You know, A, if you were on the show as a _contestant_, the show probably wouldn't be as
boring.  "Hey, he backed into my 10" Dick, just as I was about to slice some of this garlic
into my stir-fry.  You call 911 for him, while I go take care of my knife.  I think one of his
ribs knicked my blade."  If you were on the show as a _judge_, you would outshine Ming, Todd and
Michael _and_ make the show much more interesting and informative.  But that is just my opinion.

Optimism is an intellectual choice.
