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

Were they told specifically that it had to be an entree? I didn't catch that.

Not to be all Captain Sav-a-HoHeatmiser, but I think whats-her-name was the one who was totally provoking all that bs. I could see why Marcel was being an ass while she was cooking.

ETA: I also found it very interesting that Elia had worked with him and was backing him up. Though more in theory than in fact so far, as far as I can tell.

Right. If Elia was really backing him, she wouldn't be whispering when she told him that she always defended him

Also, Marcel whines a lot about everything. He bitched and moaned about the fryer, blaming Mikey for dropping the temperature of the oil, as if he'd done it on purpose. Not that I don't think that Betty overreacted, but she a lot of what she said, I agreed with.

Even if Betty was wrong, it was still wrong of Marcel to say that he was trying to throw her off of her game. She left him alone while he was cooking, she was mindful of Sam cooking and asked Marcel to leave it until Sam was done so that he could concentrate, which was nice.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Pie chart humor.

David, the box arrived -- thank you!!! I am overwhelmed with musicness!

Yay! After you've listened to a few, let me know if you've made any fun discoveries.

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

Vortex, I noticed that on Bones too! I was also entertained by
Yes and completely! The Hyperion made me smile wistfully and then the muscles made me smile filthily. Good times.

Then I watched Criminal Minds and just got creeped the hell out.

CMinds was seriously creeptastic.

I just finished a chapter that involved having to do a lot of research because it is on a tool I don't touch very often. I then discovered the tool doesn't work. I reported it. So now we're discussing eliminating the tool altogether. well, that was a good two hours potentially wasted.

yes it was, especially when the girl was saying "it'll be like the soccer players in the Andes" and then the other girl hit her with a hammer. Cree-pee.

Want to know something horrible? I laughed at that part. I really wondered if they (the show) were going to carry the whole scenario through because dear lord that's icky.

But the actual moment itself, with the quote, outside of the creepifying? Oy. Snort.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I actually didn't expect them to go all the way this time. I expected it would be all teevee and there would be the last second save . But the story, anvil-y as it was, needed that.

Oh dear jeebus, I am thinking about story on CM? And talking about it on the internets? The hell? This was my show because of the pretty and the profiling, not the narrative flow.
