Tom is making steel cut oatmeal for breakfast! Yum.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm watching Sandra Lee's money-saving show. She's making something with roasted eggplant, and she brushed the eggplant with canola oil rather than olive oil to save money, but then she's using some fresh rosemary as a garnish in her cocktail! This is so not how I would save money.

Now I kinda' feel like a vulture.
The best deals I ever got were when my favorite comic book store closed.
The nice thing about being a vulture is that they're already dead. You're just doing your part to redistribute the resources.

Sandra Lee's meals only save money if you have a bulk purchasing discount with the liquor distributors like she does.

When I'm trying to save money on food, fresh herbs are the very first thing that I stop buying. And she's not even eating the rosemary -- she's using it as a garnish.

Excellent! Btw, my Francophile-cineaste, did you know that Henri-George Clouzot's Inferno (the documentary about his unfinished film with Romy Schneider) is playing at the Roxie? I've seen the clips on YouTube and what film he actually shot is unbelievably ravishing.

I did not know. My movie focus has been almost entirely on Oscar watching.

Oscars vs. lost French art film? Prole!
Need I remind you that Crash won a few years ago?
Whoa, the Roxie is showing a triple bill of After School Specials. Fun!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
As an almost-overlooked last resort, I decided to check my cable bin before I did some online shopping. ::is sheepish:: Yes, I have a video component cable. Yes, I have audio cables. Yes, I have a number of short network cables.
And many other cables I can't identify.
So now all my peripherals are hooked up to the TV and to the network.
Where's a simple place to find the maximum resolutions transmitted by each sort of hookup (HDMI, DVI, component, etc)? I realise I've kinda been guessing.
