Yes, that would have been good. I also enjoyed the people who got a kick out of spending the night in a museum.
Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Because books.
Jen's behavior appalled me. There's defending your work and there's being rudely arrogant, and I thought she was the latter. Plus really dismissive and snarky of the other team.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Did you all hear about the contest they ran in Chicago (I thing just for teachers) where the winner got to spend an entire month living in the Museum of Science and Industry? Too cool.

The Sing-Off: This show is killing me! The second bracket was brutal! They were all so, so good! I really hope they do away with the brackets next week. Love, love, love Committed and Streetcorner Symphony. Groove for Thought is pretty phenomenal as well.
Top Chef: Jen's behavior was so surprising. I was sad to see her acting like that especially considering she was my favorite.

Sing-off is worth watching just to see the complete meltdown Shawn has every time Committed sings. It's a thing of beauty.
Also, his hair terrifies me, but I love Ben Folds Five.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I agree. Committed is really an excellent group. I thought their performance was just wonderful.
flea, I was just going to write that I would love to get my shears on Ben Folds. There is no reason his hair needs to look like that.
No reason.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I swear I tried to tune in for Sing-Off, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what time it's on. I suck at this non-Tivo thing. I need to get my damned box in to a phone line.
It says, 8/7c. That usually means 8 Eastern and delayed to 8 Pacific, right? And 7 Central, and Damn You, Mountain. And of course, Arizona is none of those, but it's sometimes Mountain and sometimes Pacific. Right now it's Mountain. So it should have been 9, because I generally get West Coast delays? But it wasn't on then. So maybe it was 6? But last time I tuned in at 6 and it wasn't on for two more hours! So that would have made it 8 my time, which makes no sense, unless I was getting my own special Mountain delay? In which case it should have still been on when I tuned in at 9, because it's two hour? Right?
Argh. This is why I can't watch television.

I watched it this morning on the NBC Web site

Yeah, I don't have the bandwidth. Pout.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Top Chef -
Okay, first of all THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A BRONTOSAURUS. Good lord, how did AMNH let them get away with that?
Second of all, I'm concerned about Jen. Her dish looked *terrible* and her behavior, well...I'm pretty sure she was high at Judges' Table. She wasn't just obnoxious, she was off somehow. So I hope she gets whatever help she needs now that she's off the show.
Third of all, while Team Apatasaurus' food definitely looked tastier than Team T-Rex's, it wasn't particularly breakfasty. Did everyone assume someone else was going to make the pancakes, or did they collectively decide it just wasn't worth it without butter?
