Fans of That '70s Show have long thought that Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher made a cute couple on-screen. Now a real life couple, it's clear they have an intense chemistry that many assumed kicked into high gear AFTER Ashton's divorce from Demi Moore. Well, turns out things between the costars sparked long before then. In fact, Demi may have never had a chance of keeping Ashton.

Almost from the moment Mila and Ashton set foot on the That '70s Show set in 1998, they were smitten. And another of the show's stars, Laura Prepon, says that Ashton was actually Mila's first kiss. He has said that he had no idea at the time and was glad he didn't because that would have added to the pressure.

The lip lock was written into the script. Ashton's memory of the pivotal scene? "I was so nervous," he said. "She acted so cool. She seemed as if she'd done it a thousand times. I was the one with the butterflies in my stomach. I mean, here's this little girl and I have to kiss her. It was nerve-racking." In actuality, they both were incredibly nervous about it. "I had the biggest crush on him," she has admitted.

Sweet story, to be sure. It all makes one thing painfully clear -- his marriage to Demi may have always been doomed. She could never compete with those long-held feelings and that history, if he pined for Mila all these years. Now that they are in a relationship, it is clear they are nearly perfect for each other. Both like a low-key, laid-back lifestyle. They can make each other laugh, and they seem to know each other well. Word is, they are both officially off the market and they may even get engaged soon.

Do you think Ashton has always wanted Mila?

Amber Portwood's Early Release Date Means She’s Turning It All Around in Jail

Amber Portwood was the Jenelle Evans of the first round of Teen Mom. She and her baby daddy Gary had an ugly relationship that involved domestic violence, among other things. She also ended up in jail as of June 15, 2012 for her drug addiction, among other issues.

What a difference a year makes. Word on the street is that Portwood has made a real turnaround in prison. Though she was sentenced to five years, she may be getting out in October, and she has done a lot of work toward getting her GED, which could mean big things ahead for her.

Portwood clearly did the right thing by going to prison. And believe me, I NEVER thought I would say that. Maybe Jenelle could learn from her?

I have to hand it to Amber, this is what she said all along. She said if she went to prison, she could turn it all around, and sure enough, that is what she has done.

It's not perfect. After all, she doesn't have her GED YET, but she is making progress. And she is going to get out. And she has successfully avoided other pitfalls and kicked the drug habit. Now, of course, what happens after prison is anybody's guess, but if she can survive (and THRIVE) behind bars, she can do the same outside, too.

Amber always struck me as a person who genuinely did want to get it together. While every season seems to have its own "tragic" case, maybe there will be a happy ending for Amber after all.

Jenelle? It's anyone's guess. But I'm not holding my breath. She just doesn't seem to want it as badly. Still, if Amber can do it, anyone can. If it takes jail to kick the addiction to crappy men, drugs, and anger, then bring it.

Now, we just get to see who gets to wear season 3's crown of disgrace. As of August 26, we will know ... 

Do you think Amber will make it out of prison?

Motherhood Means Accepting That Kids Are Just Really Gross

For his mom's sake, I hope this is mud and not dog poo!I have always had a weak stomach. Even watching my grandmother eat a banana used to turn my stomach. I think that is why I avoided changing diapers until I actually had a child. Despite my history, everyone told me it would all change once I had a kid of my own. That somehow, miraculously, poop and other messes would no longer bother me.  Sure, that was the case the first month, but as soon as it gained a little more substance and became more pungent, I dreaded it. I'm not going to lie, there were times when I retched. Bottom line is kids can be pretty icky at times. Can you relate? Be honest!

For every mom it's different. Skinned knees, boogers, vomit, drool. The list of possible messes is endless. One CafeMom member was totally freaked out by the thready skin hanging from her daughter's gums after she lost a tooth.

I have one mommy friend who dreads dinner time. “It’s so gross,” she always complains about her two kids' eating habits. I realized exactly what she was talking about after sitting across from them during a barbecue. To this day I have no idea how their plates ended up with so much spit and chewed food on it. Ugh.

Sadly, it only gets grosser as they get older. The nose is an endless source of nausea for me. I don't even want to think about what I will find in my son's room once he hits puberty. I guess we easily eeked out moms can find solace in the fact that all parents go through this to some extent.  There is no way to avoid this stuff. You just have to get through it. I hear it’s better once they hit 18. We just have to hold on until then.

What do your kids do that grosses you out?
