http://makeashorterlink.com/?T691230BI can't figure out who is being degraded more, the guy, or the 15 "bachelorettes" that he personally selected to "get to know better". I saw an ad for it and thought it was a joke.... What do you all think?

I thought you were making up the name "Glutton Bowl", and then I googled it... quote: Gastronomic Gold!February 21, 2002 Tonight, the biggest and fastest "gastronomic athletes" from around the world are lining up for the most outrageous, gut-busting fest to hit the small screen -- "The Glutton Bowl: The World's Greatest Eating Competition." In the first round, contestants will be judged on how fast they can down huge quantities of food --- bowls of mayonnaise, beef tongue, sticks of butter, and other edibles. Winners in each round earn a spot in the finals, which, as expected, is an all-out gorge-fest. The competition ends when only one pro glutton is left standing.

The whole idea makes my skin crawl. These women are young enough to write the whole thing off as a youthful indiscretion, but I hope they burn with shame before they blur into their deserved obscurity.Or perhaps there will be some celebrity sprinkled on the passed-over ("former finalist in The Bachelor!"). Or maybe one will kill herself, or shoot another contestant, or reveal herself as married already, or really gay, or having an child out of wedlock. Cynic that I am, I'm counting on the producers to have built that in. M
