On the Biggest Loser, have they met with a doctor at least once in every season?

I didn't start watching until like the 3rd season but I think they meet with the doctor a number of times.

Clarification: I need to let a colleague in our health division know if she can say they meet with a doctor at least once every season, or whether she needs to qualify it (most seasons or something similar).

I really don't think that "collective guilt" means what that priest thinks it means. When talking about antisemitism, it can mean either that all Jews are responsible for the crimes of any Jew, or (appropriately for Good Friday) that all Jews are responsible for killing Christ. I don't think anybody is blaming all Catholics for sexual abuse.

I can't imagine they wouldn't, simply for liability reasons. I know they've had to hospitalize contestants. (Show makes me roll my eyes a lot, but I've ended up seeing a whole lot of eps for reasons that don't exist.)

Okay, someone explain this drink to me. It sounds great, right up until the inclusion of the black olive. Smirnoff vampire gimlet

(Hec, I'm especially looking at you on this one.)

Not Hec, and super-late, but I add green olives to Perfect Manhattans and the salt nicely offsets the sweetness of the whiskey and the sweet vermouth. I'm thinking that's the same idea here, especially since Rose's still had sugar instead of HFCS in it at that point. It'd be worth trying with real lime juice, vodka, sugar, and an olive.

Yeah I couldn't say for sure.

ha, yeah. I love a transformation, though. And I only ever watch it recorded so I can ff through most of it.

OMG SO BORED. Friday afternoon. No signs of life in the office.

Father Cantelamessa is an idiot. Or a liar, or a lying idiot.

I just got back from Good Friday service (had to leave in the middle; I think there's at least an hour to go. At the beginning of the universal petitions, the priest who asked us all to pray for Benedict our Pope actually did an eyeroll as he said the words. He kind of ducked his head so that not everybody could see him do it, but I totally saw. The look on his face was halfway between, "Not enough prayer in the world to help you, dude" and, "It causes me physical pain to say his name out loud."

When your (several times removed) underlings are rolling their eyes at your name in public, that can't be good.

My train is one of those double-decker dealios! I'm sitting all high and shit. In the dark.

I'm caramelizing some onions. My apartment smells good.
