Denise Richards is a mom again! But there’s no baby daddy drama this time. She recently adopted a baby girl only a few weeks old and named her Eloise Joni after her mother Joni who passed away in 2007. Congratulations!
Last Friday at Live @ 5, an elephant entered the room when a woman called and got through our producer, lying that she was going to talk about our topic, but ambushed Steve on the air and said she was pregnant. Since then, Steve has gotten in contact with her and she has agreed to come on the air with us today.
Stephanie apologized on the air because when she called us on Friday, she was absolutely sure she was pregnant, but never took a test. Now that she has taken a test, she has discovered that she is not pregnant. She was just tired of Steve never answering any of her calls or text messages, so she felt like it was the only way to go about it. Steve tried to explain saying Monday through Friday is business to him and he apologized, but Stephanie said in her mind it was business that she would tell Steve she might be pregnant. In the end, Stephanie and Steve both apologized to each other and goodbye is goodbye.
Everyone is scared of at least one thing that people can’t wrap their brains around, such as a fear of buttons or pan phobia. (Which is the fear of everything) I feel like my phobia however is justified as I am deathly afraid of mice and rats. It’s not the mouse or rat themselves, it’s the disease that these disgusting animals carry. Rats were one of the main reasons for the black plague in Europe. Am I weird or is my fear justified?
Today’s other people’s problems Chance was at a cross roads:
Yi guys! Two and a half years ago I fell in love with the most beautiful woman on the face of the earth. Things were great in our relationship and I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. I asked her to marry me 8 months ago and she said yes! Then, 4 months ago she got a nose job. I knew she was going to do it, but I had no idea that she wanted to make the drastic change that she did. I’ve given it a few months and, I hate to admit it, but I’m not attracted to her anymore. She’s not the beautiful girl I fell for a few years ago. What should I do guys? I still love her personality but how can I spend the rest of my life with someone that I can’t stand to look at?

According to Slacker women will fall in love with then man that they hope him to be, where men fall in love with the woman that they hope will never change. Can one live the rest of their life with someone that they are not attracted to? How much of love is physical and how much is emotional? And is one settling if they love the personality of the person that they are with and yet they have to talk themselves into being physically attracted to them?
My initial reaction to reading this letter was that Chance was a jerk. And that if he didn’t love the women that he proposed to because of a nose change than they should not be getting married. However, after further thought, I suppose that I am a bit of a hypocrite. How often have I said to my friends “He is great, but I wish he was taller” or “He is so much fun, but the physical attraction is not there?” Is this a dilemma that almost every individual faces? How often is it that you meet a person you absolutely adore what they look like and you also love who they are? Are all relationships about compromise? Personally I don’t ever want to settle, nor do I ever want to be with someone that I am not attracted to. If she was unhappy with the way she looked before and is pleased with it now there is nothing wrong with her choice. But if he was happy with the previous her and yet is miserable with the way she looks now, than is he really in the wrong? I don’t know what the right is, but I do know that life is too short to be unhappy.
Slacker says that a fake-up is a fake-out break up. It is when friend breaks up with their significant other and finally you have the green light to unload everything that you hated about that person. And then they get back with them and you look like a big jerk.
When I was in college I worked at a restaurant and had a friend who was dating another coworker of ours. It was awful because not only were they inseparable when they were at the work place but anytime that I did anything with this friend, he was always in tow. He would trade the section that he was in simply to work next to hers, or even trade shifts so that there schedules were never different. He would even weasel his way into girl’s night out. As outsiders looking in, we thought that he was weird, clingy and a little obnoxious! Even worse was that our friend seemed to turn into a different person when she was around him, taking on his annoying personality traits and constantly referring to their inside jokes.
She came into work one day and told us the news while we were in the kitchen that they had broken up. She was greeted by a cheer from everyone and even and some encouragement. I was ecstatic and told her everything that I thought, in no uncertain terms! Loudly boasting and expressing my feelings and how happy the entire staff was that she was done with him. Thinking that I was encouraging her with tales of how everyone cared about her and knew that she could do so much better. An extreme hush came over the entire kitchen as I realized that he was behind me, turns out that he was working that night too… whoops.
Two weeks later they got back together and oddly, she stopped talking to me. Three weeks after that he quit and convinced her to do the same, and I have not spoken to her since. Lesson learned, a good rule is that if I am not a part of the relationship, I keep my opinions to myself unless asked.
In our last twist of fate, we got a call from Stephanie asking for air conditioning. She has been suffering in this heat! Our miracle came on the phone from John and our awesome friends at Cooper Heating & Air and Lennox when they said they would install it for free! Thank you! Now, she races home just to sit in the nice, cool air. Check out the video below!
Today, fate has chosen Sherri. Sherri’s daughter is currently going to college in Florida and she would like to have her come home to Denver to visit for a week. She has been going through a lot of things medically and it’s come to that time where she just needs to see her daughter. She has never been able to get through for our contests or other topics, but today, fate opened up the line and she got through to share her story. Can you help Sherri?

In a twist of fate, I could really use a new car. It just so happens that last night I was listening to some Panic at the Disco (I just saw their show last night at the Ogden) belting it out, when all of a sudden I’m about to turn off the highway and my car is swarmed with smoke. Engine lights are flashing and my car just completely stopped! I was panicked (Oh, the irony). I jumped out of my car, ran about a block to try and avoid the smell, and called for someone to come pick me up. So, it’s like one in the morning and I am stuck on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck to come save me from my misery. I knew my car was ancient and at some point it would be its time to go, but I didn’t expect it to happen so soon. It’s really sad to part ways…I’ve had some great memories with that car. So, it’s a huge stretch, but who wants to help twist my fate?
So, maybe you need some dental work done or you need a cake for your wedding… What do you need?
There’s a number out this morning saying 50% of people under the age of 15 do not care about TV and most, don’t have them at all! Is TV important to you?
Are you a dog owner that disregards the Pick Up After Your Pet law? Well, get ready to pay the poop piper because DNA may now be used to match dogs to excrement abandoned on sidewalks and lawns. Well, to be honest, the desire to pinpoint pet poop is not a national trend. Right now, it`s the brainchild of one disgruntled apartment complex manager in New Hampshire. Tired of residents not picking up after their dogs, the manager has mandated that each dog living in the complex submit to a DNA test.
The DNA results will be kept on file and compared to the DNA found in each new deposit recovered from the property. Once the offending dog and owner are matched with the offending poop, the apartment complex will administer sanctions. While at present jail time is not being considered suitable punishment or breaking the poop law, owners of the identified dog will have to pay a hefty fine.
Princess Diana has returned from the grave on the front cover of Newsweek in a picture that imagines her, and her life, as it might have been had she lived to mark her 50th birthday on Friday. But the picture and story — which speculates that Diana would have twice remarried, used Botox, and been slightly jealous of new daughter-in-law Kate Middleton — provoked mostly howls of disgust as they arrived on U.S. newsstands the same week that Prince William and his new bride begin an official visit to North America. “Shocking, brilliant or just plain cheap?” asked the Los Angeles Times. News blog Mediaite.com called it “disrespectful on so many levels”, while The Atlantic Wire ran the headline “How Creepy is Princess Diana’s Ghost?”. Newsweek editor-in-chief Tina Brown, a Briton who wrote a gossipy 2007 biography about the late princess, imagines that if Diana had not died in a 1997 Paris car crash, she would have moved to New York, remained “great-looking,” been friends with her ex-husband Prince Charles and his new wife (and Diana’s old nemesis) Camilla, and have 10 million followers on Twitter..
