Perhaps the best part of T-Day leftovers are the excellent smoked turkey sandwiches which will occupy my lunch pail on Monday. Smoky turkey, commercial cranberry glop, and a little mayo. With a few Utz Ripple chips. Man, oh man.
Almost enough to make me look forward to going back to work. [...]

The turkey is in the smoker; an 11 pound specimen1 buttered, seasoned, and lightly stuffed with citrus, apple, and onion.2 The fowl is over a water pan, to which some wine and additional seasonings have been added. And the hickory chips and chunks are now working their magic.

Over the last few days, I’ve read a lot of oohs and ahhs about the Amazon Kindle e-book reader. The usual shiny new gadget crowd is blogging up a storm about the device. I have a narrowly defined interest in e-book readers, and I’ll bat out a post about what I’m looking for later [...]

Wis. Man Upset Over Beer Shoots Goat
A man who was upset with his wife for not buying beer took vengeance by shooting one of the family’s two pet goats, prosecutors say.

Home from work, earlier than normal, but it still wasn’t like getting cut loose at 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Sipping a cold one, and soaking the hickory chunks for the turkey smoking extravaganza tomorrow. My little bride has cleaned the smoker, and lined the fire pan and water pan with foil. [...]

To all who take to the roads (or heaven forbid, the skies) today, please travel safely. I’m doing my part, I’m only going to work and back, and plan to spend the holiday ensconced here at tbbs WorldHQ. In that fashion, there will be one less vehicle adding to the congestion.
Happy Thanksgiving!

The ever-vigilant ones at the Transportation Security Administration have prepared a video which instructs holiday travelers on how to pack their carry-ons to expedite the screening process.
