  1. Mississippi Thanksgiving Traditions Thanksgiving week is the traditional time for the opening of deer season and the Ole Miss vs Mississippi State grudge match. The footbrawl game usually means very little to the national standings but between these two teams, the rivalry is intense. A coach can lose all his games and win the rivalry game and survive. Our food might vary from the traditional Thanksgiving fare. Many times the turkey is fired and beef or shrimp or beef & shrimp become the main course. If you want to try some of our favorite Thanksgiving sides: Shrimp & Wild Rice casserole http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/shrimp-and-wild-rice-casserole-recipe/index.html Classic Pecan Pie http://karosyrup.com/recipe_details.asp?id=485 Pecan Pralines http://allrecipes.com/recipe/yummy-pecan-pralines/

  3. The last scene that I wrote in Case: Black (38) had me pacing back and forth- the whole thing was so creepy. 11 years ago there was an accident at a secure lab that caused a localized outbreak of a deadly disease. The lab was supposed to be state of the art and had every safety feature but something went wrong. They could never figure out what happened and 8 years later they needed the data that was still down there. After the lab had been pumped full of chlorine dioxide and sealed with 22 bodies in it. My character had to go down in this lab, crawl over bodies to retrieve the data and try to figure out what went wrong. It was tense just creating it.

    Biphobia

    As long as you aren't 100% heterosexual, your sexuality may cause you some controversy. The reason is that so few people in our culture are truly comfortable with their own spot on Kinsey's scale. There are a whole lot of people that spend a great deal of time punishing themselves and everybody else for that time a seventh grade or college or seventh grade through college when they were bi/gay sluts and humped everybody that stood still long enough. You don't have to go far to meet people like that. I know two that played more skin flute than band in high school and are now Evangelical fuck-wads.

    White Sands Missile Range, NM Department of Homeland Security Section 39- Secure Biohazard Lab July 17, 2016 0150MST/0250CST It took some time to prepare for their expedition to the abandoned and sealed lab-3 and, Raymond James nor any of his men harbored any desire to go. For stakes like so many people were facing that day, a whole lot of people were operating well outside their comfort zone. There were still more questions than answers about “the incident”. Section 39 was built in the
  9. Anything that is sexually suggestive and involves the male form is automatically controversial. As opposed to scantly clad barely legal girls who are definitely not controversial. Now do you understand? If you do, you can explain it to me.
  10. The scene I'm writing now is so tense I'm wanting to chain smoke, get up and pace around and chew my nails all at once. I hope it's a good sign that it's a winning scene. Not a bad sign that I'm in need a the laughing academy. Now that you mention it, just might be a little of both.

    Southaven, MS 4th Mechanized Infantry Brigade Headquarters July 17, 2016 0200CST Bill Sherman took the Goodman Road exit when he got to Southaven. It was very different from the last time that he had been there. Every business on the normally bustling street was closed and dark- even the businesses that were usually open 24/7. Sherman gave a mournful sideways glance as they passed a darkened Steak and Shake and Long Horn Steak House. In the passenger side, Johnny Two-Eagles looked up and

  15. Foul language in writing is a lot like garlic in cooking: used in moderation and appropriately, it contributes emphasis and flavor. Over-used, it's overpowering.

    White Sands Missile Range, NM Department of Homeland Security Section 39- Secure Biohazard Lab July 17, 2016 0000MST / 0200CST Ray James looked at his boss incredulously. “You need what?” Sal Martino said, “We need the hard drives from secure lab-3.” James said, “That’s what I thought you said. Do you have any idea what we went through to seal that area off? The whole thing is contaminated.” Martino looked at the blue prints and said, “The orders come from the Director. There might b

    Denver FEMA Headquarters July 16/17, 2017 2315MST / 0115 CST “Agent McGrath, wake up sir!” McGrath was sleeping in an empty conference room. He wasn’t sure exactly where he was or who the intense young man in a rumpled suit was trying to wake him. He sat up and mumbled, “What’s up?” “Sir, I’ve got orders to get you on a plane.” McGrath shook his head like a dog shaking off water, stood up and asked, “Where too?” “Above my pay grade sir but they said get you there ASAP.” He picked up

    I was wondering if anyone would notice that. It came from their own website.

    NSA Data Facility Camp Williams Military Reservation, Utah July 16/17, 2017 2250MST / 0050 CST Jason Lee sat bolt upright in his chair. The intercept that he was listening to was flagged by the system earlier in the day. The computer flagged the encrypted cell phone call originating in Islamabad, Pakistan to a senior Lieutenant of the Sanchez Cartel in Mexico City and put it in the queue for decryption. That was not an overly difficult task for a Cray XC30 super computer.
