What has become of Thanksgiving?

Today is the fourth Thursday of November. If you boil down the majority of newspaper articles into a theme, the result is that today is a day to eat as much as possible in order to go shopping tomorrow. Shopping? Yes, shopping. In order to prepare for that next major holiday - the one that celebrates retail sales. If you get to WalMart between 10pm and midnight tonight, you can maybe buy one of the two new eReaders for only ten dollars. Certainly cause for celebration and remembrance. Oh, and travel will be difficult.

  1. Skipping all that -- sleeping in and having pie for breakfast was a better way to enjoy a sunny Friday in November :)
