And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hey, have people been aware that it looks like the new season of GOOD EATS has started?

My Tivo told me! That means Feasting on Asphalt should be airing soon too, if AB's back and beardless.

The hottie substitute nutritional anthropologist was Deb's daughter, btw.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

After gathering some actual data, "guy whose name I still don't know" in my earlier post turns out to be Zach, "America's Player" is Eric, and "annoying what's her name" is Jessica. FYI.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Kathy, you realize that there are any number of Buffistas in DC. And most of the museums are free. Plus pretty good public transit.

I'd just advise not coming during the summer. Or spring break/Cherry Blossom Festival. Or any long school holiday. Sometimes you can't get near the exhibits.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

That means Feasting on Asphalt should be airing soon too, if AB's back and beardless.

It starts August 4 or 5, I think. (I miss the beard!)

"See, this substitute thing can work out just fine!"

The whole show is adorable.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What the hell is wrong with her?

Seriously. I had to skip back because I thought I missed something that was worth crying about, but no.

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

Jen was straight-out threatening her, but the crying started well before that.

brillig

I just had a passing thought that Bourdain needs to guest on Iron Chef America, preferably against Flay. That would be fun, especially because Flay loses frequently.

Art Crawl!!!

Ooh, that would be fun.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Bourdain is a great writer, but ... he's not at the level of chefs they have on the show. Les Halles (where he no longer works) is largely identical to about two dozen other brasseries in town.
