...fact, the scent of weed was redolent among Globe finalists. Robert Downey, Jr., who might have been named for his starring role in Iron Man - except that the HFPA, like the other critics groups, has an unwritten rule outlawing blockbuster action pictures - found a place in Supporting Actor, as the doped-out, blackfaced Method actor in Tropic Thunder (also from the Apatow factory). He was joined in that category by another Thunder actor, Tom Cruise. He does a splendidly sulfurous comic turn as a movie studio exec; but, as the Globe committee hardly needs to be reminded, he's also...

...alcohol gels because they remind me of cheap vodka: A whiff makes me nauseous, and I don't like the burn. If you're not a gel junkie either, Avant's Instant Hand Sanitizer - which rivals Purell's strength, with its 60% ethanol content - might change your mind.

...Brideshead Revisited. They call themselves vegetarians because they drink the blood of animals, not people. They can fly, move with lightning speed, scale trees in a trice.

...Elixir - it'll do just that. Just dab a bit wherever you predict pain and let it dry for 10 minutes; the combination of skin protectants (allantoin and dimethicone) will thwart rubbage for eight hours, and won't stain your socks or stockings. It has a light and fresh scent, almost like suntan lotion, and is perfect for breaking in new shoes - boots, flip-flops and everything in between. If you're a heel hound, Party Shoe Elixir pumps up the protection. Price: $20 for either Elixir...

...find the ugliest rose in the garden and smell it. Though we quickly tired of the game (partially because a guide reminded us that we were smelling the roses’ reproductive parts), Tim did find an orange rose with quite the “tropical” scent...
