Good night everyone!
See you tomorrow!
13,999 to go, I just sent a tweet.
Ooh BEAT 360 Tee. I'm on it! LOL!
mama looks fab!
I want a Beat 360 T-Shirt Soooooooooo Bad
Anderson you don't look like Lou Dobbs.
They do really look alike, like twins. I can't tell who is the mom, who is the daughter. I would feel a little freak if my mon wants to look exactly like me and does all the thing to look like me. If I have a daughter, I do not think I would want to look like her.
Funny, I can't see you look like Lou Dobb. Thanks Erica fro the laugh.
😀
Good night everyone.
Have a great Friday tomorrow.
Sweet dreams all.
Re: The Shot
The mother and daughter looking alike is not unusual nor is a mother looking as young as her daughter. My mother (up until her death 2 years ago) looked very young for her age. She was 56 and had no wrinkles on her face, or anywhere on her body. She had never had any surgery to "enhance her looks", it was all about wearing sunscreen, makeup, excercise, and a mostly vegetarian diet.
@ Anderson Cooper
Was that comparison that?
It does not! lol ...
Erica Hill you light up a room with your smile.
Good night all!!
Go CNNBRK! That was kind of a creepy shot!
Good night Anderson, Erica and fellow bloggers! Have a good sleep and great tomorrow hope its a happy Friday!
Anderson and Lou...too funny. Goodnight everyone, sweet dreams.
GO TWITTERS!!
Ha! Yeah I can't tell who Anderson is in that photo. : )
Anderson, I find it so amusing that you are so competitive, all anyone has to do is tell you that there is a contest of some kind and you are *in*.
Good luck, CNN! Have fun. Night all!
I signed up @CNNBRK !!
GO CNN!! Ashton cannot win
Hey Anderson
You are right 14,000 on your show no problem and regarding the mother who had plastic surgery to look like the daughter digusting. What daughter would want their mother to do that, and what mother would want to be so self-absorbed with looks.
I would also just like to say
We're all a bunch of loyal Twits...ha ha.
All I see in this picture are a couple of Barbie dolls. Seriously. Yikes.
Goodnight, everyone!
Mother on our right.
Polka dots are seldom a good fashion choice.....BTW: I twitter for Anderson!
i have no clue which one is the mom!
Hello Anderson!!!! Glad to be a follower!!!!! JUST JOINED TODAY!!!
who's updating "cnnbrk"? last update: 22 hours ago... ?
My oh my! Where has the time gone. Is it just me or did the week just fly by? Goodnight all!
Jackie
@Heather-I confess I have dreamed of having cosmetic surgery. If I ever get a big pile of money I might do it. It's hard to resist it when you don't like your neck anymore, and when three pregnancies have taken their toll on you.
Well good night Anderson. Erica, Bloogers
Good Night!
I don't see any harm in a person use to the treatment of aesthetic and plastic surgery to improve their appearance and feel better, but there is a limit to everything
Alright Andy, the mother is on my left and your right and you've got me on twitter, okay?! Thanks for another great show and thanks for making me smile, once again! Good night Andy, rest easy.
Anderson, Erica, Team 360 and Fellow Bloggers -
Good mix on the show tonight - loved Jeff Toobin and David Gergen in the house! Good mix of topics -
Fellow bloggers, hope you have a sunny day tomorrow....until tomorrow night.... peace
Anderson, you are so focused on getting 14,000 more people to sign up on twitter at cnnbrk!
I like your competitiveness!
Just signed on to Twitter, one less 14,000.00 – don't forget to let people signing on to follow "CNNBRK".
so I placed on my friend's wall on facebook about the twitter fun tweet nonsense....they'll comply since I will see them all at lunch tomorrow... 😉
Watch out Ashton.... you've just triggered Anderson's obsessive competitive streak – now It's WAR.
What a depressing news to see youths whose their dreams should contain with hopes and dreams, but end up smuggling drugs.Shame on recruiters.
The interlocutor's tactics to extract crucial infomation are soooo barbarian. Forced nudity, water boarding? i think not!
.I'd rather spank! =P
CNN was the first I followed when I joined Twitter. Been recruiting people since this AK thing started! He's ahead right now. Hurry up people!!
Goodnight yall
@Anderson,
Are you kiddin? They are twins!!!
If Ashton Kutcher wins, then Cnn Doubles the donation that's more money for charity, then if CNN wins alone.
Busy, busy night on the blog.
Good night Anderson et al.
Good night fellow bloggers!
I'm off to twitter (hope CNN wins)
I already follow on twitter! Thanks for the Susan Boyle story.I smile every time I hear her sing.Great show! Goodnight everyone.Peace to all of you and yours.
I do not think that Boyle lady is in any way unattractive.
@Erica...If I come to NY to get married will you officiate the wedding? (I can't get married in Calfornia anymore.) 🙂
The singer's confidence! great!
I can't wait to see what happens to Susan Boyle if she actually wins Britain's got Talent – we've only just had the first episode!
Anderson, I created my twitter account today and just added "cnnbrk." Good luck and I pray for CNN. You are the best!
