Also I’ve been thinking of turducken as a more general meal paradigm; say a few birds wrapped in lettuce (the salad) with ice cream or custard (dessert) on the inside. Or turducken soup, where the soup is in the middle. Yum.

Dates is most of what I’m looking for in a calendaring application. It is actually a little bit too minimal: no synchronization for one thing. The “zooming” GUI is nice.
