Title: Hey Gamp
Post by: Jessie on April 09, 2006, 08:52:31 PM
What's the story with tonight's EMHE? 

I caught the end of it, but I missed what happened with their baby/babies.

Also, where's Ty?

I'm still watching it - I'm at 9:30 right now.  The story is that they had two girls and then a boy who died.  And then a girl who has a brain disorder - she's missing a lot of brain.  And then a boy.  Ty is taping the hurricane relief shows.

Why did the boy die?  What was wrong with him?

I don't know.  I was doing laundry and missed that part.  Guess I could rewind, but I'm not done with the show yet.

I turned it on right as she was looking at the shadowbox, and damn if I didn't cry.

Oh, and the mom looks so much like Mellisa from Real World Miami.

I'm ashamed that I know that.

I always cry. EMHE is a sobfest.  I still don't know why the son died - but apparantly it was almost immediately after birth.
Title: Re: Hey Gamp
Post by: Gamplayerx on April 09, 2006, 09:40:03 PM
All they said about the child that died was that they were told he had a fatal condition and he only lived 3 hours after birth.

The one tonight was a woman with 6 kids who couldn't live in her house because it had toxic mold.  Her husband (a volunteer firefighter) delivered her 6th kid and then died 24 days later - from the mold.

Ty needs a haircut.  The acne chic was a little over the top.  I teared up more than once though.  I was thinking of eos mom most the time though.

Wake up

Grab a brush and put on a little makeup

Whyd you leave the keys up on the table
I dont think you trust in my self righteous suicide

They screamed too much on EMHE and got on my nerves.

A friend of Grumpus's lives on the same block as the house on tonight's show.  She said that in order to keep the neighbors happy, they did repair work and home improvement projects to each and every home on the block.

What was the story tonight?  I didn't tune in til the end.
Title: Re: Hey Gamp
Post by: Gamplayerx on May 06, 2007, 09:13:34 PM
It wasn't a very heartwrenching story.  Single mother of 4 bought a house - turns out the house was completely destroyed by termites and held together by tape.  So she and her 4 boys had been living in the dining room of her parents one-room townhouse for the last year and a half while she worked two jobs trying to come up with the money to rebuild the house.

Her husband didn't die tragically, as far as I can tell - they just divorced.

EDIT:  her oldest son is amazingly well spoken

EDIT #2:  the twins are adorable!

EDIT #3:  too bad one of them isn't a falsetto child

Kate wanted to know if we had a good enough story to get a home makeover.

You should upgrade to a Tivo Series 2 or 3 that can watch/record two separate events at the same time. We are about to upgrade our HD Series 3 to 1 TB.

We don't have a Tivo anymore.  (that's not true, we still have a Tivo - it's just in a cardboard box and not hooked up to anything), but our Comcast DVRs allow us to watch/record two separate events at the same time.  In fact, I can record two things and watch yet another that was previously recorded.  Of course, this presumes that I have control of the remote.  Which I do not currently have.
