I've got to say, I bet the folks at the "meetings" that Tommy and Laura "do their appearances" at are just "thrilled" that they have such important celebrities choosing their meetings for an appearance. Does the station provide stickers? Maybe little keychains with a saying "I'm as sober as Tommy and Laura" and such? Maybe the station foots the bill for coffee?
I bet the groups all start thinking early in the afternoon, "I wonder if Laura and Tommy will come visit US? oh, I do hope so!" I'm thinking of BECOMING an alcoholic, just so I can go into some kind of pandering rehab and have something in common with the likes of Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan without having to go through the distress and inconvenience of an overindulged childhood. |

Yeah, haha..I bet you are right - there are probably "group stalkers" that will be attending meetings in hoping to see the "dopey duo" in action. Remember the movie Fight Club? Where Edward Norton did that-went to many diff meetings, all for the emotional boost he got from it-he was addicted. I can see Laura now - basking in all the attention and adoration from others who buy her BS and who think she's special. She's as ugly inside sameome! |

you all have said it! Laura and Tommy basking in all the attention! all about "me", nothing has changed. also, why do they go to a different AA meeting each day? more attention, being the celebrity anew! It would be 'sobering' and mundane to go to the same meeting with the same group every day, or every week? |

Has anyone read Laura's diary from today (Friday)? OMG! Doesn't Claim Jumper realize that Laura and Tommy are a BIG DEAL in this town? They didn't get supersized meals - hey, Claim Humper - Laura and Tommy are a BIG DEAL! Make sure they get an extra apple on their plates next time, people!
And she's raising her son to be a narcissistic loser, just like her. I'm "Laura Cain's son" - Oh, is that the Laura Cain that let you get hurt on her watch? Is that the Laura Cain that let's your sister eat dirt? And her rehab had a "patio check"? WTH is that? It's not the "Girl, Interrupted" scene she would like us to believe. Three months sharing a room with Angelina Jolle - THAT'S what she needed - but it sounds like she was in a "what time is the tennis lessons" rehab. Whatever........ I'm thinking that she missed one of the biggest of the 12 steps - you have to admit that you have a problem. Not because it will get you better ratings or more attention that you don't deserve. |

She ABSOLUTELY got shipped off to rehab - it wasn't something she chose for herself......and I'm thinking the State had something to do with that. Either way, it sounds to me like even in rehab, instead of looking inward to try to find out WHY she was there and make some serious changes, she was playing the "who's the prettiest girl in the room" game.......totally missing the point. |

Tuesday, June 26, 2007 at 1:14 am Here is tomorrow’s show: Jeff: “What a great family they are! Dave and Laura! And those great kids!” Jer: “I have the top ten reasons to love that family!” Tommy: “I have a great family! Have I mentioned my mom and how hard my childhood was?” Randy: “My childhood is almost over! I’m thinking about moving out of my home after 43 years. Have I mentioned my wonderful girl, Debbie?” Jeff: “I know all about great families!! I have five beautiful children being raised by three different mom’s. I learned how to be a great Dad for multiple families in church!” Jer: “I know all about moms! They have big jugs!! Did I mention I’m an alcoholic and I get most of my jokes from on-line resources?” Tommy: “My brother was an addict. Did I mention that 74 times? Plus, I had to eat rice and hot dogs alot. Anyone want to hear why I’m fat?” Jeff: “I read a great book on that! ‘Christians Who Get To Say Anything Because They Are Never Called Out For Being A Hypocrite’I used to be fat too. But, Jesus saves millionaire sleep-walkers!” Laura: “Does Sleep-Train sponsor rehab-divorce assistance-acting sessions-while I wish I could be Kelly Rippa- classes?” Stay tuned next week when the “best of Jeff And Jer” finishes playing while our “heroes” vacation in Italy-Tennessee-Disneyland-Chula Vista- and Betty Ford! “It’s all about the kids!” Don’t you wish your kids could grow up to be just like them?! ![]() |

i'm a lurker and love this sight! i'm also the ex of an alcoholic. not to get preachy but . . . a big part of aa is a meeting a day - 30 meetings in 30 days. laura thinks rehab was hard - she hasn't begun to know hard. and her children, they're young, but they have been effected (affected?) and will be for the rest of their lives. it's sad. that having been said - lbmbt (laura bugs me big time) |

I am a recovering addict.
Yes - 30 meetings in 30 days. I tried to stay with the same meetings so that I could get to know others who were in the same shoes as me and to seek out a sponsor with in my 30 days. I did it for me and no one else - not my family, not my friends, not my job but for me. I was sick and wanted to get well. I wanted to be a productive member of society. I heard her announcement. I was happy that she admitted she is an alcoholic but part of me thinks she is more of a drug addict than alcoholic. I guess alcoholic sounds better than drug addict - better public acceptance. No matter how hard she tries, you cannot sugarcoat addiction and recovery. She better take it seriously or else she will fail. |

Village Idiot - Congrats on your success. I too would think that one would stick to the same meetings, to establish a stable network with people they can depend on. Definately sounds like Laura [and Tommy] are making the "self promotion" rounds. I wonder if Star 94.1 is gonna start having AA commercials?
From Tommy's Blog: I get in my car and we listen to Laura read her letter. (I think she could of went on longer when she talked about me)..Just kidding. Hey, by the way, I’m not trying to get too personal, but did you know Laura didn’t mention--------------Randy? Or maybe it was someone else, I forget. I know it has been mentioned before, that Tommy probably reads this thread. More proof here" Laura jokingly said there were 91 people there, because “she’s a really big deal”. Yup, rehab didn't touch on the "get over yourself already - it isn't 'All About You'".Laura was upfront with everyone on the walk and everyone on the walk was not too shy to ask Laura questions on where she’s been and who was or WASN’T supporting her. She answered very openly to everyone! Hmmmm, who's NOT supporting her, well she hasn't mentioned Davecain at all, nor Cree, not much mention of Jer [won't give up his "wine"], and not much mention of Jeff [surprised that Laura isn't going to church with him too].

BeciniCA:
You're funnier than that freaking show.....when is your show? I'd like to listen to THAT. The only one that DOESN'T seem to have problems now is Randy.....that might change when he comes out of the closet, but for now, he's the most stable one of the bunch.

From Tommy's blog:
Right now, I feel beat up and I’m very dusty from the mountains. I need to take a shower and a nap then drag my sober ass friend to a meeting! And so it has begun already. She is already missing meetings and Tommy is having to "drag" her to them.?? She really doesn't seem like she is taking this whole thing very seriously does it? |

And that sort of surprises me - when would she miss an opportunity to get attention? Can't you just hear her introducing herself....."hi,my name is Laura Cain, from the highest rated morning show Jeff and Jer and Star 94.1, am I not beautiful.....oh, and I'm an alcoholic and substance abuser - you should all love and adore me - now, that's enough about you, what do YOU think of me?"

The Jeff & Jer email blog is so nausiating! I very rarely check it out but after doing so today you can sure tell whose deciding what emails go up. Every single entry is about Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. Tommy you're such a wonderful friend, Tommy you're such a great dad, Tommy you're such a caring son, Tommy you're such an inspiration telling us how to lose weight like you did by eating 3 almonds and drinking lots of water and oh yeah, spending hours and hours (hours you have and normal people don't because we actually have to spend more that 4 hours at our job) each day working out. Why is it called the Jeff & Jer email blog anyway? The way the show has turned lately it really should be called the Tommy and Laura show.

Bec...great job, LOL! thanks!
Village Idiot...you know there is something about her....I guess it's the fake "Im recovering and you all are lucky to be around me" thing she is doing. I think she is doing the whole concept of "recovery" a disservice and this station and all who are enabling this attention-seeking junkie. |

AARRRGGGHHH!! She makes me want to !!!!When she hits bottom AGAIN, then maybe, just maybe, she will get a clue as to what recovery is all about. Actually I don't think ANY of them have a clue - they are enablers and in denial over her and their own problems. IMHO - she doesn't seem humble enough and she needs to start working her 12 Steps a little more thoroughly. Thank you for letting me share. ![]() |

From Tommy: This was our 7th meeting in 10 days. We need to double up a few times so Laura can do the 90 meetings in 90 days that she’s trying for.
It sounds like she is slacking off already. I thought the whole goal was a meeting a day. I didn't realize she could sit in meetings all day and take care of the next two weeks. Also from Tommy: It’s kind of funny how Laura and I are getting emails from people DEMANDING Laura to speak and DEMANDING Laura to tell them what they want to hear. I wonder what these emails are about. Is it what is going on with Dave or is it what is going on between these two or a combination of the two. |

How nauseating can Little turd, I mean Tommy get??? From his blog "Man, there was one woman there that made Pamela Anderson look like a 12 year old boy. She was frickin HUGE, OKAY, I better get back on track here. I was honored last night to give Laura her little 90 day token."
So this loser (and I hate that word) is sitting in a recovery meeting checking out women as he's getting ready to give a 90 day token. The fact that he further deamans the symbolism of the token by calling it "little token" proves that he just doesn't get it and has no right to be sitting in that meeting. He doesn't deserve to. Aaagh LTMMP (little tommy makes me puke)LBM. Happy 4th! |

I think it's ironic that Tommy is all irritated that people want the details and inside scoop that he flippin' promised! It would have us all in tears he claimed! Guess he spoke/wrote too soon...The whole thing has been pretty anti-climatic. Does anyone else think Laura still has that tweeker nasally voice going? It is better, but definitely still there to me. Seems like clear channel needs to start drug testing their employees...Tommy's pretty much admitted to being a user too. Great for his 12 year old daughter to read in his blog, as well as him constantly objectifying women...he'd better become a little more mindful if he doesn't want her to be a coke whore by age 15. But hey, she's not meeting up with boys at the mall or fair, so his job is done.

That was really a touching story regarding the signing of the Declaration of Independence Jerry read on the air in honor of the 4th of July. It's just a real shame Jerry didn't have the courtesy and decency to read it live on the air instead of pulling a tape of it off the shelf from last year's reading of the story. This combined with the movie mom replay leads me to believe the entire showgram taped a "see ya" message to be played at 9:59am this morning then all took off around 9:00am or so. They've got a GREAT life! Happy 4th everyone!

LOL, yourmama. But remember, Laura and Tommy are not regular people who are supposed to follow the rules and the intent of the law. They are both "big deals" in their own eyes. She, and she alone can skip meetings and get credit for them. She probably figures that if she intends to go, the folks who would have been at the meeting and could have possibly gotten a chance to see her would be so honored, she ought to get full credit.
LOL at the two of those characters!!! I'm fine with them being there with each other...I keep hearing strains of Bonnie Rait singing "Let's give them something to talk about" in the background, though. |

Dave Cain
I kind of feel like a dork posting about this stuff...but these are public figures after all.
I heard somewhere that perhaps Dave was having affairs?? Who left whom? Who has custody of the kids? |

There are so many unanswered questions. Among the questions I wonder about are:
1. Did Dave give her an ultimatum about their marriage if she didn't go to rehab? Then, if that's true, why did he file for separation after she returned from rehab? 2. Are there custody issues with the kids? 3. One of her diary entries says she was "shipped off" to rehab. Does that mean that going to rehab was not her choice? 4. Little Tommy said in his blog that he went to see Laura somewhere locally in the days after she was absent from work, but before they knew she would be gone to rehab? Was she in a hospital, detox facility, or where? 5. Did she have to go to rehab as part of a deal on custody of the kids, otherwise risk losing custody? 6. Do the kids live with her now? Is she living in the Cain family home, or somewhere else? 7. Charlie fell down at school on March 6th, which was her last day on the air. Did that incident have anything to do with her going to rehab; was she high or drunk when school called that her son was injured? 8. What is her goal now? Naturally she wants to be clean and sober, but what about the family issues? Is there definitely going to be a divorce, or is the legal separation leaving the door open to reconciliation, IF she keeps herself clean? These are just some questions I wonder about. I hope she is able to turn her life around. She apparently has serious family issues, though, in addition to the drug and alcohol problems. |

doesn't Tommy always have to "resue" women? in Laura he will have job security for sure, as she will always need help and need someone to take care of her. Plus he is the president of her fan club!

Tommy and Laura, etc.
I don't dislike either of them; I'm just curious (nosy) as to the whole Laura story. She appeared to have it "together." It makes me want to know more about all of the cast of the show. There must be someone out there who knows details.
