Feel a little redundant to say refreshing but, damn it, I'm saying it anyway. Having been away from the 'puter for a day or so and not seeing this til now. Sounds like something that would be absolutely perfect to have throughout Thanskgiving day that won't see you passed out on the couch by the half-time show! :)
