Legally prohibited from being funny on television
The fans of Conan O’Brien will not have to wait much longer — though they may have to wait in long lines — to see their favorite late-night comedian perform again: starting April 12 in Eugene, Ore., and including dates at Radio City Music Hall on June 1 and 2, Mr. O’Brien’s 30-city tour is on. And if the title is any indication, it will also be sending a message about how Mr. O’Brien, above, and his Team Coco feels about his abrupt departure from NBC’s “Tonight Show” in January. The name: The Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour. The title refers to Mr. O’Brien’s settlement with NBC, which included a provision that he cannot appear on television again until after Sept. 1. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/12/arts/television/12arts-CONANOBRIENA_BRF.html

When you attend any networking event, there are a few things to consider:
• What is your goal?
• Will they remember you? Most events have many attendees, so you want to be memorable.
• How will you remember them?
• What do you have to give them? Do you have an old-fashioned business card, brochure or marketing piece?
• Do you have a nametag?
• Do you have “herd mentality”? If you attend with close friends or your critique group, don’t just hang out and talk to them. Spread out! You can see them anytime. This is your chance to interact with others. The Writing Bug March 8, 2010

Thoughts from Lynne
A recipe calls for a few tablespoons of fresh cilantro leaves; you buy a bunch, use a few sprigs, and the rest sits forgotten and getting slimy in the fridge. What to do to avoid tossing most of a bunch? To begin, slow down that decay in the refrigerator by keeping the cilantro as dry and airtight as possible (markets have the nasty habit of spraying produce with water, an ideal set-up for deterioration). As soon as you get the cilantro home, loosen the bunch and spread the branches out on paper towels to absorb any moisture (do not wash oll them up and put into a plastic bag. Press out all the air, seal and refrigerate. You now have close to a week of fresh cilantro to work with. The Splendid Table March 10, 2010

Tips from a Michigan muse reader
1. Peel a banana from the bottom and you won't have to pick the little " stringy things" off of it.
2. Take your bananas apart when you get home from the store. If you leave them connected at the stem, they ripen faster.
3. Peppers with 3 bumps on the bottom are sweeter and better for eating.
4. Peppers with 4 bumps on the bottom are firmer and better for cooking.
5. Add a teaspoon of water when frying ground beef. It will help pull the grease away from the meat while cooking.
6. To really make scrambled eggs or omelets rich add a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream, cream cheese, or heavy cream in and then beat them up.
7. Add garlic immediately to a recipe if you want a light taste of garlic and at the end of the recipe if your want a stronger taste of garlic.
8. Easy Angeled Eggs Put cooked egg yolks in a zip lock bag. Seal, mash till they are all broken up. Add remainder of ingredients, reseal, keep mashing it up mixing thoroughly, cut the tip of the baggy, squeeze mixture into egg.
9. Newspaper weeds away Start putting in your plants, work the nutrients in your soil. Wet newspapers, put layers around the plants overlapping as you go cover with mulch and forget about weeds. Weeds will get through some gardening plastic they will not get through wet newspapers.
10. Broken Glass Use a wet cotton ball or Q-tip to pick up the small shards of glass
you can't see easily.
11. No More Mosquitoes Place a dryer sheet in your pocket. It will keep the mosquitoes away.
12. Squirrel Away! To keep squirrels from eating your plants sprinkle your plants
with cayenne pepper. The cayenne pepper doesn't hurt the plant and the squirrels won't come near it.
13. Flexible vacuum To get something out of a heat register or under the fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings.
14. Reducing Static Cling Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress . Same thing works with slacks that cling when wearing panty hose
15. Measuring Cups Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don't dry cup. Next, add your ingredient, such as peanut butter, and watch how easily it comes right out.
16. Foggy Windshield? Hate foggy windshields? Buy a chalkboard eraser and keep it in the glove box of your car. When the windows fog, rub with the eraser!
17. Reopening envelope If you seal an envelope and then realize you forgot to include something inside, just place your sealed envelope in the freezer for an hour or two.
18. Conditioner Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It's cheaper than
shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth. It's also a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn't like when you tried it in your hair.
19. Goodbye Fruit Flies To get rid of pesky fruit flies, take a small glass fill it 1/2" with apple cider vinegar and 2 drops of dish washing liquid, mix well.
20. Get Rid of Ants Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants.. They eat it, take it "home," can't digest it so it kills them. It may take a week or so, especially if it rains, but it works & you don't have the worry about pets or small children being harmed!
