Doggone it, people, stop posting links if you don't want me to look at them! My leaky old mind tends to retain impressions more than actual facts. (Mike really was Robert, see?) OK, Missi, if no one else remembers anything, I'll disappear for a week and see what I can find!

I know that I am more than a few hours late on this but I also remember it being said that she recently moved. I THINK it was the mother of Hidey's grandbaby that said this. Maybe one of the ladies that talked to her can verify this. If I didn't have to go to work I would try to find it in one of the previous threads.

Look at Heidi now, here she comes
Wearin' her wig, hat and shades to match
She's drinkin’ diet Coke and she makes us feel SNATT
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got handcuffs on her wrists, now, and everything
She's the devil with the red dress, red dress, red dress,
Devil with the red dress on

Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the lying-ist liar alive
She walks real cool, thinks she can’t be caught
She's got such good lies, for 60 bucks they were bought
Lesya was skinny, but Kimmer’s fat
She's a real scam artist but she thinks she’s all that
She's the devil with the red dress, red dress, red dress,
Devil with the red dress on
Devil with the red dress, red dress, red dress,
Devil with the red dress on

Good golly, Miss….
You all are doing me in. I'll never hear this song the right way again. Years (over 20 years) ago my friend's young daughter was singing "Every time you go away" by Paul Young and she thought it was every time you go away you take a piece of meat with you. I've never heard that song the right way since.

I remember something like this too but it was more than weeks ago. It was when the family was first contacted. I think it was posted here. Which thread were we in then? I think the info came from the ex-girlfriend of the oldest son. I'm not positive, though.

I wonder if superheros or captains will be around tonight or in a day or so? Below are all posts from recent comments in a thread to ask Dr. Mark about hair loss. They appear in the order that they were posted in the thread.
Maybe Kimmer is feeling the pressure or maybe Dr. Mark got his hand slapped for his internet postings and Kimmer is trying to set a firm example in order to get her KK members in line. But it backfired I believe....bawhahahaaha



Below is another member jumping in to soothe Kimmer or earn brownie points, since Wanda pretty much told Kimmer that no one asked her a question! Wanda girl you rawk! I actually am giddy with anticipation!.


Hey, Kimmer just when you thought you could get up on your high horse again, it looks like Wanda kicked you off it, and put you in your place!
Wanda kicked butt!!! Bahahahhahaaa!!! SLAPDOWN!

Tippy, if you are reading this I hope you have a backup plan, because I think Kimmer is starting to get a little frazzled with having to pretend to be "just one of the gals on the diet". She is ready to reclaim her throne so I hope you didn't get too comfortable there TT.
Now, would be the time to be looking at your options.
"nutritionalist", "bobble head doll"(think M&J show), "artical editor", "fake fund-raiser organizer".....
LOL!
I think K/H is feeling the heat of prosecution. First TT says on national TV that there is no doctor on the site after recently introducing Dr. Mark to the members. Hmmmm, I wonder how Dr. Mark felt about TT making that claim on TV. I wonder how the members felt about that after the big doc intro and then posting questions to the site doctor they're more than aware of having on the site. Now Heidi is covering her butt because they're seeking medical advice from the so called doc that they said they don't have. Remember when all they needed for medical advice was Kimmer/Heidi? My, how things change. How are they going to explain their way out of all this to their members without the help of the ban button? How are they going to explain all this in court?
Tangled web weaving must be an exhausting job. I hope it has a bright future. A bright orange jumpsuit future. heh

She's probably running out of the cash needed to pay the (isn't-a-real?) doctor... and the sickly tech guys (if they even exist).... and all the other adminions for their official adminion duties.

I look to see less official activity by admins in the coming weeks... unless they're very generous with their donation of unpaid time to Kimkins. Besides that, she has to keep the Kimkins web-host or server or whatever it is, paid (to borrow Heidi's line, "I'm not a tech person"... and in my case, it's really true!).

And don't forget that during all of this, Heidi still has to keep her own attorney paid... "nice guy" that he may be, I doubt he's going to donate much unpaid time to Heidi/Kimkins.

Plus she needs to keep food on the table for her and Brandon.... (although her food costs may have dropped a tad since she's supposedly attempting to actually do her own diet).... and she has to pay the lights/utilities for that house of hers, etc etc. (And don't forget cat food, she has to keep her "cattiness" well-nourished).

But anyway, this one thing I do know: ample operating cash is the absolute life-blood of any business, no matter what type and no matter what size. And the judge, by freezing most of Heidi's assets, just put a serious (and probably unexpected) crimp in Heidi's operating cash.

Here's where I think Heidi failed (but it will probably be a while before she really figures it out):

If she truly understood business.... and wanted her Kimkins to survive (to provide a financial future and keep the cash coming in, you know?).... she would have understood that the stupidest thing she could have done was sink that much of her ready cash into a house as she was staring down a lawsuit designed to bring Kimkins down.

What she should have done was hang on to all that cash, using it to fortify her "war-chest" to fight the lawsuit and win. She should have tried to neutralize the lawsuit early on by "coming clean" months ago, using much of that cash to provide refunds to all of us "negative Nancys", get rid of us, change the TOS and and the business structure to one that was legitimate and truly provided immunity, using some of that cash to finance a hefty business liability insurance policy to protect herself in future.... and then start all over with a clean slate. There would have been plenty of time to buy a nice house after getting rid of us and/or winning the lawsuit... as the memberships started pouring in from the "legitimization" a lawsuit neutralization/win would have provided the Kimkins business.

Everything she has done business-wise since this started has been amateurish, reactive, and too-little-too-late. And paying cash to buy the house is another example.... and a major blunder on Heidi's part. By doing so, she probably placed herself in an ever-tightening financial and business straight-jacket.... leaving herself very little room to maneuver. Way to go Kimmer! Good job!

JMHO

I wonder what happened to the bariatric specialist they were getting? If Kimmer said not to ask for medical advice on a website, I guess they must be re-thinking that invitation to Dr. Specialier-than-Mark? Or the invitation was flatly rejected. Or it was all a BIG FAT LIE!

If it wasn't a lie and the Dr. Specialier-than-Mark (LOL! I love that!) was watching the show and basing her decision on what she saw there then I suspect the answer was an ear shattering "NO!!!" followed by running like the wind away from Kimkins. Maybe I'm wrong and she didn't run. Perhaps she just stood in place, LHAO.

Perhaps it's small by California standards, but it's bigger and better equipped than mine is!

But as someone else pointed out, at least I get to keep mine.

I don't think that's her stuff in the pictures! Aren't they realty pictures, taken while the house was on the market still?

Her small kitchen is bigger and brighter than mine, and the house has twice the square footage of mine. It's all relative, I guess! I wouldn't ever choose to live in a place where a place like that costs $400K, though - where I am, I could buy a mansion for that price!

Excellent analysis!

I was thinking about this the other night. Heidi could have continued to rake in millions, if she had just thought like a business person instead of a criminal.

On our side, she continues to do it, which should make shutting her down much easier.

Dr. Specialier-than-Mark - I just love that phrase!

As the TV doc said, "No self-respecting doctor would be associated with Kimkins" (or words to that effect)

Their pregnant daughter and they lived off the $$ of 5 foster kids one of which I was adopting. What I found in that foster home (I stayed there 2 days and one night) was incredible. 3 of these kids had NG tubes (nasogastric tube) and one had a "belly button" feeding tube. When it was time to eat...the mother made a huge pot of plain Gerber baby cereal made with water and the feeding began. I asked her if she fed them anything other than cereal and she said "Its fortified." HUH? The kids were lined up on the floor, she and her husband would push food in as fast as it would go. It gave new meaning to the word bolus. No burping, no clean up, the kids were then put back in their rooms in the cribs. Not once in 24 hrs did I see any of them out in the light of day other than feeding. Even diapers were done in the cribs. My little fellow was the only one who wasnt tube fed, and she fed him with him lying flat on his back on the floor between her feet. After I came home I called and reported this foster family and you know what the social worker said? "We have no other place to put these kids." Ive been a foster parent and have 2 adopted. And let me tell you, there are many many GOOD foster parents out there but unfortunately a small number are in it for the money. The state pays you if you adopt a disabled kid, even after they reach adulthood and I wonder if that is why Heidi wanted to adopt that one boy?

This story made me cry. A perfect example of why I'm so grateful we have a free press in this country. As soon as social services said that - call the media. I know that was long ago and that you were from another state and all, and that things were different back then. Please know I'm not blaming you or faulting you in any way!

I hope those people rot in one of those cribs they confined those children to.

And hopefully the state did NOT give that child to Hidey. She is a con, a fraud and a criminal. God, please protect children from her grasp.

That house would sell for maybe $150,000 where I live. Or less! We need basements here in tornado country. It looks like a good starter house neighborhood we see here. As long as the crime is low, I would be happy, I guess.
