"They'll be faced with the task of divvying up the hundreds of possessions they've amassed over the years, such as the Barbie Bubble Bath, the Barbie Camper, the Barbie Townhouse and the Barbie Sun N Sand 4x4 vehicle."

Sounds like the JohnKerry/Theresa Heinz marriage,everything is in her name.

Doing bad things to a Ken doll has been a running joke among me and some girlfriends for about 10 years.

He showed up in a tiny stitched gold-lame' thong at the wedding shower of one of them, as "the stripper".
He appeared floating on a raft in the punch bowl of the baby shower of another one.

And when one got married we went looking for a tux for him to attend the wedding in. We couldn't find one, but did find a wedding gown that (sort of) fit. So Ken went to the wedding in drag, earrings, shoes, veil, and all. We had to leave the dress open in the back, though.

He had a place of honor seated in the foliage on the mantle behind the bride and groom, and ended up in most of the pictures. He also made an appearance on the dance floor that night...

Probably before you were born, there was a move, The Groove Tube. It was made way before Chevy Chase was even on SNL; he and a bunch of his friends made it and it was basically skits.

The one I remember the most was one about Barbie and Ken and it had a little poem with it.

The poem ended with:

Everybody said
their marriage was a failure
Because neither
Ken or Barbie had any genitalia

Now every time I see one of them....well, you know. :-)

Tragically, Barbie walked in on Ken and his friend Steve in their Townhouse last week and realized......the two had lied about their fishing trips for the last 43 years..... :o

To tell the truth, Ken didn't like Barbie's new makeover:

You have the story all wrong. GI Joe was indeed involved, but not how you think:

Mom asks her daughter what she wants for Christmas. Her daughter asks for a Barbie and a GI Joe.

Mom replies "Honey, you know Barbie comes with Ken."

The Daughter replies "No, Mom. Barbie FAKES it with Ken, she comes with GI Joe."

Ken must have found out!

Is Barbie going to go lesbian now? Will we see her hook up with Skipper or Midge?

Wow, puppage, where did you find the two oldies? That Barbie doll on the left goes back to my childhood. And that Ken head isn't fitting really well on that body.

Wonder if he ever lost his head?
Hmm

Now, where did I read that?  Was it Hedda Hopper?  Louella Parsons?  Talullah Drudge?
Pffft!  It's all the same person.   Anyway, after Barbie got wind of Ken negotiating with GI Joe for a Hummer, we knew it was only a matter of time.
