Only a couple of weeks left! I can feel the excitement rising as we get closer to The ‘Mess 2006.
The ‘Mess is having a Singles Workshop. And according to the web site the workshop will enable singles to “…be inspired and receive knowledge from a panel of professionals as you celebrate the single life with singles from the U.S. and around the world.” I would assume that part of the celebration of their singleness would include encouraging chastity and chaste behavior for both men and women.
If you take a look here , you can see that Eva Pigford is one of the professionals hosting the Singles Workshop.
As in previous posts, I can almost hear you give forth a collective “Yeah. So?”
And as I usually say at this point , that is a perfectly valid question. So let me explain.
One of the readers brought to my attention the fact that Ms. Pigford was a winner on the reality show where Tyra Banks and a panel of folks select the next great model. Pigford apparently won the contest and has gone on to do some pretty good (or bad from a Christian perspective) things since her victory.
Now remember, Ms Pigford is going to be sitting on a panel of people running a workshop for ostensibly Christian…uh…workshoppers. Supposedly the singles sitting in the workshop will be getting Christ-centered advice. That would seem to imply that the panel members in the workshop are at least nominally Christ-centered and encouraging a Christ-centered lifestyle.
And there-in, kind readers, lies the rub. My constant rant for the last week has been that I have been unable to identify the criteria for selecting a number of the personalities selected. I fear Ms. Pigford falls into that category. Take a look at a cleaned up photo of what Ms. Pigford, one of the professionals on the Singles Workshop panel, has been doing with her time. I created the strategic covering so I wouldn’t stumble a bruvva by putting the uncensored photo out there.
We should also note that Ms. Pigford is going to be a co-star in a sitcom next season on Fox Television. You know Fox. They’re the ones with a long line of fairly sleazy sitcoms, starting with “Married With Children” and continuing the proud tradition with “Family Guy”, “The Simpsons”, “That 70’s Show”, and “King of the Hill” to name a few. The network is a veritable sitcom sewage pipe. Pigford gets to add her name and face to that.
I’m not saying that people who do these things are going to hell or that they should be taken out and stoned. But I would love it if one of you, if you get the chance, would ask T. Dexter what his thought process was for appointing Pigford to the Singles Workshop panel.
A tip of the hat to Katina for bringing the information to my attention.
Well, she’s posed nude like twice after this and a frontal nude I might say. However, I didn’t see her there. Did she change her mind about doing this…just curious. But I was there and I didn’t see her. Then again I wasn’t looking for her so that could be it.
Just an Observation: I remembered having first read the article about Ms. Pigford’s planned affiliation with MegaMess 2006 and her prior documented notoriety, it occurred to me that sometimes a name can work against you; especially if it has the ring of affinity to events such as this. I realize the poor girl had no control over the family “moniker.” Perhaps someone in the MegaMess PA Dept drew similar conclusions; and this may be the reason for her “absence” from the event. Just an observation.
