What’s your favorite spice to cook with and/or eat? And what’s is a pronounced memory of this spice?

Feel free to post your answer to my blog, reply in email, or otherwise.

Ran across Kelli Sae link in an email. She seems like a nice voice and presence; I’m feel absence of a grab or certain something. http://www.kellisae.com/audio/mp3h/03.mp3

There is a film script here, just the guy going for his anal pleasure c.o his woman

Where might I find soy yogurt - that is vegan - covered raisins? peanuts? soy nuts? ANYTHING?!

And could something be created, and well sold, akin to Kellogg’s new Yogos product, that is 100% whole foods, or mostly healthy anyhow? Yogos are small pellets with a “yogurty inside, fruity inside”, Learned about from Essence magazine (May 2006, p. 251)

If I did it all over again from graduation, I do believe I would’ve gone into food development, stayed in Minnesota, and worked that angle. Ah well, I might’ve been a real tramp had I stayed beyond that first year post-graduation.

And I’m still able to do food development, albeit with different geography and corporate partners.

Just ordered Gregory Douglass’ STARK rightfully pumped by Out Magazine (October 2006, p. 44). He’s his own creature for sure, somewhere in the metro of Sarah McLachlan, Tori, and softer moody cafe crooners. Look forward to hearing this on my iPod. (Decided to pay a lot more and ordered the actual disc. Perhaps I’ll gift it to someone? or simply resell par usual. Wanted him to earn more on it.) Big thanks to OUT!

Billboard (Jan. 28 2006, p. 20) notes the Irish music biz inaugarated an award similar to UK’s Mercury as they continue to grow. I wonder how that relates to Dublin growing from the various tech, and other, industries moving in over the last decade or so. Relished the memories and visit just one year ago walking up the way for fresh juice and groceries this AM. Yum.

From some 2005 Out Traveler, I wrote “to advance, we must consider agin honestly for this is how time moves us. looking back is good and certaingly an educaiton too, though perhaps not propelled as we’d like.”

From Fast Company (Dec. ‘05, p.12),”Animation is the only part of film production where quality is going up while costs are going down.” Unions withstanding, I think we need to begin seeing this for filmmaking in general. I really am more prone to a cooperative profit sharing, beyond a base/basic salary payment, in my company’s model.

BET had an ad, in Billboard, quite awhile back saying they were #1 in 2005 in five different categories. I’m so unimpressed. Of course, it’s about more than money with me. As well, I think it’s funny they’ve made it to 25 being so shallow and weathering the consistent criticism about shallow (if quite profitable) programming. Would love to see some better/highbrow amidst all the other stuff. Ah, dreaming again, yes, I am!

Found this VV article about Latin freestyle’s early 80s origins being a compromise as hip-hop early on was quite black, and demanded to be strictly so. Hmmm, I guess we can live together; more application on the working together.

mistakenly didn’t record Elvis night. from brief online perusals, it sounds like a mess of genre for our Final Four. ah well, that is a big name/draw from this show’s audience <sighs>

would’ve loved a Vegas night including them singing one Elvis and one…. stagestopper song? eh, maybe that doesn’t fit their parameters of generating BIG buzz
