Top Chef - Season 7 (DC)

Who's watching?! Last season was a GREAT season and so far recent history would argue that Top Chef seems to follow up a great season with a ho-hum season (I’m looking at YOU season 5!). But so far, I’m digging it more for the drama elements that are building. Angelo vs. Kenny (I’m on Team Kenny), t...

Re: Hells Kitchen

I liked Ben before, but that totally flipped once his ego got out of control when he went to the red team. I think I'm rooting for the blue-haired guy now. I will also accept Ben getting punched by one of his teammates.

Super excited. Being in the summer, I feel like I always forget about it, but great show regardless.

Irredeemable (Boom!)

Anyone else reading this? Man, I loved the first trade and picked up 2 more issues on Graphic.ly. Then I ended up buying up through Issue #13 because it was so good and I couldn't stop reading. This book is awesomely messed up.

Re: Top Chef - Season 7 (DC)

Episode 3: Capitol Grill -How random was Amanda’s drug habit admission? Totally just brought up that she was hopped up on drugs in her 20’s and then never elaborated on or brought back up again. (On some website’s recap, I read a hilarious comment about how she’s the one that’s been using alcohol in...

Just FYI, Groupon has a deal today where you can get MLB.TV for your mobile device for $5 (normally $25).

Re: Coffee

I've seen a couple of folks at work with a coffee press at their desk . . . what's the attraction? Sell one to me. :) The main attraction is that coffee is supposed to taste more richer brewed this way. With drip coffee, you have water dripping through the grounds and just passing through, but with...

Re: Coffee

This year I finally picked up a coffee press, which has been super awesome. Lately, I’ve been trying different blends between Kaldi’s (local STL) and Intelligensia (Chicago). No cream. Just a bit of stevia or agave nectar sweetener.

SYTYCD - Season 7

Ha. I bet you all are wishing you hadn’t invited me onto these forums now. But is anyone else watching So You Think You Can Dance? I never would have thought I’d watch this show, but seriously it’s become one of my favorite summertime shows. What do you all think about the all-star format this year?

Re: Your personal Summer 2010 Soundtrack

I just saw The New Pornographers and The Dodos, so I’ve been listening to their albums lately. Other than that, I’ve been listening a lot to the new Sleigh Bells and National albums. Both are really good. Can’t wait to listen to the new Roots album

Re: Breaking Bad

BB is all about charachter development. Even the fly, which was slower action wise, built a ton of tension. It shows walt starting to lose control and I thought he was going to spill the beans about Jane there for a second. I totally get the reason for it. (Also as a “bottle” episode to save money ...

Re: Finally, a Verizon iPhone...maybe?

I finally had the chance to see the new iPhone over lunch. Definitely felt nice, but wasn't that overwhelmingly awesome that I would want to upgrade from my 3GS at the moment.

Re: Breaking Bad

I can respect people saying BB is the best show on TV, but I don’t think that always translates every episode being enjoyable. I thought there were a handful of boring episodes (I’m looking at you FLY episode), but the season really ramped it up beginning with the Cousins’ assassination attempt on H...

I totally hope so. AT&T needs some competition to help lower the prices for the iPhone plans.

Re: Wonder Woman's New Outfit

For the most part, I’m fine with the redesign. The update to pants definitely makes her look more modern. It did immediately remind me of Animal Man and Donna Troy though. I’m not a JMS-hater (loved his Thor stuff), so if I hear good things about the reboot, I might check it out in trade.
