Look Ma! I’m On TV!
For those of you who are new to the blog, I entered and won a reality TV show contest on the W Network in 2009 (the Ultimate W Expert Search). The contest was trying to find someone who could become a new W Expert for the W Network in any field of expertise (money, gardening, beauty, etc.). The prize was a development deal for my very own TV show. That’s still being worked on in the background, but in the meantime W is running the second season of the Ultimate W Expert Search. It’s expanded from last year: there are four webisodes (you can watch them on the W site) which whittled the top 10 contestants down to the top 6. Now, the top 6 are going to duke it out for the next three weeks on national television. The episodes are also expanded from 30 minutes to a full hour each.
The first episode airs Wednesday night at 8pm on the W Network. The second and third episodes air on the following two Wednesdays. I’ll be one of the judges (it’s payback time!!!!!)

I just keep thinking that the rest of my life will be an endless expanse of grim heartache without my Star Trek Spork. How do I go on?
Preet
Not to pour salt in your wounds, but the spork is an exact replica of the one Student Spock used in the JJ Abrams movie. It’s pretty bad ass. You can buy your own at Think Geek.
