Let's start with "Beauty and the Geek," and our rubberband-loving local Josh. Last week ended with the shocking addition of a new team featuring a male beauty and a female geek. First order of the night: pool party! And it was really boring! Let's move on to the challenge, which required the geeks to rap and the beauties to debate about current political topics. Apparently Josh's rap was so bad they didn't even bother to show more than a few seconds of him forgetting the words and jumping around on stage. Needless to say, his team did not win that challenge. As for the debating bit, his Betty Boop partner Hollie debated on the pro side of the Alaskan Arctic Refuge oil drilling debate arguing that cars can't run on canola oil, or whatever it is "hippies think we can run cars on." His team didn't win that one either, (the male beauty did). But it's all good, because they weren't picked to go through the elimination test, so Josh is around for another week.

Which leaves us with "The Bachelor." We're not buying all the hype that this Bachelor is the sexiest Bachelor yet. Sure, Brad the Texan is beefy and all, and became an "entrepreneur" without the benefit of college education, and looks pretty damn good without his shirt off, and...ok, fine. He's the sexiest Bachelor yet. (Though he could stand to get his eyebrows trimmed down.) But will the women really be the CRAZIEST yet? Oh boy, we sure hope local girl Sheena is nuts! We first see her curling her blonde hair with a curling iron, and then putting on some strappy sandals while talking about wanting the fairy tale ending. She says she's 23, which means she's at least 25.

Before he met the ladies, Brad talked with the host and revealed that he has a twin brother. Will the runner-up bacherlorette get the twin as a consolation prize?? Finally came the moment when Brad had to meet the 25 women, one at a time. That's why this show is 90 minutes long. Thank god we only cared about one of them, and she was the first one out of the limo. She admitted she was nervous and then asked for a hug, and told him it was a relief to finally meet him, which meant, we guess, that she was glad he wasn't ugly. Not much to say about the other gals initially, but there were a lot of baby doll dresses, which was to be expected.

Once he entered the hen den, there was much hooping and hollering. One girl who was an acupuncturist read his tongue, which sounds like it was sexy, but was actually just dumb. One girl admitted she once broke her nose on a bowling bowl, which caused another girl to admit she broke her face, TWICE. No explanation for either event. One girl sang to him; another did a bit of cheer routine. One girl stuck her ass in his face; another stuck her ankles behind her head and proved she could kiss her own ass. One girl lost one of her chicken cutlets; another tried to charm him with her webbed toes. One girl put on her bikini and got in the pool; another girl got the "first impression rose."

Rose ceremony time, and he sent 10 ladies home, and gave roses to 14 girls, including Sheena.

See you next week!
