    I'm thankful everyday for my family and friends, but on Thanksgiving morning I was most thankful for the power snake my father in law left me when he passed. I had to use it early Thanksgiving day as we found the main sewer drain in the house clogged. It took me about an hour or so, but I managed to unclog it. Trying to get a plumber on Thanksgiving day would not have been easy or cheap.

    I can't add anything that you all haven't already said. But... I'd like to add one little thing. God Bless you all. God Bless your families, and God Bless this wonderful country of ours. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    I'm thankful for having "first world" problems which don't amount to squat compared to the folks that have real problems, and they don't complain because they have no idea.
    Ahhh, what do I know?

    Everyone has problems, it's just how you put them into perspective I guess?

  • OnastoneOnastone Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Thankful to be alive, each day is a gift to enjoy family, friends, and life! Being a coin forum, should that be added to the list? Okay, thankful for coins too!!!!

    Give thanks for hilarity after another crazy year
    By George F. Will

    Tryptophan, an amino acid in turkey, is unjustly blamed for what mere gluttony does, making Americans comatose every fourth Thursday in November. But before nodding off, give thanks for another year of American hilarity, including:

    A company curried favor with advanced thinkers by commissioning for Manhattan’s financial district the “Fearless Girl” bronze statue, which exalts female intrepidity in the face of a rampant bull (representing (1) a surging stock market or (2) toxic masculinity). Then the company paid a $5 million settlement, mostly for paying 305 female executives less than men in comparable positions.

    New York’s decrepit subway system took action: Henceforth, gender neutral announcements will address “passengers” rather than “ladies and gentlemen.”

    California now can jail certain caregivers who “willfully and repeatedly fail to use a resident’s preferred name or pronouns.”

    A Massachusetts librarian rejected a donation of Dr. Seuss books because they are “steeped in racist propaganda,” and The New Yorker discovered that “Thomas the Tank Engine” is “authoritarian.”

    Always alert about planetary crises, The New Yorker also reported: “The world is running out of sand.”

    A food truck offering free lunches to workers cleaning up after Hurricane Irma was banished from a Florida town because its operator had no government permit to do that.

    United Airlines said: Assault? Don’t be misled by your eyes. That passenger dragged off the plane was just being “re-accommodated.”

    Even Sen. Bernie Sanders went to Mississippi, to the Nissan plant in Canton, to help the United Automobile Workers with yet another attempt to convince Southern workers of the delights of unionization. The workers, 80 percent of whom are black, voted 2-to-1 against the UAW.

    A New York Times tweet about the South reported a shooting at a nightclub “in downtown Arkansas.”

    Louisiana’s Democratic Party joined the virtue signaling by changing the name of its Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner.

    UCLA researchers warned that because Americans’ pets eat meat, they endanger the planet by generating 64 million tons of carbon dioxide.

    Forty-two years after the government began (with fuel economy standards) trying to push Americans into gas-sipping cars, the three best-selling vehicles were the Ford, Chevrolet and Ram pickup trucks.

    A year after a NASA climatologist (from the “settled” science of climate) said California was “in a drought forever,” torrential rains threatened to break dams.

    Pierce College in Los Angeles was sued after it prevented a student from giving away Spanish-language copies of the U.S. Constitution because he was outside the .003 percent of the campus designated a “free speech zone.”

    Two years after social justice warriors convulsed the University of Missouri in Columbia, freshman enrollment was down 35 percent.

    An Arizona State University professor allowed some students in her human rights class to stage anti-Donald Trump protests in lieu of final exams.

    The University of Arizona guide instructed instructors to encourage students to say “ouch” when something said in class hurts their feelings.

    Massachusetts continues to be surprised that the smuggling of cigarettes into the state increased when state cigarette taxes increased.

    Although San Francisco’s hourly minimum wage has not yet reached its destination of $15, the city is surprised that so many small businesses have closed.

    McDonald’s probably was not surprised when its shares surged after it announced plans to replace cashiers with digital ordering kiosks in 2,500 restaurants.

    Finally, Domino’s Pizza is going to need bigger menus. Government labeling regulations require calorie counts for every variation of items sold, which Domino’s says (counting different topping and crusts) includes about 34 million possible combinations. None, however, have excessive tryptophan.
