My partner and I are getting married in April. We wanted a small ceremony, so when the property manager of the house we're renting for the event said we couldn't have more than 20 people, we were cool with that. We're having a reception a month later in our hometown, so that we'll be able to celebrate with a larger

I now know what the term "Kwazy Kupcake" really stands for.

His situation really calls for a James Bond or Ethan Hunt or Jason Bourne to do what needs to be done without concern for the niceties of the law—someone we (or the people of Norway) pay to do our (their) dirty work without knowledge of exactly how the sausage gets made.

Leibovitz doesn't do her own photo editing? Is that how things work?

Because in the wild, dogs ate only out of sterile containers.

It doesn't look like X or Y, so it must be a combination of X and Y? Can't it just be Z?

And I think they forgot Ezra Miller and Ben Whishaw:

Best film I've seen so far this year. Amazing acting throughout. Probably the best film performances so far from Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Leto, and maybe even Griffin Dunne (I'm not sure I've seen enough of his work to say).

After seeing Dallas Buyer's Club, I gotta go with Jared Leto. He's beautiful as a man or a woman.

Apparently they built the similar one used in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol just for the film.

If accurate, this makes me sad: "But the Q50's biggest problem is that unfortunately, it's just not that much fun to drive." The G35 is a BLAST to drive. Where I live, Infiniti, Porsche, Audi, Mercedes, BMW, Jaguar, and Range Rover were all sold by the same dealer. I tried the G35 on a lark and was blown away. That

Isn't iTunes the only Windows music player that streams to Apple TV?

On principle, I do not read Brooks—until I have to because his NYT piece is the launchpad for other writing, like this.

If you use this method, you really owe it to the retailer and other customers to treat the items with great care, maintaining the packaging and so forth.

Costco, Apple, Best Buy, and Amazon all facilitate this model.

Reminds me of the monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

My partner's aunt got her a DUI a couple years ago after bumping into a cop car at a gas station. She's 78 and loves to party, so it's kind of surprising it was her first.
