I'm watching The Mole on ABC. Loved this show when it ran for a couple of seasons a few years ago. I highly suspect my love of the show had less to do with the show itself and more to do with the host of those seasons, Anderson Cooper. Unfortunately Anderson isn't back for this season, but I'll watch anyway.
They just handed journals to the players so they could keep notes on what they observe amid the challenges.
One guy took the journal and said, "I don't need this. I have a photogenic memory."
Really?

"I do not think that word means what you think it means." ~ Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride
Maybe his memory looks good on film. Sounds like he should be a CAT scan candidate.
One smart-aleck guy in a college class of mine, when the instructor questioned him about not taking notes, said, "I don't need to take notes. I have a pornographic memory." So I guess the Mole guy could be in worse shape than he is.
Tina,
I LOVE Inigo Montoya!!! Thanks for the quote.
Tina - Excellent use of the quote. Very appropriate.
Kristin - I wish I remembered which guy it was that said this - I'd see if his future behavior on the show would also create the suggestion for a CAT scan moment.
Skyepupy - HILARIOUS!!! I'm so glad I wasn't drinking tea just then.
Do you remember Celebrity Mole with Kathy Griffin? She was SO hilarious! Oh, btw- I think Anderson Cooper prefers the company of men... but he sure does look distinguished with his prematurely gray hair!
p.s.- I giggled at the photogenic memory line, but I choked on my laugh at Skypuppy's pornographic memory bit! I am @ Panera Bread and I'm trying not to look like a crazy person laughing at a laptop around all the yuppies in here!
There was a celebrity Mole? How did I miss that??
This is how Anderson Cooper illiterate I was....prior to the Mole, I didn't know he was a TV person. You'd think this would con me into watching the news.
I would have liked watching you try NOT to laugh at Skyepuppy's comment.
I love the mole too!!! And I cracked up at that as well hahahaa. I even watched the celebrity season, when Kathy Griffin won haha.
BTW Anderson Cooper didn't host the celebrity season, Ahmad Rashad did. So you didn't miss him ;)
skyepuppy: I have a computer copy of the entire script of The Princess Bride. As well as the dvd. Going to buy the book sometime soon. I'm a tPB geek.
I must admit that I've never become interested in The Mole. I do like So You Think You Can Dance which I am glad is back for the summer also.
Tina,
I was at a Christian women's conference run by Anne Graham Lotz (Billy Graham's daughter), with Fernando Orgeta to do worship. As he opened his mini-concert, he introduced himself: "I am Fernando Ortega. You killed my father. Prepare to die. If you've never seen the Princess Bride, you have no idea what I'm talking about."
Because of that introduction, I watched the movie and have been hooked ever since. But not quite as badly as you are.
Does the book have the grandpa reading story, like a book within a book, or is it just the story itself?
OOOO Tina I love So you think you can dance!
skyepuppy: I believe the book has the grandfather reading to the grandson. From what I've heard, the movie follows it well with some creative license.
phats: Twitch made it to the top 20. He's my favorite so far.
I like the Blonde girl that Nigel said looks like Uma Thermond. I was glad Twitch made it and they didn't make him the last two like they did last year.
