Think of it this way...putting Danielle on their team would be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

I need to clear up a misconception. I am the author of what they call on the "Real Housewives of New Jersey" The Book, "Cop Without a Badge." MORE: Danielle Takes to Her Blog to Address Caroline's Reunion Accusations At one point during the now famous "table-flipping" scene, housewife Danielle Staub holds up The Book and exclaims: "Just because my ex-husband decided to write a book about me!" I immediately began getting inundated with emails asking if I was Danielle's ex-husband. First of all, her ex-hus band Kevin Maher didn't "write" the book -- I wrote The Book about her ex-husband 13 years ago. So I was never married to Danielle. Kevin Maher was. And another thing. Nowhere in The Book does it state that Beverly/Danielle was a prostitute. The other housewives on the show kept saying that. And now court papers posted on the Internet allege she worked as an escort. But it's not in The Book. What is in The Book regarding the relationship between Kevin Maher and Beverly Merrill aka Danielle Staub is even more riveting than anything revealed on the show. It's the saga of a dysfunctional, codependent love story for the ages, fueled by drugs, lust and insane jealousy. Like the time Kevin jams a Smith &
Wesson in the crotch of one Beverly's boyfriends and threatens to . . . well, you have to read The Book.
No question, Beverly/Danielle now wants to forget Kevin, the man who brandished a Berretta at a strip joint because he thought she was cheating on him and dropped a bullet onto Beverly's forehead with the admonition: "The next time you see one of these coming at you, it'll be coming at you a lot faster." Tom Clancy once said the difference between reality and fiction is "fiction has to make sense." I agree. I could never have made up a story as bizarre as the tale of The Book and The Show. And creating fictional characters like the housewives of New Jersey? Fugetaboutit! 
PRICELESS PR: "Housewives" talkedabout Danielle's past detailed in the book.

Real Housewives of N.Y.'s Bethenny Frankel on Jersey's Danielle: "Pathological" Andrew Eccles/BRAVO
Welcome back to Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel's exclusive blog about The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Bethenny's blogging exclusively for E! Online every week, dishing about the craziness that goes down with these Jersey girls. Here's her new installment, for part two of the reunion shows. Take it away, Bethenny...
The Jersey runaway train (or in this case Range Rover) has stopped. We've squeezed every last bit of juice out of these girls, and the reunion was lacking for that drama and dirt.

I wonder how the author of "The Book" feels about Kevin's own relatives saying that everything Kevin ever said in the book was a lie? Doubt he
gives a crap. He probably just hopes there's enough demand out there to put the book back into print so he can make more money.

Does anybody know what Caroline was alluding to that she had a mini meltdown over? The thing that she promised she wouldn't talk about on the reunion?

If you check Danielle's last blog (or in earlier posts here) she admits to giving Dina's ex a phone number and that it was none of her business. Who knows if this is the truth? Could be a Bravo phone number to get footage for a court petition, but some say, why wouldn't he just have his lawyers contact Bravo? (I would have asked for the phone number and avoided phone tag myself though.) Jill Zarin knows what it is and agrees that it was horrible, so it may not all be Manzo hyperbole though. |

Great youtube find up there!
Whatever Danielle tried to do it didn't come to pass, so she must have tried to put something in motion. I'd love it if it turns out she hired someone to kick Dina's ass.

I have just discovered this show. Oh my gosh. I watched all the shows back to back and I laughed my ass off the entire time. I love this show.

She is a clueless idiot who thinks her house looks nice, the Greaseball Family Compound where 3 year olds have rooms that are bigger than most peoples houses. She deserves to get stabbed for saying that she would never move into a "used" home - it skeeves her, I think everyone skeeves her by now. |

I thought the stone floors were Teresa's.

As a NYer I hate carpeting of any kind. Hardwood floors all the way, baby. And Teresa's new house was more mausoleum than home. But as you said, easier to
clean up blood.

twop closed this thread so I apologize bumping every housewife franchise! I'm going to give Teresa the benefit of the doubt with the floors since she had
very little furniture yet. Hopefully, when she fills the house, she'll put down a plethora of rugs to keep the echoes to a minimum.

Hardwood floors are nice in formal rooms like a dining room or rooms where there are potentials for spills or wet clean-ups (entry hall, bathroom or kitchen) but not all over. Don't your feet get cold in the winter when you walk around barefoot? Brrr.. |

I hate carpeting, as well. I bought my house 3-1/2 years ago and didn't move in for four months while I had all the carpeting torn out and hardwood floors
installed throughout my entire house, except for the kitchen, bathrooms and main foyer, which I did in ceramic tile. I do have one throw rug in my living room
under my coffee table and a rug in front of my fireplace in my family room.
My disgust for carpeting is that it collects dust, dirt and grime and I am a bit of a clean freak with mild germophobia. Hardwood and tile floors can be cleaned and sanitized often., very often. While I do not have allergies, I have family members who have bad asthma (aunt & grandmother) and they do not have any carpeting due to the fact that it makes their allergy symptoms worse. They have hardwood & tile only. |

If anyone watches the "lost footage" shitfest that will be on tonight, would you let the rest of us know if it was worth it?
