    I was listening to the radio. They were discussing calorie consumption. The average for Thanksgiving is more than double daily recommended... LOL! :blush:

    i'm kind of thankful people have long forgotten what the day celibrated for the first hundred years it did (that adams family values thing is kind of a hint, but not even nearly).
    i'm very thankful i don't have to live with anybody most of the time.
    thankful i've lived the 72 years that i have and all the things that's enabled me to see and experience. well most of them anyway.
    i'm thankful for these little computers and model trains and real ones and all the wonderful diversity of forests and creatures that live in them.
    i'm thankful that i can buy groceries and pay rent, even if there's not much else that i can.
    that i can see pictures that i can imagine a world, how it would look, even if its not the context that actually surrounds them.
    that i'm able to have the tools and abilities to make pictures to illustrate the ideas that i have and the ones that come to me, where i wander in dreams.
    that i can have such dreams of wondering in such places.

    That was awesome and it must have taken a lot of work. Note the part near the end where the black Labrador bares it's fangs on the right side of the screen near the end. Was this dog growling?

    Lol

    I was trying to figure out who those two fanging dogs would portray as hf members?
    Maybe Virus Guru and Hotwater.

    The two German Shepards were definitely Orison and Irminsul.

    How 260 Tons of Thanksgiving Leftovers Gave Birth to an Industry - The TV dinner

    In 1953, someone at Swanson colossally miscalculated the level of the American appetite for Thanksgiving turkey, leaving the company with some 260 tons of frozen birds sitting in ten refrigerated railroad cars. Enter the father of invention, Swanson salesman Gerry Thomas, a visionary inspired by the trays of pre-prepared food served on airlines. Ordering 5,000 aluminum trays, concocting a straightforward meal of turkey with corn-bread dressing and gravy, peas and sweet potatoes (both topped with a pat of butter), and recruiting an assembly line of women with spatulas and ice-cream scoops, Thomas and Swanson launched the TV dinner at a price of 98 cents (those are Eisenhower-era cents, of course). The company's grave doubts that the initial order would sell proved to be another miscalculation, though a much happier one for Swanson; in the first full year of production, 1954, ten million turkey dinners were sold.
