Have fun and try not to eat too much. :)

I wont do either......it's a thai food event with some touchy feely bullshit where I have to quote a book about being thankful. I think this will be my quote:

“I needed therapy to bury my anxiety, and alcohol was going to be my counselor.” i.e. I'm thankful for booze.

Happy thanksgiving everyone. May your birds be plump and potatoes without lumps.

I live in a country that celebrates Thanksgiving a month earlier, and I'm currently in a country that doesn't celebrate it at all.
Some Austrians/Brits asked me what Thanksgiving was all about, and all I could really say was "for being thankful". I realized that I don't really know the background of most of my holidays, I just see them as days when I don't have to go to work. :)

It's about duping them thar injuns outta land. I is thankful we gave them disease and whiskey! Go European settlers!
/I dont know what Canadian thanksgiving is about...probably the same thing.
//actually, it's probably just some BS holiday like Valentines

I think the first Thanksgiving feast was when settlers almost starved and then Natives taught them how to grow corn. Wikipedia'ing to see how wrong I am.

I was kind of right.

I looked it up earlier and Canadian's Thanksgiving is about giving Thanks to God for a bountiful harvest.

American Thanksgiving is the day you you're supposed to be thankful that black friday "sales" are only a day away. I'm like 70% sure on this one.
