Nico - These Days

“These Days”

Mmhm, oh yeah.

Very cool… if by chance you haven’t seen the movie yet, just these quick shots should give you an idea of how damned beautiful the film is to look at. And of course the soul and character that apparently permeates both the Tarantino film and its production.

Now this is a fucking cooking class. If you’ll pardon my french.

I’m leaning towards it not being OK to see The Ghost Writer. I get that there was likely a plea agreement violated for Roman Polanski, and a number of other justifications, but I just can’t think of a reason it’s OK to enjoy the art of a child rapist.

Which sucks, cuz boy does it look good.

“The word “spreadsheet” came from “spread” in its sense of a newspaper or magazine item (text and/or graphics) that covers two facing pages, extending across the center fold and treating the two pages as one large one. The compound word “spread-sheet” came to mean the format used to present book-keeping ledgers—with columns for categories of expenditures across the top, invoices listed down the left margin, and the amount of each payment in the cell where its row and column intersect—which were, traditionally, a “spread” across facing pages of a bound ledger (book for keeping accounting records) or on oversized sheets of paper ruled into rows and columns in that format and approximately twice as wide as ordinary paper.”

Discounting networking (i.e. communication or information retrieval) I think spreadsheets are the most important tool in a computer. Maybe because I’m not a writer or artist, but then most people aren’t.

Ridiculous.

Come up with your own elaborate “Death Row Dinner” — i.e. last meal if you’re on death row — sell it out, and Chef Sawyer will make it happen.

Too cool.

Did you know there is a microformat for recipes? Seems like a good thing.

This is the best person in the world.

This guy left some high-end restaurants in San Francisco, wore an “Ohio” t-shirt for his Food & Wine spread with up-and-comers, was an intense competitor in the Next Iron Chef competition, and is now opening a pizza joint in NYC. A pizza joint that sounds exactly like what Bar Cento here in Cleveland started putting out about 2 years ago. Catch up, New York!
