Short Updates
Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving.
Back from Thanksgiving Mass and a family brunch at Cafe on the Oval. An additional bonus: As a 'thank you' for this morning's DVD order, Amazon gave me a $5 credit towards their video on demand service.

Excerpt: In a world torn apart by persecution, war and oppression, 3 children in Fatima, Portugal were chosen by God to offer an urgent message of hope to the world. Based on the memoirs of the oldest seer, Lucia Santos, and many thousands of independent eye-witness accounts, The 13th Day dramatizes the true...
Eat less meat 'to reduce climate change and save thousands of lives'
Comment: What a time (Thanksgiving) to tell folks to eat less meat. ;-P I plan not only on eating meat, but using carbon based energy to cook it.
Excerpt: People should eat less meat to reduce climate change and save thousands of lives a year, a Government-funded report has said.
