When I was 18 I was almost on the Ricki Lake Show. My parent begged me not to do it but it took disapproval from my grandparents to talk me out if it. My roommate and I were going to be on to talk about living with someone with a drug problem. We concocted a story where she smoked too much pot and I was upset about it. While I slept, she would blow it in my ear to get me high. -all BS, but the show really wanted us.

We just wanted a free trip and hotel stay. At 18 that's all it took for me to embarrass myself on national TV. Thank GOD I didn't do it.
