Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Did you see Joe's? It seems to be predominantly comprised of bustiers and insane crotches.

OH! I forgot that he showed also. I'll have to check that out.

This model seems to have the same opinion of this dress that I do.

That's a gorgeous fabric, though. What a waste.

I looked through some of the collections. I have to say I found much to dislike in everyone's collections. Suede's absolutely sucked. I actually like a lot of Jerrel's. Korto wasn't too bad. I'm trying to keep in mind, that for a lot of these outfits, they had specific directions on what they had to make, so I'm giving them a pass on some of the really crappy stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not for the final collections, they didn't -- or is that not what you're talking about?

As my friend said, "I would NOT want Mr J putting some stank hair weave up on my head. But I will watch him do it to others."

The funniest thing to me is how visible Tyra's wig is in that picture.

OMG, can you imagine? And what's up with E not calling them Mr. Jay and Ms. J?

Then I can say with no reservations that some of those outfits just plain sucked.

There was one pants getup in Joe's that really made me wonder if the model had a penis.

It almost made me wish he'd made the finale, just so I could hear Michael Kors talk about insane crotches again.

Oh my heavens! Tyra's lace front is busted in that photo. For shame, Ty-Ty.

On PR: I think it's kind of baloney that Jerrell even had to compete to get to the tents. In past seasons, the winner of the last challenge was in. Period. If I were Jerrell, I know I'd be salty. Having said that, I'm glad he was competing, because without him to boot, Korto would've definitely got the auf'ing and that would've been really sad.

I thought Leanne's wedding dress was beautiful and her bridesmaid's dress was cute too and really complimented the wedding gown. I thought Kenley's bridesmaid dress was cute, but it didn't look like it went with that very over the top, fantasy gown. And forget ripping off McQueen with the gown, what about ripping off centuries of productions of Swan Lake? I am over it and over her. I'll be shocked if Leanne doesn't take it all.

And in a Cap'n Crunch moment:

On Survivor: Jeff really needs to take his meds. His hate on for Fang is ruining any enjoyment I might be getting from the show. I'm spending all my time now counting the ways that Jeff injects himself into the show. He needs a time out.

Sadly, this cast sucks so even if he gets an attitude adjustment, it'll still be boring.

Don't ask me why, but I have become totally addicted to Say Yes to the Dress. It's a trainwreck of lace and ruching.
