ileliberteI walked four miles for the heard-of-but-never-seen-before huge Asian supermarket and it was completely worth it. I have a huge green mango! And lots of squid! And cilantro that looks unlike any cilantro I have ever seen! Someday I will be adventurous enough to buy the rather awful looking sea cucumbers, and rich enough to buy the amazing looking jumbo shrimps.
Pork chops broiled after marinating in garlic, ginger, lemongrass, rice vinegar and soy sauce is gastronomic heaven. To make it all even more amazing, broil some olive-oil brushed yellow peppers on the side. Mmmmm.
I am in TV heaven. SPN is wonderful, Chuck is fun as ever, Bones is entertaining, and I'm enjoying The Mentalist. Re: the last one, how is Simon Baker so hot? How?

paintedspires, run don't walk. there are quite a few creepy cool images up already. Warnings for crack, awesome skills and GORE.
Incredibly cool sketches of celebrities with just a few lines but you can tell who they are right away. Two artists, very different styles and both completely amazing.
Christmas/end of year holidays is still a ways away, but care packages take time. Soldiers' Angels is a wonderful volunteer-led non-profit organization that helps you send care packages and more to men and women who are deployed (and include other services for soldiers and their families as well). Think about it, even if it's just a minor donation.

Craig Ferguson is hilarious 96% of the time, and I want him as a friend. This is him on the election and voting. He manages to be funny as well as make a whole lot of sense. Why is he on so late at night?
