RHONJ Family Feud Freezes for a Moment!

RHONJ
Family Feud Freezes For a Moment
On last nights episode of RHONJ we saw Italian family feuding freeze for just a moment. Even in Jersey where the drama is never dull and the housewives are over the top, we view family unity at its best. Sister In laws Teresa and Melissa who have been biting each others heads off for the greater part of the season, seemed to set their differences aside last night. Fans were left wondering if this would in fact be the finale of the family feud we've viewed through the season.
Melissa and Joe Gorga through an even more over the top, then over the top Christmas party on last nights episode. The event was hinted to costing somewhere in the $50,000 range and was fully fashioned with carolers, ice sculptures, super good-looking star servers and even a step and repeat Posh photo op. Melissa made sure she included a charity in her holiday party and asked each guest to bring a gift to be given to children's charity St Joe's children's hospital. Every one Melissa and Joe knew were invited, even including Teresa and Joe Giudice.
Teresa and Joe showed up "tardy to the Party" but none-the- less, they showed up. Every one seemed to be on their best behavior and cordial kisses and hugs were exchanged. In a blink of an eye, the party was put on pins and needles and in walked Kim G, with Monica ( the attorney suing the Giudices) as her plus one. Viewers were appalled by the bad behavior of Kim G. The Manzos, The Giudices and even the Gorgas gasped with disapproval when Caddy Kim G entered irritatingly along with her guest.
Families fight and feud, its a fact of life. But blood is thick and families don't appreciate when one of their own gets attacked. Whether or not Melissa and Joe have agreed to get along well with the Giudices isn't relevant when it comes to others attacking or hurting them. As soon as the Gorgas realized Monica was at the party, the two went to work swiftly to remove her from their home. They repeatedly asked her to leave the party and suggested to Kim G it wasn't a wise idea to have brought her. Regardless of her feelings towards Teresa, Melissa fled to her families defence and for her fabulous behavior this Team Teresa fan is giving Melissa Gorga SNAPs of approval.
Whether or not the family feud has ended still remains to be seen. But blood is definately thick as thieves and you do NOT mess with an Italian jersey Family. As Jacqueline put it. Kim G needs to realize she is messing with a family. Kim G gets the GAG thumbs down for her bad behavior. Watch RHONJ on Sunday nights on Bravo for all the action.

Charlie Sheen gets New Gig

Charlie Sheen Gets New Gig
Have you asked yourself lately where Charlie Sheen has been? Just a few months ago he was platered all over the tabloids, on our TV screens and on our morning news. Then the hype about Sheen siply slipped away. News has it Sheens got a new gig.
While CBS hit show "Two and a Half Men" said "see ya" to Sheen, apparently Sheen picked up the pieces brushed off the dust and moved on full speed ahead. Joe Roth, who produced many of Charlies movies came knocking at Sheens door and gave the guy a gift. A new main roll in a hit new series where Sheen will repotedly have "a signifigant ownership stake" on the show. The show is a spin off of the comedy hit movei "Anger Management". The original movie starred Adam sandler and Jack Nicholson. Sheen is reported to be playing a man with severe anger managemnt issues. Some say the role is perfectly suited to Sheen.  Roth said hes thrilled to work again with Sheen and apparently Sheen feels  the same.
Charlie Sheen has had his moments in the past however he seems to come through without a scratch and now is being given another chance to prove his talent to thousands of fans. We want to know what you think. Does Charlie Sheen get SNAPs for his talent and loyalty to fans or a GAG thumbs down for his horrendous behavior through the years?

Gay and Giving Blood

GAY and GIVING BLOOD!
Recently Aaaron Pace a 22 year old from Indiana went to "Bio Blood Components Inc." to donate blood. When he was in the interview process he was rejected and wanted to know why. He was told that he appeared to be gay and for that reason was not allowed to continue to donate his blood.
While this may sound like discrimination to most, surprisingly it is not. According to a law passed by the FDA in 1983 all men who had sex with other men since or beyond 1977 were banned from giving blood. The law was passed because at the time there was no way to test the blood to ensure it was not HIV positive. With the growing epidemic at that time of AIDS the FDA thought it be best if Homosexual men were banned from giving blood.
Pace was outraged for 2 reasons. One, he said "Its not right that homeless people can give blood but homosexuals can't" and two because he said "and I'm not even a homosexual." According to the "Chicago Sun Times" he is "admittedly and noticeably effeminate, however he says he is not gay.
Unfortunately that isn't the point here. According to recent studies hospitals lose hundreds of thousands of pints of blood each year due to homosexuals not being allowed to contribute blood to needy banks. It's ludicrous to not allow someone to perform an act of kindness based on his/her sexuality. We have come so far towards breaking barbaric barriers down and now celebrate every ones right towards equality. Same sex couples can now wed in many of our states and so many feel less alone due to an outpouring of love supporting all sexualities. This FDA law is primitive. It certainly served its purpose in 1983 when we had no way of knowing if blood would test positive for HIV. No one would want HIV to become an enormous epidemic again. However now our resources can test the blood in the banks and ensure it is pure to give to those in need. Anyone willing to give blood to save another human life should be given the right to do just that. The FDA needs to review and reevaluate this law. Think of the many lives that could be saved by eliminating just one little law. The FDA is getting the GAG thumbs down. Time to get with the times...everyone healthy should be able to DONATE BLOOD!
