Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'd like a show where I got dessert.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Just Desserts was not a healthy show for me to watch - every episode made me want brownies.

Punishingly Intricate

Dang, I'm just catching up on Work of Art and I'm kind of loving everyone. I am also super tired and work has been a complete stressball this week so maybe my defenses are down. I don't know. They are all adorable to me right now and I don't want any one eliminated!

Because books.

Work of Art: I'm unreasonably charmed by Sucklord tonight.

And I have a big problem with the judges' take on what's a good interpretation and what's not. I don't think visually imitating what the kids did is good art, necessarily -- I think taking the kid's piece you were given and responding/reacting to it is valid. Especially in Tewz's case.

I sort of agree about Sucklord's, though. It's so literal, just a 3D mock-up of the child's painting, that there really isn't much response (or much of him) there at all.

No I have to really catch up on Work of Art so I don't get accidentally spoiled for it! But I'm too tired to watch tonight's. (I LOVE THE SUCKLORD, btw)

Ack, I thought I had Sing-Off taped, but it turns out I didn't. Crankypants.

Okay, Jean, thanks!
