Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'd like them to cut off the "host" - no more manicures, tanning sessions, tooth-whitening. No more snagging money out of the till. Sell his fancy watch, make him actually work. I really disliked that guy. And the "bill collector" probably was a loan shark - obviously the restaurant wasn't making enough to support that guy's lifestyle. (yeah, I really disliked him)

I'm not sure I deserve to be rescued from my own laziness and failure to make simple phone calls, but thanks for the vibes.

if you really don't deserve it, either my tivo will screw up or I'll already be recording something and won't be able to help;)

Thrive to spite them

Survivor!

NY Waitress Chick is not going to last long. If you don't want to deal with people who are all "rah rah team!" you probably shouldn't be on Survivor.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Im catching up on Kid Nation now. My power went out last night, so I don't have the last 15.

It's interesting watching this as a teacher of 9-12 year-olds.

I hate the adult intervention. Particularly that intervention that's not about making it work, but about making better tv. The color thing sucks a lot: it's not creating unity, it's creating division. 40 is not an unworkable number, with other organizations (and the wages should be kid-decided, not adult-decided).

Also, also, tests of speed and strength are not fair indicators. Put the kids where they're the most effective. The one girl who cooks needs to cook. This is just silly.

The mugging for the camera is no fun.

And the damn teenagers are making me never want to teach Middle School.

I really wanted Ramsay to make him sell his car too, plus everything you said. He has done it on the UK version. I think he knew that would be a losing battle though. I couldn't stand him. He wasn't even good a schmoozing the costumers. The only thing he seemed good at was orderin an espresso.
