And the juxtaposition of Alex and Mookie scurrying down the beach while Cassandra and Stacy reveal that they real didn't hear anything at all.

Miss Alli's recap from last week is up. For about the nineteenth time I'm wishing I wasn't so fast on the delete, because I'd really love to rewatch some of that.

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

I'm getting very frustrated with the American Idol web page. Does anyone know if the closing song "American Prayer" is available to download? I had to switch over to Lost and missed most of it.

Art Crawl!!!

Top Chef: Bravo has season 3 cheftestants on their website.

Apparently, TC3 starts in mid-June so my guess is that the next Project Runway starts in August/September.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Why are we getting another Top Chef before another Project Runway? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

I don't know. My guess would be that Project Runway is stronger than Top Chef so it's starting in/around the traditional new season starting time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And Project Runway has to schedule around fashion week, too.

Our wings are not tired

Anyone else watch the Ninja edition of Mythbusters this week? I have a few issues with how they did their tests.

First of all, they keep using themselves as the example of the best humans could do...um...yeah, I'm pretty sure there are humans with faster reflexes and that are stronger than the M5 crew.

Also, on the arrow catch it seems that they jumped from it not working to a totally extreme end of the scale to fix it. I was thinking that it might also not be a straight catch but that the person catching might be sweeping their hand towards the arrow to catch it and that could have an impact on the testing.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Mythbusters: I always have issues with how they do their tests. Also, they totally should have had a Japanese ninja expert. Also, also, isn't it totally funny how Grant was so serious about being the fastest/bestes of them to gauge against; it was a matter of pride.

But yeah, definitely could have used some other testing to set the reflex range. Reflexes are something that really vary widely. And that's the problem with mechanical testing. It takes out all the human variables, which, okay, good for consistency, but not necessarily representative.

Although I guess since I'm a direct line descendant of samurai, I should just say, neener neener, ninja peasant class!
