Another brief factoid posting.
Ismail Merchant dead at 68.
"Merchant died surrounded by family and friends at a hospital in London, Merchant Ivory Productions said."
"Their hits — especially E.M. Forster adaptations like "A Room With a View" and "Howards End" — helped revive the public's taste for well-made, emotionally literate period drama."

I have a serious case of Whatchagot Stew simmering in the crock pot. Beef tips, an Italian sausage, kernel corn, baby corn, a tin of black bean soup, a dried pea soup pouch, half an onion, a little soy sauce, a little ground black pepper... Um. There's probably one or two other things in there. I was going to throw in more spices--rosemary, basil, oregano, and the like--but I was nervous of messing with it further.

SanDisk digital audio player 23685/SDMX1-256
256MB of storage, plays 8 hours of .wma or over four hours of .mp3 and on sale at Sears this weekend for $80.
It also has an FM tuner so I could watch episodes of the X-Files while at the gym.
I am strongly tempted to budget this.
