As if there was any doubt who thinks Ashton is H-O-T-T-T, click on the IMDB messages about Ashton: http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0005110/board/nest/495498

Let us please not conflate good looking with sex symbol.

I thought you were a pre-op transvestite, with hormone-swollen breasts and a shrunken (but only from its normal humonguousness, so still quite large) penis.

And big floppy ears. And cute melty brown eyes.

A friend of mine is running some sort of leaders in schools program and he asked a bunch of his friends if we'd go in and talk about what we do and how we got there. He's a licensed massage therapist, and he bribed us with free massages if we'd do it.

Anyhow, my sister and I and four other people met at the high-school, and we sat on a panel for an hour explaining what we do for a living to a bunch of sophmores and juniors in highschool. Damn, those kids are a lot younger than I remembered. At the question answer period, we got some funny questions. One kid wanted to know how hard the bar exam was. Another wanted to know how to pay for med school, and could you work part-time while you went to med school. The best one, though, was the kid who said "I'm going to be a CEO when I grow up," and he pointed to my sister since she was the only one with the word "executive" in her title, and started quizzing her. I don't think he realized that, of the people sitting at the table, the non-profit executive director probably made the least amount of money.

TM, you really think Justin's had a nose job? Interesting. Looking at his parents (aging-well blond and good-looking, if older, black guy), I thought it was probably his own. His too-small nose is the one flaw in his looks. FWIW, I never thought he was white. As for her repertoire, one of his best songs last year was the Al Green classic "Let's Stay Together." What is that if not R&B?

This year's finalists sound miles and miles better than last year's on their group numbers--I guess because this year there are more actual singers. The funny thing is that some of this year's finalists sound way better on the group numbers than in their solos, namely Josh and Trenyce.

I was shocked, I tell you, just shocked that Ruben was in the bottom two last night. My take on the whole thing is basically the same as that article that was linked--Trenyce went one week too early, and it should have been Josh.

I'll have Ruben and Kim on redial next week. Clay doesn't need my help. This week I tried to give him one vote (and 6-8 each for Ruben and Kim) and had the hardest time getting through on his line.

Thurgreed, yesterday you said that asshole was a gender specific insult, so I can assume that you would never call a woman an asshole. But when you're playing cranky Thurgreed you will insult a woman by saying that her asshole is tight or has a stick up it or some such thing. I haven't noticed whether you say the same to men on the Board. Do you make a gender distinction there?
He's not bright enough to take a consistent position (hence, his need for help through recentering and grade inflation).

I take a consistent position across the board. I can't remember the last time I called a woman an ass or asshole, or said one had a stick up her ass, and the rest. And I thought saying a woman had a tight ass was a compliment anyway, but that's neither here nor there.

My favorite use of the phrase stick up your ass was when one of my 70-something grandpa yelled it at a guy in the crosswalk, got out of the passenger seat and had words with the guy, and held his own fighting the guy.

Use "camp" instead of "team" - the former sounds political, the latter makes you sound racist.

Unless you meant American Airlines, then I agree since I always tell TM to fly Delta.

I wan't paying full attention last night, but I was surprised that Christy got the axe. I didn't see that one coming at all. When Jenna gave up immunity, I was hoping she would get voted off. I figured Christy was going to vote with the girls against Matt, who they knew would have a lot of votes against him and would lose a 3-3 tiebreaker, letting them pick off the rest of the guys. Perhaps no one wanted to risk ending up in the final 2 with a deaf girl. Rob cracks me up. He is the first evil/manipulative Survivor contestant I actually really liked (kind of like BB Will, but not as suave or with as good strategery). Jenna's "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful" and "Because I am so pretty I have to work sooooo much harder" made me want to puke. I haven't looked but does anyone have links to any of her "modeling" shoots? I suspect it is largely hand modeling or shoes or something.

Seeing a photo of him that is so disturbingly large makes me hate his hair even more. Yuck. I hated Corey for the same reason. Dude. Get a haircut.

However, I think that if his hair were shorter, and as a result his head looked smaller, his nose would then look disproportionately large.

But here's a question: Do you really rush home every day to read all the messages on the boards so you can serial post about all the topics on which you think we want to hear from you? I can just see you at work, nervous and fidgeting like a 4th grader at 2:59, waiting for that bell to ring, hoping you get on the first bus home to catch all of Tom & Jerry.
