A grandma in Arizona is gearing up for her eighth Thanksgiving in a row with a random guy she accidentally invited to dinner as a teen back in 2016.  Now you could have dinner with them too. The grandma’s name is Wanda Dench.  She’s doing a thing with Airbnb, where up to two guests will get to have a Friendsgiving with them this month, because quote, grandmas “feed everyone.”  You’ll stay at Wanda’s house for the night . . . play board games . . . watch movies . . . and get to be in their annual Thanksgiving selfie. To go with it, Airbnb is making a big donation to the charity Feeding America.  (Here’s the Airbnb listing.)….. A 17-year-old kid just broke a world record for fastest time solving a Rubik’s cube while skydiving.  He jumped from 14,000 feet, and solved it in just over 28 seconds.  He said it was much harder than he expected.  (Here’s the video.)….And finally……………  

The American Humane Society announced the winner of its annual Hero Dog Award.  It went to a 150-pound Great Dane named Maverick.  He works as a therapy dog with the U.S.O. to help support troops and their families. Maverick supports service members, escorts children to military funerals for their parents, and helps men and women cope with trauma. He’s currently stationed at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. (Here’s a photo.)
