Cats on the patio

I think they're liking the sun...

Juliet.

Mallory (named after Mallory from Natural Born Killers -- yeah, she's that mean).

Crapness

I busted off a sideview mirror on my car this morning pulling out of my garage. I hope my day improves.

If it's not one thing, it's another.

People on the 'tubes

No matter whatever happens, or whatever is said on blogs, it's always important to remember that there is a real person with real family and real friends behind everyone of these websites.

Please keep my friend Sara from F-Words in your thoughts and prayers.

Oy vey...

For x = (1,1), and y = (4,5), |x – y| = √([1–4]² + [1–5]²) = 5

Whereas x ~ Father, y ~ Mother and 5 = Hooray!.

Glad we got that problem solved.

Post-Thanksgiving Tidbits

Well, another dual family Thanksgiving in the books and now we're on to Christmas season, my wife is insisting that the Christmas decorations/tree all go up today. Fun.. fun.

• My day today is largely going to be takin' up by making turkey stock, I managed to swipe the carcass from both of our families Thanksgivings, so today I've got a good 8 hours of making stock. You didn't throw your turkey carcass away did you? If you need directions, here are some courtesy of Michael Ruhlman.

• Updated: here are some tips from Jaden's Steamy Kitchen on how to snag that turkey carcass for the next time you sit down to a turkey dinner; say, Christmas.

• There are a lot of stupid people in the Treasure Valley, in fact, about 30,000 of them.

• Idaho Statesman has a list of wine related events going on this weekend. We're heading out to Indian Creek Winery this Sunday for a barrel tasting of their newly squeezed '07 Pinot Noir.

• This is apparently what passes for law enforcement to our neighbors to the south of us. Looks like that attitude is starting to seep into Eastern Idaho.

• Go Broncos!

Cats

I love all 5 of mine, and they are all humorous in their own little ways -- but Sgt. Podge made me chuckle.
