TURDUCKEN!!

Holy shit! How come I've never heard of this before?

and I quote: "A Turducken is a partially de-boned turkey stuffed with a de-boned duck, which itself is stuffed with a small de-boned chicken." As if that weren't enough they get sausage involved: "The cavity of the chicken and the rest of the gaps are filled with, at the very least, a highly seasoned breadcrumb mixture or sausage meat."

I'm speechless.

It's like the first time you see a rabid unicorn fighting a robotic dolphin.

Just breathtaking.

In which, we find our hero, discovering his inner child...

There are very few things in this world that make me giddy. I usually greet Friday's with ambivalence, ice cream with malaise, and Christmas morning with a shrug. I once fell asleep on a roller coaster.

That's not to say I am a total curmudgeon. The short list of things that make me happy enough to punch a nun goes something like this:

1. Eating - The more the better. I am into decadence.
2. Drinking - ummm, drinking.
3. Seeing my family - If I haven't seen my wife and son in a few days, let's just say, you probably want to keep your distance.
4. Flying on planes - I have been known to be so excited for a plane trip that I will get to the exit in time to watch two or three flights go out before mine.
5. Days off of work - this one pretty much speaks for itself.


In the next 24 hours all five of these things will be happening in spades.


Yay, Thanksgiving!

Just remember, if you feel like there is nothing to be thankful for, you always have one thing: the fact that you live in a country where it is not only normal, but encouraged to spend a random Thursday bumming around in your underwear, being entirely unproductive, engorging yourself with the fattiest foods you can find, watching football and drinking ungodly amounts of alcohol. If that doesn't make you tear up with pride for being an American, well, I might just water-board you myself.

I hope everyone (all 1 of you who read this) has a great holiday, whether with family or not.
