Dear Diary:

Late Breaking News Flash!

    I was remiss in my previous diary entry. There is more Iron Chef goodness than I thought possible, there is also an Iron Chef Italian! Woo HOO!

    Got an e-mail today from Francine a woman who clearly KNOWS her Iron Chef and she told me about all about it.

    She also warned me that sometimes they kill real live stuff like turtles on the show, but she thinks they took those episodes out of rotation in North America.

    Whew! That would just rocket my Gross-o-meter� so far beyond red line you couldn't see the red line from there. (Although I would like to see the episode she mentioned where one of the Iron Chefs gets bitten by a squid. Squid biting is not something you see every day, and I'm thinking there may be a stream of colourful Japanese expletives to be gleaned there.)

    Meanwhile, Battle Mango is the episode Francine recommends for those who want to experience the magic that is Iron Chef Italian. He's pitted against a Mexican chef, and hey, we ALL know what a staple the Mango is in both Italian and Mexican cooking. NOT! I know I'LL be watching my TV listings for it!

    I'll now return you to our regularly scheduled programming. Further bulletins as events progress.

This template is a riff on a design by the truly talented Quinn. Because I'm a html 'tard, I got alot of pity coding to modify it from Ms. Kittay, a woman who can make html roll over, beg, and bring her her slippers. The logo goodness comes from the God of Graphics, the Fuhrer of Fonts, the one, the only El Presidente. I smooch you all. The background image is part of a painting called Higher Calling by Carter Goodrich which graced the cover of the Aug. 3, 1998 issue of The New Yorker Magazine.
