Although I am enjoying the fallout, I think the concept of this show is evil. It's like having The Bachelor and have him get to the final three and then telling him "only two of the remaining women were born women" or "one of the remaining 'women' is really a drag queen." Not fair.

Agree. And especially so becuase the bachelor guy is sorta sensitive and from all the press was genuinely mad about it. However Andra has successfully grated my last nerve. When she was freaking out about how this was making HER look like a fool and how unfair this was to HER, I would have flat out smacked her if I was James. All in all he handled it pretty well on the show even though he was seething.

My gay friend who I watched with last night is all about James. Also when I said Brian seemed sweet, said gay friend said "wolf in sheep's clothing!" fwiw.

I have to say, when you all put "FLo$" in the subject line it makes me think of dental floss. Expensive dental floss. Maybe from Neimans?

You are so misinformed, but that's not surprising considering your milieu. The tacky Island chicks to whom you refer are from Staten Island. Get a map and a clue. Girls from Long Island (at least, those from the North Shore) snag their rich bangable guys by going to college in New England and losing the accent. So you didn't hit home on this one. But you did really get me with the "soooo insecure" comment -- that was very trenchant.

Two words. Warren Towers. Or George WAshington Unversity. The only thing separating the chick's from Staten Island (where I am thinking of buying property incidentally bc I think it might become a charming refuge in a retro kind of way someday) and Long Guyland (where the paigow was born fwiw- and where the paigow grandma is buried off some endless stripmall three lane highway I never want to see for the rest of my life) is a bottle of bleach, an eighties curling iron, and a degree from Penn, BU, GW, or American, depending upon intelligence or motivation levels. Otherwise it is all black eyeliner, frosty lipstick, nails beyond the finger horizon and hairspray.

I'll comment anyway.

You are totally insane. Seriously. You scare me about 10 times more than paigow does, and she scares the shit out of me.

Sounds like the British version of AI. Here's the latest scoop --

A 26-year-old Pop Idol 2 contestant who was rejected during last weekend's episode is actually a 42-year-old Irish man who works as an escort. He says he "charge[s] £100 but I never spend the night and I've never been tempted. I want to provide my services in England." He plans to continue his singing career.


So do producers do no background check at all? Must be well preserved to be able to pass off 26.

This line, for some reason, seems to be representative of my recent conversations with my new-teen child.

Okay, everyone who freaked when I said Ms. Cruz has facial angle issues (looks good from some, but not from others), take a look at the pic of her in the orange dress and tell me I'm wrong --

You're wrong.

The angle of her face in that picture is the same as the one in the picture on the left. Are you suggesting that every photo of her be a good one, because that's just silly. Sometimes a bad picture is taken. Her expression is what is fucking that picture up. It's like she's imbetween a smile and a serious face and it was snapped at the wrong time. Just let the facial angle theory go already. She is beautiful.

Here she is in Woman on Top from essentially the same angle:

Really I just wanted to quote all of that, partly to bug E/O.

Next time, could you just PM her?

It looks like they are hoping to score a few lawyers for the show. I will be curious to see if any lawyers from Houston make it, and if so, whether they are losers like Rob. If any of you guys want 25 hotties fawning over you, here's your chance.

CASTING CALL FOR "THE BACHELOR" & "THE BACHELORETTE"

ABC's goal is to find their perfect companion. So, if you are 23 to 35 years old, no children and ready to meet the person of your dreams PLEASE APPLY. Or, if you know of someone who should be the next Bachelor or Bachelorette nominate them today. The casting crew is only in town this week (they are interviewing Wednesday through Saturday). To apply or nominate someone, please e-mail Amy Raymond by 10 a.m. on Wednesday (8/27) at amy.raymond@warnerbros.com.

I do not. I need them to arrest the riff raff and fight fires. I hate people who are so misguided that they assume that my referring to someone's utilitarian place on the societal pole is a form of hate when it is neutral.

Well I certainly hope that my teen lingo lexicon post helped you out.

(I am so sure that "bling bling" is just what every new-teen child wants to hear his or her daddy say)

What am I to do? Is this new release actually worthy of indy-pop recognition, or should I wait a few weeks for it to reveal itself as the acousticaly empty offal that I am sure it is?

Always lookin to start a music discussion. Sometimes lookin to start a fight. Rarely does either occur. I generally concur with your perceptions of earlier DWs music. I don't know the new stuff - who knows, maybe it is better. But what harm is there in waiting? We all have enough CDs that we will never listen to again.

Welcome back. Glad to see you beat the ethics charges.

"David Rimmer, a prosecutor who presented very different accounts of the same murder in two trials here last summer, was formally cleared today in an ethics inquiry.

In an interview here today, Mr. Rimmer, 56, said he had been too busy to give much thought to the ethics charges, which stemmed from a case in which two boys pleaded guilty to killing their father."

You know, this really, really reads as "No, dahling, I LOVE the little people, scruffy as they are. SOMEONE has to clean the pool, you know."
