Tater Tot Day
Today is a good day. Today is Tater Tot day. For years the humble tater tot was considered inferior to the french fry and was mostly seen in tater tot hot dish (or casserole depending on your place of origin) and elementary schools.

Cockatoos and Parrots and Videos- Oh My!
I get a lot of (mostly) good natured grief over some of my entertainment choices. Specifically as of late, folks find it odd/ unusual/ crazy that I have become a fan of watching YouTube videos of birds. Most notably I am a fan of Mr Max TV- a moluccan cockatoo, and Einstein the Talking Texan Parrot- an African grey parrot,… Read more »
