Okay… I know that a lot of my boys are going to want to clown me on this one, but…. I LOVE PROJECT RUNWAY. Out of all the “reality” shows that got vomited onto our television screen this show stands head and shoulders above the rest. The thing about the show that really sets it apart is that it is a show of skill. There aren’t a bunch of disjointed, hokey challenges that leave you, pretty much saying “so what!?”… The show at it’s core is a demonstration of skill. The show also has legs (pun intended). The show can be translated into many other disciplines not just fashion. As a viewer it is truly awesome and rewarding to see these people grow and change and challenge themselves. The constraints that they are under and yet then still come up with something *fabulous* week after week. Wow! I am excited for this show, I am excited for the people, and the drama is 100% home grown from the crucible of stress and triumph. I may not always agree with the judges. I mean really I think that they are so full of shit some times but regardless the human drama is so beautifully captured. I feel rewarded and enriched as a viewer. And last but not least… Heidi Klum… c’mon, to see her step out and address the designers week after week looking AMAZING is a very welcomed plus. Yes, the Project Runway people got it right.
The thing is; fashion is universal. We are all… er… well most of us… 
captured by fashion, in some way or another. Whether it is a bangin’ pair of kicks that you just copped or a timeless sweater that you keep rockin’ year after year and people still give you props on it… fashion is a very big part of who we are because it is how we show ourselves. I know I got this OLD corduroy jacket, looking like an original black cowboy, and it still gets comments and tall props from the ladies when I rock it 
. Even though I am a jeans and T-shirt guy… you better believe that the right jeans and the right T-shirt (with the right kicks of course) is what really lays the foundation for the day.
I know people remember back to high school. You know you had to rock the LEEs with the pin-stripes with the razor sharp crease, with your bone white Stan Smith, shell toe, Addidas. You know you were the hotness when you had that butta Kangol with your Addidas suit. And the fashion was functional too, cause really, what is better to back spin on your square of linoleum in? I rest my case eh ehm… I digress…
So keep up the great work Project Runway… I am in your corner. Maybe the show taps into the New Yorker in me, which is pretty much all 99.89% of me (since I am from BROOKLYN!!!! What!?)
P.S.
Heidi… My girl is German too (reppin’ Giessen) and she would probably give me a pass to make sweet love to you… or at least have you join us. Call me .
