It's Monday night, and as many of you could have predicted, I'm putting the finishing touches on my post about tonight's three hour finale of The Bachelor, which will include another interview with last year's winner Jesse Csinscak.

BTD is still busy preparing for his hearing which, due to the snowstorm on the East Coast, got postponed until tomorrow.

I'll be tivo-ing "24" while watching the Bachelor finale and then Jimmy Kimmel (who has Jason on live tonight) so here's an open thread, the place is all yours tonight.

All topics welcome, and if you think I'm crazy for following the Bachelor so closely, or want to talk about other tv shows, please put those comments here, not in the Bachelor thread. I'll check in during commercials.

BTD is busy at work today. Me too. Here's an open thread for you, all topics welcome.
