Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I only caught bits and pieces of the makeovers, but I saw Bianca quietly crying as they cut off all her hair. With her cheekbones, she should look stunning. Not to mention getting rid of that nasty pink (or whatever) hair. And the wig should help her get through the growing-out phase.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bianca was bummed out for a day or two, but definitely bounced back.

I thought Bianca handled the head shaving really well, which I was not expecting. I also think the wig is tired. She wore it to panel and it looked . . . not good.

As for Ms. Jay, is the mini-fro gonna be his thing this year? I mean, he doesn't have the ruffles or the flowers, so is he gonna let the fro grow an inch for each girl eliminated? Because that's the only way that I could get behind the abomination that is his current -do. It's soooooo bad.

I was sad to see Victoria go because I actually thought she was one of the more model-esque girls in the group. And she took good photos (Even with the wrinkly neck, I thought the face was interesting) I also adored that she sassed Twiggy, because every week with her on just reminds me how useless she is as a judge and miss the crazy that was Janice all the more. But when it got down to her and Saleisha, I knew she'd be going.

The wrinkly neck thing with Victoria sort of made me crazy -- because if they'd intended to keep her, they would have airbrushed those wrinkles out.

I noted that all of the women at panel made a point of saying how much they loved their makeovers. So they've learned that, at least, from prior seasons.

Bianca looked great with her head shaved.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Dallas Star-Telegram interview with Casey,

That's actually the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. We have the Morning News. I didn't know she was at Shinsei. That's not far from me.

Art Crawl!!!

I was told that it was Fort Worth over at WX - sorry for the mistake.

Do you like Shinsei?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Do you like Shinsei?

I know a lot of people over at TWOP prefer it to Tres' Abacus. (Am I remembering that name right?)

Oh, you know what my favorite thing was on the Top Chef reunion show? Dale saying "I always wanted a montage..." Cute.

I loved that! It was the perfect thing to say!

And Jenah makes a really bad blonde, and why does that weave look so funky when she's had it for a minute?

Hell yeah! There was something about the hair that just made her face look weirdly colored, and that's not right.

And I did think Ambreal looked nice with her natural hair, but the makeover wasn't TERRIBLE, at least.

And I, too, was sad Victoria went home. She was really pretty, and even if annoying, at least memorable, y'know? Her picture this week was meh, but so were most of them. And last weeks' rock climbing picture was awesome, I thought--reminded me of Twiggy, actually, with the big wide eyes!

I thought Bianca handled the head shaving really well, which I was not expecting

Yes--she cried, but she didn't bitch and moan, she didn't wail, and she didn't say "I hate it and I wish I'd never gone on this show", even in interviews...or at least, not that they showed us. I think they really WANTED her to be more drama, though. They like that. Miss Jay was practically taunting her.

I don't particularily like Ebony or Lisa--they just seem random to me. Jenah looks broke down, somehow--she might take good pictures, but the makeover didn't help the in person look. Chantal makes me want to smack her.

I like Ambreal, I think Saleisha might be saveable, I like Heather, I like Janet....and if there are other girls, I've forgotten them.
