I think it is time to ask Heath/Jackie to delete the entire thread, and also kick the OP off of CC, she doesn't deserve to be a member.
Anybody agree/disagree?
Completely AGREE!!
I second that!
When I think of the decorators who may have really needed assistance with real problems this weekend who couldn't even make the first page and have any hope of receiving help because of this drivel, my blood boils. 
Ya well, that sucks! I really don't like spending so much time reading one thread and then find out it was completely fabricated. What I can't figure out is what exactly would be the OP motive? What could she gain? Oh well, on to bigger and better things...
Oh, and Mel...you know we'll all be after you to find out who the "blind monkey" decorator is! lol jk

Attention...
Wow, did she really have nothing better to do than write a story, search the internet for some obscure Australian cake and photoshop it? Wow, OP, your life must be super boring to make up fake lives.
To who ever found the photograph, that is amazing! There are millions of cake photos on the internet and you came across it. Good job!
OK here comes my *cynical* side again............. 
Can't help but notice you just joined yesterday and your signature line says *here for the drama*, not to mention your screen name *officerMorgan*.........so I'll be the one to ask cause I know the others are all wondering......
Are you the OP incognito?.............................. 
Those cakes are exactly the same--every single detail. So the OP photoshopped color onto a cake from the internet and made up the story?
Why in the world would you do that? Everybody in this forum is SO nice and helpful all the time--why would you exploit that? How WEIRD.
Let's see, really long thread, lots of drama, opinion of the masses vacillating from support of the the OP to suspicion...
It's OE all over again!
Let me know when Chocolate Man shows up!
I hope you'll excuse my ignorance but what is OE? And who is the Chocolate Man?

Bwahahahahaha! Stranger things.....
I believe CCer's have been duped. I found the "actual" cake that the OP posted. It's from Heidelberg cakes in Australia. Here's the link, http://www.heidelbergcakes.com.au/d399/6-tier-cake-with-sugar-roses. I had suspicions from the beginning.
Well I'll be damned........my suspicions proved correct again!! How the heck did you find that?
You definitely deserve the *Colombo* award for great detective work!
I bet we never hear back from the OP after this little development. She'll have to come up with a new screen name.
Great job MCC!!
Thanks! After the MOG story, I did a little Google detective work.
Congratulations MCC 
Great work!
I just have to wonder, why bother making something like that up? What a weird hobby
Too bad, it was amusing anyway. At least we all got a little education on how check pullbacks work!
Agreed - I can't help but wonder WHY also...
Yes - it was an amusing romp for everyone - but what happens the next time someone needs help/support/advice. Instead of the warm comforting embrace of CC, they will be treated with cynicism and doubt.
Sad day....
It's OE all over again!
Let me know when Chocolate Man shows up!
The post was "Officially Embarrassed" (ok, so my spelling is terrible!!!!)
and SOMEONE (Edna, you naughty girl!!!!) posted a photo of an absolutely beautiful man covered in melted chocolate!!!! Too yummy!!!!!
whats OE, and whos the chocolate man?[/quote]
I'm with PattyT. That is why I do not post too much any more. It is not like it used to be!
Okay - this has been bothering me since I saw the pic was posted by the OP.
Does anyone else think this looks like it has had the hue adjusted in PhotoShop?
Original Pic
Here it is in white:
You gotta to be kidding. God dsevans, GET A LIFE! even the shadows are the same.
LOL! We're a bunch of Patsies!
We spent our entire weekend stalking this thread to get any morsel of gossip we could, only to find out we're being duped!
I can't help but laugh at myself!!
I think we're more irritated at the fact that we were so gullible and less so at the fact that the OP did a pretty good job of reeling us in- hook, line and sinker...here's the real kick in the teeth:
SHE'S THE BRIDE!! LOL!
I'm not amused. A fake! But it was such a good story. I bet it's one of our husbands just trying to get our feathers ruffled. I know my hubby enjoyed my reaction to the op's story. I don't know if I'm gonna tell him it was a lie. He would just laugh at me.
Good work, detectives.

Oh no. Now I'm sad.
And I really liked that MOG, too!
What!!! this story has a different twist now?? it's a hoax??!! OMG now I have to keep on reading
I'm dissapointed if this is a hoax 
I wanted that bride to be taken to court!!!

Why? It's just like someone "saying" they can bake, torte, fill, ice and decorate a cake in 3 hours. If we believe them then we're the ones that should have our heads checked.
You didn't lose anything but a few of your work days and sleep hours, but that was your choice. We weren't forced to stay glued to the computer trying to get the latest gossip, we chose to do so. Suck it up and accept the fact we got the wool pulled over our eyes. Don't make it a big dramatic event. We just now know we can't believe most of what the OP says anymore.
OMG!! This is hilarious. I'm sorry..i'm not mad..this is just too funny! And I was going to share this story with a lawyer/caterer friend.
PLEASE...PLEASE...DO NOT DELETE THIS POST! Please leave it up for the world to see. DSEVANS had a link to her site in SEARCY, ALABAMA..(if that is really her website..which it probably IS NOT).
Dang...whoever found the picture of the the real cake..BRAVO TO YOU!
I can't help but laugh at myself!!...
Yep! me, too!
Y'all remember that Twilight Zone episode where the neighborhood started losing power and within minutes, all the neighbors had formed a big conspiracy theory about who was friend and foe.... man, we were sucked right into the Twilight Zone!
I better put a stop payment on that check I wrote to buy the Brooklyn Bridge!
...here's the real kick in the teeth: SHE'S THE BRIDE!! LOL!
oh that would be too funny!
LOL! We're a bunch of Patsies! We spent our entire weekend stalking this thread to get any morsel of gossip we could, only to find out we're being duped!

That's what I was thinking too. I even told my family about it yesterday at dinner. Although I probably shouldn't say that since attention always gives these aholes exactly what they want.
I have to admit..I was glued to the thread as well.If it is a hoax...this person has too much time of their hands but at least it gave up food for thought....
Back to the real threads that make a difference!!
