Not having one in Japan this year. Too poor and they don't have Turkey.
But I did get some 100% cranberry Juice from the foreign food store, native American icecream, corn and french fries the closest thing to mashed potatoes.

Man I do miss pie, turkey and eating like a gal sone at my grandmothers.

I am thankful I have my loved ones and for all of you. I wish you all a happy day.

"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." -Einstein

We went to my sister's for dinner. We're having leftovers tonight after we make some homemade cranberry sauce. =)

small mistake tha lc play began in 1937 not 33 and the first feasr between the English and Natives was in 1584 not 85. Granganimeo brought 6 freshly killed deer and other things, pumkins, squash, corn, fish to Arthur Barlowe and about 35 Englishmen.

History can be colored in such a great degree that it simply becomes false. Everyone in the US and Canada has heard the official story of Thanksgiving. You hear about it in grade school. It’s a nice tale of racial harmony and happy co-existing cultures sharing food in a feast and giving thanks, apparently without contradictions to pantheist concepts and monotheistic myths from sun worship perverted to a self sacrificing sadomasochistic god of ego demanding worship and issuing out eternal punishment for nonbelievers and who thought it was necessary to have a son (or become a his own son) and torture and kill it as a sacrifice to himself in order to be able to save everyone from his own wrath so long as they believe in his masochistic tantrum. Also known as Christianity.
