Apprentice!!" Did you see the heels Amy had on at the beginning of the show and when they did the closeup of her legs propped up (They had cut out sides)? Those are the exact style of my navy pumps! What a small world.
So, Troy is gone. I was kind of surprised by that. His ethics have always bothered me, but he does have spunk and a way with some people. If I didn't believe in miracles previously,

Here's what I think of the Apprentice's remaining candidates:
1) Bill's a pig. I can't believe some of the things he's said over the course of the show. I ignored it throughout the series, but last night cinched it. He may be a smart businessman, but he'd better learn to cope with sharp women fast or he's going to find himself the subject of a harassment file a foot thick. Trump likes women and respects their smarts; Bill doesn't respect them at all, and I wonder how much he truly likes them as colleagues. I'd love to see Carolyn work him over.
2) I can't figure out if Amy's really a tease, or if she's just playing one. Regardless of whether it's real or a ploy, it's ugly and unworthy of someone of her alleged brilliance. I wish she'd drop it and really compete using her head. I'll give Bill credit for recognizing her "God complex", though. She was insufferable. Gag me.
3) I was convinced Nick would be gone last night. Now I think he's quietly keeping score in his head of past events. I'm not sure if he's the one who influenced the decision of the guy who leased the space, or if Amy charmed him. I hope Nick has the stomach to get nastier regardless of who his final competition turns out to be. He's a gentleman; that boorish guy couldn't have been his father!
4) Kwame should be thanking his lucky stars for his Harvard MBA. He's not using what he learned to achieve it for developing any great strategies. As long as he avoids being front and center on big mistakes, it'll give him credibility. Doesn't Trump's son have a Harvard MBA?
5) Troy got hosed by the new guy on Trump's assessment team. Trump couldn't see the traits in Troy that he himself has. He's used his head, taken big chances with his fortune, gained billions and lost them several times over. I guess he's entitled to feel differently when someone else is going to be handling his money. Troy didn't do anything different with trying to lease the space from what any other real estate agent does on a daily basis when bidding wars pop up; he just happened to meet a guy who wouldn't join the war. I'm sorry he's gone; he was colorful, gutsy, energetic, and positive. I don't think his ethics and behavior were any more questionable than Amy's and Bill's.
I didn't watch all the previews - they're very misleading and I don't want to start speculating on who's left standing next week. But I've got to tell you, when I heard Omarosa is coming back, the first thing that popped into my head was Elton John's "The B^&*$ Is Back." Actually, I'd heard that all the ex-candidates come back for the end. Maybe I heard incorectly.
What, you don't check out everyone's shoes too??? LOL! I know, I know -- sick puppy...
My opinion of Bill has gone down over time because of his remarks. In the beginning, I thought he was a very principled guy, but he does seem to have issues about women. I'd love to see Carolyn get a hold of him too. By the way, I saw George and her on the Jay Leno show and she was dressed like a babe herself. She had on a short, black, off-the-shoulder dress, black hose, and high black ankle strap shoes. She looked much more "approachable." Jay kept mentioning how different she looked, and she said right out that business was business and this was for Jay Leno (fun). George was pretty humorous. He's an attorney, which was no surprise.
Amy is a little too impressed with herself. I guess you have to be extremely confident to play in the big leagues, but beyond a certain point it's not an attractive trait, and I don't like teases. I know she and Nick are both trying to use strategy to their advantage, but he's not as tough as she appears to be. I think he's more genuine.
I'm not sure about who influenced their deal the most, but I noticed that Nick closed it. The two could be a good team if they'd make the best of their complementary abilities instead of each wanting it his/her own way. His father was obnoxious, poor Nick.
If Troy hadn't been the leader of their group, I was convinced Kwame would be gone. During the brainstorming sessions, he was

Thanks for the e-mail with the pictures of the Kerry homesteads. I know where his place on Beacon Hill is, just never knew which one was his. Figures it's on the corner. Gives him a better view of both sides of the street.....
LOL! And, I'm sure he's passionate about both.
I thought that first picture was a small New England town at first!!!! I'm so sure he feels the working man's pain...
