Oh, I forgot to say this earlier re: the top chef finale. As I recall, the first course was supposed to be vegetarian, so why the fuck did Angelo use pork belly and Ed used cockles? And why was that okay?
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think it was supposed to be "a vegetable course" not necessarily a vegetarian one. Angelo did get dinged for not making vegetables the focus, IIRC.

Well, they did both lose, so maybe it wasn't OK.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just saw Survivor. The first couple of episodes each season are never my favorites, as I don't know anybody, but I like the Old vs Young angle, as it keeps the "vote the old people out first" mentality from playing a part.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I am crossing my fingers this all makes sense in an hour and a half...:) I can't believe I'm going to keep watching this dang show, after all the suckage.

The Top Chef reunion is worth it solely for the extra gag footage of the judges.
