Ghost Hunters did The Queen Mary. I'm sure other groups probably have as well, it's purportedly a very haunted place.

Yeah, the QM is practically a manditory stop for ghost hunting teams.

Most Haunted, that's the show. I adore the way they're alternately bored/terrified out of their minds/trying desperately to find *anything*. I think most of the time they mostly only terrify themselves, but there have been some weird things on that show.

a friend of mine stayed there one year when we went to LA for the PBPs. she and the girl she went with were terrified in certain parts of it.
I visited it during the daylight in 2005. that one hallway is creeptastic and seems to go on forever.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I stayed over night on the Queen Mary this Spring. Nothing scared the heck out of me but I intentionally avoided all the ghostie stuff. There were some very odd clanking noises in the middle of the night though.

Kristin and I have stayed on the Queen Mary. We took one of their Ghost Tours. K felt some very creepy vibes, but we didn't see any direct evidence of ghosts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Just watched Top Chef, and here's my proposition: add Bourdain to the regular roster of judges, and give us two out of three: Tony, Gail, Ted. Right?!?!?

Thrive to spite them
I was reading the comments in the blog linked to (with Bourdian's comments about Next Food Star) and someone mentioned that Sandra Lee is going to take recipes from the restraunts of Mario Batali and Bobby Flay and make them "semi homemade". While I can imagine the horrors that Sandra Lee will do to those recipes I can't imagine why they would agree to it, what kind of contracts they had to sign.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Yeah, I'm really not sure why Padma gets to be a judge. I can see why they need a pretty girl to be the host, but seriously, she's a model with her name on a few diet cookbooks written by other people. This makes her a qualified judge of restaurant chefs?
My Tivo didn't get the second NFNS ep and since I was in the hospital (with no FN on the in-room TV) I didn't realize it until they'd stopped running repeats. AND I can't ahem it because I got a very polite note from my cable company letting me know about a letter they recieved about my account from NBC...oh well.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
But doesn't putting out a cookbook make you a top chef of your very own?
I don't know, I like Padma. She's pretty cool, and a huge improvement over first season hostwoman. But excepting the occasions when she gets a little feisty, she's kind of useless as a judge.
