Dog The Bounty Hunter – Charging Fans to Comment?

I meant to comment on this a while back when I first discovered it as I find this quite odd…

I was and I suppose I still am a dedicated fan of Dog The Bounty and Crew.  However, it disturbs me that in order to comment on the “Official Dog The Bounty Hunter website” one needs to join a fee-based service – A Fan Club. 

Why on earth would they set that up that way, especially when they need all the support they can get to get the show reinstated.

This is odd to me as I do not believe that Dog and Beth are money hungry as they seem to be all about giving back and making the world a better place.  I have never seen a celebrity website before where one had to pay to comment.  What’s up with this!  To me… it felt like a slap in the face!

I Am NOT A Paper Card – Roz On eCards vs Paper Greetings

A while back I set up a Blog at:

I Am NOT A Paper Card
http://www.IAmNOTAPaperCard.com.

I feel very strongly about eCards and their worth, so to me… The motivating factor was to demonstrate how much more powerful eCards are in relation to Paper Greetings and the things one can do with eCards vs Paper Greetings.

Check it out.

Dog The Bounty Hunter – Where Are They Now?

This still disturbs me.  How do things get so blown out of proportion.  How does a successful guy like Dwaine “Dog” Chapman have the rug pulled from under him because of a disloyal son.  Is there anyone of us who has never said something in a private conversation that they would not want mentioned publicly?  I think not!

We were talking about this at the Thanksgiving Day table.  Some of the people there are fans, but were unaware of the latest goings on.  They were floored when they heard Tucker turned his father in to the Enquirer.  They were more concerned with the family disloyalty than the reason for all the ruckus.  This says something in my book!

I’ll tell you this… A&E better bring Dog back soon or they will lose all their loyal fans.  They keep playing the same stuff over and over and over and over again!

I hear Imus is back at work, or going back!

Save Dog The Bounty Hunter – Larry King Follow-Up

Visit http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/larry.king.live/ and help save Dog Chapt’s Job at A&E.

I just finished watching Larry King’s interview with Dwaine “Dog” Chapman.

While I know Dog is not in a good place right now, I know in my heart that this incident will only make him a better person.

He shared that he will be working with Tony Robbins and others.  Tony is my hero, so I know the miracles he can accomplish.

Tony Robbins also believes in forgiveness and his statement that turned my life around about five years ago was: “Your past IS NOT your future!” 

Until I heard Anthony Robbins say: “Your past IS NOT your future” I believed I was a product of where I came from. This is true, our past does play a big part in where we came from, but it DOES NOT have to be a negative!  We learn from our mistakes and we learn from the mistakes of others whose influence may have affected us, like our parents.

Before hearing Tony’s words I thought and felt I was unworthy and would always be unsuccessful because that is what my parents told me day in and day out until they died. It is NOT true!

I also wrote in my prior entry I felt Tucker Chapman selling out his father by selling a taped phone conversation to the Enquirer was “unforgivable!” While I still feel that way my heart is softening after hearing Dog’s take on this. (paraphrasing Dwaine Dog Chapman) He is my son, I can’t hate him, I love him, I am just disappointed!  Hearing that I thought, “wouldn’t I have wanted my parents to love me and not throw me out of the family if I did wrong!” The thing is with my family, I did NOT do wrong and they still did not treat me like they should have as my parents.  But I learned late in life:  “It was them and NOT me!”

Tony Robbins put me on the road of gratefulness and forgiveness.  So maybe I need to work on my forgiveness in this issue!  At this moment I am finding that hard to do as I really feel that Tucker was wrong.  It is underhanded, dishonest and in the end he will always be remembered as the son who tried to bring his father down for a measly $15,000.  Not that I am saying he should have, but if Tucker had the intelligence he thought he did, he could have commanded a whole lot more than the $15,000 he got!  That in itself shows his intelligence or shall we say ignorance.

It is NOT all about the money!  Integrity, honesty and goodness speak a whole lot louder.

Save Dwaine “Dog” Chapman – Sign Petition to Send to A&E

Having to watch what I write here will be the real trick.  I have very definite feelings about this and to me it is ridiculous how people are always ready to jump on those who become the underdog (pardon the pun) in any given situation.

“I am not” condoning the N-word, however, whatever drove Dog to say it was in a PRIVATE conversation with his son Tucker Chapman.  I DID hear the entire five-minute tape that was posted on the web.  Needless to day it was NOT what has been quoted all over the place.

If I wrote what was said in my home growing up what Dog said would pale in content.  My parents are both dead now and I choose to NOT go back down memory lane. 

Any conversation can be edited and/or taken out of context and turn the entire conversation around to mean something completely different.

In the end, what I will remember about this is “a son that sold out his father and family for $15,000.”  There are some things in life that are unforgivable – to me – Tucker Chapman selling out his father (Dog the Bounty Hunter) for $15,000 is one of them!

Tucker and the girlfriend are jealous they can’t get a piece of the pie and chose to make sure no one had a piece of it either.  Even Tucker’s brothers and sisters.

The biggest laugh will be when the girlfriend leaves him and he has no family or girlfriend and only the memory of the despicable thing he did! 

However, in the end Dog will prevail and Tucker will probably wind up back in jail where he belongs for taping and selling the conversation in the first place.  Something about that has to be illegal!
