Thanksgiving: Revisiting the Past

It was a year ago when I discussed my dislike for the childish name of Turkey Day. It is effing Thanksgiving. You celebrate with turkey (or ham or some other wonderful feast), you do not celebrate the turkey. The celebration involves our gratitude to our Creator and the founding of our country... we are not grateful for a turkey dinner (even though we're plenty damn hungry the moment we arrive at our relatives' house).

Please, allow me to be lazy... click on the link in the title to take the Wayback Machine (gee thanks, Mr. Peabody) to 2005 and revisit my grumblings on why Turkey Day is lame, and why Thanksgiving is great.

We all have plenty to give thanks for, so show some respect, modesty, gratitude, and some effing manners.

Thank you for your time and attention. ;)
