KINJIRU

I didn't t hink you could reach a new low, but you have.

i wonder if you have any clue how many Iraquis have been killed in the Iraq occupaion??? Your lack of any human decency is heart-breaking.

I sense some background story here...?

Editing can make anything look other than what it is, including the horror going on in Iraq. Why do you think, from Day #1, that reporters' movements were highly restricted and often choreographed? With footage submitted for broadcast having to be approved in many cases?

Oh hell no. Im not ready this correctly, am I? Are we really going to start a discussion about this? I have a nephew who served bravely for 17 months and has another tour in a few months so idiots like us can [expletive deleted] about a war from the comfort of our own homes.

Can we please not have this discussion on the Top Chef boards, please?

Good point about Mr. Mohawk. I think that guy would say anything to trash someone.

I see your point but let me answer this as you might:

Was your head so far up your arse that you didn't see the rare chix and then send it back..Whadjya eat it for in the first place stoonad....lol

LOL good question. It was Chicken Lo Mein. Most of the chicken was bite sized and I never bothered to cut into it or check it till we looked at the left overs after we got back from El Hospital. And trust me if my head was up my ass at the time it was quickly and violently extracated by Uncle Sal.

Oh silly.....That wasn't raw chix..That was raw cat.
It'll do it evey time....lolololol

...He's not threatening in any way.....if he was rude and disrespectful...then tell him and ignore him....Cliff has apologized and he was drunk...Peeps can get very mean whenst drunk.We have to accept that at face value....If he means it or not.He did take it like a man.In Cliff's world as a rough and tumble guy ..this may be how they do play jokes on each other.....Cliff was not on the alliance. Not condoning just tryng to understand.

Alcohol doesn't turn someone into an *sshole. Alcohol doesn't make someone, who doesn't already have the moral character to do so, sneak up on a sleeping colleague and assault him. It's already there, simply masked by a facade.

The only "face value" we have to take it at is the apparent "face value"--here's a guy who is willing to assault someone much smaller than him, after attacking his victim when he was the most vulnerable...when sleeping.

Regarding on what kind of "world" Cliff lives in, if he is top chef material he damn well knows that you cannot assault a colleague. Even if he is so socipathic that he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it, he must know that if he does it he (and the restaurant for which he works) will be in a whole world of legal hurt.

I think Sam, Ilan and Elia played Cliff like a $2 banjo. I think they had all agreed to get Cliff sent home, and that is why, once Cliff got Marcel down on the ground, no one came in to do what they apparently had promised to do--their end of the assault, shaving Marcel.

By the way---where did they get the clippers used to shave their heads? Supposedly all they can bring in are personal grooming aids. Who uses professional-style hair-clippers, designed to take off a lot of hair at a time, in their personal grooming kit?

The clippers were likely Cliff's. It's how he maintained his bald head.

Really? I thought clippers were for longer hair. I've only known two men who chose bald, and both used razors.

YOU'RE RIGHT AMAZON

USUALLY THE BUZZ CUTTER ARE FOR PRELIMINARY

CUT

FOLLOWED BY A RAZOR IF ONE DESIRES

And again you misrepresent me. You like doing that, or is it an accident?
At this moment, I'm choosing to believe that Tom is Honest. Given that, I know if I was talked into changing my mind on a decision due to being "Misinformed", I would do everything in my power to fix it. Yes, even if it stripped one winner over another. His name and rep are attached to the show, I'm sure he doesn't want to be remembered as someone easily dupable, or a person afraid to correct a wrong once he knows of it.

I mean seriously, If Sam "WON", he'd only be stripped of the win if the true order of events showed he should have been dq'ed before the final. If he wasn't to be dq'ed, no change in his win. Same for any of the others.

Are the words too big for you to understand?

Simple.

Let's assume Tom is both truthful in what he's said so far in the matter AND a standup person. The fact that SOMEONE lied to him about the sequencing, and therefore the nature of what happened to Marcel, may well indeed make a standup honest person rethink a decision and act accordingly. Notice I did not say that action would be to give the win to Marcel.

If Tom knows the real deal and is playing along with production and the story to do...well something I guess, then nothing will change.

I've never been a Marcel Fan, but I'm not a hater either. I think he should have to compete against the last 3 standing chefs that were not breaking contest rules in a way to get them DQ'ed. That would be fair, both by my understanding of the rules they agree to and by (I hope) society values that ganging up on people does not earn you a reward. That behavior would get them dq'ed from any smart kitchen in the world.

OK Cassie, I'm going to back you on this for one reason. I do understand the point you are trying to make. Tom may HAVE told them that either Marcel wins or you can all kiss my rump roast good bye, IF he found out before the prize was awarded about being duped by the producers. It is his name on the show and his reputation somewhat at stake. However, that is something we will probably never know, because even if Marcel wins, whether it be for his cooking or for the verbal/physical abuse he took (that was NOT "brothers" wrestling around!) I am sure that even IF they agreed to make sure that Marcel won, there would be all kinds of contractual agreements that they would NEVER talk about it. However, if Tom does not find out until AFTER the Hawaii challenge, there is nothing he can do except refuse to be associated with the show again. Pretty sure he would have no grounds for taking the prize back. Any help?? (O:

WHEW SIZ

YOU SAID A MOUTHFUL

THE THING IS IF MARCEL WINS.........

Now , this I don't get. From Andy Cohen's most recent blog:

"During last night's "debacle" (as it was not really a decent show), you actually had an insipid contest for viewers to vote on "Who hates Marcel the Most?" with the inclusion of the choice D = "Me." That alone fuels the fire, you fool! I hope someday, somehow, this negative karma you have been pushing comes back to bite in you in the ass!

I completely agree with you, Lynda. When I saw that question onscreen my mouth dropped open. It was completely insensitive and stupid."

So, if Andy, a Bravo VP, isn't responsible, who is? The Executive Producer?

Can't wait till Wed too, but the outcry about the last show on all the blogs and internet sites is incredible. Waiting to see what Bravo/TomC will do, if anything.

Fascinating that the same thing is happening in UK right now...Big Brother where a pack of UK women went after an Indian-born woman and Bollywood Star. The instigator was booted last night. Audience votes. If we were voting in TC, I think Ilan would be out cold now. There are several polls on the TC contestants and Marcel holds a HUGE lead. Just amazing.

The Two Fat Ladies were these two middle aged fat ladies from England who smoke drank cussed and rode around in a motorcycle with one of those seat attachments to the side. Went from place to place in England and made fab food...lots of lard etc...years before Paula Dean and much much much funnier and talented. Their series not yet on DVD

Lesseee...not an orphan...had 6 (now 5) brothers and a sister....although I did accuse my parents of adopting me in a very loud voice when I was 10 or so.

Went to the monastery at age 23 after several attempts at university and a gig as go-go boy at a gay disco in Chicago. The monks said I winked too much, buit what is one to do in the silence???

Ended up going back to yet another Univ and wound up with a Master's in Latin, then joined the Jesuits for 5 years, then art school, then art, yadda, yadda....

too many stories to tell...

even on a quiet Sunday morning...have to head to Costco soon,before the snow....people in virginia FREAK when they see a snow flake...completely buy all the bread and milk ...and bundle up like it's the middle of the 12th century in the black forest...as a northern Yankee only 12 feet of snow and -52 would occasion such thoughts... if even then.

even on a quiet Sunday morning...have to head to Costco soon,before the snow....people in virginia FREAK when they see a snow flake...completely buy all the bread and milk ...and bundle up like it's the middle of the 12th century in the black forest...as a northern Yankee only 12 feet of snow and -52 would occasion such thoughts... if even then.

Want to hear more stories!!

I lost my one & only brother just last year.

You sound interesting, to say the least. I think we can all learn something or other from our collective experiences. Rock on dude & don't let that crazy lady bop you over the head to beat you to the bottled water.

LOL. It's the DietRite I want!

BUt I'm sorry about your brother. Esp as you had just the one. Mine was a year younger (i'm sorta in the middle) ...we were inseparable as boys, but we had a falling out aty age 12 and never spoke to each other after,. Weird, but itdoes happen. After he died, I spent three days straight putting together a video of a bunch of photos of him, his friends, the family, his wife, his kids etc etc and a bunch of music...and in the process it was as if I lived through his life and we forgave each other. Very healing. Massive tears. Life is so odd. So beautiful.

You just made me a bit misty. I have dreams about my brother all the time.. it's weird & beautiful all at the same time. And the funny thing is, is that I'm not the one who thinks it's weird that my brother comes to me in my dreams... of all people, it is my my mom who thinks it's really weird. I guess if you are not open to $hit, it will sadly never happen for you.

Good luck on getting that diet rite, I just saw on CNN that there are riots ensuing about this stuff as we speak.

Tell me a funny story about the monastery.

How funny that you call your bankie a bankie! I've called my bankie that ever since I could talk!

Oh, yes! When I was a wee one, my bankie went pretty much everywhere with me. My Aunt actually wore a permanent groove in her finger from worrying at hers so much when she was a kid.

Tell me a funny story about the monastery.

Well, the funniest was the winking. This was a big monastery...like 300 monks, attached to a university. I was 23. I had broken up with my boyfriend of three years only six months prior and had then spent 3 months in Paris studying at the Ecole de Louvre, where I nearly fell in love with and married my teacher, who was a year older than I. She remains one of the cherished people in my life. Anyway...when I returned to the USA, I went into a very deep depression, and picked up the only book in my parent's house that wasn't a Reader's Digest Condensed Book, Man Of All Seasons. IN the forward to that play, the editor spoke of Thomas More's early life and how he had wanted to be a monk. Suden;yt I knew what I had to do. I went to the liobrary and read everything I could about monasteries in France...not realizing there were actual modern monasteries in the USA....not that I cared because going away to an ancient monastery in France where I would discover in some dusty tome the secrets of life was SO much more dramatic!

ANYWAY, I ended talking to a Jesuit priest from my old high school and he gave me a reference to the monastery. These monasteries often have a 3 month trial period for those who think they hear the call. So I went and really wa kinda enjoying the silence, time to read, meeting very interesting scholars and artists and muscians etc...then one day, the elder monk in charge of my "formatio" called me into his office, sat me down, gave me a very dioleful look and said, "Mark, I have been getting complaints from some of the older brtothers." And me, all wide-eyed anmd innocent, said, "Oh,,,,ok, well like what?" And he said in a whisper, "You're winking at them."

Well, damn! I burst out laughing right then and there...."Wha?!??"

"Yes, they say you are winking at them."

Well it took me a while to stop laughing and puzzle this out and it came to me in a flash: one of my father's endearing traits is his winking...being the Irish leprachun he is..and I think because of the silence, it was my way, being the ADD person I was not yet aware I was, of saying "Hello," "How's it goin?," "Wassup?"

I tried to explain this to him (I didn't think I should say, "Um...not really into 65-year old monks, however well-preserved, if you know what I mean, dude") but in the end, they told me I was not quite ready for monastic life. And they were absolutely right. But I did need that period of reflection, pråyer and silence to put me back on track....

no more stories...there are folks on this board who consider me another Marcel...I've already said too much...

LOL...

Off to Costco....

The Ballad Of The "Bully-Gang"

Yesterday in old Las Vegas
Mr. Vigneron was 'bused.
Now they got the "gang" that did it
On a charge Marcel was used.
Some folks say they just was playin',
Others say they made him pay,
'Cause they all agreed the guy just wasn't all that damn soignee.

(chorus)
Oh, you can't clip your castmate down in old Las Vegas
Not even if it's meant to be in fun.
No, you can't chop your top chef down in old Las Vegas
You know someone'll pack their knives 'n run.

Well, they got him on the sofa
Where he'd gone to take a nap.
They'd been drinkin'; wasn't thinkin
When they thought to shear his cap.
Now, Cliff, he played the muscle man,
And Sam was set to shear.
Ilan was there to film it all,
With Elia there to cheer.

(chorus)
Oh, you can't shear your bunkmate down in old Las Vegas
Not even if you're tired of his cuisine.
No, you can't buzz old 'Foamy down in old Las Vegas
You know it's almost sure to cause a scene.

Well, Cliff, he tried to hold him down,
Ilan was camera-ready.
Sam was laughin' up a storm.
Their nerves were moonshine-steady.
But in the end, the little guy, he up and ran away,
Surely pissed, but "shorn-ly" missed--guess "Foam" don't play 'dat way!

(chorus)
Oh, you can't clip your castmate down in old Las Vegas
And then blame all the damage on moonshine.
No, you can't call him "Chop Chef" down in old Las Vegas
You know the judges won't approve the whine.

Well, they didn't get to shave Marcel.
They kinda chickened out.
But never one to be outdone,
Ilan just had to shout,
"Let's shave our own, since Foamy, he's done run away and hid!"
He said "Elia, cut it out!" and that's exactly what she did.

(chorus)
Oh, you can't shave your a$$es down in old Las Vegas
And then expect to not hear "Let's evict 'em!"
No, you can't save your a$$es down in old Las Vegas
You know the boards'll scream "don't blame the victim!"

So, now they want the "Bully-Gang."
Well, them that's left, they say.
Since Cliff was axed, and asked to pack his bags that fateful day.
The others roam, without their foam, a "pack" that some comdemn.
Like musketeers, they've heard the jeers of "Foul Ad Hominem!"

"Hang 'em high!" the boards'll say.
"They can't treat poor Marcel that way!"
But he'll be back, and we'll all watch
him say "I'm not your b!tch, beeyotch!"

Yes, we can moan, and we'll still fight, but we'll be back next
Wednesday night.
Just lock your doors, 'cause threats don't faze 'er. Here comes Elia with a brand new razor!!!

Aww, Mizzy, say it aint so! It's great to see you back here on the boards, but I'm so sorry you're under the weather big time. If I could speed you some chicken soup, I'd do it in a heartbeat--maybe try a hot, buttery TC Toddy with an extra ounce of hooch, and that stomach bug'll be too buzzed to bite you!
