New People Magazine

**Lesbosandwich** · 07.11.02, 10:54 PM

The new People Magazine (w/ Julia Roberts on the cover) has a story about Ed and Mrs. VH's current relationship status...It pretty much goes into the story of how they met, their 20 year marriage is one of the longest lasting Hollywood marriages blah blah blah...Ed's smokin' and drinkin' has but a strain on the family....blah blah blah
But, the one thing that surprised me was that it said Ed had gotten a 50/50 chance of survival with his Cancer...
Was that known before?
Nothin 'bout Al...just that Ed and Al are jammin'..
It said Dave nixed the re-union (both Sammy and Dave singin' on the tour) that was supposed to happen a couple of years ago ...the offer was put up by some Las Vegas businessman (...I wonder if this is the same dude who wanted to do Britney Spears for 17 mil?) for MAJOR ca$h $$$$.
And it also stated that The VH's #1 priority right now is the young Wolf. Ed gets the little rascal when Mrs. VH heads to that great state of Utah for work (no sarcasm Utah...them German Brown Trout are good eatin'...)

So he beats the 50/50 odds and STILL continues to smoke? I wonder if he'll be so lucky a second time?

Perhaps he switched to "Lucky Strike".......

I'm not trying to say what Eddie does is right or wrong, because people will choose to live their lives the way they want to, and everyone has that right (of course barring any harm to others).

I know of a man who smoked all his life, got lung cancer, got diagnosed with 6-months to live, and lived another 9 years with no major problems. He died doing what he wanted to do. My grandmother smoked her entire life, quit when she was 77, died two weeks later from heart failure.

Now please, I am *not* advocating smoking. I personally can't stand it. But Ed's choice to smoke is his and his only. He may die tomorrow, he may live another 20 years. Who knows? I know that the average smoker lives to be about 50. I will be very sad if Ed doesn't make it much past 50.

But what gets people through such things as addiction and cancer is a positive attitude. A happy mind will outlast a sad one.

My thoughts are Val wouldn't leave Ed if he were dieing. But he may have told her to go.

Can you believe it?....17 Mil to have his way with Britney Spears...For that amount he could get Jessica Simpson and Mandy Moore in a threesome..

Let me get this straight...Some guy who was willing to pay $50 million for a two show Van Halen reunion was only willing to pay a mere $17 million to do Britney Spears? Either somebody really gets off on VH or somebody has his priorities mixed up.

Seriously, though...$17 million to do Britney Spears? I suppose she would never publicly acknowledge having done they guy, but isn't she big on saying things like: "God gave me these looks because He wants me to use them"? Or is that Jessica Simpson?

**Leprikawn7** · 07.14.02, 08:45 PM

But for that amount of money could he get Val????

I agree, if You have $50 million to burn, bang Brittney! I can close My eyes and listen to a Vanhalen album and fantasize to where it is almost real.......With Brittney there is no closing the eyes......It would be great seeing her walk differently for the rest of her life. Then you could go up to Justine timberlake and put your finger under his nose and say "remember her?"

I really wonder about the idiot who offered Abba $1 billion dollars for One concert!

This guy is more deranged than Bundy or any other serial killer out there.

Lock him up!

But abba should be locked up too.......they turned him down!

...I still think the best re-union offer came from Saturday Night Live when they offered The Beatles scale wage for a performer and they almost did it.

**mhnyr2000** · 07.15.02, 05:20 AM

Britney is as hot as they get.But I could go to a bar and pour $50 worth of drinks down the throat of a girl who is almost as hot as Britney and get some.Plus as an added bonus if I get drunk enough she will look exactly like Britney

That was a semi serious joke.Not wanting to sound gay but I'd take a VH reunion over Britney.If she banged Timberlake that takes away some of her appeal
