Don't worry Erishian42. 25% of Doc's post count is snickers and laughs.

At least in this case it's food corporations making money off people buying food to eat. Practical stuff they can make use of. It's not like people hand each other Thanksgiving cards or exchange presents. They don't.

Thanksgiving, in its technical application, is one fancy turkey dinner on a Thursday night in November. That, and watching one parade run in New York City and one NFL game played that evening. Not much more past that, folks. Sorry.

That about describes it..... we try to arrive late, leave early, and keep the hell out of her way. But the 3 day weekend that follows makes up for it. (I don't count Thursday as a day off, becuase I'm *not* having fun!)

Erishian is a she

Yeah, I do apologise for sounding rude or anything, don't mean to offend, but you don't need a day off to thank God, you can do it in about 5 seconds in your head, I'm sure he'll know how sincere you are (if anyone turns this into another religious debate, I'm gonna )

Same for celebrating survival. You can celebrate it without cooking a huge dinner. Actually, now I think about it... haha, kill a bird of fowl to celebrate human suirvival. I don't really get the whole notion of people spending the whole day preparing a turkey for Christmas either... just have something to eat that doesn't take so long to make. (And preferably not meat ).

Oh for crying out loud, everyone doesnt have to go on holiday just cos people at banks want to have a day off so waht, its an excuse to have a day off... big deal, breeds satisfaction and satisfied people are more productive...there, finished.

yeah but it's the spirit that matters Venus it's the idea of having to spend the entire day cooking the bird that counts. Although we have dinner at two so it's not all day for us

It's actually quite depressing. It's like it's a national holiday, just to go out and kill and eat a bird.

I think its bad to kill living plants, I propose we live like that town in north africa and feast on tasty treats of a rare type of clay like soil which when mixed with water is quite edible.
