Things I learned this week:


1] The answer to all words in the crossword puzzle are either “piss,” “shit,” or “piss shit.” Or rather those are all the answers if you are the woman I sat watching yesterday. As she sat in Union Station’s Au Bon Pain, chewing a pencil, she would shout one of the three as if each time it was revelation, & furiously write her answers in the Express crossowrd.

2] The fusion trend in culinary experiments has led to very bad things. Like my coworker putting chili and cheese on her sushi.

3] My biggest hope for the spring is that American Idol will have a night devoted to The Music of Heart.
