Achewood v. molecular gastronomy. Saw this linked on a foodie site somewhere while I was blog-chasing over the weekend. It will blow many of my few remaining hip & cool points, I know, but I'm not actually much of an Achewood fan. Still, this cracked me up.

Sad news from Bawlmer: the American Dime Museum is closing. They're having an auction at the end of the month. Out of my price range, but I'd definitely go if I were gonna be there. Which alas I will not. Actually I'll be there this weekend, or at least within easy driving distance. Altho I got to see the small displays they brought to Artscape, we never did make it to the actual museum. And now it's gone. That, I guess, is what you get for thinking you can always do something the next time you're in town. Anyway. Here's an old post from Teller in which he talks about going to the museum.
