So much for her caring about the weak and disheartened with no "home" to go to.

Just another person out to make a buck

Do you know what Boxing day means, Honey? The English used to "box up" the remains of their Xmas cheer, including small gifts for the less fortunate. From that has come the Boxing Day sales in Canada, at any rate, the day after Xmas.I'll bet you were thinking of the pugilistic efforts of some holiday shoppers to get that last bargain on the shelves. Nope, originally it was philanthropic, not misanthropic!

Apparently, I don't understand the word 'public'. I thought LCF was a public board because it was free and open to read without membership. I thought a 'private' board was one you either paid a membership fee or had to be invited. Unless they're 'going public' as in selling stock? Um..

Nady...I think "public" means that you don't have to go through the interview process to get into Camp. You just pay your money and she lets you in..

Hey, where do I sign up?? I loved your video, made me wish I hadn't already sent in my affidavit so I could follow along and do it the M&M way.

From what I heard, yes she has one and is itching to use it. She can't wait for the "haters" to pay their $20 to come and create havoc then she's gonna ban em.

That was the plan before, according to the inside scooper that had tipped me off the website being in the works and then TT partnering with Brian & Heather.

Yep, I got the jest of the holiday, but the name was the fitting part, used in the context of TT making it banning day instead. Besides, don't most Canadians come to the states for the crazy after holiday shopping anyway? I agree that shopping after the holidays can be like entering into a boxing ring.

I think Brian and Heather or Brian is doing the puter stuff..and Tippy is the Headmistress..(which doesn't really sound like a camp..more like a boarding school). Camp Director would be a more appropriate term...(that will be $5.00 for that consultation)..

Ok, fess up, how many of you negative nancy's are chomping at the bit and lining up to pay your $20 to go harass those poor refugees?

In all honesty I think they are going to be really disappointed when no one cares enough to show up to crash their party.

For example, I went back over the skin care thread today and saw that she was continually recommending harmful practices, such as starting off with the very strongest levels of Retin-A, virtually ensuring skin burns. Even though it is KNOWN that more is not better with Retin-A, she continually recommended using it TWICE as often as recommended, saying "twice the benefits!" Unbelievable.

I read another debate I had with her where she advocated a dangerous WATER FAST even though it was demonstrated to her that a FAT FAST was much more effective without the dangerous side effects. This was her MO, arbitrarily recommend the most dangerous path and then mock and ridicule any dissenters as "wimps" or put them down as someone who "blindly" believes any old expert.

She did this quite often, give dreadful advice and then stubbornly defend it against all reason and logic and evidence.

As many of you know, I debated with her for a long time about her ridiculous ideas but I never could figure out what DROVE her and still wonder today.
I believe what drove Heidi to give bad advice is the fact that she dislikes women. She has no women friends, never really has. She told me once that she disliked women. I believe she set out from the start to deceive women with this plan plus make money the easy way. She was always looking for a way to get merchandise without paying for it or to rip off a business or the system. She always acted like she was so much smarter than everyone else. She might have money now but you can bet she's not happy, she's still an alcoholic, she has no friends, she has no husband, her health is terrible, she doesn't know her grandchildren and her sons have no respect for her.

I am so far behind (x-mas shopping and all) but I wanted to say I KNEW I had read this looking-for-money-after-the-fraud junk somewhere, and it was NOT from Miss Merize, I am happy to say. Thank you.

Interesting coincidence

I just had one of those "middle of the night" thoughts that got me out of bed to post so I can go to sleep.

Isn't it an interesting coincidence that another round of "Us vs Them" blew up just at CC was being launched? What better to lure people to a "safe place" than to have an ongoing battle?

If I'm right, we need to play nice. If I'm wrong, we need to play nice.

Nighty-nite!

I never cease to be disgusted with TT.
Doesn't she feel ANY shame in doing what EVERYONE here expected her to do?

Either she is super hard up for cash, or she truly doesn't realize how unbelievably PATHETIC she is.

Hi again Highdesertgal- So true that money doesn't buy happiness.....I guess in her case only a $400,000+ house, a few new cars, some sugar cookies and a defense attorney.
