Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Hell's Kitchen - hmmm, Ramsey given the opportunity Ramsey did NOT eliminate Jen. Of course, I don't think that Bobby is very good but Jen is just irritating.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jen has gone from eh to really bad in like 2 episodes.

Any contestant who displays such levels of self-deception will go down in flames.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sorry to spoil the Lady Rapper Show, le nubian!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I don't mind spoilers - especially in this case since I can't remember which rapper you are referring to. :-)

Interesting info about Top Chef:

including the fact that Padma gains 12-15 in 20 days judging for the show and she agreed to host to promote her own cookbook and wants to have her own show in the future...

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I watched HK ... at this point, I think they're keeping Jen around to have someone everyone (on the show and in the audience) hates. Adds to the drama, interpersonal conflict, etc. I'm wondering if Petrozza might turn out to be the winner by simply flying under the radar - no one hates him, he's pretty consistent, and Ramsey's main problem with him is that he's messy.

Always Anti-fascist!

Sail, babe, I know. At the risk of getting hassled like Michelle Obama, that was one of the few times I enjoyed the SSB. On an unrelated note, 30 Days repeats, right?
