All We Are Saying...

... is Give Peace a Chance [US] - Give Peace A Chance

Given former Beatle John Lennon's penchant for peace, I wonder if he ever saw the irony in his failure to make full amends with Paul McCartney....

Hey Paula, thanks for stopping in. Yah, I always thought the disconnect between Lennon's philosophies and realities somehow escaped him.

Then again, doesn't that happen to us all?!?

Hey BVL ~ Nice blog!

Tonight is the big night ~ code word: "kept". I keep hoping for a surprise ending and some sort of Kept Continued for next year. Reality TV is my new Guilty Pleasure and I am so hooked!

OK... who remembers where they were the day John Lennon died? I do! I do! :)

Thanks for the entertainment... I lurk on PiPi too. Gads... I'm like the peeping tom of the internet. Popcorn for all.

You're welcome and... well, it's over.. ::Cries on Monkey's shoulder, picturing Austen standing left behind. Then gets a grip, straightens up and flies rite::

Twas fun while it lasted, hope I never get hooked on a reality show again!

OK, where was I the day that John Lennon was shot.. ::thinks:: I do recall seeing him play on the Ed Sullivan show, was in grade school, and the Beatles were in town!! But where was I when I heard he was shot...oh, I think I caught the breaking news on TV and stood before it with mouth agape. Where were you???

(Peeping Tom of the internet LOL)

You are not alone BVL. "Kept" was my first reality show too. The first show I've been hooked on in ages. Now that it's over, it's so depressing. Like the day after Christmas when you're a kid.

John Lennon: Oddly enough I was home sick. My friend Bryan (my gay punk friend, does every girl have one of these friends in highschool?) called me at home and told me to turn on the TV. We cried over the phone and I couldn't go to the vigil at his house in Palm Beach because I was sick! Argh. That was a weird day.

What the hell will I do on Thursday nights?? Do I want to get hooked on a new show? Or should I "just say no"?

A terrible and weird day. Lennon was such a talent. IMO he was the true artist/writer of the Beatles. Paul's stuff always came off like bubblegum. (Sorry DebDeb I know you always loved Paul!)

As for *just saying no*. Maybe we should start an internet KA (Kept Addiction) meeting. We'll meet on Thursday, 9pm!

I'm thinking of starting a foundation:

The Keep Seth and Austen in the Public Eye Foundation.

What do you think? ;) I could also circulate a petition to VH1 to get a show for them. I'm one of those "activist" people. LOL!

In the meantime... a KA meeting sounds perfect.

Hey guys! I was named after a Beatles song! Meeee-shellll my bellll...

Strange thing about it though, is, it's supposed to be about a French girl, right? Isn't Michel (pronounced the same as my name, Michelle) a dude's name in France?

I get that all the time when I run into Europeans and I tell them my name. I always thought that the elle ending meant it was the feminine version. Think maybe the're just trying to make fun?

Hey Monkey! Keep eatin' bananas, and we'll keep havin Seth throw them for you (or at you).

When I tell Europeans my name is Black Velvet they just laff. ::giggles::

Monkey, I think the Seth Austen Show is just what Vh1 needs. Go activate them!

And the KA will meet this Thursday in chatroom *Lost Without You* at 9pm sharp.

Does the bloggersphere have a chatroom?

I don't think they have a chatroom, but damn I'm going to need some serious healing on Thursday night. I feel like a cheesy 80's song. "I'm so lost without you.. wail wail wail".

KA Thursday, maybe I'll set up a blog for it, and we can just comment in real time?

There has to be an online chat we can make a KA room and all go to. ::Goes to look for one:::
