Power plants have grating floors. Heels get stuck in them. Guys on the floor below can look up your skirt. (This doesn't worry me unduly, but the distraction irritates their supervisors.) I had more the one supervisor who thought that I should go to plants to do research for articles while wearing a skirt, jacket and heels. That would be what I was wearing when I left the office. By the time I got to the plant, it was slacks and sensible shoes.
Bunnies frighten me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Note that I haven't watched any of this Survivor.

bon bon - CBS did a similiar thing when the "next on" clearly showed Parvati cut her finger but the ads during the week tried to make it a surprise and even blurred out who was getting medical treatment.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Oh, I completely forgot that they teased that non-event! My goodness that was gross and meaningless.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Ditto. I tried to stream it online, but CBS really hates Mac's. You get about 20 seconds of play for 2 minutes of buffering. meh! Saw the 1st episode that way. Then booted into WinXP to watch episode 2. Worked much better, but then I had to be in Windows. eh. Haven't watched since. Maybe this weekend I'll have a marathon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also I was thinking that this season the contestants have been the best fed. The show got away from making them all eat just rice a season or two ago. I can't remember if each tribe started off with a fishing spear or they had to win, that but between the fishing and the coconuts they seem much better fed. I wonder if this was decision becuase it really wasn't that fun watching survivors eat nothing but rice.

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
I guess when I heard that I wasn't really counting the final one as one of the three.
Oh, wait. This is how they're dealing with that pesky "even numbered jury" issue, too.

Fun for who? I liked it fine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I only watch streaming TV on my Mac (fuck you very much, Fox), and CBS has been pretty unproblematic for me. NBC could take away the overall crown if it had more of its shows to stream, since its app is nice, and makes skipping ahead very easy. But CBS has the edge on material.
