I haven't watched a soap since the days when my college roommate used to TAPE (not DVR, tape) All My Children, but I think I might watch this just for the crazy. #jamesfrancogeneralhospital
@Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate: That's what I'd assume. Lots of countries start out adopting to qualified interested parents, and then slowly narrow the scope to knock off the gays, the "partners" and then single people. Ethiopia was one of the recent examples.
Though the Syria thing surprises me and makes the whole story suspect. Egypt just imprisoned two foreign families for adopting, because adoption's not recognized by law. I don't remember Syria being on any of the lists I looked at when I was researching. #angelinajolie
crazy me but i'm a little worried for that bunny. that boy seems too young for a pet like that. unless they have a nanny for the bunny? #angelinajolieadopting
@msAnthrope: I completely agree - I used to volunteer at a rabbit rescue, and trying to convince people that rabbits are not good pets for children is almost impossible. So many people would tell me that they wanted a "starter" pet...
Rabbits are very fragile. If you pick a rabbit up wrong you can break their back. They are difficult to care for properly - far more so than cats or dogs (in my opinion anyway). They need lots and lots of exercise, especially if they live in a cage. They chew everything.
@alwayswrite: Yes, my daughter wanted one, and I felt that, at five, she was too young. The rabbit woman at the Human Society agreed, saying they recommend that kids be 9 or 10 before they get a rabbit. #angelinajolieadopting
@RedLantern: A dog would be so much better for a five year old! Assuming, of course, the parents took on the responsibility for caring for it. Bunnies are awesome pets for adults though, I really love my rabbit. #angelinajolieadopting
Jen gets drunk and calls Chateau Mirval in the middle of the night
Please let this be true. Can you imagine? I'm picturing Jen getting all Neely O'Hara on Angie, screaming something like "I'm not everyone! I don't have to live by stinking rules set down for ordinary people!" #angelinajolieadopting
@Mary McCarthyite: If Angie is as fake as these magazines say, I fully expect Jen to track her down, rip off her wig and scream "HER HAIR'S AS PHONY AS SHE IS!"
The only thing I can deduce from RPattz' handwriting is that it looks like he was a leftie who was forced to write with his right hand in elementary school. #angelinajolieadopting
OH MY GOD! I just realized while reading the Life and Style breakdown - Does anyone else think they are turning Angelina Jolie into Rebecca from Daphne DuMaurier's Rebecca?
I'm getting extremely annoyed and borderline offended that people are insinuating that having an addictive personality/OCD means you can't possibly have lots of children because you want them.
Are any of ya'll Ms. Jolie's mental health care provider? No? Then please, refrain from armchair psychology. It just makes life harder for those of us who do deal with OCD/addiction. #angelinajolie
@HannahBethD: Agreed. Commentors would lose their shit if someone implied that a woman who didn't want any children had a mental disorder. And yet a woman who chooses to have more than three is apparently a hoarder and/or has OCD.
People can make choices different than yours without being "crazy". #angelinajolie
I like how, according to the tabloids, Brad Pitt has no personality or free will, whatsoever. A pretty woman tells him to do something and he does it! It must be nice to not have to think for yourself or have any responsibilities for your own actions.
Seriously, the next time I mess up at work, I'll just say, "Angelina Jolie made me do it!" and all will be forgiven. #angelinajolieadopting
So now that they've drained the Jon & Kate cash cow, back to pitting women against each other! Evil Angie! Poor Jen! Oh, and Brad is just an innocent bystander.

They are terrible pets for kids. But fantastic pets in general. #angelinajolieadopting

Yes, actually it does. More than that, it takes actually interacting with the patient. Who knew Frist was a Jezebel?
