Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh! MMaSM shocker!

I've been wondering how the judging was so varied within each episode -- I guess I forgot that the photographer picks the photo winner. Salome is more of an 80s supermodel type, don't you think? What with having actual flesh and all. And that's just not what they are looking for/expecting to see on the runway, I mean catwalk.

Because books.

If Peru (or however you spell it) is still a judge next season, I can't watch again. He's not even fun to loathe. He's just a complete fucktard, imo.

But yes, shocker! Clearly she didn't see that coming either.

That was a complete shocker on MMaSM!! And you can tell that the other three models were floored when Jonathan and Salome came back without Jordan.

I think the judges had a good point when they said that Salome has just the one expression, albeit a good one. Brandon suffers from the same problem, but I find his look less compelling. They both lucked out by being able to maneuver those shoe-skates.

I really don't like Jonathan's new look. But, Mountaha looks fabulous!

so this whole "not winning means they'll be less restricted" business is bunk.

it is now, but it was true a while back.

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

Who was booted on MMaSM? My satellite cut out at the last bit.

The going-home trips always make me sniffly. Imagine going away and coming back to your city a few months later to a PARADE. Surreal.

My sister had to go to the Gokey one in Milwaukee on Friday to take Marvin Hamlisch (pops conductor for the symphony) there. They hired him to do the introduction because someone had it in their head that he had been one of the arrangers/mentors for the show in a past season. Whoever they were thinking of, Hamlisch himself had never even heard of the show and was very confused. But there were a bunch of Packers there so she was happy enough to go.

I was totally surprised by MMaSM! But glad, because I like Salome. Still, though! I was also hella surprised that after all those pictures of Jonathan (though, maybe it wasn't as many as they edited the episode to make it seem) he didn't get so many. I was really hoping they don't kick him off. Though, at this point, I figure he'll do fine even if he doesn't win, seriously. I mostly want to know that he does OK and ends up being able to pay the rent!!!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I call bullshit that they couldn't find any pictures of him. I also couldn't believe they got rid of Jordan.

They had multiple pictures in the final six of just girls, just in underpants, so clearly they decided to "go a different way" with the shoot...
