	We The Fans of BRAVO TV are expressing our outrage at having Slade Smiley as a star on at least 2 of your shows.
We are outraged that you aid this person in concealing monies that would benefit his child, and allow Gretchen Rossi to do the same.
We demand that you stop utilizing the suffering of the children of the so called “stars” associated with your shows, by NOT contracting with people of questionable backgrounds.
BRAVOTV hold yourself accountable and get rid of these deadbeats.

	It has been 48 days since my Aunt Bobbie passed away, yet the reality of it it still unfathomable. I often find myself picking up the phone 
to call her, or making a mental note about something I need to tell her. I miss her laugh, her words of wisdom. I miss talking to her, I miss her.
I sat with her for a few hours, alone, just before she passed away. I laughed, I cried. I told her it was o.k. to go, I threatened she better not leave me.  I talked and talked and talked (as usual)…she listened, (as usual)  occasionally squeezing my hand or just giving me a simple sigh, letting me know she was present in the conversation.
I don’t remember exactly what I did or didn’t say, but I know there was, and never will be enough time or words to say everything I wanted…or needed to say. A few things I may…or may not have forgotten…
• I am sorry for draining your phone battery nearly every time we talked.
• I will miss my $5.00 gift certificates to McDonalds in my birthday card each year.
• Thank you for being my babysitter, my aunt and my friend.
• I will never forgive you for making me eat the fat on my steak.
• I am sorry for not telling anyone you ran out of gas on that hot, summer day when you called for help.
• Thank you for not beating me with that stick you had in your hand when you had to walk home…on that hot, summer day.
• I forgive you for giving me 2 left gloves for Christmas.
• I confess, it was me that hid the hominy in the milk…I didn’t  want to eat it!!!
• Thank  you for always standing by my side through the years.
• I will always treasure the night, not long ago, we tried on all your favorite hats…and laughed so hard we almost peed our pants. You gave me your favorite one!
• I will never forgive you for reintroducing me to Spice Drops. I eat them excessively…
• Thank you for giving me 5 fantastic cousins!
• I forgive you for giving me the ugliest fabric pin and earrings I have ever seen.
• Thank you for letting me “practice” cutting your hair.
• Thank you for letting me “practice” cutting your hair a 2nd time.
• I will think of you every time I’m having a bad day and spray on my “Phuket” body spray. I will include an extra spay each time..for you.
• Thank you for all the Deviled Egg plates. One can never have too many.
• I will never forgive you for making me search every floor of the hospital for your keys, only for you to tell me an hour later you found them…in your bra.
• I miss being able to cry on your shoulder.
• Thank you for slipping me what was probably your last $40.00 under the Thanksgiving dinner table, because you knew the position I was in.
• I’m sorry I told Randy to run from you when he was in trouble.
• I’m sorry I told Randy the “Music Man” was really the “Ice Cream Man.”
• I will never understand why your purse weighed more than I did.
• Thank you for being such a good sister to my mom.
• Thank you for leaving us all with such a precious and beautiful gift…your legacy.
• I will always remember you for your giant, gentle heart, your compassion for all. Your ability to forgive, your infectious laugh, your words of wisdom, your inspiration. I will remember your never ending strength, your Waldorf Salad that I hated, your patience, trust and endless love. I will always remember you for being the best aunt I could have asked for, the best friend I could turn to and the incredible woman that you were.
I will always remember you. Thank you for the memories.
I’m sorry, forgive me and I confess.
I love you!!

	Gretchen’s Twitter…
omg! All the stories being posted r ridic!  Seriously making me laugh a little! 
funny how blogs completely make up lies in order to have a story!
I think it’s safe to assume she is referring to today’s courtroom drama. Interestingly enough, Slade has been a little quiet. Perhaps he is actually busy preparing for the next hearing so he doesn’t have to walk in to court with an empty brief case…again. Does this dynamic duo really believe they are above the law? It appears that somewhere along the line, they have lost the true sense of, well…reality. The world they live in seems to be nothing short of a fantasy, consisting of puppy dog tails and rainbows. Nothing lasts forever though…
“…According to court documents and Radaronline.com, Smiley, 41, owes between $84,962 and $110,000 in back child support to Michelle Arroyo of Los Angeles. They are the parents to Grayson Arroyo-Smiley, 10, who suffers from a rare form of brain cancer (diffuse fibrillary astrocytoma)  and has been in and out of hospitals since preschool….”

Long story short. You make a baby, you take responsibility. No if ands or buts. Period. •Check back in the next day or so, I will be posting some new information on this. Most Wanted Deadbeats
