"We built the pyramids!" Heh heh, I do a silly wave too! Glad I am not the only goofball out there.

In college I studied those symbols on Bieber's ribs. They basically say "I'm a douche." Jk, I have no idea what they say, but that would be Awesome. I usually DVR the episode and check the next day to see who got booted, because I get way too invested and tend toward nervousness with this show. Tonight I might watch live and would be happy to see either Meryl or Amy win, though I skew Meryl. How great would it be if Maks fainted if they won? Better than Marie Osmond, I say. (I totally thought she was faking it.)

Soooo, I am trying to get better at going to my Jazzercise because it's the kind of activity that I like. Since I am not happy with how I feel and look, you'd think that would be motivation enough. Nuh uh. I stay for at least 30mins of the 60 and will even attempt 45 mins tonight. The last 15 mins of floor work is uncomfortable for me right now; the getting down and getting back up. Sheesh. But since I am paying I really need to go! Remind me: at which point do the endorphins kick in? ;) Man, I need those buggers workin' for me!

Howdy - I seem to recall Tom mentioning last Monday night that the pros are indeed going to dance against each other for the May 5th show! That will be awesome!

I too read a lot but not necessarily one particular author. Some of my favorites are Jane Austen, Diana Gabaldon, Dickens, David McCullough, and Ron Chernow, off the top of my head. Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series until about 10 books in, then I got annoyed and bored. For about 2 years I read nearly everything in my county's libraries about the American Revolution. I've always been interested in that period and probably one of the best biographies I have ever read was Chernow's about Washington. He did a fabulous job debunking a lot of myths, which were annoying poppycock, IMHO. The truth is really so much more interesting to me, ultimately. The whole time during that book and McCullough's 1776, I kept saying to myself, 'These Americans stand no change whatsoever of winning this war. What are they thinking?!' Heh. Currently reading Bleak House and impatiently waiting for Gabaldon's book due in June. I have found that reading literature from the 19th century so fulfilling and time well spent. They are so frequently intensely evocative and rich in character, and I am often completely satisfied that I used my spare time intelligently. eta: I tried reading Faulkner because he is a favorite of my wonderful aunt, but nearly sporked my eyes out and hanged myself. Oh, and anything Oprah recommends I stear clear; I have learned my lesson. Too depressing.

Sheldon: *knock knock knock* Penny: (on the other side of her apartment door) 'Who do you love?!" Sheldon: Penny? (and 2 more times). Cracked me up.

His incredulous reaction to that gift is one of my favorite moments. Also, there was some audience member with a whooping high-pitched laugh that totally made me lose it.

"What did zero say to eight?" "Nice belt!" so cute. I love most of the characters and actors but still need to warm to Kate and the teenage daughter. They are not quite doing it for me. I hope this show stays around. My viewing it on my DVR might not help that though. Does anyone watch tv real time these days?!

It's sort of OOT, but I absolutely lovelovelove Holden's reaction to Lucy's nose catching alight. Makes me laugh Every.Time. And Lucy's 'scissor-cutting' gesture to Ethel. Man, now I want pasta. "Paging Ava Gardner.' Fred: 'Where?! Where?!" ...."She might be 'people' but she's NOT like you and me!"

"I wanted a TOASTER!" I say this when I am distressed and not getting my way, even if it's not about a toaster. Lol. Yeah, dorky. Thanks to my mom, I watched the reruns growing up and have purchased VHSs back in the day, and DVDs currently. There are so many great moments and I still quote from it with my mom. (I'm 47 and she will be 70). We have quite this type of humor ourselves so we have a grand time remembering and discussing the show. I love that it's still on the telly and I usually will stop to watch it if I am lazily flipping channels.

Sometimes I have trouble following this show though I like it, mostly for JLM. So I must have missed this: did they explain why Alistair regressed? Having been an acting major, I focus on that a lot, and sometimes forget the story. Heh. JLM made me tear up a bit. I love him though his decison to button his shirts all the way up makes me claustrophobic and choke-y. ETA: gaaawwwd, I need to proof read before posting.

If you go to Wikipedia and search DWtS in particular season, they list each song with that couple. Very convenient! Type in something like 'Dancing with the Stars (U.S. season 1)' in the search field, scroll, scroll, scroll, et voila.

Has anyone watched the black and white version of the pilot? It's an extra on my blu-ray and it's trippy to see it that way. What I found interesting was how sanitized black and white makes bloody graphic scenes. A bit more stomach-able, but still disturbing of course.

Please do share! Not sure how I missed that since I have been rabidly following info on FB...

Medicare or mediocre, I think he can help both perform well ! lol. Awesome typo. I totally agree with you and that's what makes him my fave pro. Maks is more my taste, man-wise, heh heh, but I love Derek's personality and attitude. It does almost seem like he's been getting off scot-free but I believe he has so risen to the challenge. (that's not a double entendre, pervs). The last couple of partners seem to be answering that criticism, IMO. And look what he's done! Just fab. Go, Derek!

I love 'General Gabbery" ! It reminds me of TWoP and I vote to keep it. RIP TWoP. ::sniff::

Blerg, don't say that @Omar G. I cannot imagine this show without Daryl, nor Rick or Carl. Don't get the hate for Carl but ah well. And Michonne, Carol....bah. Just no.
