I read that. That makes me sad. I went to the dollar store for some things on Sat, and they were taking down all the Haloween stuff and putting up x-mas stuff. And I love Thanksgiving! The decorations were so fall and I kina miss em. :)

So who is ready for Thanksgiving?! :D
What does everyone normally do? We head out to the huby's mom's. She cooks an amazing dinner with food from the farm and ham and turkey and so many desserts, and then we talk, and enjoy a lil TV, and play on the 4 weelers!!! So much fun!! :)
Since it's just my wife and I here in Philly, we kind of just stay home and relax.

Usually we have my mother-in-law over, plus a few strays that hav no place else to go. My best riend Charles always comes, so we can have an Indian at Thanksgiving :) I am usually in charg of the turkey, it has never been made the same way two years in a row. My wife makes homemde mashed potatos, and I usually have a baked sweet potato. I can't stand candied ones, but evryone else seems to love them. Then we have to have cornbread stuffing ith sausage and walnuts, and green bean cassarole. The rest of the menu tends to be potluck. We always watch the Macy's Parade in the morning and then footbll in the afternoon. Then it's off to be early so my wife can go to the sales on Back Friday.

David, you'll be happy to know that I have several neighbors that put up Thanksgiving decorations - including one giant, inflatable turkey. It's alive and well on my street.

Egg Shen: Wasn't easy...
I piss myself laughing every time! :D

I haven't been able to convince Ruth to let me deep fry it yet. I have done it jerked, barabacued, maple glazed, and about nine other different ways in the 12 years we have been married.

Actually, my favorite thing to do is get a boneless turkey breast, cut the netting that holds the pieces together, then cover said pieces in some Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning and cook it in my rotissiere.

My guess is that it would be cheaper to buy my own. Or steal the one from th lawn down the street from my mother in law. :)

I cooked a turkey breast once, when we were first married. Then when it was done I grabbed the forks we were usng to prop it up without even thinking. It's a good thing the hospital cafateria was open. :(

Deep fried is so good! When we did Thanksgiving here and a few times at his Mom's place and three times or so at my parents, we fried em! They are so juicy and teh skin is amazing. You really should try and get her to let you, you will never WANT to do it another way!

I just discovered that Robotech is now on Hulu. Horray!
I have all of Robotech, Battle of the Planets and Starblazers on DVD! :D
I also have all of G1 Transformers and if He-Man wasn't so damn expensive ($70 for half a season :/ ) I'd have my Quinella of Favourite Cartoons from when I was a kid on DVD! :)

My mother in law lives about 10 blocks east of us. My father in law lives in Summerville South Carolina. My parents live about 350 miles away.

I'm hoping for either Transformers, Thundercat, or Silverhawks for Christmas.

I don't see how you could get that from Goddannar. Did you watch it dubbed or subbed? Because I remember in the dub they squeezed in a lot of jokes that had NO business being in there, especially when compared to the subtitled version.

That explains it. I HIGHLY recommend you watch the subbed FIRST and then go back for the dubbed. I love that type of humor and even I found the dub to be over the top.

Found this gem on Jay Nordlinger's National Review Impromptus article:
Speaking of bumper stickers, a reader writes, “I spotted something on the rear window of a large SUV — perhaps a Suburban: ‘To err is human. To forgive is divine. Neither is official USMC policy. Semper Fi.’ Laughed so hard I nearly rear-ended the vehicle.”
Classic!
