Deal or No Deal

Just to update previous posts...
Allie, the CF dbl lung transplant, on Deal or No Deal ended up walking with $124,000. I heard she's giving some to the CF Foundation, but not sure how much.

Congrats to Allie!

YES she did a great job!! To bad she didnt go all the way for her $300,000 but 124 is plenty in all of our shoes!!! CONGRATS and hopefully she has fun at her wedding reception/new lung party... she didnt get to have a reception due to being to sick when she got married last year so thats something she is going to do!!

YEAH!!!! I was so excited when I saw this! Did anyone actually hear her say she was giving any of the money to CF? I never actually heard that. Also, I found myself thinking what a nice gesture it would be if "deal or no deal" found out she was giving the money to charity, to match her gift! Hmmm.... wonder why THAT didn't happen?!? I just thought it would be a really nice thing for them to do since she's probably the first one going to give some of the money away to help others. Usually, its just celebs that give away winnings. Good for her if she's giving some of it!

Tonight's episode showed Allie presenting a check for $56,000 to Special Olympics. She was as good as her word!

HAHAH if the chick who won had CF, and presented the winning check to the special olympics, and not CF, that is sooooooo F'ing awesome. Good for her, in the aspect that she made everyone think she was going to do something in particular just to her condition. In all seriousness, i'd personally give my winnings to the disease that I am afflicted with, just because I have talked to so many and am empathic towards the problems. But I could just as easily donate it towards an environmental fund, or some other disease like pediatric cancer that I feel is real bad. Someone/something is being helped, so who cares.

Why is everyone sho surprised? Did she actually say it would go towards the benefit of CF whether it be CFF or something else? Are you surprised because of the fact that her tx & CF were presented makiing it seem like its an "obvious" cause? Just curious.....I can only by what people tell me since I didnt watch the episode nor do I watch the show!

Did anyone else see her pass a check over to the Special Olympics?

I would have been on the show with a shaved head, doc martin boots, and a national socialist jacket, and then when I won give the check to the NAACP. That would have been a good laugh.

Then when everyone was like OMG WTF?!? I'd start singing:


Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red
And what the hell is on Joey's head

And this is where I grew up
I think the prison outa fix it up
I never knew we'd ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out

And this is where I went to school
Most of the time I had better things to do
Criminal records said I've broken twice
I must have done it half a dozen times

I wonder if its too late
Should i go back and try to graduate
Last man and now that it was back then
If I was them I woulndnt let me in

Oh oh oh
Oh god I

Every memory of looking out the back door
I have the photo that was printed on my bedroom door
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye

We used to listen to the radio
And sing along with every song we know
We said someday wed find out how if feels
To sing to more than just the steering wheel

Kim's the first girl I kissed
I was so nervous that I nearly missed
She's had a couple of kids since then
I haven't seen her since god knows when

Oh oh oh
Oh god I

Every memory of looking out the back door
I have the photo that was printed on my bedroom door
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

I miss that town
I cannot believe it
So hard to stay
So hard to leave it

If I could I relive those days
I know the one that would never change

Every memory of looking out the back door
I have the photo that was printed on my bedroom door
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
Its time to say, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye

Look at this photograph
Everytime I do it makes me laugh
Everytime I do it makes me

Then I'd have to go with this:


what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up
and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

there's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
everything she does is beautiful
everything she does is right

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive

WOW! That took you a long time to post, eh Sean? Thanks, though! I'm one who often mis-hears the lyrics, so it was REALLY cool to read....

I was watching that episode, and thought the lady who won that particular night was giving her money to Special Olympics. Hmmmm.... I'm confused. (nothing new, really)
