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

They'll be in two teams of five next week. I can't see that going well, not this season.

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

There was not much to distinguish the top 3 from the safe, uh, five I guess?

This is a big problem this season. And the drama queens are not making it interesting, they are distracting!

Punishingly Intricate

I was surprised that Kimberly's or Anya's weren't in the top.

Me too. Those were my two favorites.

Because books.

There's a new show on Cooking Channel called Cooking School Confidential that looks pretty good. It's about different students in Johnson and Wales's program, and it's (refreshingly) documentary style rather than competition or melodrama.

PR: I don't think I've ever seen such an obvious blowout in a team challenge. From the concept to the execution to the video presentation, the winning team was just amazing.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Art Crawl!!!

Yes - that was an amazing contrast. And I am so sick of Joshua. Sick. Of. Him. When they had the section where he talked about missing his family? FFed through it - that's how sick of him I am.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I missed about 2-3 eps of this season, so I am not sick of Josh, but I found his behavior really odious. He is among those who I strongly believe should not have been cast on a reality show. He needs some professional assistance without the stress of a tv show.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes - I thought Betsy's analysis of him was both very generous (given his behavior to her) and very astute.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I understand they're doing an America's Next Top Model All-Star version.
