Demeaning people seems to be a part of this show. Leering is more subjective. I don't think there is anything wrong with a man looking at a woman or a woman looking at a man provided it doesn't turn into leering. It's not appropriate office behavior though.

That too, Jimmer. Trump slobbering all over the celebrities he is pretending he might hire if he were hiring celebrities, which he is not, is NOT appropriate business conduct, and therefore we might conclude he either acts like or actually IS a bad word with a bad adjective in front of it.

And you folks had to go change the rules just when I am perfecting the old ones. Sigh ...

Rule Change ...

But if we are going to discuss it in any further posts let's use that thread and not The Apprentice. Thanks :-)

Did anybody else think that ACN phone sort of looked like a 1980's mobile phone that weighed a hundred pounds and you carried it out to your car and plugged it into the cigarette lighter and it was just wonderful at the time? I mean, like ... you could make PHONE CALLS from your CAR!!! Wowsa!

I was an ACN rep years ago and I must say that company was/is great! I have met Greg many times and I have always admired him and loved his great spirit. ACN isn't just about selling a phone. They have phone service, etc. We still have ACN as our land line carrier.

I sold some of the first generation "mobile" phones. You had a brick to talk into and you had to carry the rest of the thing around in a briefcase. Gak, that was a long time ago! (And I remember how cool it was to use the phone at the time, too!)

My dad has had a phone in his car since they first started making them. The first couple were hardwired into the car and a party line! LOL This was in the middle 60's.

The phone is very light and folds up for travel. If you travel anywhere in the world and plug into any highspeed Internet, it's a local call for anyone who calls you from back home and free for you to call anyone in North America from wherever you are located. You can find out about the many features at the website I posted. Pamy is right, ACN is a great company and cover all services, local, long distance, cell phones, Internet, home security, satellite tv, etc.

Okay, Spelll, you sold one to me. Except I am not a phone person.

Juju can't have a video phone because she is a figment of our imaginations.

Does that mean that if you had a video convo with Juju, there's be nothing there? :-)

Isn't the phone kind of useless unless the people you call have one too?

Interesting how everyone is split between liking Melissa/Joan and liking Claudia... I am on the Melissa/Joan team all the way! I LOVE Joan and Melissa and think they are great. I think teams NEED someone to take charge and that's exactly what they do. I hope Melissa is the PM on the next challenge.

I thought Claudia was very mean to Melissa, who did apologize for overstepping her boundaries, and brought the whole awful show together in the end. Imagine if she hadn't? It would've been an even worse loss!

Joan is just amazing - "she's a musher!" lmao... I love how she loves everyone but is strong and smart and so HILLARIOUS! She's just the best...

Other than the video, the phone operates like a normal phone with all the regular stuff like call waiting, call display, conference calling, video message (if you call someone without a video phone you can send them a video message to their email), call forwarding, call find (program up to 5 numbers so the phone can search for you at these numbers), 16 features including digital photo frame, video capture, etc all of which are built into the phone... no extra cost. So definitely not useless but greatly enhanced by the other person having an ACN video phone too. We use ours everyday. You can talk with anyone on the phone and your mind automatically guesses what gestures they make or how they are expressing their words but when you can see them there is no doubt about it and it does indeed enhance your conversation. Now of course to me there is something missing in conversation when I use a regular phone.

I thought we were figments of Juju's imagination, not the other way around.

Thanks for the info, Spell. I guess I used the wrong word when I said, "useless". I was only referring to the video option. Of course it has uses, and sounds like it has all the bells and whistles.

It can be fun too like when your significant other is... ah... somewhere else and phoning home on another video phone. :-)

i am sorry I just thought it was pathetically sad when Melissa nudged her mother to speak up for her. I would have blown it at that point. There is a huge power team there and it rolls over everyone else. I never could stand either of them.

Kellee, when I read that Melissa did that, was when I went and erased Sunday's episode. That, and reading about Trump's figurative drooling over young pretty women, and I've decided that I'm not going to watch this show this season. I'll check in here to see who's won what tasks, but mostly only because I'm curious as to who wins.
