In observance of Memorial Day 2016,








Thanks to our veterans and soldiers for giving the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.  And we also remember those who have passed before us and remain in our hearts and memories.

Oh look, another airport sighting. Looks like Mgmnt is trying to spoonfeed us a story.

Ah, yes. This is the time of year for the Nichols crew to pop up in Michigan for the family holiday weekend at their cabin. Quite interesting that Austin makes sure to attend a convention in Chicago this weekend and now we get Jake at JFK and LAX. The ol’ bi-coastal two-step.

Last year, from out of nowhere, we had Jake proudly posing with Cleveland cops at the NBA Finals in June. Jake in Cleveland, you might ask? Well, let’s see how far Cleveland is from the Michigan border? By airplane, Portage, Michigan is only 25 minutes. And, Clarklake is only 180 miles to the west. Both cities have been places Jake and Austin have been seen in, particularly over the summer months. Putting Jake in NY and LA is the perfect solution. Can’t have anyone thinking Jake is anywhere near Michigan now can we?

And I don't know why I didn't think of that when Jake appeared at that Cleveland game. It didn't make any sense.

Having looked at the kind of community that Clark Lake is, I can certainly see how Austin would want to keep returning there. It sounds like he has so many friends and family there, plus it's where his mom grew up. There is a tremendous family history there. And it just looks like such a fun, warm community. I'm glad that it appears the Gyllynichols kids have this as part of their upbringing as well. How wonderful.

No doubt the community is following a silence to protect Austin's family. I've seen much indication that they are all pretty close and could see them offering protection if asked by Austin's parents.

Hope folks have been able to have their memorial observances and perhaps visit the gravesites of family members. Also, roast some hot dogs and enjoy the 3 day weekend as the holiday is also kind of a rite of summer.

Just a humorous observation about another member of our OTP team. One couldn’t miss Louis Tomlinson being pictured everywhere with his beard for the Monaco Grand Prix this past weekend. One big problem is that no one in their right mind would believe he was on a romantic weekend. Video after video and pic after pic, only revealed Louis’ natural “affinity” for flirting with men, while the photos with the beard captured the dullness of someone detached and disengaged from the forced interaction. With factoring in that Monaco has come of the strictness paparazzi laws in Europe, the plethora of “candid” photos is even more laughable.

Louis with men.

Flirty Louis



Try to spot the difference. Louis with the beard:


Girl Cooties #1

Girl Cooties #2


prairiegirl said...

LOLLLLLL!! Look at that. In the first picture, Louis has both of his hands occupied and that second picture is just hilarious.

oh man, that is awesome. And with the interviewer guy, Louis is all engaged. If he had had a tail, it would have been standing straight up, no pun intended.

And, just to highlight how “spontaneous” and “fortuitous” these ridiculous pics of Louis and the beard are, get a load of where the pap would have had to be to get those window ledge snaps. I’m sure the photographer was just passing by. LOL!

Hey folks, sorry for a couple of days of silence. Don't worry, tho. Sometimes you have to watch things play out before further comment.

And indeed, it was just a bit of a show put on by Austin & his band of merrymen (or so they thought). Just for record's sake, if you haven't seen the pics, feel free to give a hit:

How about giving Jake that Cubbies hat now, Austin?

His post came along with some spoon feeding comments, but there was one in particular which undermined the spontaneity and surprise-effect of their whole little outing.

bjayb Shoulda came up to the lake!


Ohhh, look at that. Now that was just all kinds of interesting, wasn't it? Especially coming right on the heels of M&M's and mine comments above regarding Clark Lake? lol. smh.

I don't know if Mgmnt's interns are just that stupid that they thought we were going to Boo Hoo into our woobie blanket when we read that? lol. Or was it just being plain ol' non-thinking stupid?

Maybe it was a little of both.

prairiegirl said...

That's just the sheer beauty of Austin being up in Chicago around the holiday. It's so close to Michigan. Michigan...Memorial Day....Michigan............Memorial Day.....school's out..........the lake......... Well, you get what I'm saying.

Not a huge deal if indeed Austin was able to convince his closet-enabling buddy Josh McDermitt and his sister to stick around and attend a baseball game for a few innings before disbanding. Long enough to snap a few shots (Uh sorry Chlo, just because you had a pic of the final score at Wrigley that doesn't mean your meard was there as well) and well, I'm feeling a little more charitable today. Ima gonna let them think they pulled a real good one. Shhhhhhh!

prairiegirl said...

Okay, enough of that one. Here's another funny.

A nameless taunter made the unthinking mistake of tweeting at me today and while I have him blocked for obvious reasons, I did see this particular tweet. He was "gloating" over Mgmnt's false scenario that Austin lives with his beard, Chlo Bennet. Like I said, big mistake.

M&M had told me back when that Maxim interview with Austin came out in late March this year, it would come back to bite them in the butt. Sure enough, it did and I used it.

Mgmnt has for awhile now, tried to insinuate that Austin shacks up with his beard.

Probably the biggest blowhorn on that one would be Chlo embellishing her beard role at the Nashville Con and claiming on stage about "their" household and "their housekeeper". Oh yeah, she did. I didn't think anyone could have a bigger mouth than Sophia Bush, but Bennet out-does her by a mile.

Anyway, the taunter tried to deal that card, that Austin lives with Bennet. Well, not only is that a laugh, but Mgmnt cooked their own goose with the Maxim interview from late March.

You had lines like this:

He steps into his garage. Between the electric car that is charging and the two sleek road bikes hanging on a wall stands his matte black Triump
Scrambler.

Back at casa Nichols, the El Nino rain persists so instead of his motorcycle he opts for his black pick up truck

Back in his pick-up, Nichols ponders the future. Today, he jokes, he’ll go back home and digest.


And in their biggest blunder of the interview:

In another week he’s off to LA to visit his girlfriend actress Chloe Bennett, an actress on the ABC show Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.



Ohhhhh, look at that.

;D

When you're cooked and you know it

prairiegirl said...

And can we also point out how all of Austin's vehicles are said to be at his Casa Nichols?

Let's count them. According to the writer Tim Struby:


The electric car. I believe that would be Austin's Leaf, correct?

2 sleek road bikes

His new Triumph motorcycle

AND his truck.


His what? His Truck! You know, the truck that his hubby Jake was seen driving back in January of 2012 with those 4 bottles of juice. Remember that time?


And Maxim even has a wonderful picture of Austin sitting on the tailgate of his truck. Oh yeah, looks to me like the exact one that Jake was driving back in 2012.


Well, sounds like Mgmnt did quite the excellent job of telling us that Austy has all of his vehicles down in Austin TX. Plus a house. And a garage.

Doesn't sound like he's living in LA with the beard to me, does it to you? I don't think I read anywhere in the interview about the beard's SUV being there in the garage.


The only time Austin's livin' in LA is when Jake and/or the kids are there.

Looks like Management might be tangled up in blue these days. LOL!

I really do wonder how low the collective IQ of these bottom feeders actually is. They compose so many lies, they can't keep them straight from month to month. I remember how, in 2011, Soapy Bush also pushed the narrative that she and Austin lived together in their cozy little compost heap, with their "shared family" of pit bulls, Patch and Penny.

Within months of this fabricated domestic bliss, One Tree Hill had been cancelled, Austin had been openly seen with Jake, and Soapy announced to the world that Austin wasn't "The One," after all. Hmm. Funny how "true love" can collapse in a nanosecond once contractual obligations have been met. ;-)

Dogs apparently are a common denominator ahaha "their children" Ew. I hate when Bennet says so (she took another pic of Austin the day after the game while he was taking a nap with... "their child", Wally)

Well, maybe we should hope AOS will be cancelled to make Bennet understand he's not "the one" for her as well?

prairiegirl said...

Dogs are a common denominator

Particularly with those in the closet.

Hi Peyton! Well, all I can say is they both have worn the heck out of the dog=children angle, lol. Must be the only idea they can come up with.
