Because books.

TAR question: Did I lose track of someone along the way? What happened to the team of male friends, the Muslims? And weren't there twelve teams to start, and they ended with the eleventh being eliminated, or I am smoking crack?

Confused. It's so common for me.

Amyliz, in a new twist - TAR eliminiated the last team to arrive on the first day of competition.. . or Bilal and Saeed. That was the thing I didn't like up thread. I'm trying to figure out if this means we have 7 more elimination episodes or 6.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, here football didn't mess up the CBS schedule at all. TAR started at 7:30 which is when it was supposed to this week.

That's good, anyway. I am totally screwed, tv-wise, this week. I'm jettisoning shows left and right! No Justice, since Top Model is two hours, and Criminal Minds is on!

Now tagless for your comfort.

They prefer to give it after you're 4 or 6 cm, but will give it all the way up to about 8 cm of dilation. If it's given too early then it tends to stall or slow down labor. At the the end they like to taper it off so the mom can feel as she's pushing.

Recent studies have shown it doesn't really stall labor, according to my OB. Some docs don't make you wait to 4. But since it takes awhile for them to stick you, then for the meds to hit your system and start working, I could see where there would be a cut off point if delivery was imminent.

I had issues with our WB affiliate when I first started watching Buffy. We didn't have one and the UPN/WB share agreement screwed my watching Buffy & Angel back to back. It was weird and annoying.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

sumi - I hated that twist, too! Now, 2 of the teams I was initially rooting for are gone already!

I'm now rooting for the Single moms, the dad and daughternot sure about the rest yet.

And Rob and Kimberly are definitely annoying, as are the coal miner and his wife.

I was amazed that the eating fish eyes didn't seem to slow anybody down. they just pushed through it. I always hate those challenges and wish they'd eliminate them altogether.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Crap, Justice versus Criminal Minds and I am not enthralled enough with either to really choose. It's SpyDaddy vs (Catching) Psychotics. I wonder which I can count on showing reruns later...

Yeah. I think I would watch either one, but not obsessively. Although I kind of forget how much I really liked Criminal Minds, since it's been MONTHS.

I think I have to give up on my thought of watching Scrubs on Comedy Central before it's even started.

I honestly like it better, likely. But, like you said, it's been months. Okay, I am choosing Criminal Minds and the premiere will hopefully sway me. It's the second part of a two parter. I need to go find me some recaps because I can't recall where we left off.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Also since that's pretty much all they do, these anesthesiologists are very, very good at the epidural.

And, often, they are nurses and not docs. My aunt was a nurse anethesist and she and one other nurse gave 99% of the epidurals in 3 hospitals. She was very good at it.
