Heroes -
Lots of stuff is happening on the Fastest Show on TV - it puts Lost to shame with how much they get accomplished in one episode. I was scribbling furiously and pissing off my wife, who just wanted to see what would happen next and didn’t care that I needed to write everything down. By the way, the show goes on hiatus until April 23rd, so watch this one over and over.
HRG’s got a blank mind, and tells his boss so, but before he had his own mind wiped by the Haitian, he told his wife everything. She gives him a note he wrote himself not to go after Claire as he sent her away for her own safety. Isaac killed Simone and tries to shoot Peter again, who flees. The Haitian and Claire are told to leave the country. The FBI, investigating Linderman, have recruited Nathan as their undercover agent and want him to meet Linderman and get incriminating evidence. Sylar has the list but Mohinder is onto him and poisons his tea, knocking him out. Mohinder (painfully) extracts Sylar’s DNA to test it but then does the one thing you’re not supposed to do - he lets the bad guy live just a little longer. Mohinder also makes some kind of breakthrough by studying Sylar’s DNA. Claire wants to find Peter, the only person she trusts, but the Haitian says no, so Claire gives him the slip at airport security.byer 1 2 3 4|
6. BLUE BAND: local Jazz band or margarine?
7. KREST: toothpaste or soda pop?
8. BOP: boxing gloves or insecticide?
I love the beachy hair look - there is something about the salt water that makes all hair look incredible. What if you can’t get to a beach? Well try two of my favorite summer hair products. Kusco Murphy Beach Hair is a thick paste that incorporates crushed bamboo and coconut oil to replicate a day at the beach. Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray is a salt infused spray with seaweed extract that will give you that soft wavy look with light hold. Both will give you sexy beach hair.
Stay Pretty!!
9. IMPERIAL LEATHER: saddle polish or bar soap?
10. NEW VISION: contact lens solution or local newspaper?
11. PURITY: toilet paper or jarred baby food?
The first few weeks here were trying to figure out what may be in some of the containers with these strange and unusual names. Sometimes the answer is obvious and sometimes we are left baffled. Few things make me feel more like a foreigner than going to the supermarket. I’m beginning to get the hang of it now and could even tell you not to eat the JIK…because it’s bleach. By the way, the second item listed is always the correct answer.

Muddling Through Stage 2
Numerous books and articles have been published on culture shock. Studies have been done on the effects of moving far from home to make a home on foreign shores. I thought that by reading up on it I could “outrun” culture shock. I could not have been more naive.
