Beautiful
Clem Snide did a lovely job covering "Beautiful." The Lemonheads are copycats who are very late to the party.

As soon as the challenge was street food I figured Bayless would win for sure, and I kinda sorta think that's what the producers had in mind, too. They aren't looking for a final 6 of chefs we haven't heard of, after all.

What's a Duggar? Did I somehow miss out on a pop culture phenomenon?

For the guys (do other men watch this show?)

Get yourself a DVR. Mine gave me the wonderful surprise when I checked my recorded shows on Sunday and there was Pushing Daisies! AT&T Uverse is a many-splendored thing. It wasn't phased that the episode was on a different day and time.

Forget dancing - did you see Treeman?!
Holy cow - last night on TLC Amazing Stories or whatever it's called they had the story of a man from Indonesia with a very unfortunate condition that made his arms and other parts of his body look like they were tree trunks covered with thick bark. It was insane. Search for…

Reminds me of Ferry Halim games
Anybody ever play the Orisinal games at ferryhalim.com? They are simple, and beautiful. My favorite is Pocketful of Stars.

Starcade still exists at Disneyland. I'll check to see if Biplane is still there. I hope it is because I hope the entire arcade is full of old games like that. If so the thought of kids' parents paying $69 to get into a park for them to play videogames won't be so depressing.

If you still have this episode recorded…
please go back and rewatch the waffle breakfast scene. I could swear that Tami said Tyra's last name was Palicki instead of Colette.

I second that emotion.

Emily Withrow' memory
Re "(I believe this episode also included someone stuffing her bra and accidentally dipping her fake boobs into her soup, and that the menu item in question was lobster, but I haven't looked it up.)"

Too bad Sophie was cured
She was the best patient.

Fly Away Home is a lovely movie. People should have kids just so they could make them watch it.

Brian Austin Green didn't die it was his friend Scott. Remember, he came back from summer vacation in Texas or somewhere? He started wearing a cowboy hat? Then he played with his gun at his birthday party? And he shot himself accidentally?

The word nauseous is supposed to reflect something that induces nausea. After coming in contact with something nauseous, one is nauseated. It works the same as poisonous/poisoned. This, the technically correct stance, has of course been replaced by the now accepted misuse of the word. The following from www.worldwidewo…

"…more than once the show literally made me nauseous."

Please explain why it matters if movie awards are arbitrary. What difference does it make to a moviegoer to whom the movie industry decides to give a statue?

That's very sweet.

House's blur = foreshadowing for next week. Something is VERY WRONG THIS TIME. Again.

Helping Neighbors
This episode gave me a great idea - always help new neighbors set up their stereos! That way you can make sure to accidentally not connect their subwoofers.
