Four Presidents And The Contents Of Our 401(k)

October 30, 2008 at 8:45 AM | by | Comments (0)

Even before Halloween, the ladies of "The View" set aside their contemporary differences and were able to get their heads together on a theme: Famous presidents! See if you can guess all five, then read on for the answers.

Okay, from left to right, we've got Whoopi as FDR, Joy as Teddy Roosevelt, Sherri as Abraham Lincoln the penny, Elisabeth as a surprisingly dark-haired Ronald Reagan and Barbara as the father of our country, George Washington. Thomas Jefferson is totes hurt not to be represented.

The election-themed set coupled with the historical leaders is a clever dodge for "The View" to avoid actually talking about the 2008 candidates any more... Or is it? The scariest thing on the talk show Friday might be whose wig falls off first in a potential political tussle.

Dave and Mary's Amazing Race Parlay

November 20, 2006 at 8:00 AM | by | Comments (0)

Perhaps Nice Guys, or in this case, Nice People do finish first.

That's what Amazing Race contestants David and Mary are probably thinking as last week Rosie O'Donnell and the View gifted the ousted duo with a new three-bedroom house and a new car among other gifts, solely because Rosie loved how nice they were to their teammates and other people they encountered on the show. Nice haul, considering David and Mary used to live in a trailer (which Rosie promptly urged them to donate to someone who needs it).

The above clip is long, but things start to get good at the 5:30 mark when Rosie begins showering the couple with compliments, then gifts. Also, we learn that David actually tried out for Survivor first but they instead recommended him for Amazing Race--ouch. Given the number of mining and digging related challenges so far on the race, we'd say Dave ended up on the right show. With the amount of backstabbing Lyn and Karlyn of Team 'Bama are perpetrating, though, maybe a practice round with the Survivors would've come in handy.
