A photo I just took of Military Jets buzzing the space needle and 12th man flag in support of the Seahawks. I'm not exactly excited abouts the sports, but it makes for fun images. - veo

Good news everyone, I'm now a TRILLIONAIRE! Some fool was selling 100 Trillion Zimbabwe Dollars on ebay for $1.00. I snatched it up and never need to worry about money ever again. Muhahaha, now I can set up my evil lair on an isolated Caribbean island!
Wait, what do you mean its only worth 75 cents.. oh.. 74 cents... OH 72 cents... 70 cents? Man, mo' money, mo' problems! - veo
I'm good. I already have a 600,000 lira coin from Turkey (if I remember correctly). Or maybe that was 60,000. It's something weird. I'll have to go look in my album. EDIT: I looked; that was 50,000 lira. Oops. - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)

As sitting foursquare mayor, I'm sad to report that Totem House has closed its doors. Let's all have a moment of silence for fish & chips and overpriced beverages. - http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html...

Holy Hell, CNN sucks. I've been watching for the past 45 minutes for coverage on the DADT repeal and they've had maybe 10 minutes of news, the rest is all commercials. FOX news isn't much better, the two times I flipped over they were showing a gold commercial and having a 9-11 remembrance. Way to be relevant network news!

Making no-bake butterscotch peanut butter oatmeal cookies. The recipe calls for chocolate but I prefer butterscotch.
All done now they just have to set. I think I used too much peanut butter though, they're a little moister then they should be. Hopefully they'll set up OK. Here's my recipe: http://icon.v3o.net/nobake.txt - veo
I think coconut shavings would be a good addition. I guess I'll have to make another match sometime and experiment. - veo

Financial Advice: Say you have $100k you want to put in to a safe, reasonable-yield financial instrument for 12 months. What would choose? Do these even exist? In previous times I'd think CDs, but interest rates are so ridiculous at the moment one might as well stash their money under their mattress.
My 18 year old niece was suddenly informed she's getting an inheritance at the end of the month. She wants me to help her handle the cash, and I just want to stash it somewhere for awhile so it doesn't get spent willy-nilly while we're making a plan. - veo
I can't think of anything for a full year, but an online saving's account will generally be better than most traditional bank's cd. And you can pull the cash out anytime, once you have found even a better temporary home. And unlike you mattress it's fdic insured. - Dario Gomez

Gah. So even though the roads are passable in seattle, the car just happens to be stranded on one of the iciest, steepest, most out of the way, least traveled roads in the city. Temps are supposed to be above freezing tomorrow so MAYBE we'll be able to bus over to it and get it free by thanksgiving evening. :(
Yeah, that's what we get for giving a friend a ride home in the middle of the snow storm. There goes any plans of actually making it to a family thanksgiving - veo

Just received my square point-of-sale card reader and did a test purchase with myself. Holy Crap! This is awesome. Simple, Sleek, Easy. You can itemize purchase items (with a photo per item, if you want), add a tip, send a reciept to the buyer via email. The buyer swipes their card and signs on the screen and you're done. https://squareup.com/
It's 1000x more useful and immediate then paypal while being cheaper too.. 2.75% fee + 15 cents per card swipe vs. Paypal's almost 7% fee. - veo
