Jill Zarin & Bethenny Frankel ('The Real Housewives of New York'): Bonnie sat down with the West Coast ladies, and now she's going to the other coast to bring you these best friends. They may lead glamorous lives but you'll be surprised by their candor on their pasts.

Hello everyone. Never let the demands of tomorrow interfere with the pleasures and excitement of today. Help me! Please help find sites for: Acai berry euterpe oleracea. I found only this - acai berry capsule. Organic became a hot topic, free of insect killing sprays thought to bring harm to food. The links including link title, description and pagerank icon. Thank you very much :-(. Lamond from Peru.

Hi. To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it. Help me! I find sites on the topic: Acai berry euterpe oleracea. I found only this - acai berry diets. — If you are too fat real or imagined and you are wanting to lose weight you have. Acai is now becoming the berry of choice amongst the celeb elite. Thanks for the help :rolleyes:, Raleigh from Czech.

Jason's tears are obviously a result of a personal problem -his bladders too close to his eyes.We used to call the night before a colonoscopy "The Night of A Thousand Waterfalls". I think that goes to Jason's proposal now.

I am interested in getting the R word tee shirt that John McCinley wore on your show on MOnday. Your show is so wonderful because you are really the embodiment of compassion and kindness, Your sharp yet appropriat sense of humor is vital to your persona, The show is getting better each day . I look forward to watching it on these cold winter days when i am at home with my severly disabled daughter on most days lately. She has respiratory difficulties and misses many school days because of the risk to her health. You are truly a bright spot in the afternoon in dreary new york. I wish you continued success with your endeavors. sincerely, mindy spiritus

I really want to see that cat video again. It shows the cat opening a round doorknob to let the dog inside. Can it be posted?

I happened to be watching the show Monday with guest John McGinley. He is such a nice person and it was great to have him talk about his son. I have a son with down syndrome and he is 2 1/2 yrs old. It's very hard having a child with down syndrome plus he has had 3 heart surgeries. But we can't imagine our lives without him. People need to be more educated about down syndrome and understand what it is. We have 2 other children 8 and 9 yrs old and we have explained to them from the very beginning what down syndrome is. When their friends ask why does he look different they tell them. the explanation they five is he has down syndrome and that means he justs learns a little bit slower than we do. Continue having great guests on your show and when I can fit it into my schedule I will watch your show!

You have a great show and I love your quick wit and sense of humor. Do you have any sisters living out here in Maine?

Seriously, I thought the "Teen Creed" was fantastic. As the father of a twelve year old boy and fifteen year old girl I think it is really something I would love to share with them.

Could you please post it on your website or email it to me? I am not sure how this all works but if there some way to get a copy of it I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!

Mike

I really enjoyed your interview with John McGinley. Can you please let me know where I can purchase a shirt like the one he had on? Love your show!

Thanks,

Loved the show. My kids would roll their eyes every time I would try to educate people about the "R" word. There is too much use of it & they feel it's almost a hopeless cause. Not anymore. So where can we get the t-shits? Thanks

Hi Bonnie!
I have never commented on a show before but the segment that you did with John Mc Ginley made an impact on me. I have vowed to take the "r" word out of my vocabulary. I would like to support this cause and if you could give me any information about the cause ut would be great. Thank you and keep doing a great job, love watching you everyday!

Of all the clips you could choose to post on your site and on youtube.com , I am really surprised you have opted NOT to have the brilliant clip of John McGinley discussing his views on using the "R" word. You could play a part in really making a difference in their cause.

I am ready to send the link to 10's of 1000s of people in my network who I was going to ask to re-send to their networks, and so on. But still today, no clip!

I will buy a copy of the show if you tell me how/where. I just want to help.

The rest of the show is funny. The fluff is cute, but that moment on your show was touching and we ALL could help him get the word OUT!! (yes, that is a play on words)

Please put up a clip of John McGinley, you're still in it.

Thank you,

Connie

I was sooo impressed with John McGinley's work on behalf of Down's children. My kids and I were good friends with a young man who was Down's and the R word was not allowed in our home as they were growing up. I also have many young friends who are affected, I would love to have a shirt, is that possible? HUGS AND BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOURS!!!

Your interview w/ John C. McGinley was so awesome and he is a true advocate for those w/ Downs. I wanted to share the interview w/ a friend. I really wish I had taped it because he truly nailed it when talking about these very "special people" - we could all take a lesson from them.

Thank you for your show - you are a true delight.
Your love for animals is apparent and I so appreciate what you do.


Hi Bonnie,
When you pulled the "Flowbee" out of your gift bag on Monday, March 2nd, I laughed. A past(1994-95)boyfriend used one very successfully. He was always very well groomed. If I was to guess whether or not he still uses it, I would say yes, even though he remarried (you know she might not be very hip to the do-it-yourself feature). I haven't talked to him for a couple years, might just have to pick up the phone.

Who knows,
Christine Draheim

Hi Bonnie.

I love your show. I need to find out were I can purchase a T-shirt like John MC/Ginley was wearing on your March 2 show. I have a very special daughter myself, and would like to help John spread the WORD!

PS. Bonnie, Keep up the great job you are doing, love, love you show.

Elizabeth Krohn , Burnsville, NC.

Hello
I loved the show w/ John McGinley and don't use the r word shirts. Is there a website I can buy one of the shirts please?
Thanks
Jan
Love Bonnie so much. I hope she continues to not say, 'God,' slang. She is so above that

I really appreciated this show. We have 2 sons with Down Syndrome (8yr. old and 9 mo. old) that we adopted. I would adopt more if I had the money and my house was bigger, lol. Some people don't realize the potential these children and adults have. They need to focus on their abilities not their disability!

also looking for the t shirts from the looks of it he should have added that info as many people want to share not only march 31 but every day

I usually tape your show to watch at night after work -- love, love, love your humor and interview style. I love it most when you have guests on who really share something of themselves, especially the people who have "provided the soundtrack for our lives," as you've said yourself.

However, Bonnie... what is with all these dimwitted dips like the "houswives" and others who have NOTHING at all to say,and who model nothing of value in life???? I looked up Monday's comments to see if I'd be alone in this...but I see I'm not.

Don't listen to others telling you that you "need to get a a life" or even to put such dips on the show to get an audience. So NOT true!! Your life, all your fun anecdotes (and your great friends like Don, Holly) are what make the show so fun. You definitely have a life Bonnie! Don't believe otherwise... You have compassion, fun humor, family and animals you love, friends who surround you...

As a single about your age who can easily feel "less than" in our couples world,I understand how you feel... especially since I've always wanted to be married and have kids too. I relate to you and love what YOU bring to the show. So... Bring on the guests who inspire and just talk from the heart, like you do. And dump the brainless bimbos... please. What IS there to talk about beyond what's happening (and even that's a matter of debate.. IS anything happening?)on their brainless shows? They only inspire me to pray (sincerely)that they find something of more value in their own lives...and begin to value themselves more.

As an aside... I laughed myself to tears over your re-enactment last week of your "View" interview. My mouth was agape at the clip you showed of how they treated you. Absolutely uncalled for and insane. If anyone doesn't have a life, it's those women...



Hi Bonnie,

Love you, you are a breath of fresh air each day. I along with everyone else would like to know where to get the R-word shirts. John truly nailed the heart and souls of the Down Syndrome community, my sister Megan is 27 with D.S., she is the most loving person I know and to honor all handicapped persons I would like to get these shirts for my friends and family. Please let us know. Thanks have a great day.
