We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

I love Nick too. I want him to win. I hope that you're prediction is right but I'm a bit worried because she is on a team with Diana and I like Diana. I wish that she had been teamed up with someone with good sewing skills because I think she has interesting ideas. (IOW, I don't want them to eliminate Diana yet -- I do consider Marla, Zulema and Diana to be on the bottom rung with Emmett hovering just above them.)

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

ita,

there are some podcasts I like, but I am VERY discriminating as a result of two bad experiences:

I learned that Mugglecast is a highly ranked podcast and there is a Reality TV podcast that I decided to download. After listening to Mugglecast (which skews a bit too young for me. It isn't really for little kids, but it isn't for anyone above age 21 either) and the Reality TV fans (which is too jokey jokey for me), I think I'll stick with NPR "talk" podcasts and my music podcasts.

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

My prediction (re: PR) is that Marla & Diana are out next week

You think that they'll eliminate two ? Hmmmm.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I listen to NPR on tech, books and movies, Kojo Nnamdi, 43 Folders (about to go after today's straw man ranting about NY resolutions) and Marvel, pretty much. NPR podcasts are confusing because I keep getting repeated embedded content. And they're the ones that gave the dumb advice about the WMF exploit.

Kojo Nnamdi,

Oh, I love him. Haven't heard him since I left Washington, I don't think.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I haven't been able to read Emmett yet. I'm unsure of how to, because last season, Jay won almost none of the challenges and then won the whole damn thing. Emmett is flying below the radar, just like Jay did, and could come into being in the final 3 and then blow everyone away. Santino is this season's Austin. He's this close to blowing his wad and then he'll be done. Then they go and have beautiful children together.

Well, Jay didn't win challenges but he did really interesting and memorable work. I'm finding Emmett's stuff really boring.

I could listen to his voice forever. Only one of his guests has irritated me, and he didn't. Just her.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

The only thing is that Emmett still hasn't shown any signs of real flair yet--those babydoll dresses, as cute as some of them are (I liked the Barbie blue one), are just repeats of the same basic design. By this point, IIRC, Jay had created that brilliant Banana Republic Art Deco dress (too bad it was too difficult to make cheaply, otherwise I think he might have beat out Wendy Pepper that week), as well as shown other flashes of his unique style.
