Howard...it's really better if you go back and read the old posts, and I think most of your questions will be answered....even the kind of "strange" questions. (i.e Does Mary Beth Roe know any Jewish people?)

Good luck...you'll have fun looking through the thread archives

I saw Steve Bryant hawking on an infomercial for Ron Popiel's "Easy Bake Oven"...I used to like him, but he's too old for the "in" crowd at the Q now.

Hosts earn $750,000 annually. Considering what they get in grief from posters like yourself, they're due every dollar of it.

The "relationship" between HSN and QVC is stronger than ever. Did you hear that they are becoming engaged????? A wedding is planned for November and it's said that the most CURIOUS of posters here will get invitations. Looks like you're in, "Howard"!!

Now, regarding Lisa Robbelson: You're TOTALLY right about "her big high forehead, slanty eyes, bad teeth" she's a grotesque dog...but now that YOU'VE shared your expert opinion, you can't any longer post: 'Why does EVERYONE say/think Lisa is so pretty?' "Everyone" is just a huge, million-strong, group of jerks...minus you, naturally.

What, exactly, do you mean by "Whatever to my buddy Steve Bryant?" How does one reply to that? Clarify, please; we're waiting with baited breath.

Why don't you start a poll regarding David Venable's sexual orientation? It would be SO reassuring to know that this debate would FINALLY be settled. Such a unique and innovative prospect.

While we're on the subject of polls, why don't you stay with that concept and thread a poll offering replies from Jewish people who know Mary Beth Roe? You COULD expand it, and allow responses from people who know people who are Jewish and know Mary Beth, but that might not be valid. You'd want only valid, documentable results, of course.

Howard, your question about having to pay shipping and handling is one about which I contacted QVC directly. They explained that, since they have only so many employees, they've had to discontinue their policy of transporting orders to respective recipients by way of employee vehicles. It didn't leave enough time for their products to be COMPREHENSIVELY presented and properly handled. (Not many viewers know this, but the hosts delivered packages after their air-time, as well!) So, all in all, the S&H just HAD to be tacked onto the price.

Hi OC,

I could not pass up responding to this Howard "person." I seldom disagree with you, but I need to make a few corrections to your post:

l. Some hosts, like Lisa Robbelson and David V. make $1,000,000, as they have gained so much attention on this BB.

3. I think Howard has an imaginary friend, as we did as children, only he is Steve Bryant. Perhaps he fantasized about having Steve as a friend while Steve was still on air. How sad it did not work out!

4. Why doesn't Howard simply email David V. and ask about his sexual orientation since that seems to be another fantasy of his? I am sure David would hit "delete" as he likely does with such emails.

5. The latest Gallup Poll on favorite QVC Hosts used religious orientation as one of their variables. Mary Beth was #1 among Christians and Jewish people.

6. OC, I thought you knew that small elves were on lease from Santa Claus to QVC to hand deliver packages at no cost, simply from tne charity of Santa and Mrs. Claus. However, as QVC grew, this service had to replaced with standard S/H.

7. Regarding the relationship between QVC and HSN; they are not engaged as each is already married; they are having a clandestine affair - so shhhhhhhhhhhh!! Don't tell.

Have a great day!! I am personally going poll hunting today!!!

Cas,

You crack me up!!!! You definitely passed this "test" with an A+, or as Lisa R. would say, "9.5 on technical skill."

OC started this saga and I could not resist participating. Your comments were hysterical.

We need Yankee, Curvigirl, and SBTZMom to "play" with us on this one if they have time, so we can get this BB rocking again!!!! I don't know if HHIGirl wants to play, but if so, I would love to read her humor as well!!

ok, astute. if nothing more, i'm a player. (ask QRude)

How much do hosts earn a year ?
only the IRS knows for sure.

What is the relationship between HSN and QVC?
purely platonic, unless you ask the posters on the bb.

Why does everyone say/think Lisa Robinson is so pretty?
because we have eyes!
Take a close look,,, big high forehead, slanty eyes, bad teeth.
How is that considered pretty ?
i should be so ugly, howard. and a panel of judges in tennessee said you're an obtusely farsighted nudnick. (can't pass up a chance to say 'nick'...it's like 'spooie')

Whatever to my buddy Steve Bryant ?
if Steve Bryant is your buddy, that clears up a lot!

Is Dave Venable gay?
no, he's just happy to be there.

Does Mary Beth Roe know any Jewish people?
does howard know any lobotomists?

Why is shipping and handling extra? - why not make it part of the price afterall, most times, you MUST pay it.
how do you not tip over when you're creating these idiotic polls?

sorry to disappoint you, astute, but from here on out, as far as i'm concerned, howard the troll doesn't exist.

Yankee,

Thank you playing!!! As always, I LOL at your comments. I am with you, that going forward Howard does not exist! After all, as card carrying members of S.A.G., this thread is not an effective use of our time!! LOL

QUESTION: How much do hosts earn a year ?
My guess is 100K a year plus a sales bonus.

ANSWER: It depends on how fast they talk, i.e., words/minute, with bonus pay for the words "phenomenal" and "particular." (Bob Bowersox, however, is fined a nickel each time he utters LITrilly.)

***

QUESTION: What is the relationship between HSN and QVC?
I think they are owned by the same parent company.

ANSWER: They used to date in high school, but then there was that awful pregnancy scare and their parents wouldn't let them see each other any more.

***

QUESTION: Why does everyone say/think Lisa Robinson is so pretty?
Take a close look,,, big high forehead, slanty eyes, bad teeth.
How is that considered pretty ?

ANSWER: Because QVC does not yet sell SPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAMSPAM eyewear and until that happens none of us will be able to see her for the homely dog she is.

***

QUESTION: Whatever to my buddy Steve Bryant ?

ANSWER: Apparently he changed his name to Howard and went into the polling business.

***

QUESTION: Is Dave Venable gay?

ANSWER: Why don't you ask him out and see what he says? On the other hand, never mind. He'd probably say no either way, so it would remain a mystery.

***

QUESTION: Does Mary Beth Roe know any Jewish people?

ANSWER: No, when she's not on the air working with a hand-selected Presbyterian crew, she lives cloistured in a nunnery on the Pennsylvania hillside.

***

QUESTION: Why is shipping and handling extra? - why not make it part of the price afterall, most times, you MUST pay it.

ANSWER: Because nobody in their right mind would spend $40 on an 8" cheesecake.

LOL Curvi! For some reason the word nunnery cracked me up!


And now I'm picturing Mary Beth Roe in a habit. Hmmmmm. :P

OK...I'll play too:

What is the relationship between HSN and QVC? I think they are owned by the same parent company.
Yes Howard, they actually had the same parents, but tragically, were separated at birth by a mean CEO.

Why does everyone say/think Lisa Robinson is so pretty? Take a close look... big high forehead, slanty eyes, bad teeth. How is that considered pretty ?
Now you've done it Howard....I'm going to go have my forehead lowered, my eyes rounded out, and my teeth fixed, so that you will find me irresistable, and I will meet your standards for beauty...after all...we all know that beauty is not more than skin deep...geeesh!


Whatever to my buddy Steve Bryant ?
Have you looked in your boxer shorts????


Is Dave Venable gay?
I'd say he's fairly happy, so the answer is yes.

Does Mary Beth Roe know any Jewish people?
No...everyone knows that Jewish people are not involved at all in the entertainment or retail industries...silly boy!

Why is shipping and handling extra? - why not make it part of the price afterall, most times, you MUST pay it.
We all know that shipping and handling are actually not valid charges...it's just something QVC does to alienate the consumers so we won't shop there any more!

I can only stay a little bit, but I couldn't resist to post here.

How much do hosts earn a year ?
They have to pay QVC to be a host.

What is the relationship between HSN and QVC?
They have been seperated for fifteen years now. QVC couldn't stand it and moved up north to Pennsylvania.

Why does everyone say/think Lisa Robinson is so pretty?
Take a close look,,, big high forehead, slanty eyes, bad teeth.
How is that considered pretty ?
Eh, what's up doc? You didn't mention the ears and the twitching whiskers.

Is Dave Venable gay?
Why? Are you his secret lover?

Whatever to my buddy Steve Bryant ?
He left QVC because he could'nt take the tourture of working with the man that is seeing his ex.

Does Mary Beth Roe know any Jewish people?
No, Mary Beth doesn't know Joan Rivers at all. Joan always has a stunt double come on during her shows that Mary Beth hosts.

Why is shipping and handling extra? - why not make it part of the price afterall, most times, you MUST pay it.
Oh, yes it is seperate. If you want to go to Studio Park and get your purchases you can. Being in CA, I usually only make the trip once a month, since I don't pay the shipping and handeling. The UPS man is not welcome here.

Well, guys and gals, I only got to go over the posts that followed my lead after midnight. Good thing, 'cuz my hubby had spirited himself off to sleepyland, down the hallway far enough not to hear my GUFFAWS and my YUKKING and my HOOTS & HOLLERS!!!!!!

It took me a long time to re-read all the posts carefully after I'd already nearly thrown up laughing by just skimming them!

I was gonna pick out some of my favorites....but there are TOO MANY "good ones" from your wildly-typing fingertips. Clever says as clever does.

Why are we devoting all of our efforts at humor writing to this bb? Is there not some grand, anonymously-monitored scouting agency that is searching for the "American Idol" of posters? Auditions should be eliminated....all of our best stuff is already right here in Trevor's vault. Just let 'em at it! We can all cheer each other on as we watch others in our league drop off one by one by one. The winner will go home with one million Q-dollars to spend at the Q, the honor of script writing for the hosts (just think of all those "annoying phrases" WE can squelch!), dinner ("and" ?) with their favorite host, the "Ronco Troll Buster" (batteries included) for unlimited uses at TVTalkshows.com, AND an unprecedented ADDITIONAL 18 HOURS in each and every day, for adequate time for posting!!!!!

Oh, forget it. Who needs all that special attention, anyway? We've still got each other. No pressure, either. Let's just keep laughin'.
