Pork Tenderloin is the Constant


  • Jason: Okay, so I accidentally tripped and turned the wheel on the island and went into the future one week. While there, I learned about a few things that happened during this coming week :
  • 1) While arguing a kickball call, Ben took a kickball to the face and lost his remaining sight
  • 2) Someone yelled "fire" at 40s night and Emily frantically knocked over everyone's drinks, smiling while doing it
  • 3) Matt was pressured into purchasing all of the songs we do not currently have on Rockband
  • 4) Zach finds out that the secret ingredient in Balvenie 12year scotch is baby orphan blood, but says "its the orphans' fault for having such delicious blood"
  • 5) Kate learned that her class size would grow to 210 developmentally challenged students come Monday
  • 6) While trying to top her ice cream sampler idea from last week, Tressa did a hard-boiled egg sampler and was met with mixed reviews
  • 7) Instead of watching new episodes of Lost, 30 rock, and The Office, Aubrey successfully lobbies for all of us to watch a 5 hour CSI marathon. She is never spoken to again.
  • 8) I make a delicious Pan-roasted pork tenderloin with mango salsa that is the hit of 40 night. Everyone screams my praises from the rooftops.
  • Long story short, i will be making said pork tenderloin with roasted potatoes this week. And thanks to the island's magic powers, i already know you will enjoy it.
  • Tressa: Just incase Aubs doesn't work out, Kate would you mind sending me one of your 210 kids to pick me up? I figured with that many, someone would show up!
  • Kate: Yeah- they will arrive by tricycle.
  • Matt: I just had a horrifying Lost-esque flashforward to a time when hundreds of children are riding through the streets of Ballston causing accidents and various havoc as a result of their misguided vigor, laughing as if all the chaos is just a game. And then it ended and I was sitting back at my desk. Guys, I think the island wants us to go back.
  • Me: I was there too! I didn't see you but I did find out that stickers are the future form of currency. It's terrifying, but I had some awesome Lisa Frank stickers on me at the time, which actually meant I was filthy rich.
