Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I've never heard it as one.

perhaps context would be helpful?
Meh, I deleted. The whole paragraph is dumb.
I tried to watch Hell's Kitchen last season, but when it looked like he was going to make them either eat or cook out of a dumpster, I had to change the channel. It was too watch from the hall for me
IIRC, he didn't do either. He just brought them out to the dumpsters to emphasize how much food had been thrown away the night before because of their incompetence.
My second favorite part of HK is the Narrator. He is made of awesome.
I have a slight touch of insomnia. But, however, I came across a Reuters UK article saying that the military tribunals in Guantanamo have come to a screeching halt:
U.S. military judges dropped all war crimes charges on Monday against the only two Guantanamo captives facing trial, rulings that could preclude trying any of the 380 prisoners held at the U.S. base in Cuba any time soon.
The judges said they lacked jurisdiction under the strict definition of those eligible for trial by military tribunal under a law the U.S. Congress enacted last year.
"It's another demonstration that the system simply doesn't work," said the tribunals' chief defence counsel, Marine Col. Dwight Sullivan.
You know, when the judges are throwing up their hands and saying this is unworkable and illegal, the whole enterprise is frelled.
Anyone want to bet that BushCo will just try to get 'better' judges?
Kind of abrupt after the judges but I wanted to say thanks for all the birthday wishes for Ellie. She had, I think, a great day. She ate a huge dinner (spaghetti) and earlier in the day, had a great time at daycare playing for a few hours.
I woke up early again this morning, and may actually make it to work early this time! It's "clean up day," so we get to wear casual clothes, but I still have a ton of Actual Work to do, which is kind of annoying -- one government deadline, one (phone) meeting called by people outside our org. But I'm still wearing capris and a t-shirt!
