"Thanksgiving Sushi"

"Thanksgiving Sushi"

We made sushi for dinner tonight and threw some Thanksgiving leftovers (turkey and cranberry sauce) into a roll. It was okay, but not fantastic. I found that a little bit of soy sauce boosted the savory flavors and made it more palatable.

My parents recently adopted a dog from the local animal shelter. We went over today for a "dog inspection". She's very soft and sweet.

Meteorite caught on tape

Thursday night, a meteorite fell in Western Canada, burning up as hit the Earth’s atmosphere and creating a brilliant flash over Alberta and Saskatchewan. Witnesses got to experience the brightest fireball the country has seen in over a decade. Fortunately for us non-Canadians, several video cameras captured the meteorite’s luminous fall.

The video below shows the fall as captured by a police dashboard camera in Edmonton, Alberta. The next step is for astronomers to search the region for the meteorite fragments, which are billions of years old and valuable for study.

Now you should make something too.

Voting (at the risk of angering just about everyone)

It's election day morning. And I would suggest that if, at this late hour, you still have not decided who you want to vote for, that maybe it's because you really don't care about who our next President is.

And if you don't care...
If neither candidate has impressed you enough to think, "I'd like that person to be President."
If it's no more important to you than choosing between two pairs of sneakers while shopping for shoes.

Then maybe you just shouldn't fucking vote.

Okay?
