Although I believe Geraldo came straight from Satan's loins.....I may have to check this out.

Gotcha! And let me guess...you're gonna wear either a dark turquoise or a dark blue top...with a pair of those big round earrings? That's the signature Alison Rosen look right there. Can you throw us a curveball and make it red? I like red.

*If Alison is attracted to Jerry Rivers...I mean Geraldo Rivera she'll wear those silver honeycomb earrings...and if she's really attracted to him she probably won't even throw a chair at his nose like I suggested :(

Ah fuck..."Octo-mom," "Octo-dad," "Octo-sperm donor" - this shit has gone too far and needs to end already. Obviously this whole scheme was a publicity stunt and unfortunately the public bit on it and gave that woman the attention she wanted.

I saw the disgust on your face when homie G mispronounced your last name. The amount of time allotted to you and not allowing you to give a formal goodbye was a little disrespectful in my opinion.

On another note...your hair looks a little different tonight. It looks all soft, smooth, and a little shiny.

I missed it! Did G man totally dis our Alison? I knew his ego couldn't handle another egomaniac on the same screen! Alison needs her own show so she can invite Geraldo on, and call him "Gerry."

How exactly, does one mispronounce Rosen? It's like mispronouncing Jones or Smith.

For those who didn't see it, Geraldo was in Florida, so there wasn't the in-studio connection happening, but Alison was good in the all too brief segment. A voice of reason, while who knows what Geraldo thinks. He doesn't seem to be able to make up his mind when to be outraged, or not.

But I've got a pet peeve about people who don't get others' names right. I used to produce a tv show for a rinky dink local station, (it's a good station, I just don't want to come off like I think I'm a big shot,) but practically to the exclusion of all else, I made sure to ask for the proper pronunciations beforehand. It's the most basic consideration in showing people proper respect.

Geraldo deserves a pie in the face. Well, he always deserved that, but especially now.

Nothing serious. The pie in the puss will do. See Ali? All that recent baking will come in handy!

(And yes, I used a pet name for Alison. I'm coming along, little by little.)
