    @Annalee: So you (and others) can salvage something worthwhile from this clearly less than appetizing experience, may I present to you, a picture of a TAHITIAN TARO BURGER [Sorry, I couldn't find one of Tahitian Pancakes :( ].

    (Hereafter to be known, until the end of time, as the "WTF LOVEMUNCHER" TM.)

    It's principal component is made from the Taro root, as are Tahitian Pancakes.
    The best pancakes are made from a mix of Taro flour and wheat flour (many prefer a 60:40 ratio).
    The texture is delightful and the flavour is slightly 'nutty' (a slice of Jarlsberg or Leerdammer cheese compliments it beautifully).

    You should be able to purchase Taro flour in a natural food store or in SF's Chinatown, as it's used in dim-sum dumplings [or try Taro-chips, for Jarlsberg dips and fondue].

    Me ke aloha, SJ_Edwards. #heroes

    Stopped watching at the beginning of Season 2 because they brought back both Sylar and Peter Petrelli immediately after killing them off.

    Fucking stupid.

    Parkman with a backbone is as believable as his likely death at the end of the episode, ie, not. #heroes

    In reply to Dear Heroes: I Want My Lesbians Back
    Ok , here's Dr Emilio Lizardo's thoughts on the latest "Heroes" (TM). And remember kids, Dr Emilio Lizardo doesn't just play a doc here on io9, he is a bitter, tortured, doctor hoping to make his life fortune before the insurance companies steal it away from him in real life too.

    Overall, this was one of the better episodes of the last few years, (not saying much) but Annalee's criticisms are (mostly) right on the mark.

    Somebody should kill Emma and Peter stat. They really get on my fucking nerves. That god damned tension pneumo? how the hell does some little girl end up on the floor of a store room? Couldn't you at least use a sthethescope and look at the girl's neck to see if the trachea is deviated before you come at her with a sharp needle? And could you please stick the needle in her lung instead of her liver to fix the problem? And, one last request, could you get out air from a pneumothorax instead of blood? Please?

    Of course Sylar and Parkman aren't dead. Nobody ever dies on heroes. Nobody. Ever. Even when Nathan famously dies later this year, he will come back like a bad Marvel retcon.

    The lesbian subplot has been wrapped up way too quick. Not because I'm into cute lesbians (although I am) but because it was a chance to develop Claire beyond the whole love/hate thing with HRG and the writers pissed it away.

    Samuel needs a new Schtick. It was moderately interesting at first, but it's time to do something with it or admit ou got nuthin' (as usual) and wrap it up.

    I liked the Sylar/Parkman thing. Parkman tried to get bad ass, then Sylar showed him he was in over his head, then Parkman showed him he can get wild too. I was OK with that.

    Annalee's recaps remain better than the show. #heroes

    In reply to Dear Heroes: I Want My Lesbians Back
    It says something about a character's arc and development when the best, most heroic thing he can do is get himself shot by police, but that's Parkman for you.

    Of course, according to the preview of next week's episode, Parkman can't even kill himself right. Not that I'm surprised: for a moment it seemed that someone would achieve some form of lasting victory over Sylar, and we just can't have that, apparently, not even a pyrrhic victory that destroys an imaginary incarnation of him.

    And it seems like Samuel is starting to adopt the oratory skills of 90s-era Claremont Magneto...if you blather on about meaningless bullshit about 'us and them' and 'belonging' to enough folks, people will just start following you.

    I'm going to try this and start going around to pancake houses and going on and on about how no one can understand pancakes like I can. My goal is to get free pancakes. If this works, I'll start trying it on women; I can't wait to start using the line 'No one understands you. Would you like to come live in my circus?' #heroes
