Here is more proof for my often-admitted warped sense of humor ~ there is a poll at the end-link that asks: "Whom do you feel sorry for?" ~ the choices are: Kate, Sarah, the kids, Alaska, none of the above, or all of the above ~ I voted for 'Alaska" ~  ~ Sooz

Kate Gosselin: 'Miserable' camping trip with Sarah Palin

Camping probably seemed like a good idea, especially to the execs at TLC.

But as it turned out, Kate Gosselin didn't enjoy her outdoor outing with Sarah Palin at all, as shown on last night's Sarah Palin's Alaska.

The buzz this morning is all about what a whiner Kate was. Or, as Sarah Palin's father said, Gosselin "bitched from the moment she got off the plane."

Here's how the camping scene went, with Kate sitting in the rain:

"I'm worried about my toes; they're freezing."

"I've been bitten [by bugs] about 200 times — it's horrible."

"I'm miserable, but somebody's gotta be."

"This is cruel and unusual punishment."

And finally, "This is ridiculous!" she shrieked. "I just don't get it! There are no paper towels! I'm freezing to the bone, I have 19 layers on, my hands are frigid! ... I held it together as long as I could, and I'm done now."

She made the kids pack up and leave, opting not to stay out overnight as planned. When they objected, she said, "OK, goodbye. You're now a Palin, not a Gosselin." That prompted them to follow their mom to a plane that took them out of there.

First-hand experience tells me that camping isn't for everyone... especially in a place like Alaska. People don't realize just how harsh the environment is and I have lots of stories to tell about some pretty sad outcome(s) for those who think it's an easy night out. Kate Gosselin should be thankful she got out of there with a bit of a chill and some bug bites. I've witnessed far worse...

Kate and Sarah both are media creations and darlings within their own minds.

Could've just stopped the thread title at this:

"Kate Gosselin: 'Miserable'

Both belong on "twit"ter
