It's Daddy's Day!

Finally went out to see my brother on Friday. As usual we left late but it was a nice day overall. Natalia doesn't see her uncle often but amazing how much she remembers and likes being around him. Saturday I was back in front of my smoker and cooking all day. Pulled pork again with different rub (mustard based) and apple wood for the smoke. However still didn't come out good. I will now need tips. Maybe higher temps? Better quality meat? Wrap it? Help!

Made employee of the month at work and it really doesn't mean much to me. I go in and do the same work day in day out not looking for recognition. It was funny to get it now as so many pointed out to me I never was recognized while working in my old department where I did so much, took care of so many problems and took on so many responsibilities. But I am happy to see my many associates at the front increasing their numbers thanks to me. No one else takes the time to help them out and care.

I want to quote author R.A. Salvatore in his dedication to his upcoming novel and series as I found it something I live by.

"This book is dedicated to anyone who believes that the hero isn’t the one with the biggest sword, but the one with the biggest heart,

Who believes that doing the right thing is its own reward, simply because it’s the right thing to do,

Who believes in karma, or divine justice, or simply that the greatest reward of all is being able to go to sleep with conscience clear."

Finished reading The Human Division and a bit disappointed at the story. Not as page turner as his previous books. There really was no ending and the story overall seems a small part to a much larger story in the war between the two groups. My next book is State of Fear by Michael Crichton and thus far a page turner. I was hoping to also read Animal Farm but picked up the wrong book at the library. So next week I will go pick it up.

More news on the XBOX One is released and I must say I am an XBOX guy but may not be much longer. Seems they are treating its users like criminals by forcing an internet connection and still not really answering the question about used games but simply going around it like a politician. Not to mention the Kinect will be listening and watching you at all times. Sony is in a real good spot to dominate if it simply does the opposite. I already use my Playstation for all my media and entertainment and now I may go full on to that system.
