Sonic-D Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 God bless you all and I wish you guys a lovely Thanksgiving. Hope the food tastes good too!!!
dreamwhisper Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 it's thanksgiving? than what was that holiday we just had in October where we ate turkey and pumpkin pie? hmm, just checked on Wikipedia it looks like Thanksgiving in Canada is October 8th, the same day as Columbus Day in the USA 2007 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
mrarroyo Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving indeed, specially to those going through tough times (economy or poor health). Hoping things get better.
boomana Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, not the history of it, which is fucked up, but more the idea that there is a holiday with a least a loose idea of gathering with friends and family and being thankful for what we have. I know I have more than I deserve in good family, friends, health, and material things, and I am genuinely and deeply grateful. Actually, I'm pretty amazed and humored by it all on most days, even by you guys. May you all have a safe and fun day.
postjack Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 i'm going to eat thanksgiving three times today probably. definitely twice.
morphsci Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving to all you knuckleheads.
shellylh Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving to all you guys and Vickie. I am truly thankful for my wonderful partner, family, friends, job, house, JH13's and internet connection.
The Monkey Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving gang. I am looking forward to slipping into a wine- and tryptophan-induced coma in front of the big TV at my parents' house while watching football and swatting at children who try to change the channel.
Aimless1 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 May you all have friends and/or family to spend this day with. happy thanksgiving!
blessingx Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Did you guys know before Halloween came into its own, there was for a time, "Thanksgiving Masking" (door to door for apples, etc. for the later meal)? Just found that out this morning. Scrambling for Pennies: 1911 | Shorpy Historic Photo Archive Done Up: 1911 | Shorpy Historic Photo Archive Dark or Light? | Shorpy Historic Photo Archive Tables for Ladies | Shorpy Historic Photo Archive Anyway, on the birth and death of holidays, with Halloween increasingly becoming an international and adult one, and Christmas decorations extending to at least it, I wonder how much longer Thanksgiving has? Which is too bad, because as my friend Melissa says, Thanksgiving is the lower stress, good stuff from Christmas - getting together with family and friends, a spirit in the air where strangers are ever so slightly nicer to one another, a wonderful meal, and presents - which you've already got. Hoping you all a great one.
grawk Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 I don't think thanksgiving is in any danger of going away.
Dusty Chalk Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 I am always grateful for Thanksgiving.
Chekhonte Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 As the token native american on this forum I take great umbrage at your celebrating this holliday. I expect you all to mail your turkeys to my palpal verified address and I'll dispose of them properly.
The Monkey Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 @Token Native American: Win. Yeah, sorry about all that. But the Pilgrims did bring the Internet, so y'know, that's something.
morphsci Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 @Token Native American: Win. Yeah, sorry about all that. But the Pilgrims did bring the Internet, so y'know, that's something. and Neon lights. How could we have Vegas without that?
raffy Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here on HC! I'm truly thankful for my family, friends, job and of course, headphones!
Eric5676 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here on HC! I'm truly thankful for my family, friends, job and of course, headphones! Same here. Best to all.
grawk Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 and firewater, don't forget the fire water. And casinos!
digger945 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 This year I'm especially thankful for a good job, and a good cardiologist, who has an even better job thanks to turkeys like me:)
The Monkey Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 In terms of things I am thankful for this year: A steady job, a house, sufficient food and clothing, and relative good health for the majority of my friends and loved ones. And, without getting too cheesy, I am very thankful for this group of kindred spirits, who make my life that much richer.
guzziguy Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving everybody. I'm thankful that I won't have to write test plans for much longer.
manaox2 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 I'm thankful for still having my job, having my family still here, and being able to see them. I'm glad to know all of you as well who make me so much poorer. Happy Thanksgiving!
Hopstretch Posted November 26, 2009 Report Posted November 26, 2009 Happy Thanksgiving Yanks. I'm thankful that you haven't got around to kicking me out of the country yet! Cheers.
