Dean Kamen's Fortress Retreat

I just heard, that Dean Kamen's Manchester house will be featured on MTV's "Cribs" show.

Does anyone know anything more about this??

this sounds vaguely similar to the rumor that FIRST would be featured on 'The Simpsons'....

However cool that would be, I thought it was music stars, movie stars, and athletes that were on that show.

Dean doesn't exactly fit those requirements.

From what I hear though, he has a cool house, so I'm not about to completely rule it out, but yeah, it's not very plausible .

John, John, John... I want to believe you, but after the Simpsons thing, I'm a little suspicious. It would be cool, but somehow I get the feeling John may be prevaricating, yet again.

Just my way of getting people talking about something.

I suppose I could have phrased it "wouldn't it be cool if Deano's house was on Cribs?" but I think this is a little more fun.

Makes people think.

All in good fun.
Yes of course... this is just another untrue, "I wish" rumor.


John

Not a Neunism,
I'm just following in the footsteps of another...

Although, maybe it would be best if I stopped.

I have to agree with those who say that this sounds like the rumor about the simpsons, the more I think about it the more I think that broadcast FIRST is going to stay as webcasts, at least for a long time, but none the less I would love to see this come true.

Of course you should agree... JVN admitted so in the posts 1 and 4 above yours.

John,

You are a dork.

(But yes, it would be awesome.)

Amanda

p.s. What if Dumpling Island went on TV?

Isn't there some Extreme House show on the Travel Channel, Discovery, TLC, or HGTV or something like that? Could it be on one of those shows?

JVN: Amanda, you gotta help me! I know you guys have an extra drill motor and we just broke our last one!

AM: *chuckles* Right! Just like FIRST on the Simpsons, right?

JVN: I'm serious! We're going up against 71 and won't be able to compete without it!

AM: Ah John, you always were a funny guy!
