Did anyone else watch "The Next Food Network Star"? It was supposed to repeat at 11 pm central so I turned it on and it appears to have started earlier than that -- is that right? When did the first run end?

-t, does NBC still have the FNL eps online? That's how I watched the entire season. Of fabulousness.

Wonderful pictures of Grace, Noah and company!

The sad thing is that this first assignment really rocks and I'm sad to have missed it. ( It's a "Dinner Impossible" sort of task and Chef Irvine is the main judge/mentor type person. )

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love reading into baby pictures. In that one, lori, she's coldly insistent that she not be ignored just because she can't wail like her brother.

She slept all through my visit last week, and her brother was too caught up in setting his monitor's alarms off. I can't believe how much different they look just seven days later.

On the list of things I shouldn't be doing: Reading this list of the 25 saddest songs in the world.

My personal saddest list would have "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye" and "Strange Fruit" (although I've never heard it all the way through) and a touch more music from my own childhood, which is to say reggae.

Why are top X lists so addictive? Now I have to go read all the others on that site.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Man, good day for pictures of babies!

Oooh, I don't know, Jen, but I'll check now.

You can have lots of fun reading into this one.

See, they aren't always cute. Just mostly.

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

Nope, still cute. tragical, but cute.

Listening to Space Oddity thanks to ita's link. I had a Major Tom-like dream once, except I got to come back from my lonely (though not deadly) space exile to go to the drugstore. So, sort of a different ending.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"Strange Fruit" (although I've never heard it all the way through)

You've never heard it all the way through?

You should read the book about it. It's fascinating how that song came to be.

Scariest moment? Billie Holiday explains what it means to Maya Angelou's young son.
