Home Ec, Greasing Models, and Pink Camouflage Underwears

By Evan Marc Katz

October 20, 2004 

If I’m Pamela Day watching my former colleagues celebrate my getting fired, I can’t feel too good right now.  But cheer up Pamela, being known nationwide as the “ice queen” is better than being known as “Omarosa.”

Stacy Rotner recounts her embarrassing and over-the-top statement that hiring Pamela is like hiring Enron... I’d wager Trump's "billions" that she’d brag about trouncing her four-year-old niece in chess too. 

Stacy: “We’ve been hardcore, but let’s be harder core.”  Unless you’re directing a Boogie Nights sequel, there is absolutely no excuse for uttering those words.

Kevin Allen emerges shirtless to answer the gold phone…and millions of women pause their TiVos. Damn.  I think I want his body more than I want Jennifer Massey’s.  (wait, that didn’t come out right.  I mean I want his rock-hard abs—oh, forget it.)

Chris Russo’s politically incorrect nugget of the day: a competition for “how fast we could grease a dozen models.”  Does this man have Trump-like aspirations or what?

Maria Boren says she’s qualified to be a fashion project manager because of her minor in home economics.  Wow!  This raises several questions: 1) They teach Home Ec after 8th grade?  2) Regent University, an accredited school where Maria went to college, actually teaches Home Ec?  3) Does this mean one can actually major in Home Ec there as well?  4) Why in the world didn’t she mention her Home Ec background on her resume?

Wes Moss, sounding dangerously like a record exec from yesteryear attempting to understand kids today: we want someone “not too out there, but still being able to create something fresh.” Thanks for clearing that up for us, Morty.

How is it nobody laughed when a potential designer for the women’s team said, “Color is really important to me.”  Could you picture a NASA engineer saying in an interview, “Space is really important to me.”?

How about this fashion newsflash?  “New for fall are shapes.”  What the hell does that mean?  Square hats?  Pants with octagons? Double-helixed sleeves?  Darren, make me a tetrahedron blouse, pronto.

John Willenborg, momentarily channeling Chris’ personality: “If you put a nice model in that with no top, that looks great.”  Yes, I had to push rewind to make sure I heard him right too. 

Chris quickly reclaims his rightful mantle as the
team’s Neanderthal, expressing surprise that Kelly is not wearing “pink camouflage underwears.”  I looked that up on the “Internets” and found no such items.  Which makes sense, since if you’re going to camouflage your manhood, lace panties are probably the better way to go.

One minute of watching the guys stammer around the models goes a long way in explaining how strippers easily clear six figures in a year.   

The mark of a man with no game: Raj Bhakta strutting around like Hugh Hefner around a group of models.  Please shoot me.  No, better yet, shoot Raj.

Carolyn cries with laughter.  Red Sox beat Yankees.  Hell freezes over. 

Maria gleefully tries on her team’s line of clothing.  Would anyone have been surprised if she asked to model it as well?  I hear that she majored in modeling…

A gong just marked Trump’s entrance to the fashion show.  This usually means there will be flying ninjas.  I’m still waiting…
