We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Did anyone watch this week's Antiques Roadshow yet? I saw it last night, and the final appraisal was terrific. A woman was planning on helping her daughter decorate her new condo, and when her husband called her to say that he saw a decent-looking couch waiting for the garbage truck down the road, she and her mom hopped in the pickup and headed over. After checking with the couch's owner to make sure he was tossing it out, she asked if he had anything else, when he pointed to the rented dumpster on the side of his house and told her to go ahead and look through it. Her mom went dumpster-diving and pulled out several bags that ended up having what looked like a collection of Native Indian rugs. She brought several of them to the Roadshow, and one was pulled out for the appraisal.

Turns out, it was worth $125,000-150,000!! That might be the highest priced dumpster rescue they've had on the show.

I like the show. The contestants are kind of, strange, but that doesn't bother me. It is kind of nice seeing a different personality type on tv.

Dude! Isaac Mizrahi on Top Chef! It's a double shot of reality goodness in one place!

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

I have to say Isaac has so grown on me this last season. Between him and Iman, they've almost got it over PR this year.

And it could have been Mike I. ! Argh.

That was a fun one. I've never been to Rao's, and now I want to go. There are so many places like that in New York, and you get the BEST homemade, and homey, Italian food. And generally wonderful, attentive service, like you're one of the family.
