Blue Nile and random tidbit
I just found out Blue Nile on Telegraph is closed. I've only been there once, but it was a good memory. So, it's kind of sad that it's gone now. Also Cat and I were JUST talking about it on Saturday.
Ahh the good old days..

Also, I found out today that if you have a hole in your radiator, you can crack an egg into it and it will temporarily plug up the hole. This was apparently proven to work on mythbusters. (Which, by the way, is a pretty cool show on the Discovery channel. They take some common myths and test them to see if it's true or not. Like.. whether the gun will blow up in the attacker's face if you plug your finger into it :p)
In case you're wondering how that subject came up, my prof had some car trouble (radiator crack) over the weekend (he had to stop on the bridge!), and one of my classmates mentioned that cure.
Speaking of which though.. makes me wonder.. who would carry around a raw egg anyway? "Oh, I think I'll go driving around now.. better take an egg along in case there's a hole in my radiator!" And if you can stop to get an egg, you can wait for a tow truck to get your car. In general, not a very useful solution, though I guess if you were grocery shopping and you happened to have eggs in your car, that would work.
