that she has supposedly been approached about having her own talk show???? EW!! I saw part of her morning appearance that was reshown on one of the infotainment shows and part of her appearance on Conan is on AOL today. She looks as though she's just Miss Congeniality in a beauty pageant to see her now. She's also considering designing a line of business suits and accessories. Double EW!


Can't wait to see who it is who crosses Carolyn in the board room tonight!

Double EEWW coming at you from the North. That's a show I won't be taping or watching and a clothing/accessory line I won't be buying. (Never say never, though - if there's a chance her shoes are comfortable, I might just have to hold my nose and buy a pair....Rhonda, what if she has really great navy pumps?????)

I'm going to do my workout to The Apprentice. I heard today that the boardroom meeting in the final show is going to be live. Apparently it's not been taped yet. Peter listens to Imus in the Morning on the way to work and either on Wednesday or Thursday mornings one of Imus's guests is Trump. He really is an engaging guy - knows where to go for free publicity. He was all over Troy again - he likes that guy. Imus called one of the women "awful" - I didn't catch which one, but I'm hoping he meant Katrina.

I had to laugh about the pumps. Thank goodness I already found navy ones; however, I know what you mean about shoes...


I just saw a clip on AOL that the teams

Can't believe Heidi is gone! I feel so bad for her as hard as she's worked and with her mother's illness and all. I thought Trump would be PO'd that Troy let friendship with Kwame determine his selection and was shocked that Carolyn felt that Heidi hadn't shown her anything and had ridden on other people's coattails. I'd say that describes Kwame.


I was very impressed with the advertising idea Amy came up with for the other team. She's probably the most creative of the candidates. Kristina is annoying. She has an attitude, and I think she's jealous of Amy. Plus, if she doesn't get her way, she does as little as possible and drags the team down. She should be next to go if they lose. I would imagine that Trump will shift the teams again, since it's now 4 to 2.


So, what's your reaction?

I'm REALLY cranky that Heidi's gone. There's such potential there. She showed me a lot of grit and determination, and I can't believe that doesn't count for something. A few sessions of executive training to smooth out the rough spots (we used to call it "charm school" at my old job) and I think she's be ready for the job. I think she had leadership potential in her, and got squeezed into the role of "doer" on the team because no one else could or would. I bet she'd have made a ton of money if she'd been peddling that bike around instead of Kwame.

Troy has shown me that he's good at male bonding and Kwame has shown me that he's a milquetoast. And why was Heidi a project manager just once? Gee, could it be that the team used to be bigger, her next chance in the rotation hadn't come up yet (if the rotation method was truly how they were deciding who would be PM), and all the other rotating PMs had been canned? That was not one of Carolyn's, or the Donald's, smarter questions. If George had been the one to decide who was going to get the ax, I'm sure Troy would be headed back to Idaho.

I'm still trying to figure out the promotion for the episode - "don't cross Carolyn". Who crossed her? I'm interpreting "crossed" in the literal sense. She didn't act like someone who had been crossed and had a lot of ammo to back her up. To me, she just behaved as crankily as someone in the grips of really bad PMS. I also thought she was really off-hand in her attitude - real high-and-mighty, I'm-making-this-choice-because-I'm-powerful-and-I-can-so-there. I was waiting for the "harumph" and the crossed arms.

The advertising idea was brilliant - I was surprised to see that the pedicabs were so bare to begin with and that no one had come up with the idea long ago. And using their past contacts - equally brilliant, a built-in market. I didn't think Bill had it in him to see even something so obvious. Katrina - please be the next to go! Nick and Amy - an interesting dynamic. They're both clever businesspeople, but I can't get a clear bead on who's more devious. I'm guessing Amy, since ethics appear to be genuinely important to Nick and Amy kind of clams up when such issues arise. I think Nick had better watch his back.

Rats! Not a satisfying episode at all....

I was on the phone with Mom tonight when suddenly there's Omarosa on Inside Edition being interviewed. Unfortunately, Mom was talking so I couldn't really hear everything, but the gist of it was that she accused Ereka of using the "N-word" (Why is that one of the only words in the English language that has to be referred to by it's initial, but other slurs are OK? I mean, it shouldn't be used, but if you're discussing it in conversation, it's a little weird.) Anyway, Ereka said she hadn't and Heidi said she'd never heard her say it either. Trump said the tapes show no evidence of it. That should sour him on Omarosa totally.
