practiced being a strobist with one. Ok, so the lighting set-up is not too elaborate or exciting but hey, I never plan on becoming a food photographer so I do not really care. Anyway, I tried using a monster-lighting technique on the Monster Cookie (get the irony? hehehehe).
Seriously though, I have to finish my paper over the NYT Magazine's photo usage for Steve Raymer's class and I need to practice some lighting techniques for an upcoming photoshoot of the Collin's Assassin's Guild. Hopefully all works out well... I am going to try to go for a wrap-around lighting look kind of similar to what is seen here:

I doubt I will get the same effect since I will only be using two canon flashes and the sun as my three lights but we shall see! I will post the results from my practice shoot as soon as I can.
Update:
Here are my efforts in my valiant attempt to create a cool, side-lit portrait earlier this evening--I am open to suggestions please!
Hehehehe... we ended up getting a "Magnum" pose courtesy of Derek Zoolander--did not turn out bad at all--haha!
