I have a suggestion for a little bit of low-priced luxury to enjoy in your very own home! I had the best little open-faced sandwich today. A toasted piece of pumpernickel with some cream cheese, a few slices of smoked salmon and some chopped red onion. It just needed a little squeeze of fresh lemon, which I didn�t have. It was so delicious. I actually said out loud three times, �that was SO good.� I�ve always loved smoked salmon but I�ve never bought it to bring home. I highly recommend it. Get some!

Wasn�t Amelia Earhart chic? I think I need one of those flight helmets and goggles. It�s such a good look. Did you know she bought her first plane only six months after she started flying lessons? She was such a punker. And she was associate editor for Cosmo. They probably didn�t have the sex quizzes in 1928.

"After midnight the moon set and I was alone with the stars. I have often said that the lure of flying is the lure of beauty, and I need no other flight to convince me that the reason flyers fly, whether they know it or not, is the aesthetic appeal of flying." -Amelia Earhart I like this dominatrix head thing too from Ghost World. I liked the movie, based on Daniel Clowes� comic of the same name. If you get a chance, check out both the movie and the comic. Daniel Clowes has a knack for bringing out the grotesque in normal people. There�s this scene in the movie that�s not in the comic (but Daniel Clowes worked closely with the director so I think it�s ok) where Steve Buscemi�s character has a date with this blonde real estate agent and she turns on the radio. �Solid as a Rock� comes on and she says in her toothy toothy way, �I LOVE this song! Let�s dance!!!� It�s the most embarrassing thing in the world. Steve Buscemi�s character is completely horrified by it, being the quirky, nerdy, snaggle-toothed, old record collecting milk-livered intellectual that he is. It rocks.
