My agenda in a few words:
parade, dog show, football, turkey, coma.
Enjoy. I know I will.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.
Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.
A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.
It’s the corruption, stupid.

Dog show? Are your folks showing a dog, or are you trying to fool people into thinking Tunch is just a ridiculously laid-back Jack Russell terrier?

Not a comment about Thanksgiving, but. . . .
Last year during the superbowl, I was flipping channels, and I found, without a doubt the most adorably adictive waste of time. Kinda like volunteering for a stage hypnotist.
On Animal Planet, during the superbowl Animal Planet hosts “The Puppy Bowl” It’s a bunch of puppy’s playing with toys, and eachother during, Just too DAMN CUTE!!!
Also, the half-time show?
It’s the “kitten bowl half time show” a bunch of kittens playing on a football shaped area.
I swear, I OD’d on cuteness.

We had a few people over, with a two-year-old to keep us from going into a coma after dinner, and we were reminiscing about all the people who’d complained to us in the past about Thanksgiving Day cooking being such a burden. I’m always surprised at how little effort (even if it’s over a long period of time) to put together a reasonable spread. Cleaning the house before the guests arrive—now that’s a burden :-).

We had three kids for Thanksgiving dinner. (Which is the same number of kids that we have for most dinners, since it was the same set of kids that we usually feed.) The middle one helped make the pies, since he’s now up to that part of the job. Dinner was two hours late, since FDDD and I weren’t willing to stress to get everything done in synchrony.
It was wonderful. And the Chocolate Pie…heavenly.

Yum. Roasted? Broiled? Fried? Grilled? What do you do with the leftovers?
Oh. You ate with them.
Look, forget I said anything.

I hate admitting this.
But during the superbowl? Animal Planet airs “the puppy bowl” which I love, it’s just too damn cute.
And the halftime show? is the “KITTEN bowl” a little more bland, but still too damn cute.

Took Tim’s advice and pretty much stayed off-line for the duration. Pretty much.
It was nice to talk about pie and actually talk about real pie.
