The Hi Points from Hi Point Coffee 11/18/10

Thanksgiving. Can you believe it?? The great thing about that is it's an uninhibited celebration of food and all things delicious. Like the homemade marshmallows I made the other day. Gotta toot my horn on that one, 'cause they are delicious! We're serving the chocolate marshmallows on the peppermint hot chocolate and peppermint mochas. There will be many wonderful treats coming from our kitchen in the lead up to the holidays, so stay tuned. The plan, you ask? An assortment of wonderful candies, caramel sauce and holiday goodies, all to sweeten your holidays.

"UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record" by Leslie Kean
While you may find the UFO of dubious interest, I've already read this one, thanks to my crazy Dad. Thanks, Dad! Anyway, it's UFO stories mainly told by the generals, pilots and officials who have dealt first hand with UFOs, including the story of a fighter pilot in a dog fight with a UFO. Best story of the book. Call me crazy (and I know some of you do already, it's ok), but I found this book to be fascinating. Impressively, this book has positive reviews from Michio Kaku (for the fellow amateur physics geeks out there) and multiple PhD Ivy-league scientists. It's written for folks who do not believe in UFOs, such as me. After reading the book, I can honestly say, I'm a reluctant believer that something unexplained is happening (or at minimum, has happened) and am fascinated by the possibilities. It's a worth a read, even if you don't want to admit to actually reading a UFO book. You can always tell people you're simply doing an anthropological study. ;) Whatever your motivation, read it and come discuss! The date is TBD.
