Like many American's, I love the feast and celebration of Thanksgiving. A time for getting the family together for a delicious meal, beverage, and good times. It is actually my favorite holiday - it's Christmas without all of the commercial and religious overtones. I do love Christmas, though, too - it's the happy time of year and people actually go out of their way to be nice.
Like most human traditions, the Thanksgiving holiday has evolved over time - from a time to be thankful for the end of the harvest, to thanking the almighty for allowing for a peaceful government to exist. It is not a tradition specific to America either, as many countries have their own days of Thanksgiving.
As millions of us will be doing, I plan on eating and drinking a bunch, and celebrating my family - and maybe even taking a nap at some point!
So, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Enjoy, be thankful, and be safe.
Slainte! Cheers! Prost! Salute! Oogy Wawa! L'Chaim!
