Random Musings:

- Thank you all for tuning in to the Eddie Show, it's all Eddie, all the time and his weird clay face.

- Damn immunity - Eddie would have been SOOOO gone. His room looked like a bad showroom at a local furniture store where a fat man in a bad fitting suit with a John Wayne Gacy mustache approaches you the minute you walk in the door.

- Andrea - normally 'quitters' get shit on, but I can understand what she was dealing with - I get the feeling that not only did she no longer want to be on the show, but I think the show as a bit life affirming for her in that she most likely will NOT pursue a career in design. Reminds me of a lot of kids that drop Pre-Med after the first year. I think she realizes that design is her hobby, but being a mother and raising her family is her true passion. I'm sure others will shit on her, but that's her life. I think she got married at around 20. She's probably never been away from her 4 kids for an extended period of time. And would this show really advance their carreers? I think if you had cash to spend on a designer, you'd find the one you felt was the best, not a newbie. I feel for her, but will miss her nice body and Amy Adams looking self.

- Ondine is still smelling a fart. Oh, and her chandelier looked a nut sack. Ever see those ball bag trailer hitch things that hilljackers have on the back of their pickups? That was her light.



- Simon Doonan - I think he's hysterical on the 'I Love the 70s, 80s, 90s, etc'

- LOVE the clash with Jeff Lewis next week. He says Johnny Adler's stuff is ugly and when beehive hairdo Margaret calls him out, Jeff says 'look at what he's wearing'. Seriously, Jonathan dresses like a clown. Reminds me of a little kid dressing like a clown on Halloween.

- Iconic Potter - I saw them open for My Morning Jacket last month :) Seriously though, the '80's' vase that Andrea used? I thought it was one of Jonathon's iconic pots. Seriously, his shit is not earth shattering. Apparently he's a 'brilliant designer' because they tell us he is. Sorry, I dont see it. Pretty much any person can look at the shit Candace Olsen does on TV and say 'holy shit, that looks fucking awesome and I'd love that shit in my house'. Johnny's? Not so much.

- Nathan - can someone explain him to me? First of all, I want his deviated septum fixed pronto. Secondly, I just dont find his design to be as awesome as everyone says. It looked eratic and wild - the painting was something you'd see at one of the dopey shoe stores that sell weird Pumas and have Asian DJ's spinning records in the window (whilst wearing wool knit caps when it's 86 degrees out in July). Of course the two queens who dress like circus clowns would like that shit. 'Bratty rich girl' - nothing said 'rich' about that room, except a $40,000 light fixture and a big fucking horse that every kid would climb on and eventually break their necks. By why spend $2,500 on that. If you wanted a big wooden horse, just stick India in the room.

- Preston - he geniunely seems like a nice guy. He seems like's trying to be a professional and advance his DESIGN career, whereas someone like Eddie is trying to advance the 'Eddie Ross' brand (BTW - loved when the judges called shit on that). Eddie acts like an 8 year old girl (like SOOOO many of these Bravo contestants), whereas Preston acts like an adult. He's the favorite, but his style reminds me EXACTLY of the guy Matt who won last year. The judges are apparently looking for a 'type'.

- Marth Stewart - again, when did Martha become a bastion of style for all? Certain people are known as high-end, bad ass designers. Martha Stewart makes shit for KMart for fuck's sake. Her 'style' is cribbed by chubby housewives in Des Moines who once went to Nantucket and want to get that 'Cape Cod beachy airy' feel in their suburban Des Moines bungalow and it always winds up looking like ass. For a guy who talks so much shit, Eddie don't bring it.

I think Preston wins.
