POST FRC - Comings and Goings

[seeker]

please tell me they are NOT considering her for the next bachelorette....

Don't the Bach/ettes always gush in the beginning that they are the happiest person, on top of the world, turned out beyond wildest expectations, found the love of my life, things couldn't have gone better, found my soulmate, etc. Once they get people hooked to the season by tuning into the first episode with teasers of the preview for the season, the Bach/ette start melting and it becomes less and less enthusiastic. By the time WTA and finale is aired they are so used to "act" for the camera they put on a smile and play coy. Once the finale is aired they flash a ring, continue to act lovey dovey (saccharin sweet that it is obvious it's not working to seasoned viewers) until the next sucker is signed on as the Bach/ette. Within hours, we hear them with statements like "we gave it our best it didn't work, I love him/her but am not IN LOVE with him/her, we realized we have different plans for our future. Makes one want to ask, didn't you have all that time during the taping to figure all that out?

Interview with Kirkland Review, printed 1/14, but took place in previous week, 1/7-9 probably, while Jason was in LA. Jason says they are not talking about wedding plans. (Last print interview)
Last verbal interview 1/12.

1/27 RS releases bombshell announcement.

Anyone remember when ABC announced the AATFR?

Melissa created a myspace..not sure what date exactly but it is indeed her real myspace. There are pics of her and Jillian during the show (SC's) but none of her and Molly...no mention of Molly at all.

Can someone give me Shannon and Melissa's my space link please.

Thanks
Sharon

I read on the joker's site that Jason was home for Thanksgiving. There's a pic of him at some restaurant.

He wasn't home at Thanksgiving. If it's a restaurant, it could be any where at any time.

atem, I brought this over for you. And you're right it was Thanksgiving according to the poster.
The neighbor was with the Jason clan, on Thanksgiving.

As the (non) brilliant author of this idea, two suggestions:

1. let's make a single combined post such as Ryvetted's awesome Elimination thread. And like her Elimination list, not every random thing can make it to the list.

2. No posting of dates and events in here as fact that can't be sourced, at least with a reference to how it is known. No point making a list of the random Ca-Ca that circulates around the Internet. If one knows of a date (Jason and Melissa spent Christmas together) because of some inside leak, it can't go on this chronology, unless it can be sourced. We may miss REAL events that way, but at least we won't write a thread that's 99.9% tail-chasing.

To have value as a tool against which to weigh new information and from which to draw inferences and hypothesize the missing dates/events, a chronology has to be corroborated with something close to real evidence. So, therefore, one writes down the underlying fact, NOT inferences from a fact. (So, for example, if someone is absent from her office, the chron notes that and the source (e.g., Myspace, coworker's post), BUT makes no assumption about why (e.g., she was with Jason)-- simply notes the fact of it, and the source, if possible to post).

If there are any accountants, doctors, authors, or Indian Chiefs or whomever, they might have a better way of making this a useful thread, and to reference Will Shakespeare, wish to simple "kill" all my ideas first.

Sounds great my friend.
I'll start the Official Combined Post (along with the guesses... if someone will provide sources). I'll delete them if not.
