    Sorry for the double post. There were issues. Glad I'm not going to VEE.
    There are rules. Knowing those are easy. There are exceptions to the rules. Knowing those are easy. Knowing when to use them is slightly less easy. There are exceptions to the exceptions. Knowing those is a little more tricky, and know when to use those is even more so. Our industry is FULL of all of the above.

    I don't think it is VEE that is bringing her. I believe a frame company is paying for her to appear, just like "the situation" at VEW.

    My guess would be Revolution, just look at past shows.


    By the way. Who exactly is this person, and why should I care? I have never heard of her, not that I care.

    Snooki is a cast member from the reality TV show Jersey Shore. Google Snooki and you'll find all kinds of info.

    She's a girl most of us wouldn't take home to mother but we wouldn't mind having a one night party with either (if you take my meaning and are single). ;)

    Thanks!! (not really);)

    Now I'm unsure of why people find white trash like this news worthy, or at least vision expo worthy. Stop lining up people to see these idiots and pay homage in a weird sense, before they consume your life, or the lack there of.

    Say a prayer of thanks for the unreliability of your babysitter.
