No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Big Brother: Aw, I feel bad for poor dumb Jessica -- Jen talking crazy about Dustin, Eric trying to avoid talking, and the poor noodle doesn't have two brain cells to rub together.

HK's winner, Rock, was interviewed on Talk of the Nation on NPR this afternoon. Apparently, the restaurant he's been working at is a DC favorite.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Rocco's response made me wonder if Bourdain's point is that Rocco is a better chef than he is.

That was Bourdain's point: he is not dishonoring a great talent by being a writer and tv travel show guy but Rocco did dishonor his talent by being that reality show guy.

SYTYCD: So much filler. And it's only just beginning.

Less filler than tomorrow, though...

I'm annoyed that Dan is one of the judges. Bleah. He just bores me.

Yeah, I'm almost tempted to finish watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire so I can watch this later and fast forward through all the garbage.
