Is this the one where you have to know the lyrics?
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

I don't know -- but that sounds like what it should be. Like you get up to the podium, they give you a song and you have to sing it.
I wonder if they can ask for a certain number of bars or something.

Our wings are not tired
On my flight out to Orlando I watched Dirty Jobs and Ice Road Truckers on my video iPod. It was the one good part of the trip.

Hell's Kitchen - I'm glad I'm not the guys. Although, I see trotters at lunch fairly regularly a couple people at work like them.

Hell's Kitchen. Oy, what a bunch of nasty folk. The only one I'm rooting for at all now is Julia, and while I think she could turn into a dynamite high-end line cook (or even a sous-chef) I don't see her having the palate or vision, at least not currently, for running a place in Vegas. I guess Jen got the decision nod for the women because she (a) didn't burn scallops and (b) avoided the trash bin for a night.
I think Rock may have the largest talent/skill/timing ratio, but his talking about himself in the third person is wicked annoying. Also, while I don't think Jen had enough awareness to realize, Rock should have known that Ramsay was making a MONSTER leading statement about getting rid of the worst. I'd like Josh gone as much as Rock, but, dude, you were practically told who to nominate and you went personal instead.

Well, I figured that Ramsey was getting sick of the gamesmanship at the eliminations. Rock and Jen just made themselves look stupid.
I also dislike Rock talking about himself in the 3rd person.

Is anyone else watching Simon Schama's The Power of Art on PBS? Is anyone else thinking that Simon Schama desperately needs to get laid?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Someone should set him up with Sister Wendy.

I'm with you on this. I want Julia to win but I wonder if she's up for the task. I was surprised last week by the creme brulee incident because, while I don't fault her for her time at the Waffle House, I would expect that someone who wants to be a chef would educate herself outside of work. And, frankly, it's not like creme brulee is that hoity toity.
I didn't watch S1 of HK but I remember people at TWOP talking (last season) about how the S1 winner was given a choice. He could take the prize or work under Gordon for a year in London. I could see this happening again if Julia came out as the winner.
