"Did I say it is strange to want what is best for your kids? I don't think so! I only said that I do not feel sorry for David and Mary, and I don't, as I feel they are very lucky that a celebrity like Rosie gave them a house and a car. You have to admit that is a little out of the ordinary and does not happen to most average american couples very often. If every deserving, hard working couple in America got that kind of help, I am sure we all would be very grateful for the help, and I hope these two are, also. I don't feel that I said anything derogative about these two and I don't recall mentioning their children, one way or another. And I do hope that they put the best interest of their children above all else! And did I say that they do not love each other? Again, I think not! I did not question nor even mention their relationship with each other. Somehow or other you completely misconstrued my comments. Go back and reread my letter. And I would never kid you, believe me!

"Thank you, Recycle, for clearing it up. I did wonder how your comment pertained to what I had originally written, but since the Website put it in my "box" I assumed you were referring to my comment. Sorry for the mix-up. Mary and David were not my favorite team, mainly because of Mary, she just did not appeal to me personally, but I would not say anything bad about her as a person, in every day life and her relationships with her friends and neighbors, she may be very likeable, but she did not come over as likeable at all to me, but that is just me, others may have loved her. Her husband, on the other hand, was very, very likeable, I would not mind seeing him on another Amazing Race, without Mary, which is impossible since they are married to each other. But I don't want to see her face again! She really needs to have her teeth cleaned, maybe she has by now.

"Little jealous are we???? Do you know for sure about the Rosie O'Donnell thing or are you just repeating gossip. So what if it IS true??? Do you just begrudge people having something because you want it all for yourself???"

"What a stupid answer your "Reply " is! Yes, I am a 70 year old "spoiled brat." I wish!!!!!!!! No, I was never a spoiled brat, not even when I was a child and lived with my very poor parents and I was the oldest of eight children back when America was just beginning to recover from the depression, so there was every opportunity to be spoiled in that era. You are so stupid yourself, and have to be very young which is no crime in itself, but to write such a shallow reply to something you evidently don't have the brains to even understand shows how very unintelligent you are.
