Dinner? No, a show.
"For most of her adult life,
Erika Sunnegardh was the epitome of a frustrated performer in New York City. Her artistic vocation was singing, but to make ends meet she endured the usual drudgery - waiting on tables in the Bronx where she lives and working as a tour guide...If Ms Sunnegardh, who is 40, awoke yesterday wondering if she was in the middle of a wonderful dream, who could blame her? On Saturday, the unimaginable had happened: she had sung the starring role in Beethoven's Fidelio at the Metropolitan Opera."

The Wild Farewell
The Harvey Girls (me and
sleepy pete) released our latest record in September. Three of the songs,
Girls Sing,
Practicing, and
Mountain are available for free download.
In addition, the cover art was designed by
interrobang, who also plays out with us during live shows, and lettered by
taz -- friendships and collaborations that likely would never have happened without MeFi.

Cool Keys Radio.
A true labor of electric piano love that will undoubtedly sate the taste of even the most ardent lover of the instrument.

Since my wallet was stolen, I've been trying to get a particular inaccuracy on my credit report corrected with no luck. I have written to the company that owns my report using their own online dispute form and via snail mail. It's been 6 months and I don't know what else to do to get them to respond.

If you've ever wondered how sumotori achieve their
epic bulk, this article from
Gastronomica details the complex preparation and serving rituals of the (
perhaps not) delicious, protein-rich chunky soup that's the staple of their diet (with recipe helpfully included).

Is there a word or concise phrase in any language that means "to walk away from a problem, and return to it later with the solution immediately obvious"?
Also, if there's a word or phrase (again, in any tongue) that means "the unquestionably perfect solution, so right that there can be no better answer," I'd like to know that as well.

A friend in a sociology graduate program has turned to me for advice and I could use yours: she is required to read a book of fiction (a novel or short story collection) per week for a course, and wants recommendations.
