Thanks Jen! I haven’t sent you one of these in awhile.
I like to send them from time to time, just to make sure that you REALLY know me. Without forwards like these, how would you ever know all the really important things about me, such as what color socks I’m wearing?

Your thoughts on the RW/RR Challenge? I’m hooked, as usual, but annoyed this time around by all of the Fresh Meat people who are now Veterans. Kenny, Evan, Casey, Eric, Evelyn…none of these people ever did an actual season of RW or RR. I remember when the price to get on a challenge show was to be distantly related to Bill Clinton, or to live with a roommate living with & educating people about AIDS, or to have a political opinion yourself…or a band. Whatever happened to Andre’s band Reign Dance or Glenn’s Perch, by the way? I’m showing my age.

It’s funny you mention that – I’ve been having an ongoing conversation about how MTV is not stupid: They know it’s our demographic they’re most likely catching with that particular show. Maybe not exclusively, but it’s fools like us that keep coming back to watch those trainwrecks b/c we *do* remember when Eric Nies was on the very FIRST season of Real World, in like, 1984.
Hook, line and sinker.

I’ll go ahead and jump in here and say I am hooked as well. I always try to catch the challenges. I don’t watch RW or RR anymore, but I love the challenges!! I will also admit that I enjoy Making the Band. Will you still be my friend??

Oooh Making the Band? That’s sliding into my elitist idea of cesspool. Ha.
(But, I’ll always be your friend, ESPECIALLY b/c the Mark referenced above has forever reminded me of a ‘roided version of Matt.)
