I love Cheetos, and I was curious, and I initially intended to just use the timeline to browse the content, but I wound up watching the entire sixteen minutes of this video.  What was most interesting to me was not "how to make a Cheeto," but rather how knowledgeable the chef was with regard to food science.  A professional chef is different from you and me the way a professional golfer is different from a weekend duffer.

Quiet, homeschooled and pondering a church mission trip just a few years ago, at some point Mark Anthony Conditt turned into a brazen bomber who put Texas' capital city on edge for weeks, say those who knew him.

The father of a boy who has Down syndrome is suing the Boys Scouts of America for allegedly blocking his son from becoming an Eagle Scout and revoking his merit badges.

I see these signs all over the place. Sometimes you’re alright, Palo Alto.

There are certain things I wait for every year that tells me spring is really here.  Baseball on the radio, having to change the clocks, and all that beautiful green asparagus piled high at the market.
