    Default And In Sadder News.....

    Updated: 12:53 PM EST
    Barbie and Ken 'Split' After 43 Years
    Toymaker Says 'Romance Has Come to an End,' But They 'Will Remain Friends'
    NEW YORK (Feb. 12) - Just like J.Lo and Ben, the romance is over for Barbie and Ken.After 43 years as one of the world's prettiest pairs, the perfect plastic couple is breaking up.
    The couple's "business manager," Russell Arons, vice president of marketing at Mattel, said that Barbie and Ken "feel it's time to spend some quality time - apart."

    "Like other celebrity couples, their Hollywood romance has come to an end," said Arons, who quickly added that the duo "will remain friends."

    Arons denied that there was any truth to rumors that the breakup was linked to the Cali (as in California) Girl Barbie, arriving in stores now. To better reflect her single status, Cali Barbie will wear board shorts and a bikini top, metal hoop earrings, and have a deeper tan.

    This new style already has attracted a new admirer, Blaine the Australian boogie boarder.

    Barbie - the most popular fashion doll in the world, according to toy maker Mattel - met Ken on the set of a TV commercial in 1961, and they have been inseparable ever since.

    Arons hinted Wednesday that the separation may be partially due to Ken's reluctance to getting married. All those bridal Barbie dolls in toy chests around the globe are really just examples of Barbie's wishful thinking, he explained.

    Another possible factor is Barbie's career. The doll who was "born" Barbie Millicent Roberts in 1959 has been everything from a rock star to military medic, and she's currently marketed in more than 150 countries. According to Mattel, every second, three Barbie dolls are sold somewhere in the world.

    So where does that leave Ken? Said Arons: "He will head for other waves."

    Did anybody see the claymation tv show where the cops were responding to a domestic violence call at a trailer park and tore up looking Trailer Trash Barbie was getting her ass kicked by a drunk G.I. Joe?

    Also, in the same show, Gumby held up a 7-11 and the cops found a bunch of blow in the back of Santa's sleigh...

    Was it called C.L.O.P.S? for some reason I think it was a spoof on COPS.

    It is about time that Barbie & Ken split, because let me tell you that Barbie has been around and around!!
    I know that my Barbies alone, when I was younger, have betrayed Ken and done some funky stuff with GI Joe, Hulk Hogan and alot of other random plastic dolls, including a million clones of herself!

    LOL.. So very true! At first I thought he was just "Metrosexual", but after further observance through the years, he's definitely not into girls.

    I HAVE KIDNAPPED BARBIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If you ever want to see her alive again, send eight thousand dollars in unmarked bills to a trash can in bumfuck egypt, Iowa! Deliver it to a house with a truck (Look for towmarks on the truck, and signs of an abusive BF that looks like a cross between Howdie-doodie and Fred Durst), put it in the trash can and ring the doorbell and then run.

    Oh, and look for me in the next SC. I'll be the only person on the planet making 1000$ a night at a club where there are no JOBS within 20 miles!

    This has been a kidnappinf service announcement.





    For proof that Barbie is yet alive, see below...

    Madcap we want to know she is alive. Take her picture next to today's newspaper or next to a TV with CNN or the Weather Channel with the time displayed in the corner.

    Ps: Why the tape on her mouth? She can't scream all she can do is whine about boys, and only if someone pulls her string.
