thanksgiving

happy thanksgiving everyone:

i hope yours was as good as mine, last night (friday) we cooked two turkeys, mashed potatoes, spinach, sweet potatoes, apple, peach, and strawberry pie. all homemade save the strawberry. The English and a Scottish decided that we should have a thanksgiving together. It was a multinational celebration. American, English, Scottish, Italian, German, Chilean, Mexican, Spanish, Turkish, French; all celebrated thanksgiving. I think the turkish were a bit fed up with hearing turkey over and over. 'Imagine if there was a food called france or united states eh?' Also, it snowed yesterday morning on the way to class and all day, so it was pretty amazing. We had a massive snowball fight, one that lasted all the way to the bar. I am really looking forward to being home for christmas. Here's some links to check out. Apparently Dave Schools of Widespread Panic made a theme song for Cane's check it Also Trey Anastasio of Phish has a new album out and has been doing several interviews, acknowledging reasong why phish broke up and playing acoustically.npr story

Would you like something to cheer you up? explodingdog Still not satisfied? There was a fight in the senate last week? Not really a fight, but man, they were sure yelling.

hello everyone. We went to Paris last week with my friend xavier and stayed at his house. his parents were real cool and cooked us the dank french meals. here are some pictures. we went to the eiffel tower in the morning and then went to the graveyard where jim morrison, oscar wilde, marcel proust, balzac, georges seurat and others are buried. the next day we went to the museee d'orsay. it was awesome.
