Why the hell not????? & Just curious Sorry group....this is really off topic but..... I can't contain my curiosity any longer....the name Doug Wilson is familiar to me.....I love the TLC show Trading Spaces.....is "our" Doug Wilson......the TS Doug Wilson? I have been wondering about this for months and just couldn't hold the question in anymore......I promise I will not be discussing the program pros and cons here but.....I had to ask. JanB....hoping I'm not in too much trouble for the OT post. PS....Gibb content.....would love to see...two of the Gibb brothers and their wives trade a room in each others home and "redo" it...... ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 10:46:29 -0400 From: Joseph Brennan Subject: RE: No Bee gees content > Thanks Chris.

I believe one of the requirements of being knighted is having kept your residence in the UK. The fact that the BeeGees moved to Australia makes that they can not be "Sirs". And why don't you try to be happy for them instead of always comparing them to what others get and do!!! Be proud of them and stop complaining!!!! ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 10:03:57 -0500 From: "Douglas E Wilson" Subject: RE: Justcurious JanB, either with a non-functioning space key or an interesting name, wondered: > Sorry group....this is really off topic but..... > > I can't contain my curiosity any longer....the name Doug Wilson is > familiar to me.....I love the TLC show Trading Spaces.....is "our" Doug > Wilson......the TS Doug Wilson? > > I have been wondering about this for months and just couldn't hold the > question in anymore......I promise I will not be discussing the program > pros and cons here but.....I had to ask. > > JanB....hoping I'm not in too much trouble for the OT post. If you need me to be the TS Doug Wilson, I'll be happy to oblige. Of course, if you need me to be Steve from Blue's Clues, Tom Brokaw, Regis Philbin, or David Letterman, my fee would be slightly higher. I do draw the line at Rosie, Oprah, and Barbara Walters, however. Doug ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 17:07:48 +0200 From: "Per Bausager" Subject: SV: Sir Mick!!!!????? Why???
