Become a Beauty and The Geek Contestant!
Look, folks – I’m enjoying Beauty and the Geek (just like the rest of you), but I am not like Richard in any way. Two people have made this innocent juxtaposition, but it’s just flat-out wrong. He’s the lanky guy who has no social skills. First, I’m not lanky – I was husky in junior high. And while I enjoy Richard’s over-the-top mannerisms, I have a completely different style. Richard has never kissed a girl, and I nailed my first smooch in the second grade. My ears also don’t stick out half as far. I may be a geek, but I guess I’m not a total geek. The guys on this show are closer to nerds, IMHO. And these beauties are truly beauties, but I’ve known much better beauties who also happen to have brains (present company included). Beauty and the Geek hits too close to home.

Nothing zaps afternoon productivity quicker than a power outage. Not just a power surge, mind you – but an all-out power outage. Wattage droppage. At first, I thought it was because I was running too many things at once – the blender, the microwave, my teleporter, etc. Suckin' up da juice, yo! I ran downstairs through the spider-infested garage and flipped every breaker in the fuse box. Nothing happened; our UPSs kept beeping, and the ROUSSes were inching closer. I figured it was a neighborhood thing when I called the power company. Bah! Our entire block was out of juice (though we were the first to report it), and the lines wouldn't be fixed until 6AM the next morning. No power all night long makes for… a metric ton of wasted refrigerated items.
