    So far I’m only using Daniel Treadwell’s Google+ plugin, as I already have some Twitter and Facebook plugins working. If those are no longer working in the future, I can switch over. Social Media 2 WordPress for Google allows you to continuously import posts (including photos, albums, videos and links) from Google to your blog.

    Giving Thanks

    We brought 2 pies to the family Thanksgiving gathering; we mingled, caught up with family members, got a new recipe (actually more of an ingredient list) and listened to all the chatter. It’s always a good time lying in wait for cousin Randy’s trays of cream cheese and onion stuffed mushrooms. I could eat a whole tray of those things, they’re legendary. However, the ingredient list I snagged was for a tasty grain salad made with farro and unbrined Italian olives. So yummy. The after-dinner conversational topics covered the usual ground; how lucky we all are, how busy we all…

    The Courage of Andrea Constand

    I believe her. New detail: apparently mega-agency William Morris was involved in sending a payment to an unnamed victim. I wonder how long until former Cosby physicians come forward? Many of the stories mention the use of pills. The Former Basketball Player Who Brought Down Bill Cosby Without Andrea Constand, none of this happens. Bill Cosby is still America’s No. 1 dad, still beloved for giving us the Huxtables and Fat Albert, still embraced in too many corners of the country for telling young black men to pull up their pants, still selling out arena after arena.

    Lamb Chop Launch Successful!

    Lamb Chop Launch Successful! Watch these humans launch a lamb chop to space because why not Why send this tandoori lamb chop to space when it can be in my belly? I don’t know, but Nikesh Shukla and Nick Hearne thought it was a good idea to put it in a weather balloon and film its flight to the stars—or at least 25,000 kilometers up there. I can imagine ISS astronauts looking at this video and weeping. View this post on Google+

    The People Who Make Travel Possible and Somewhat Less Unpleasant

    I never knew this about airport service workers; I had naively assumed that the people who clean aircraft and airport bathrooms were better paid, possibly with collective bargaining and a union to protect their rights. Not so; many of them are employees of companies who contract to do the service work at the lowest possible wages. Remember, if you or a family member use the common "wheelchair service" at your airport this weekend, please tip the person who pushes the chair. They're working for peanuts. The Secret Life of the American Airport Worker I’ve spent the last six months investigating…
