Today is National Spinach Day!

Sena just told me today is National Spinach Day. Naturally this means she is going to prepare a big whopping mess of spinach for us to eat. She also recently ordered a 100-gallon keg of Super Beets supplement capsules as part of her health food project. She drank the Super Beet Kool-Aid, if you know what I mean.

I guess Popeye the sailor man is still one of the best spokespersons for spinach, which I actually sort of like when it’s soaked in vinegar for about a year or so. When I was a kid, I used to watch Popeye cartoons. The basic storyline is Bluto uses Popeye for punching bag until a can of spinach weighing a metric ton drops out of the sky on Bluto. This never taught Bluto a lesson.

In honor of National Spinach Day, we’ll probably have a platter of Florentine chicken fricassee with a pound of spinach simmered with extraterrestrial brain lobes paired with Bigfoot armpit glands and a glass of chilled free range beagle pee layered with beet juice. Yum.

Maybe just a salad. Happy National Spinach Day!

Closing the Loop on All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office Search for Extraterrestrials?

Just in case you haven’t already heard, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) revealed the lack of evidence proving the existence of extraterrestrials from the reports about what we used to call UFOs.

And NASA has said basically the same thing.

So, is there anything left to say about this? Probably not from the official side of the issue. But I don’t think this will be the end of reports of UFOs from the public.
