really enjoyed the magnus nilsson episode of the chef's table docu-series on netflix. he runs faviken in the middle of nowhere sweden. dishes on the menu include warm marrowbone which is extracted from a cow's shinbone using a two-man saw in the middle of the dining room itself.
also good was the first one, on massimo bottura.
wow. just flicked on an nba playoff game for the last 20 seconds. final score 120 - 66. thats like a blow out high school game. third largest playoff point differential.
i made the unfortunate error of being kind today. someones mail has been forwarded to my box for the last couple of days and i was able to track them down via google and twitter. now im sitting around waiting for a text and then ill have to deal with talking to someone for upwards to two minutes. that she is an attractive brasilian born actress only makes it more of an inconvenience. thankfully her imdb page only has one notable listing and that was as eye candy for a scene in an iron man movie. but really the worst part is that her spelling is atrocious which i guess can be forgiven considering her backround but misspelling instagram in your twitter header is just flat out negligent.

so experiencing some sort of aura at the moment. not nearly as vivid as the picture but im glad i was able to quickly identify it. it has mostly dissipated now but was a little discomfiting for about 15 minutes.

post mortems for the elmore leonard-adapted series justified which ended pretty satisfyingly last night. and a considered look at netflixs first marvel property, daredevil, which has outstripped the other marvel properties currently cluttering up the televisual landscape.
i just saw that the first four episodes of this seasons game of thrones leaked (four episodes were sent out to reviewers) although as far as i can see they are in standard def. can i resist? has anyone in the history of time faced a more fraught dilemma?
