Where is the Random Thread of Randomness stuff that doesn't belong in other threads thread?

When I was working for the Marines out in Hawaii, they sent me to Korea for one of the big annual exercises. Before I could go I had to take a bunch of orientation courses. One of them was on human trafficking. I'm thinking "Jesus, do I really need to sit on the computer for 2 hours and do a quiz to know I'm not supposed to kidnap women and sell them into sex slavery?" Then I got there and picked up a copy of "Stars & Stripes" and the front page story was on some Australians(?) who'd been caught kidnapping women and selling them into sex slavery.
 
Made a turkey for Thanksgiving. When I was preparing it and pulling the neck and organs out of the chest cavity (I suspect the neighborhood fox will be happy for them) I apparently missed the heart and cooked it along with the bird. Briefly considered eating it but since The Dog was there begging, I offered it to her. She took a few tentative sniffs at it, turned up her nose and walked off. Coming back from this morning's walk, she found a small dirt-encrusted skull of some creature that had been buried in the ground, happily picked it up and carried it off to a comfortable spot to lay down and eat it and I'm like "Really?!" She did decide the heart was acceptable when she came to beg while I was preparing lunch, though.
