brian, my BIL, who manages a movie theater, has been known to set up after-hours xbox on the big screen. if i tivo this, there must be a way to hook it up…

so who lives within a reasonable distance of central NJ, where the theater is?

of course, i should probably, y’know, ask him.

Gail: I wish there were more of that herb
Other judge: yeah, it’s bland

Peel : Oh, I forgot Olive oil..

hum, dude, olive oil might be capital to many dishes, but it’s not the kinda thing you go like : Hum, this sauce/vinaigrette could use more kick and flavor, let’s add oil. She did say MORE OF THAT HERB!

Kelly Choi: Is she a real human or is she an Animatronic Bobblehead? Did she eat anything on camera this week?

John Besh: All kinds of awesome. Can I legally adopt him as a brother? Is that possible? Even my husband loves Besh. We were totally pulling for him. Bummer.

No tortillas: Jerk. Who hates tortillas?

Anita Lo: Scares me in an I-Love-Her kind of way. She’s stealthy. That withering glance saved her from flat-liner territory, though. Lo’s not so big on the emoting.

Peel: I don’t know what to think about him. I’m conflicted.

I finally realized that the reason Gail bugs me. She reminds me of girls in high school who really were idiots but were cute and popular and pulled good grades because they learned a couple important key words and flattered the right people. “Bellini”? Crying over eggs? Gruesome in a good way? Puh-leeze.

The creepiest moment of the night was that guy pulling a poor, drugged up rabbit out of his rats’ nest hair. And I didn’t get his schtick. What in heaven’s name does pulling a rabbit out of your crazy hair have to do with Japan and Samurais? Is that a lesser known Samurai skill set? This reinforces my disdain for magicians.

Did anyone else catch NPH telling Kelly “Bobblehead” Choi that the rabbit was peeing on her? THAT was a moment to remember.

I’m all for the MST3K idea. I’ll bring booze.

sarah and emily, when i said “rent a theater” i was thinking more like “take over the home of a friend with a television larger than 22 inches.” but i will provide snacks.

and emily, thanks. i try very hard to hew to the blog’s original motto: “fuck it.”

all y’all are awesome and hilarious – i wish i had time to be talking with you while the show was on. come back next week, because you totally do a better job than me.
