Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

What Bourdain says about next week:
There will be a SlaughterFest of Horror, an Orgy of Bloodletting, Partial Nudity, Flammable Liquids, Unspeakable Misuse of Power Tools and Small Woodland Creatures, and the Plaintive Wailing of the Doomed. It will make Altamont look like Lilith Fair.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
TC I am sooo glad Howie is finally gone! I agree with you Sumi that he knew he was leaving anyway, and tried to pretend he had some control over it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That was basically what he was saying in the wait-around room -- fuck them if they want to fire me, I quit!

Ooh, from Ted's blog:
It’s been two weeks and I’m still bummed about voting off Tre -- all of the judges thought he was a strong contender to win the whole gonza magilla. (Although I just got some exciting news about Tre today that I can’t publish; just know that good things continue for Chef Wilcox -- I’ll share the news when I can.)

I can't believe the promo saying that the spam and eggs goes perfectly with a Bombay Sapphire cocktail. Seriously??
ha! Bombay Sapphire cocktails go well with EVERYTHING! (If Bravo is to be believed.)
Did anyone watch the Tim Gunn thing after Top Chef? Was it the whole first ep of his show? I thought the premiere was tonight.

It was a sneak peak and I didn't watch it because I had to go watch the Roddick-Federer match. What an excellent night of tennis!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
lisah - it was the whole first episode.
I thought it was interesting, similar to the What Not to Wear format, and yet a more, all encompassing approach. At least with this woman. She even met with a life coach. And the gifts on top of the clothes!!! Sign me up!!!!

I DVRed the hour whatever it was. And then couldn't fall asleep because (among other things) I was obsessing about what Tim Gunn would tell me about my fashion and whether, if they came to help me out, if they could also bring a carpenter to redo my effed up room where most of my clothes are. He would be appalled by it!
I didn't watch it because I had to go watch the Roddick-Federer match. What an excellent night of tennis!
I don't watch tennis at all but I'm always pleased when Roddick does well because our parents are friends. Our dads were in the army together.

Seriously? How cool.
He played EXCELLENTLY last night. If he had been playing any other guy in the world he would have won -- but he was playing Federer so - it went to a tie-break in the first two sets - each of which Federer won and then even though Roddick got the first break point - Federer (in the 3rd set) got the first break which put him up enough that Roddick just couldn't catch up. It was good -- but must surely be frustrating for Roddick to be playing the best he has only to lose.
