Be thankful, not hateful
I am really sick and tired of all the anti-Thankgivings sentiments floating around. People go on and on about how Christopher Columbus invaded the Americas and how Thanksgiving is just a day to celebrate the genocide of the Native Americans.
First off, and listen closely here, Thanksgiving has nothing to do with Christopher Columbus. Columbus did not have Pilgrims with him, but rather he had other sailors and explorers. He was Portugese (though some will tell you he was Italian) and sailed for Spain. When he "discovered" America, he was in the Bahamas, and then explored Cuba and Haiti.
The Pilgrims sailed in 1620, 128 years after Columbus, and landed at Plymouth Rock. Some were from the Netherlands and some were from England. The Pilgrims met the Wampanoag people, Native Americans living in what is now known as New England. The Wampanoag were essential to the Pilgrims survival the first winter, and not because the Pilgrims took advantage of them. It is this coming together that we celebrate. Some misinterpret Thanksgiving as a religious holiday because the Pilgrims were Christian people seeking religious freedom, but since this is a celebration of a coming together of diverse groups and the Wampanoag weren't Christian, I don't believe it is a religious holiday.
In fact, back when The United States was first becomming a country, Thomas Jefferson said that Christmas and Easter should not be national holidays because, First Ammendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...". Since both Christmas and Easter are clearly Christian holidays and national holidays are made holidays by becomming law, doesn't making them holidays make a law respecting an establishment of religion? I think so. However, Jeffereson did believe Thanksgiving should be a national holiday because it was not a holiday that respected an establishment of a specific religion. On Thanksgiving Day, many folks do give thanks to their respective God, but Thanksgiving is simply a day to "give thanks", so Atheists and Agnostic folk are more than welcome to celebrate.
Now the naysayers are still thinking, "What about the subsequent pillaging and plundering of the Native Americans?" Are the Pilgrims directly responsible for that? I don't think so. In fact, there was much wrong doing going on before the Pilgrims ever got to Plymouth, but not everyone was in on it. In 1605, English captain George Weymouth took five natives with him back to England. In 1614, John Smith made his map of New England. When he left, Captain Thomas Hunt stayed behind and took twenty-four Native Americans back to Spain to sell as slaves. When he got there, he sold a few before he was caught by Spanish friars who took custody of them because they knew this was wrong. And subsequently some of them were returned to their homeland in New England. It wasn't until 1674, fifty-four years after the intial Pilgrims arrived, that problems began to arise between the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims. If you know anything about life expectancy back then, there probably weren't many of the original Pilgrims remaining. And while it is true that there have been many injustices commited against the Native Americans, Thanksgiving should be about where we as a human race went right and not where we went wrong.

Chicken And Cheesy Rice
What you'll need:
Regular white rice (enough for five cups cooked rice)
Boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2)
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup margarine (1 stick)
Broccoli
Six slices American cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Season salt
Parmesan cheese
How to do it:
Get your rice going first. Maybe your rice comes in a box or a bag, but the directions should be on it. If you just have some white rice in a jar, this is the formula I used: 1 2/3 cup of dry rice mixed with 3 1/3 cup of water. I usually throw in a tablespoon of margarine. A teaspoon of salt is optional (I don't like to use it; there will be plenty of salt later). Again, if you don't have cooking preparations for your rice, I brought the water to a boil, covered the pan (it's got to be pretty big) and put the burner on low to simmer for 14 minutes.
During those 14 minutes, start working on the chicken. Cut the chicken lengthwise into strips. Once that is done, stab it with a fork a few times. Take half of your stick of margarine and melt it in a medium size bowl. Put your chicken strips in the margarine and add some paprika or season salt, no more than a teaspoon, but you don't have to measure it, just shake until it looks okay and not too much. Stir it up so that the season salt gets mixed in evenly. Put the chicken on some sort of grilling aparatus. It could be an outside grill (charcoal or propane), George Foreman grill (if that is your thing), or the way I go with a Farberware (at least this time of the year). After you put it on the grill, you can add some season salt if you want, but definitely put on some Parmesan cheese at this point. Don't forget to check your rice.
Your rice should be done before too long. When the rice looks done, give it a taste test to be sure the texture is right. If it is good, add the cream of mushroom soup, cheeses, milk, and the other half of the stick of margarine. It will help to stir it in if you have a small amount of heat under the pan. You used a big pan right? This is a good amount of ingredients. It is also good to to add some more season salt at this point, but don't go nuts! All told you probably don't want more than two teaspons of season salt. Use your best judgement. Turn off the fire when you're done stiring.
Don't forget to flip the chicken.
Next is broccoli. I don't like broccoli, but I put it in there anyway. More on this later. Anyway, you put brocolli however you like it in a small pan with water and boil it for a while. Drain it and set it aside.
Chicken done? Rice done? Broccoli done? Good. Sounds like you're done. Guess again. All this stuff has to stew together and the juices complement each other. Okay, if you like broccoli, go ahead and mix it in with the rice. If not, you can put the broccoli on the very bottom so that the broccoli eaters can have some (or off to the side, whatever). A good idea would be to add a few heaping spoonfuls of rice to the broccoli and mix it up and set that mixture in one part of the bowl. Add the rest of the cheesy rice. Then add the chicken on top. Push it down just a little so that it is nested nicely in the cheesy rice, but not so that the top is covered. It needs to breathe. This whole mixture should go in a big baking bowl/pan/pot. If you can't find one big enough with a lid, you can cover it with a pizza pan. Bake this stuff in a preheated oven at about 400 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Take it out, dish some on a plate, and let cool before sticking it in your mouth. Makes for great leftovers.

Don't Forget
I'm going through another "enlightened" phase.
The other day I met a gentleman that didn't own a television. If that the first thing that comes to you mind is, "How can someone not own a television?", then you are watching too much television!
I had two experiences in big homes recently. One was home I was in while helping a painter. It was a huge home and looked that way both inside and outside. A fairly young couple live there with their two or three kids. The other was a big four bedroom home that I was showing to a lady looking for a new place. She loved it, but it was too far away for her. The other thing she said was that it was a little smaller than what she was thinking of. This home was a $340,000 home way out in the country. In the suburbs, it would fetch $500,000 easily. It sits on 2.5 acres of land, and the four bedrooms I mentioned earlier, are huge. But it was a little smaller than what she really wanted.
The point is that we've been spoiled. We're wealthy and we have lots of technology. If you're reading this on a computer screen in a heated room, chances are you've never really known what it is to work to survive. People are dying of starvation elsewhere, but here a $340,000 home isn't good enough. Somehow we've fooled ourselves into believing we work hard and we deserve everything we have and more. We don't deserve it. We're just lucky that we were brought into the world where we are. Don't you dare forget it.

A Pseudo Tex-Mex Recipe
Things you'll need:
8oz. package of cream cheese
One can refried beans
Salsa
Cheddar cheese
Tortilla chips
In the bottom of a shallow dip/casserole type dish, spread an even layer of cream cheese. Use the whole package. Your dish should be about twelve inches in diameter if it's round, or maybe 9 x 12 rectangular. Somewhere around there. This ain't rocket science.
Then spread on the refried beans. Ideally you won't have more beans that cream cheese, but it's okay if you do. Next put on a layer of salsa. Now, personally, I don't like salsa, so I just leave it out, but most people like it okay. Then you go ahead and put on the cheddar. You don't need too much, but enough to melt and make a seal over everything. If you want, you can add some mozzerella.
Heat it up. Put it in the oven at 400 degrees until the cheese melts. You don't want it to brown though. Or you can microwave it just as easily. Usually four minutes is good, check the cheese, and then give it another minute or so.
Then you've got this dip stuff. Eat it with tortilla chips, or even those large corn chips. Don't burn your mouth.
I had planned an audio post, but Audioblogger is being mean.

The Red Cross Vs. The World
Earlier I said I would say I prefer the Red Cross over the Salvation Army, but I'm still conflicted. The reason was because, as you may have heard before, Red Cross CEO Marsh Evans reported earnings for 2003 fiscal year were $651,957. You can look up online and find any number of sources that have this figure. In fact, I have their income taxes in PDF form somewhere because as a charitable NPO, they have to have that stuff public.
What does the Slavation Army CEO make? I don't know. One conservative media website reported that his income was a mere $13,000, which sounds noble and humble, but I think the truth is being bent there a bit. With a salary like that, their CEO would be living below the poverty line.
With this information in hand, it almost seems like a no brainer to give to the Salvation Army because it would appear that more of your dollars go towards helping people. Here's what might bother some people, a fact that I am only realizing recently. The Salvation Army is in fact a church, more or less. From the Charity Navigator web site:
So there you have it, the Salvation Army is a big evil church. Did I say evil? Those are your words, not mine. In this day and age it is increasingly popular to hate Christians, no matter what their denomination. So it isn't surprising that the Salvation Army downplays this fact heavily. Go to their website at salvationarmy.org and read their philosophy. It's not a bad philosophy unless you just like to rag on Christians because they believe in something you don't. However, despite all this Christianity, have you ever heard of the Salvation Army denying help to non-Christians or doing missionary work in order to convert people. I sure haven't. And since they aren't on their soapbox always shouting, "Be like us or go to hell," maybe they aren't all bad.
OKay, so despite my defense of the Salvation Army, you still prefer the Red Cross. What about that big salary? Well, the good news is that maybe in response to public outcry a year ago when this story really hit, Marsha Evans salary for the 2004 fiscal year was $450,008 as reported by Charity Navigator. Now admitedly, this still sounds like a lot of money to someone like me who is fresh out of college and scraping to make ends meet. Hell, it would be a lot of money to most of us. Let's put things in perspective a little bit though. The annual revenue of the American Red Cross is over three billion dollars. You don't just volunteer for the Red Cross and start managing that kind of money; you do need some buisness sense. On top of that it is a big job. Now does she really need all that money? Of course not. No one needs that much money. The question is, how much money is enough money for that position? It's a big job and probably stressful. If the salary were $100,000 (which still sounds like a lot of money to me, but I'm sure I know people that actually make that much), would she still do the job? Probably not. With the experience that it takes to be CEO of the American Red Cross, there are probably other ways to make more money. The average CEO in 2004 made something like $9.8 million. So it really doesn't sound so bad when Marsha Evans makes $450,008. If you want to learn more about CEO salaries, check out http://www.aflcio.org/corporatewatch/paywatch/. Or look at our sports heros and entertainment moguls. Howard Stern's new contract with Sirrius radio is $100 million a year and what great skill does he have?
So, what has been determined here? Nothing really, but it was a learning experience wasn't it? The truth is that no charity is going to be perfect, so try to go with which one suits your tastes and politics best. In addition to a charity's philosophy, try to look at the percentage of their administration costs. You can find more data on various charties at charitynavigator.org. And just a percaution, though the aflicio.org site is a NPO, be aware that it has its own agenda and to keep the data in context.

The Salvation Army is exempt under Internal Revenue Code from filing Form 990 as a "church or convention or association of churches." As a result, we lack sufficient data to evaluate their financial health. We know many donors are interested in this organization and have asked the Salvation Army to submit their financial data to us for review, and they have elected to decline, as they are allowed under federal law.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood
Good news for me today. Through the grapevine I got a call about doing some side jobs painting wall murals and the like. I don't know the details yet, but it sounds pretty promising. It could turn into a full time thing. What to do about real estate then? There is a possibility of becoming an inactive agent, in which case I would still have to pay real estate fees. My mother has suggested being honest and saying I can't afford the fees (which is true). Although, I would be able to afford them if I had another job. It's not quite irony, but it's close. The advantage of being an inactive agent would be that I could still get compensation for referrals and take the ocassional listing. The fees remaining would add up to around $700, which is a whole lot cheaper than the $2500 I would owe if I backed out on my contract. Right now it's hard to imagine that as a kid I ever wanted to be a grown up.
No recording done yet today. Friday will be the best day for recording, and I might even try to record some drums. I have almost two full songs recorded at this point. Almost. The vocals aren't quite right. I've got one song I like that I just wrote. Half a verse left to go.

Learn!
Sometimes you have to hop out of bed at one o'clock in the morning and buy yourself a used copy of Visaul Quickstart Guide to Illustrator 10.
And damn it! The Dandy Warhols show isn't sold out, so that means no one would want to buy my tickets. I don't understand it. They have a pretty good underground following and there are plenty of underground folk in the city. Their last show sold out I know. I guess this means I get to go to the show, which is good, but I really could just use the money.
The thought of selling my electric guitar has crossed my mind because as I've always said, I can just get another one later. However, this may be the fist, the one, the only, guitar that I could never imagine not having. There is nothing terribly special about it other than the fact that it is an Inca Silver guitar with a maple fretboard, and standard three single coil configuration. Really, I don't want to let it go, and that makes me a little happy. In fact, if I'm ever not strangeled with debt, I will give it new pickups, pots, and a smashing black pickguard but keep the white knobs and pickup covers for contrast.

Work is death
It is the Sunday before Halloween and I am working the floor at Coldwell Banker Primus in Somonauk. This is quite possibly the quietest day I have ever worked here. I'm also working Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. I need to find additional work or sell some art.
Caped Teen Kills Two, Then Self in Calif: It's always the quiet ones, isn't it? Then again, I've been called a quiet guy several times and I don't plan to do anything like that. Maybe that's the thing. No one ever plans it.
I've only got 26 days to draw about 75 more Sharpie Pages drawings. The big plan is to hand them out in front of the Museum of the Art Institute in Chicago. I have no idea how my presence will be received.
