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.

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

Do you like Shinsei?

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.

I loved Dale's montage remark too!

I'm watching Next Iron Chef and you know - it brings in more of the wackiness of the original Japanese Iron Chef.

I finally saw this and I agree. It's exactly what I thought when they announced the dessert challenge. My only problem is that none of the contestents really strike me as someone I'd want to see on Iron Chef; I'm not sure why.

TC: Chow.com's roundtable discussion of season 3.

I think Saleisha might be saveable

Not with that weave! Really, what was Tyra thinking? A straight up bowl cut? She looks like Diana Ross from the last scene in Mahogony where she's finally debuting her crazy Japanese Kabuki dress and she's walking down the runway and all the people are clapping and then she realizes that Billy Dee was right and success IS nothing without someone you love to share it with. And yes, I may have seen that movie a million too many times, but Saliesha's hair looks like that crazy wig Diana was rocking in that scene.

Survivor: I actively hated a lot fewer people last night, so that's good. Denise speaks (and she was pretty darn adorable). Still liking Frosti and Todd was better. Thought James telling Dave not to hug him was hi-larious. Also, noticed that Erik is very pretty, which made the night much better. Still not the best season for me.
