Curses foiled again!

Lots of dinners this week...Wednesday, Ted, Larry, and I went out to dinner with our friend David whom we hadn't seen in months. I think the last time we saw him was at my "Press Your Pot Luck" party. It was a good dinner...did a lot of catching up and stuff.

Then, Thursday night, Drew and I went out with our other friend David. Not the David mentioned above, but the David who's helped out quite a bit with advising various recent game shows on stats and figures. Dinner this time was at the Cheesecake Factory at the new Sherman Oaks Galleria. It was then that I fell for...well...here's what happened. I was knoshing on some dessert. It was this luscious Hershey's Chocolate Almond cheesecake. Mmmmmm...So, we're there and Drew starts sniffing at my cheesecake. He then tells me, "I think something smells funny with your cheesecake." I start sniffing the cheesecake and...POW...He pushes my nose into the whipped cream. I had this glob of whipped cream on my nose...Blarg...Damn, you Drew! hee-hee :-)

In the midst of some surfing, I did my new tradition of dropping by Television Without Pity to check on the "American Idol" boards and recaps. Somebody had posted one of the finalist's weblogs. That finalist is Jim, the cute guy whose parents are deaf...the one whom Keith has theorized got into the finals as the result of a "fuck you Simon" contingent amongst the viewers. Anyhoo, his blog proved the suspicion I had all along that he played for the time. He has since taken the blog down. But nevertheless, it was quite a curious discovery in my web travails yesterday...
