Thanksgiving Day 2008

Rai

Today we celebrate the beginning of a colorful and festive season of gift-giving, and for the the majority of women, shopping. Thanksgiving Day is the one day in the year when we, humans, partake in the massacre of thousands of poor turkeys. Ooopps, I mean we partake in the celebration where we reminisce history.

With that said, let us not forget the true spirit of Thanksgiving, that we should be thankful for everything that we have, good or bad, and share all the blessings with others. We also should remember that this is the time in the year that we spend with our families and friends, and to put our Black Berry devices and/or office work aside to give more time for our family. Nothing beats a quality time with your child and spouse, believe me.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, may I also suggest that we stop the killing of thousands of turkeys on this day. President Bush has pardoned two turkeys this year, so that is a good start to stop the massacre of these poor birds. No wonder the birds look so sad on Thanksgiving.

Anyway, to give a perspective of how Thanksgiving begins, Governor Palin would like you to see how turkeys reach your tables.
