I think you're right, Jesse.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Add me in to those who think there was more to Jessi's elimination than we know. She'd been a Nigel favorite ever since the baby oil audition and on elimination night, he kinda treated her like something he scraped off of his shoe. I know that was her second case of "dehydration" and I do think the liability issue played into tossing her
After reading that interview, I'd say liability was a big issue -- if she's telling the truth about checking herself out of the hospital (rather than being discharged) AMA, then insurance usually won't cover you. Which leads me to believe Nigel's problem with her may have been something to do with how uncooperative she was being.
Take my bad read with this grain of salt: Never liked her, think I never will.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
But they give them the advice, and they totally ignore it.
I think they need more practice. Not that Adrian was any good, and he's apparently on (local) tv all the time! But I feel like the ones last year did get better and better at dealing with the cameras, the time constraints, the swap-outs, whatever, so they could actually work on their "point of view" and all that crap.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Whoops. Mrs. Top Chef and Salman Rushdie are getting divorced.
Edit: Yahoo's gossip site is actually called "OMG"? OMG.

Bwah!
(Over at TWOP people - basing this on something in a NYC gossip column, think that Padma and Tom Colicchio have been having an affair. But some other newspaper had a picture of Salman Rushdie out and about with a dark-haired woman who was actually NOT a foot taller than he is.)

Hell's Kitchen: That was interesting. And weird observation from tonight: does Melissa have a scar or tattoo on her chin? Or is she actually the bearded lady?

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
I thought maybe a zit since I hadn't noticed it before.
Maybe it was a goatee and she was her own evil twin? Damn, that was a sorry performance.
Loved Bonnie and Julia tonight.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I tried to watch HK, but Melissa was driving me nuts and I had to stop. Please tell me she got kicked off.
