I lost some respect for him when I observed him plow
through an airplane meal robotically (perhaps he was
merely jet-lagged) and the rest of it when I watched
him play the fool or Greek chorus on Iron Chef America.

The guy is above average, I suppose, among presenters,
but his grasp of the facts is not as complete as one
would hope; plus a lot of his show was presented in
an irritatingly infantile way, but then that might have
been the fault of the Food Network's editorial style.

Eventually the experience will make you stronger, one
hopes. But the adage can't be taken too seriously, and
when I cite it, it's usually for humorous effect.

I just had this vision of scooters. Could you use scooters?
