catesta Posted September 21, 2004 Report Posted September 21, 2004 Yeah, I'd go up to $40 a day. Are meals included? B-) Of course. Quote
RDK Posted September 21, 2004 Report Posted September 21, 2004 Never seen her or her shows. Just checked the Food Network schedule and she seems to be on mostly while I'm at work. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled... Meanwhile, did I tell you that my 3-year old girls are in love with Alton Brown? Quote
JSngry Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Posted September 22, 2004 Alton Brown is the Bill Nye of food. And howzabout Mark Summers, whom I remember as host of Double Dare (along with the lovely Robin!), turning up now on Unwrapped? But neither one of them stir my imagination the way that Rachael Ray does. Quote
chris olivarez Posted September 22, 2004 Report Posted September 22, 2004 JSngry does she sautee your imgination too? Quote
JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 Just checking to see if this thread had been deleted or not. Quote

JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 (edited) And FWIW, the original intent of this thread was not to single out Ms. Ray's anatomy (you'll note that the omission of a photo in the opening post was noted quite clearly), but instead to focus on the allure that she creates through body language, facial expressions, and overall attitude. The "usual suspects" will get my attention, but it takes a lot more than that to capture my imagination. It takes personality - that combination of knowledge, curiosity, humor, confidence, sexual awareness, and overall "joy of living" that we all possess in differing quantities and proportions. Ms. Ray is by no means unattractive, but the world is full of not unattractive women. It is not her appearance but her personality, her personal charisma that attracts me to watch her shows. If that makes me simple-minded, so be it, but I have to ask - if a man is not supposed to be feel (not "act out", mind you) something about physical attractiveness in a woman, and if a man is not supposed to be intrigued by the personality of a woman, what the hell IS a man supposed to be moved by? I find Rachael Ray's personality (and the way she expresses it on her shows) intriguing. She's not the only woman I feel that from, nor is hers the only personality type that does that to me. And - I've been deliriously monogamous (ok, sometimes simply delirious, but I've given as well as I've gotten in that regard) for over 20 years, so it's not like I'm the president of the "I Want A Date With Rachael Ray Even Though I Know It'll Never Happen Club". Get real. In a broadcast landscape filled with silicone bimbosity, pestilent perkiness, and shameless sluttery, Rachael Ray stands out as a female television personality who actually seems like an interesting person. I was in the mood to say that, so I did. There it is if you like it, there it is if you don't like it. I take no responsibility for what others have posted in this thread, but damn if I feel like I have to apologize for starting it. Edited September 25, 2004 by JSngry Quote
JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 looking is with the eyes, not the post button Ah, but I found this thread through the search function and was not able to ascertain if it was still in "active" staus or not without actually making a post. Or at least that's what I think. Maybe I'm wrong. Quote

JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 Well, maybe I won't. No "maybe" to it, in fact. And the part of the Organissimo community that I feel the closest kinship to is a little bit more multifaceted than that. If I have to refrain from posting something like this because the "burgers and porn" boys have taken over, well.... Quote

JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 I stand (sit, actually) corrected! My bad. Quote

JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 (edited) Nice, but it's no Rachael Ray! Edited September 25, 2004 by JSngry Quote
JSngry Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 Exactly my point. Or a portion of it, anyway. Quote
catesta Posted September 27, 2004 Report Posted September 27, 2004 well, maybe you should. you act as if you don't know that the average organissimo poster feeds on burgers & beer and surfs porn sites all day. Thank for reminding me of this. I spilled my Dr. Pepper all over my chili cheese dog when I read this. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 28, 2005 Report Posted October 28, 2005 Having recently been exposed to the amazing Ms. Ray, I just had to bump this topic up... Quote
Free For All Posted October 28, 2005 Report Posted October 28, 2005 Having recently been exposed to the amazing Ms. Ray, I just had to bump this topic up... ← What, did you show her your moosehood? Quote
RDK Posted October 28, 2005 Report Posted October 28, 2005 Pretty soon she's gonna be on daytime TV everyday... (I assume Moose saw her on Letterman a few nights ago?) Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 29, 2005 Report Posted October 29, 2005 Actually, the house we bought had the cable left on from the previous owners, for about two weeks. Unfortunately, they didn't leave the switch box, so we had to choose between things like Lifetime, C-Span2 and The Food Network. Minor league politicians are okay, but I'll take Rachael Ray over 'em anyday! Quote
Johnny E Posted October 29, 2005 Report Posted October 29, 2005 Yes, she has an earthy look, yet a sweet and bubbly (almost girlish) demeanor. I like. Quote
