Prior to The Price is Right was Truth or Concequences (much before your time I'm sure.) My mom watched that show because she too was in love with Bob. Other than the fact that he's still handsome at his age and was getting it on pretty good with one of his "beauties" a while back is that he's such an animal lover. Another beautiful thing about him that was confirmed the other day when I saw an interview with him was that he was totally in love with his wife. She stopped wearing fur before everyone else, she was a vegetarian as well long before it was hip. They were in love. She died over twenty years ago and the reporter asked him why he never remarried. He said "she was my wife" as he choked back the tears. Now that is a man to be respected.Carnealianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04438541010027037499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-86572710920147663952007-06-06T14:10:00.000-05:002007-06-06T14:10:00.000-05:00Do you and Pia ever disagree?

I ended up sititng behind some UCLA guys and they paid attention to the fact that I was constantly getting the prices right for all the games. When one of the guys got picked to be up in Contestant's Row, he constantly looked back at me for help. Bob Barker made a comment on air about how nice it was to see that the USC/UCLA rivalry was being put aside for the sake of winning. The guy won a buttload of prizes including a car. He didn't make it into the Showcase Showdown because his wheel spin was horrible (not something I could control). He did give me one of the prizes he won since I had helped him out so much. I ended up getting a nice VCR (which has since bit the dust).Xinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03501092550620255199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-43989425051831410542007-06-04T21:34:00.000-05:002007-06-04T21:34:00.000-05:00I'm mad at myself for not remembering to do this e...I'm mad at myself for not remembering to do this earlier, but great choice on the lyrics :)<BR/><BR/>Two classics right there: <I>American Pie</I> and <I>The Price is Right</I>.<BR/><BR/>*sigh*TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02487739742081226423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-64173813955709772372007-06-04T20:41:00.000-05:002007-06-04T20:41:00.000-05:00It will be sad to see him go.
