I read that about Robert Irvine too. Why do people do that? Wasn't his resume impressive enough as it was?
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

I had wondered why TWOP's Dinner Impossible thread was so active. Somebody linked to this article back on the 18th of February. And they also put up the resume in question.
And Michael Ruhlman and Tony Bourdain nominated him for a "Golden Clog" award:
THE CAT CORA AWARD
For most fame based on least actual culinary achievement
Nominees: Guy Fieri for..."Tex Wasabi?"; Tony Bourdain--"One fucking book. Did this asshole ever work anyplace GOOD?"; Robert Irvine--"Sir Robert? Uh....Maybe not. Prince Charles' wedding cake?...uh...no. White House? Hmmm..not according to Walter Scheib....Five Stars? Who IS this guy? Really?"

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
The fact that Bourdain is nominated for a chump award on his own made-up award list is a nice illustration of why he is AWESOME.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm watching whatever cycle of ANTM is running on MTV right now, and OH MY GOD, why is Jade so insane? I've seen the ending bits of this cycle more often, so I remember her exit, as she spouted poetry. But she was just insane from the beginning.

Also, judging from the commercials, Janet Jackson is involved in another round of Making the Band? Why?

Sneak peak of the first quickfire - 9 more days 'til TC4!
(And the sneak doesn't really tell you anything about the QF but I'm guessing pizza! What do you guys think?)

I had no idea that TC was coming back so soon, but was looking at the TiVo programming for the upcoming weeks this morning and was super excited to see it listed there.
I wonder if it's a Bertolli-type thing since there was a sign for frozen pizza in the background. Or, is the Top Chef kitchen in an Uno's this season? It seemed that way when they showed the lockers and the "pantry".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was just reminded that I'm going to see Wicked on Wednesday night. Which, awesome, except for the Project Runway finale!! Clearly, my diamond shoes are too tight.
