On the FYI channel tonight at 7p.m. CDT is "Man v. Child: Chef Showdown,"
which will feature decadent desserts, if anyone is interested. There are
the Prodigies vs. a Chef. The kids (5, I think..two girls and 3 boys) are
very talented and the oldest I think is 15, while tiny Etsie Kung is the youngest at
8, but she looks like she is about 5. It's kinda fun to watch.

The prodigies are often the winners. Only one prodigy competes at a time; there are three
rounds. When the designated dish is announced, then the prodigies choose
which of them will compete against the professional chef.

John, you are such a purist snob...that program isn't on my watch list, but the subject came up
and I have watched it a couple times by accident, you might say.

However, since you insist on bragging about the lack of "TV tripe" in your life, you should refrain from
commenting. You obviously have no basis for a critique of anything on TV.

Do you watch Murdoch Mysteries and/or Elementary? Love those shows.

I've been near operating TVs recently and it's never been very pretty! I don't think I am missing that much, certainly avoiding a lot of acculturation crapola!

Yes, there are loads of crap on TV, but there are great shows on Nat
Geo, Smithsonian, Science channels. You have to be very selective.

Apparently JohnTheRN doesn't have a television so he's not in a position
to discuss it. He does, however, have a bunch of roommates and I'm
guessing one of them has a TV.

There is good television to be found, you just have to be selective.
And make sure you don't buy CHEAP STUFF FROM CHINA! (laughing)

Yes, but on the Internet it's ON DEMAND, and no commercials, and I AM very selective too. I''ve watched almost all Frontline programs, Nature and Nova, American Experience and a few others on PBS.org !! All on demand, free and NO commercials!!

You watch all those programs and yet brag you don't miss TV. Those programs were
created for TV, so your statements come across as disingenuous at the least. Ah, well,
there are none so blind as those who will not see.

It's the best of the best of TV, the TV everyone says they have a TV to be able to see! And I get it ON DEMAND and FOR FREE!! :-)

You criminally STALK and ABUSE women, you sick little dwarfy man!

Here's what you did when you went all over the Usenet impersonating the
well-liked regular named "sf" and posting all her personal data on the
net against her will, including her:

* home address
* age
* cell phone number
* husband's name

etc.

YOU did that, you evil bastard!

And then you had the hubris to actually GLOAT about in public saying:

She should call the cops. I've already publicly admitted it is me so
a conviction should be a piece of cake and then forging would stop.
So what's stopping her? I think she suffers from Bovism - she just
loves the attention and drama and screw the rest of the group.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And before that you literally stalked poor Omelet, a local Auustin
favorite, right off the Usenet!

In your worst moment ever you actually begged her to KILL you:

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then after having your nose rubbed in your filthy criminal stalking you
came back with, not an apology, nor the slightest remorse, just this:

"The facebook group is much more pleasant."

But we all know that's only because you cower over there in mortal fear
of being booted by the FB admins.

You're _so done_ here virus, I mean really fucking done.

I'm making you a project like no other, expect a lot more of your evil
abuse and hatred to be aired for all to see here.

And we both know there's a google archive full of your hatred of women
just waiting to be hung out on the virtual clothesline to dry.

Enjoy then, you rotten, worthless misogynistic bastard!
