Tonight's episode was dedicated to the marine made famous in the recent movie World Trade Center.

Quite moving!

Typically this is an action that causes an automatic revocation of your man card, however since it involved a marine we'll let this one slide with a warning. However you must still do something manly tonight to atone for your transgression.;)

I tear up a lot at that show. Although they're getting very repetitive, too obviously scripted in lots of places. And some of the people I just plain can't feel bad for (6 kids, no job, pregnant, and just happens to be helpful to the community).

While it was a good show they certainly did over dramatize everything. Way too many American flags...

When that show first came on, I watched it and really liked it because they were helping people who really needed it and who would never be able to have a basic home otherwise. Then they started going way overboard and building mansions for people that already had a decent home. Granted, they have some pretty deserving recipients, but it's just not the same...
