I've used this. It works.

That was great.

You are probably true. I could also see him being really into wine. I'd also bet that Iain Lanvivich is a fan of Budweiser products.

That eating carbohydrates is somehow bad for you, or will make you gain weight.

Look at this guy: Campbell Ewald - Dave Lockwood "Good Jazz. Good Conversation. What Else Do You Need?" Come on. As for Ian Lavavich, he was the right man at the right time. The old guys who were terrified of "The Internet" were crapping their Depends Undergarments, and he just stepped up and said he was an expert. They all believed him. But he is not a creative.

Carl Levin is a tightwad. He used to stiff all the tipped employees when he'd come to the Ritz-Carlton for events. Plus, he's got a preposterous comb-over. All more meaningful than his position on Iraq.

Did you look at his picture?

Here's the negative I see: Campbell Ewald - Iain Lanivich

Obviously, I'm not sure of the calibre of the restaurants you ate at in Rome, but I'd be shocked if the Olive Garden was actually better. I don't doubt that you *prefer* Olive Garden; you may have just not reached the level of refined palate necessary to make a worthwhile judgment.

'Thank You For That Gift': Memories Of Van Cliburn From Medalists : Deceptive Cadence : NPR I saw Nakamatsu perform at the '97. Though I didn't think he deserved to place in the Top 3 -- let alone win (I agree with Nakamatsu himself that his win was pure luck) -- his words here show class. RIP to one of the greats.

A coworker of mine recently went gluten-free and has been pleased with the results. She's on vacation this week, however. I'll ask her for feedback when she returns to the office and circle back to this thread.

I'm enjoying this tonight: Robust, complex, rich.

I also am peeved by hotel showers with knobs that aren't intuitive: I don't know who the jackass was that thought a single knob was more intuitive or effective than separate knobs for hot and cold. It's probably the same jackass that invented the sink faucets that you have to hold down to get water.

I can see a watch like this being useful if you had a bunch of work-related emergencies a lot, but man I would HATE being this plugged-in to my office. While you're relaxing with a Tigers game? Man, that's my time. If there's something that's truly urgent, someone will call me. I recently disabled the auto-check of emails on my iPhone because I got tired of the constant notifications. The vast majority of emails and texts can wait. I would like to see what Apple does with this though. The model posted in this thread is really hideous, IMO.

I like "Death of a Disco Dancer" by the Smiths, and the whole "Queen Is Dead" album.
