We had a great week down in the Austin area. My parents live in Liberty Hill and we spent the week at their ranch. The boys never left the ranch for the entire week. They were occupied by Gator rides through the woods, playing with the dog, feeding the cows, and exploring for rocks.

We had Turducken on Thanksgiving day. It was good. The duck was my favorite part of it. On Saturday, Dad cooked the best Prime Rib Roast I’ve ever had. I’ve recently overtaken him in the art of grilling a steak and simmering the perfect pot of chili, but he’s got me beat in the prime rib category. I can get away with making the above claims because he doesn’t read my blog. Otherwise, he’d be calling for a cook-off.

I’ve been blogging less and twittering more. I like twitter. It feels like blogging, but with less effort. I can see why some say it is addictive. I’m wondering if twitter and other forms of micro-blogging will ultimately kill blogging as we’ve known it?

I can still see how blogging is useful to share longer pieces of content, but twitter seems better suited for the short random comments, quotes, and links that used to show up on blogs. What do those of you who both blog and twitter think?
