If you do get that book, may I most heartily recommend the corn-stuffed tomatoes. That's probably my favorite recipe from the whole book. Also, in general, I love cooking, and I'm pretty darn good at vegetables, if I do say so myself. (Lots of friends who are either vegetarian, have food allergies, or both.) We could talk recipes, if you like.
T really wants to be all suave and cool and tragically hip. But he's only made it as far as Major Douchebag.
Back when I did my recap/review of The Great Game, I think I noted that, in that instance, Showing The Monster turned out to be not such a great idea, because the planetarium scene became significantly less scary once you saw that Sherlock was being attacked by either Lurch or Ruk from the Star Trek episode "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" But, honestly, the concept of a seven-foot-tall latter-day Ted Cassidy professional assassin fascinates me. He's so damn noticeable and memorable, two qualities that one would not ordinarily associate with the idea of "professional assassin." I kind of want to write about him just to see what could be done. Let's see. I'm (please, please) about a chapter away from finishing the current story, then there's the Improbable Crossover, and then maybe I can get to writing about Lurch The Assassin.
