9. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Finished with the sweet potato pie, brussel sprouts ready to be packed, and a few miscellaneous ingredients for appetizers if demanded.

My Son's friend from HS back from college and avoiding his parents for that last 18 hours is now off to the rendezvous to meet up with the same, my daughter's on the phone with her 'friends' being her usual rebel persona (thank God!), and it's almost time for bed. *sigh with a smile*

Happy Thanksgiving EVERYONE!

(Here's hoping my Republican Right Wing sister in law decides to NOT make an appearance tomorrow once again DEMANDING an apology from all of the family for Bill Clinton!!!)

While we are spending time with our families, let's be mindful of those of us on the front lines waging peace this holiday in Crawford, Texas. We need to send donations to Crawford Peace House, and send messages of support to all who have made the journey.

Be safe this holiday,

Le Chaim and enjoy this holiday.

My mother's side of the family has a rather downbeat attitude about the holiday, calling it "the worst mistake we Indians ever made." But, she's Tuscarora Indian, so I can understand it.

I`m thankful I`m not fighting Bush`s war in Iraq or living in a hotel room after a hurricane or waiting for help to arive in Pakistan. Let`s hope next year will be a better one for the whole world.

[Hissyspit]

30. Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for 34%, but I'm a glutton, want lower.

(Less is more when it comes to *'s approval ratings...) Also, thankful for all the food I'm cooking up in the kitchen right now, including for the first time, a seasoned-brined turkey - never tried that before, we'll see how it goes - and also, for democraticunderground.com and all my friends here.

[lonestarnot]

53. Good luck with that one! Peace.

[Hissyspit]

112. It turned out great, Lonestarnot. I highly recommend it. Everyone was

commenting on how moist the turkey was and how they could taste the seasonings in the meat - not overwhelming. Just right.

[Nightwing]

I hope that everyone has the opportunity to spend time with those they are closest to. Relax and enjoy the day, because between tomorrow and the end of the year, the shit is going to hit the fan for the Bush administration. We need to be ready.

89. Yes, it was about this time last year

that I was fortunate enough to discover DU. I thank Brahman for that and for the many things I've learned while lurking. Thanks to the Formless Absolute for big and small changes in the public discourse since last year. The Light is indeed dawning and the Karmic wheel has turned. Let's rejoice for what has been accomplished and stiffen our reslove for what remains to be done. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL DU BROTHERS AND SISTERS. SG

[Surya Gayatri]

91. Forgot to add...

Let's all have a thought, project positive energy, or say a prayer for those who have less to celebrate--who are suffering from the misguided and selfish policies of the powerful anywhere in the world. SG

92. Happy Thanksgiving to you!

The colonists had intended
to produce their own food, but had neglected to bring
any cows, sheep, mules or horses. (They may have had pigs.) To
be sure, the Pilgrims had intended to make most of their livelihood
not by farming but by catching fish for export to Britain.
But the only fishing gear the Pilgrims brought was useless in
New England. Only half of the 102 people on the Mayflower
made it through the first winter.

How did even that many survive? In his history of Plymouth
Colony, Governor William Bradford himself provides one answer:
robbing Indian houses and graves. The Mayflower hove
to first at Cape Cod. An armed company of Pilgrims staggered
out. Eventually they found a deserted Indian habitation. The
newcomers—hungry, cold, sick—dug open burial sites and ransacked
homes, looking for underground stashes of food. After
two days of nervous work, the company hauled ten bushels of
maize back to the Mayflower, carrying much of the booty in a
big metal kettle the men had also stolen. “And sure it was God’s
good providence that we found this corn,” Winslow wrote, “for
else we know not how we should have done.”

104. Since our U.S. Defense Department....

apparently saw little reason to spend money on armor for our soldiers' vehicles, we should do the right thing and make up for the leadership's lack of decency.
The following addresses will accept funds to provide kevlar to "armor-up" those vehicles:
Soldiers' Angels, 1792 W. Washington Blvd., Pasadena, California, 90114 or www.soldiersangels.org. Thank you all in advance.
