A few posts ago I stated that I didn’t much care for Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. This is no longer true. I’ve also just heard that there are rumours that it will be cancelled. This would be a bad thing. We’ve watched it every week now (upon recommendation of friends, coworkers, and loved ones), and it’s good. You should watch it. The show is very well written, has characters with depth and real personality who you can actually care about, and is just a high-quality bit of television.
Watch it. Love it. Blog about it and tell all your friends to watch it. It’s too good to be so unceremoniously cancelled before it really starts. Ok. Go set your PVRs and Tivos. I’ll wait here.

Rob’s still in Toronto, so I was cooking just for me tonight. The grocer had tilapia fish on special, so I picked up a single filet ($1.60) and had it with a spinach salad topped with balsamic-lemon vinaigrette.
Tilapia
Very simple: rub some olive oil on the filet, season with fresh ground salt and pepper, pan fry on medium-high heat for 3-4 mins per side.
Spinach salad
Also simple: Good handful of baby spinach, half a dozen grape tomatos, handful of croutons, a few chunks of feta, and a hard boiled egg cut in half (salt + pepper on the egg to taste).
Balsamic-lemon vinaigrette
2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp good balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tbsp lemon juice, and some fresh ground pepper all into an old salsa jar, then shake well + pour over salad.
Ta dah. It was absolutely delicious. I didn’t bother with lemon on the fish, just drizzling a bit of the vinaigrette over it instead. Yum.

It’s Thanksgiving weekend in Canada, so I’ll be afk (more or less) on Monday. I’ll be afk again Oct 12-16 (Thu-Mon) for a mini-vacation, and will be largely offline but accessible by mobile for emergencies.

Eric Shepherd (aka “sheppy”) has been part of Mozilla for half a year now. In the past six months he’s not only dug in and written some vital and high-quality documentation, he’s also integrated himself well into the developer community as a whole. His skill and experience are such that we’re expanding his responsibilities to encompass all things related to Mozilla developer documentation as our new Developer Documentation Lead.
So from here on in, if you have questions about the MDC documentation or wikis, Eric’s the person you should talk to first and he’ll be the guy making final decisions on related issues. Congratulations Eric, and thanks :)
