    Default Happy Thanksgiving Day

    For all U.S based members, have a great Thanksgiving Day on the 27th. For everyone else have a Turkey Sandwich. We'll be thinking of you as we stuff our faces.

    I picked up a guy on the freeway today. Took him out to lunch and he took me back to his "home" which was basically a tent city under the bridge. Spent all day talking to them. I would encourage all to do the same. Jesus taught us to care for the poor, please do it. Our worst fears are not as bad as our worst fears.

    It is a time to gather those among us and give thanks. In this day and time so many divisions are prevalent.
    Thanksgiving is, and should be, a universally accepted way to be together, no matter what.
    A fine time to share with all, IMO. Good diversity makes a fine Thanksgiving!
    Just me!

    Well, it still seems to be a good time to invite everyone you come into contact with to your home. I have all kinds of Americans every year. Always a hoot. Gotta stay on top of Mum-in law.......She can cause some issues!
