I walked into a conversation our president was having with some other staff. She's looking for a team-building exercise. Her favorite, so far, is a Top Chef kind of thing - staff's broken down into teams, assigned a specific ingredient (or ingredients) and then has to make a dish in a set amount of time.
oy ... I'd say kill me now, but at least it's not the MMPI
Toddson - could be worse. Several years ago we had to do Fear Factor style eating contests involving crackers and such, where contestants fed each other. And that was during the SARS scare.
That day is why I can't watch The Office, in fact.
ew ...just ... ew
I've been through worse, and with this at least there'll be food. But still ... don't know if I trust some of these people with sharp knives.
In Idol ridiculous speculation news, I think Crystal and Lee are in LURVE and are going to be, like, an Idol super couple. It would be cute, anyway. And she just broke up with her boyfriend, so.

Kathy A, I just saw the Antiques Roadshow episode with the Washoe baskets that you mentioned earlier... thanks for the link about the resolution of the research for at least one of the baskets.
Reminder--SYTYCD is on both Wednesday and Thursday nights this week, two hours each.
Oh, we're starting with a pretty blond cheerleader. she's going to vegas.
eta: told ya!
ZOMG I hated that. Thee Dollhouse is two doors down, sweetheart.
I'm a little surprised the gymnast wasn't sent to choreography. I would think that partnering would be new and a test of her adaptability.
And let me specify that I have a lot of respect for good burlesque and pole dancing.
Skeevy Dudes. Do not fondle the Deeley. Or make her fondle you.
The rhythmic gymnast - it just looked like a series of tricks, to me. But it was enough for the judges.
Cristina - solid Latin dancer. Wasn't surprised by her partner not making it through.
Taylor - I liked how she danced on the edge of control, but she clearly fell short in the choreo round. And I feel for her, but boy am I tired of the stories.
Alexie - oh hell yes. The way she danced, the joy of her movement, even her outfit all fit the song.
Beret tap chica - I agreed with Nigel. The tapping was way too heavy for the song. But the talent was clear.
