If you haven't yet seen "Toy Story 3," go see it. Right now. It's that good.

Somehow, Pixar keeps surpassing the standard is sets with each film. I don't know how they do it.

Not So Humble Pie keeps publishing candy recipes that look so good, and are so entertainingly written, that I have to make them. I don't eat them; I just make them. One of the tenets by which I run my life is, "If it ain't chocolate, it ain't candy."

Other such tenets, which are widely, although not universally, reliable, are: "Anything called Red Rock Canyon is worth visiting," and, "Tom Cruise does not make good movies."
