It's on a Thursday... Again

Since 1863, Thanksgiving has been an officially observed holiday in the US, celebrated on a Thursday in November. Since 1939, it has been observed on the 2nd to last Thursday of November. This will be the 144th time the holiday is held on a Thursday. Thursday... Thursday... Thursday. Now that we've cleared that one up...

I know it's all of two months away, and there are probably a handful of birthdays and Halloween in between, but has anyone discussed where we'll be having the main Thanksgiving Dinner this year? Will it be at Twenty-Two-Ten, or Eleven-Nineteen, or perhaps some other familiar address we all recognize? Will it be a trip up to 'Nor Cal' and San Jose?

And, for that matter, who's gonna be cooking? Who will bring the soup-like mashed potatoes (or will they be more like oatmeal this year)? Who will sing about slaving over the opening and microwaving of the canned corn? Who will crack jokes about the shape of the turkey's neck when the innards are being taken out of the internal cavity of the 20 pound bird?

Not I, for one. hehehe

So pass the word around, 'cuz I haven't heard a thing.

Cheers, y'all.
