You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The Channel, but that wasn't anywhere near the Necco factory.
THAT'S IT!!! It wasn't near the factory? Somebody lied to me!
I had to turn off Shear Genius because my friends and i watched ANTM, Pussycat Dolls (man I'm so sad that the Amazon is gone! She was my fave by far) , and the Top Design finale (totally blah!) and we were completely reality showed out. It sounds like it might be worth catching.

Thrive to spite them
After reading Sean's description I see there's a new reality tv show for me! Thank goodness for Bravo's endless reruns so it won't be hard to catch up.
I can't wait for Project Runway to return and Top Chef -- if they improve Top Chef over last season.

Shiny. I was in front of Ralph Lauren's slowly-taking-over-the-sidewalk cafe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am going to try really hard not to watch Shear Genius except on weekend marathons. I get all into the shows and insist on watching them when they air, and I should go to bed instead!

Nah. It was down on the waterfront near the Children's Museum. If you kept heading out of Boston past it, you went by the (Boston) World Trade Center and eventually you'd get to Southie (or Dorchester).

I haven't been watching Shear Genius because the promos made it look unbelievably lame. (Not that that stopped me from watching Top Design, but I have to draw the line somewhere, right?)

Top Design was bugging me a LOT. One, all of the challenges seemed completely arificial (rooms without windows of any kind, cabanas no person will ever used being judged on standards of practicality). It was really annoying to watch these idiotic challenges that could not possibly have been reflective of any kind of conditions they would ever face as designers in the real world.
Plus, in what seemed like a VERY subjective contest, the contestants were being judged by three people with the most startlingly atrocious taste in personal style. I would never take a criticism from any one of those people seriously. I'd laugh at them and point at his or her wardrobe and hair style.
I mean, all of these Bravo reality shows are subjective to one extent or another, but a hair one seems a little more concrete, they have judges with a personal style I can take seriously, and it seems difficult to come up with stupid and irrelevant challenges (which I felt basically everythin on Top Design was), though I'm sure they'll try.
Plus, Jaqueline Smith!

You know what I don't understand about the Top Design complaints? People who don't like Todd Oldham and/or Jonathan Adler. If anything, I just wanted MORE of those two crazy gays.

Seriously! I want Bravo's next TV show to be Tim Gunn, Tom Colicchio, and Jonathan Alder Sit Around A Table And Say Bitchy Things About People.
