If you are looking for some reading wikipedia does have a great article on the history of Thanksgiving.

Vacation

Today is the first day of my week long vacation. I will be catching up on my DVR, Playing with Vista and reading Hardening Network Security for MoreNets Security Symposium until Wednesday. Than its all turkey and tryptophan until Monday!

If you have anything to do that would help me procrastinate please let me know, I'd be glad to give you a hand.

MU vs. Davidson and BestBuy

Eric and I went to the MU game and sat next to Mike Alden and his wife Rockie. It was a great competitive game and it was nice to see MU pull out the win. They are now 6-0 for the first time in about 4 years. MU's next game is the 25th vs Stephen F. Austin, is anyone interested in going?

After the game Eric and I went to BestBuy to try to pickup a WII but they were all sold out. Then I made the mistake about asking which EMachine is going on sale on Friday because I read about it on the internet.At this point we must have triggered some kind of alarm because we had walked over to another section of the store and the manager came over and asked our names and that he heard we "asked about the Emachine". So Eric bought his sister a birthday present and we left looking over our shoulder as we pulled out of the parking lot.

MU vs. Lipscomb

Tonight Missy, Eric and I went to Mizzou arena to watch the mens basketball team take on Lipscomb. It was a pretty interesting game that turned into a blow out in the end. The one highlight of the night was that we ended up sitting directly behind Mike Alden and his wife Rockie who is going to try to get me some tickets for the Davidson game.

Here is a picture (of poor quality) that shows the game from nine rows back.

Mouse Game

Ever felt like flying a remote control missile down a huge tunnel?

Use your mouse to pilot the missile through the tubes. Fly through the holes in the obstacles to survive and reach the end of each level. The position of the mouse is the position of the missile within the tube. Get through as many levels as possible.

Deer Hunting

I don't personally deer hunt but my friend Eric does and apparently he is pretty good at it. Yesterday was the first day of deer season and he already got his two deer. I have a picture of his dead deer here. I still don't think that is a manufacture approved use of that skid loader, but those farmers are pretty inventive.

Brain Game

Here is a new Brain Game.

The in game instructions are not very good but the object is to place the blue dot in one square and then move it horizontally or vertically in the grid trying to cover all the open spaces.

Sod and Trees

The landscapers worked really hard on Friday and got all of the sod and tress put in. Now our yard looks really awesome. We have some pictures here.

They only have 3 or 4 more little things to do on Monday and then the yard will be completely done.
