Hannibal Can Cook.

Hannibal, TV

Mads Mikkelsen was a good choice for Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

We crack up every time we see who got invited to dinner. And, those cooking scenes…art!

Here’s the gist:
“Will Graham (Hugh Dancy, “The Big C”) is a gifted criminal profiler who is on the hunt for a serial killer with the FBI. Graham’s unique way of thinking gives him the astonishing ability to empathize with anyone – even psychopaths. He seems to know what makes them tick. But when the mind of the twisted killer he’s pursuing is too complicated for even Will to comprehend, he enlists the help of Dr. Lecter, one of the premier psychiatric minds in the country. Armed with the uncanny expertise of the brilliant doctor, Will and Hannibal (known as a serial killer only to the audience) form a brilliant partnership and it seems there’s no villain they can’t catch. If Will only knew…”

The Boys of My Youth, by Jo Ann Beard
“The author writes with perfect pitch as she takes us through one woman’s life – from childhood to marriage & beyond – & memorably captures the collision of youthful longing & the hard intransigences of time & fate.”

LOL Much?

LOL

How do you feel about messages containing abbreviations/”Internet Slang” and emoticons?

Do you only type “LOL” when you’ve actually laughed out loud? Is it more of an automatic response to something you think funny?

Do you avoid using LOL and smilie faces all together? If so, why?
