing a noise outside her house and finding Reeke fucking on her front lawn (lol).

    Uh, no.

  76. Ahhhhhhh...for gosh sakes...Calgon, pleeeeeeazzze take me away.

    Whew, guys, I feel out of Scoffer Attack shape. That was really taxing and I didn't even participate in it, LOL!

    Now to get serious.

    I was very saddened about a few things today.

    One, to learn that Ed McMahon passed away. What a part of American culture he really was, when you think about it. Who didn't hear of "And heeeeeeere's Johnny!" And he did those Publisher's Clearing House commercials for so long. And to have the last years of his life spent being in the news in the way that he was, breaks my heart. May he rest in peace.

    I have also been saddened to read that the death toll on the DC Metro Train accident did nothing but rise higher than where it was yesterday. What a tragic event.
    I'm telling you; we never, never know what is around the bend. We can literally go to cross the street and not live to see the other side. At any time, on any day. This accident just proves that point.

    I had lunch today with the dearest of friends,someone I hadn't seen since before the New Year, I bet. She & I used to work together and we've remained friends. We actually grew up in the same neighborhood, but she's about 4 yrs behind me and I knew of her, but I didn't know her, personally. But at work, we got to know each other and are such kindred spirits. She is such a unique individual and has done it all, I'm telling you. And you know how some people that you work with & are also friends with, when you no longer work together, sometimes you run out of stuff to talk about and you lose touch. But not her. Her & I can get together on the phone or whatever and just yak and yak and yak. She is just the best. And what a good time it was. Good friends are just so hard to find sometimes. It means alot to just try & stay in touch with people. It's worth it.

  77. "But when you start capping & cussing at my friends,"

    Oh really when did I do that?

    As for you not liking Twitter, thats your opinion and thats fine. What I was doing was clearing up misperceptions, looking at it like you would evidence, weeding out the unbelieveables, taking into consideration the validity as respects to the owners historical entries and going with the obvious majority re sighting geography. I think Wicked would agree with that. But I guess some of you guys don't go for logical thinking, or care if anyone else takes the time to analyze the pros and cons of Twitter.

    As for changing the subject, no. Why should I bother, when you, Prairie Girl, are clearly full of animosity and hatred. Yes, you. I have tried to be cordial and cool on this site but every time, it's you who turns me away. You used to be so nice. Now, you're the spur who turns people like me off on posting. Go ahead, celebrate it. But every time, like now, I wonder why I bother. Special is the only friendly face around here anymore. You, Prairie Girl, maybe you ought to take a good look at yourself, you might be surprised to find that you aren't so friendly anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  78. And Special, this post today was just stupendous. Match Game. LOLL! And Charles Nelson Reilly. What a great picture of him. Remember him & Brett Somers sat next to each other all the time? And you had Richard Dawson in the middle on the bottom row. And Fannie Flagg or Joyce Boulifant used to sit alot in that bottom row, last chair. Whoever sat in that chair was usually a kind of bad player. If someone was going to blow 6 right answers in a row, it was going to be whoever sat in that chair.

    And as for Reeke fauxmance being so faux looking it makes ______ look real? Hmmm, how about aluminum siding?

  79. Btw I have a Masters in Mass Communications and I work in the field, so yes I study it on a daily basis and I do know what I am talking about, all aspects, trends and the validity of communications within large networks. How many of you can say that?

    ReplyDelete
  80. Animosity and hatred. Hmm. That's good. Logic, yeah, something told me that I've probably talked to you before. And yeah, if I've turned you off, it's probably because you've been derogatory on here at someone.

    Ahhhhh, perhaps you are the Twitter expert who has so kindly provided the links for which I was so ungrateful for and failed to bow down for. Did you miss my apology afterwards, too? Also may possibly be someone else on another blog that I've run into. Funny, had a run in over there, too. I won't presume on that one as I only have one big clue on here today, so far.

    Get over yourself. Hey, I'm not perfect. I get mad just like anybody else. I reckon you've driven your car every day of your license held life and never gotten upset one single time. Never spoken online to anyone without being rude?? Oops, maybe we shouldn't count that one.

    By gosh, I'll dish it out unasked for, unapologized for if I feel the need. Don't want to change the subject? Okay. Keep going for all you're worth. Something tells me you're going to lose your audience. So put on the sandwich board and go on. Slap that Masters Degree on a Post It , on your forehead and go for it. That Masters will solve and land you everything.

  83. Wow is that Zach video wild. I love it! I think he's just having a good laugh at the paps expense. And isn't he involved in a company that makes short films of some kind, kind of wonder if that doesn't tie in somehow.

    And boy is that Lainey post on Emile unnecessarily harsh. I just don't get Shia. And beard? Last time I was surfing around DL nobody seemed to have heard anything about his being gay, a few posters said he was straight but very gay friendly. If there's specific gossip out there about him I'd love to hear it.

  84. That is sad about Butch, the cat. I don't know the whole history of Ted and his pets, but as an animal lover in general and having watched some people's dogs, and owned a dog, guppie, canary and some gerbils, anyone who loses a pet of any kind hurts. And I'm sure Ted is really hurting today.

    I always have liked an answer that Billy Graham gave to someone who asked if he thought that our pets would join us in heaven. And Billy was honest and said he didn't know. But he did say this and it's just a paraphrase. Somewhere I have that column clipped out of a newspaper, but the basic thing he said was that if our pets are so important to us, that God knows it & it's important to Him what is important to us. And he wouldn't be surprised if somehow we all will rejoined with our pets in some way after we die. I didn't probably put that near as well as Billy Graham did years ago, but really, it was a beautiful answer that he gave.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Got a question for you, Logic, since you're now the go to person for all things Twitter.

    You claim that one of the reasons for the DC sightings being 100% legit due to the age of the Twitterist's account, the amount of what other useless minutia they have shared with the rest of cyberspace. A case of quantity trumping quality, I guess.

    Now here's my question: what about all those other sightings? The ones that put Jake in TN, TX, and a plethora of other places. They all proved bogus, a case of mistaken identity. What's the age of those accounts, the volume of posts? Any comparison to the DCers?

    A chance perhaps the Twittering from our nation's capital falls into the same category of I could have SWORN that was Reese's bf I just saw drive by?

    Oh, and a snark about that crosswords "story." Worked as a server through grad school, and I HATED those patrons that left their brought in with them trash on the table for me to clean up after. Reeke, nconsiderate and unclassy IMHO.

    ReplyDelete
  86. And sorry that I'm seeing my blogger name on here so much, but I gotta say one more thing and then I really am off, I swear!

    I don't know where people have gotten the assumption or expectation that I'm some nun or Annette Funnicello. Maybe it's the blogger name - Prairie Girl. Some people think I'm like Laura Ingalls Wilder or that I've mentioned I go to church as often as I can or believe in Jesus Christ the Risen Lord.

    But, people, that doesn't make me any kind of perfect behaving saint or a virginal numbskull or this person to hold up to an impossible level of behavior.
    This is the thing that just bugs me to death about when people pick on "Christians" when they err or say something rude or behave badly. Being a believer in Christ or just trying to be a "good" person never, ever means that you're not human and by gosh, going to fall.

    And my rant up above is nothing to glorify the One I love or set an example with, but is just an example of how easily anyone can allow themselves to be pulled "down" into bad behavior. Note, I'm not shifting responsibility at all there; I take full responsibility for whatever comes out of my mouth.

    I don't know where I'm going with this but I just get the feeling sometimes that there's this misconception or too high of expectation of how I'm supposed to be just because of my name or something and it irritates me. I like people and I enjoy people, but my goal in life shouldn't or isn't to be to make you feel good. Don't pin that on me because I'll let you down every time.

  89. That cat's been ill for a little while, hasn't it? Because I thought Ted had said he was doing better. Maybe that was one of his other critters.

    I wonder how Atticus is doing. All this traveling on the other side of the States and I have to wonder if Atticus is at a kennel in California? Does he get driven to the east coast, too? Does a dogsitter come stay with him? Where is Atticus during these times?
    Where is Reese's dog? You never see her dog on the movie sets. I see Mariah Carey or Paris sometimes carrying their dogs around.

    LOL, not that Jake could "carry" Atticus around in a carrier. But, you know.

    What do these people do with their dogs for these long periods of time? I know the owners that I dogsit for would miss their pets horribly. Shoot, some of them want me to call as soon as I get into the house, some would rush home in a heartbeat if anything were to happen.

    I don't understand this part of the celeb's life, I guess is what I'm trying to say and how important their dog or cat is to them?

  90. English TV Presenter/Actor Andi Peters official(???)twitter says that he was standing next to Jake in a Rite Aid. Jake was buying Budweiser. Andi buying protein shakes. But he doesn't say where the Rite Aid is.

  91. WDW published the crossword Jake worked on this Monday. I do crosswords too so printed it out to give it a whirl. Don't want to burst anyone's bubble but it was beginner easy. I am guessing Jake can do harder ones, since he has been seen doing them a lot, but this one was a no brainer.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Jake buying Bud?! If it was a true tweet then Jake bought beer on a Tuesday night before 10 pm, a curious time/day to be doing it. Going to see Dad or to commiserate with a friend? Or maybe it's for hair conditioner. Beer is great for hair. It's also great for constipation which is understandable after spending any amount of time with the Chin. I agree it sounds like he's in LA. 2-3 days of Reeking in DC is more than enough.

  100. Maybe Andi and Jake are still in the Rite Aid parking lot.

    ReplyDelete
  101. It's possible Andi saw Jake in a DC area Rite Aid. For 1 thing Andi said in his Twitter he was "going abroad" not to L.A., another is while the So you think you can Dance show is being taped in L.A. there are also auditions for the next season going on across the U.S. (Andi didn't say if he was a guest host for which one, the current competition or tryouts, if at all), and also Andi mentioned he met Randy Jackson, who is finished with taping Idol right now and might be away from L.A. So it's possible the Rite Aid encounter happened in DC, on the East Coast, hell anywhere there's a Rite Aid, or it could have been L.A. I'm still shocked Jake was buying Bud, LOL. Must have been for his hair.
