I’m going to celebrate thanksgiving the traditional way.

Gather all my friends and family…have a huge feast…

Then kill them and take their land.

Brilliant.

I will be having dinner with my parents, then partying with my friends as my parents leave town with my brother for a soccer tournament.

I had soup, and the new fireplace got fitted today.

What a day.

I was violently ill yesterday and threw up multiple times. :frowning:

But today I feel much better, and just in time to stuff myself and get fat and bloated and lazy.

Take it easy everyone.

Ya’ll know nothing about Thanksgiving. It’s not about Squanto and the Pilgrims, it’s about the Union victory at Gettysburg and Vicksburg.

The American Thanksgiving, that is.

What’s the Canadian thanksgiving about? Anything in particular?

We are so ungrateful here in Norway, that we don’t have a Thanksgiving Day.

Which is just as well, at least for the turkeys.

To my knowledge, Canadian Thanksgiving simply celebrates harvest.

I read somewhere that they started celebrating after King Edward VII got over some illness.

Yes, although he was still Prince of Wales then, since Thanksgiving was first officially observed in 1872 in Canada; King Edward VII did not take the throne until 1901, when Queen Victoria died.

Contemporary Canadian Thanksgiving is a festival of harvest, however.

I already had my “thanksgiving” day.

Mine was good. I didn’t have to cook anything, which rules.
