I love the bowtie geek. Soo cute. Who would've thunk Ashton Kutcher would put out a show so warm and fuzzy?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I kind of wish the male/female switcheroo were half and half (if you see what I'm trying to say), but maybe next season...

I do see and agree. I would've liked for a half girl beauties/half girl geeks (and vice versa) thing. I think it's kind of unfair to the girl geek. But I do enjoy this show. It helped to wash away the stank from the BB finale last night which I caught the tail end of only to see if America would take it all the way and give Dick the win. Sigh. I guess you'll never go wrong betting on people's baser instincts to win through. I think this season put me off BB for good.

Cheerier thought: Cycle 8 of ANTM starts tonight. Oh, what goodies Tyra will brink this season! Asperger's Syndrome? Bring it, bitches. I can't wait to see what Ms. Jay does with that one.

AM SO EXCITED!!!

Now, is the whole season set on a cruise ship or just tonight's episode?

I don't know. Maybe they will just cruise around all season docking at exotic ports o' call for the challenges and photo shoots. That would be fun. I wanna see somebody's weave get snatched off and thrown overboard!

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

the ship is just for the winnowing process. Once the 13 are chosen they will move into a house, I think.

OK, thank goodness there's some discussion of whether Sarah is plus size or not. Because seriously.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Anyone else catch Kid Nation?

Seriously, seriously. If she's plus size, then I'm a monkey's uncle. She could not be more than a size 8/10. There's no way she's plus size.

I'm underwhelmed by this crop. Ebony's schtick was tired three Cycles ago, and you're never gonna out-bitchcrazy rubbing your dirty drawers all over somebody's bed, so what are you left with? So many obviously cast for the drama - Heather (Asperger's girl), Lisa (I'm in love w/a stripper girl). I did enjoy the red head (short hair - not purple bangs) and I liked they Yalie, although agreed with Ms. Jay that she is a little horsey.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I saw about five mintues of it, aurelia, and turned it off. Based on that thorough analysis, it looked like alternating spells of deadly dull and deeply disturbing. Turns out it's quite a different experience when it's not someone's inner twelve-year-old on display for the world to see.
