So, what did everybody else do for Thankgiving?
Well, the family and I enjoyed every bit of this day. I figured, better late than never to get out here and post something up. Surprisingly, I didn’t think about politics all day! I need a holiday more often! We had the kids over - ate a LOT of food - watched the parades and the ball games. You know, when I was a kid, I remember the main Thanksgiving day football game was always the Dallas Cowboys versus the Washington Redskins (Cowboys and Indians). What the hell happened with that tradition? Did someone decide it wasn’t PC to pit cowboys against Indians on the day we’re supposed to be paying homage to the Pilgrims and Indians coming together?
Oh well. Is there something we can do about having the Lions play every Thanksgiving? They really suck! It never fails, the triptophan from eating too much turkey always kicks in during the Lions game..in addition to the fact that game is always so boring - I always end up passing out on the couch for about an hour or two. Just once, I’d like to try and stay awake through the whole day!
Well..there’s always next year!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you enjoyed your day of Thanks.
My folks live out in the middle of nowhere, so after the meal, I let them babysit my kid and went for a good ol’ fashioned country cruise- complete with inhalational inspiration. Then sat in awe in front my old man’s new 52″ HDTV and was oddly thankful that someone I know got suckered into ordering the NFL Network.
3degrees - I bet you sat in awe! LOL. I get the NFL network as part of my overall package with DirecTV - but - I do have that SuperFan program - get all the games on the weekend in HD. It’s great. Glad you had a good thanksgiving.
David - that’s pretty funny. There’s going to be enough turkey around for that for sure!
