Thought 19 and Counting Was Bad?

The largest number of children born to one woman is recorded at 69. From 1725-1765, a Russian peasant woman gave birth to 16 sets of twins, 7 sets of triplets, and 4 sets of quadruplets.

And they didn’t even have health insurance!

Whoa, Castle Cliffhanger Wows!

Is Beckett Dead?

ABC TV – In a shocking cliffhanger, the question lingers, “Is Beckett Dead?”

The witty detective series is probably my favorite TV show currently on the air. Nathan Fillion, best know from “Firefly” TV series, plays Richard Castle, a writer following the NYPD on murder mysteries for literary inspiration. Stana Katic plays Kate Beckett, no nonsense cop who is Castle’s inspiration for his book character Nikki Heat. This show is fun to watch, and kind of reminds me of “Moonlighting”. That is without the song and dance routines.

Tonights episode, “Tick, Tick, Tick” quite literally ended with a bang. Castle figures out that a serial killing they have been investigating did not kill himself. As he warns Beckett, the bomb goes off blowing up Beckett’s apartment. So, is Beckett dead?

Fortunately, no. Sorry not a spoiler, just go to the IMDB listing for the show and Stana is credited for the rest of the season. Thank goodness, but ABC should control IMDB a little better.

Farah Fawcett, Dies at 62

Farah dead at 62

I recieved a tweep from the Detroit Free Press and few minutes ago that Farrah Fawcett has died.

Before I became a big fan of Brooke Burke, there was Farrah Fawcett.  Probably my first rememberance of Farrah was a toothpaste comercial.  She always had the perfect smile. Teeth all in place, and so pearly white. It wasn’t until her role in Charlies Angels and that famous (infamous?) poster.
It wasn’t until after Charlies Angels did she gain acceptance and acclaim as an actress in The Burning Bed and Extremities. Often it would be overshadowed by Farrah’s personal life.  Her marriages to Lee Majors and Ryan O’Neal often hit the tabloids.
In 2006, Farrah was diagnosed with cancer, and recently NBC played a documentary filmed by her and her friends called, “Farrah’s Story.”
Tonight there is scheduled an interview of Ryan O’Neal with Barbara Walters where reportedly Ryan has said that he and Farrah were to marry again. Alas, it probably didn’t happen.

Flogos – It’s Not a Bird. It’s a Flogo!

So I watching Robin on HLN’s Morning Express, when CNN did a piece on this new advertisement that is no harmful to the environment.  Bubble ads that float in the sky!

Flogos use a biodegradible soap and helium to create figures that float up in the sky.  Each Flogo lasts for up to 30 minutes, and fly 1 to 30 miles at a slow pace.

So next time you see the McDonald’s symbol in the sky, it may not be your imagination

Flogos – It’s Not a Bird. It’s Not a Plane. It’s a Flogo!.

DeAnna is the Bachelorette Night 2

DeAnna Pappas
Hollywood – Week 2 and guys find out they share one room and an outdoor shower.

The first date had Jason, Ryan, Twilley, Sean, Fred and Richard. It was a magical date, in otherwords it was a magic show. Jason got to disappear with DeAnna. However, Paul got the rose at the end of the date.

Graham got the one-on-one date. She thought he was smoking hot. He didn’t know how to fly a kite, but he made it through with humor. He did get the rose.

After the one-on-one date, Twilley showed up to talk to her.  That’s a great way of getting a girl’s heart, by freaking her out. NOT!

Chris, Robert, Brian, Jesse, Ron, Jeremy, and Eric got the baseball group date. Tommy Lasorda showed up and gave the guys a pep talk.  Chris sang, to tried to, the National Anthem. Next was a home run derby, which Jeremy won. So he got some one-on-one time, and the rose.

But giving Jeremy his second rose, made the guys a bit sensetive. It didn’t help that he called the main house, “His house,” or grabbing time from another guy. You could say he wasn’t playing fair, or that he is concentrating to win . . . either way it was not good.
