sorry I missed the celebration, but I hope everything was a great for you. A special day for a special woman… that’s for SURE!

I wonder why Doughboy’s account was deactivated? hmmmm I wonder if doughboy meant costume or custom… I am confused. I don’t really wear any Thanksgiving costume. Well, when I was in kindergarten I dressed up as an Indian for the class play. Whitest Indian you’d ever see!

[quote beatricegalant]Here is an answer I heard from a teenager I just talked to: “the pilgrims came to the US in 1620; they couldn’t survive in the land because they were retarded; the native showed them how to survive; the pilgrims were able to survive for one year, and that year they celebrated it with the natives; everything after this event is irrelevant to thanksgiving”. I hope this helped Richard.[/quote]

lol… well, he got the date right at least

In criminal cases the DA can always bring something to court, the ‘victim’ (in this case Macy’s) does not have to press charges. I doubt the DA would press charges for that amount, but ya never know.

I hate the UK because we don’t have it! :-([/quote]

yeah… but you have Boxing day… and the UK pretty much closes shop (except for the pubs) around Christmas time.

Along the same line, antibiotics. Think of all the lives that have been saved since the dicovery of Penicillin.[/quote]

I think Penicillin was second or third on that list :)

I too have heard it’s very addictive… like vicodine … but I don’t really know that much about it. :( It’s a great pain reliever when you need it, I took a couple the other day… works great. It’s bad for the kidneys or something like that isn’t it?

nice to know it means that much to you.[/quote]

Was that an attempt at cynicism? Were it not for the scientific breakthroughs of the Xray machine, and subsequent technologies based off it, there would have been little the doctors could do to isolate problem spots when I had my heart attack, and there by save my life. Does x-ray technology mean alot to me? You bet your sweet a$$ it does.

Yesterday you were Thankful …

Thanks Bear… your history is close… here’s a great video regarding the history… http://www.history.com/video.do?name=…

I think today it is mostly about family.

[quote babacup]I just finished listening to Alison Armstrong. Do you know if they have the second part of her interview up yet? I think I agree with a lot of what she was saying but not 100%. I would like to hear more.[/quote]

Unfortunately that was the only podcast I could find. I origianlly hear her with Jennifer McLean’s telecalls for “Healing with the Masters” series. I thought she hit men right on the money. I think many women may disagree with some of her views regarding women, but it makes you think though hey?? :)

Are you a wrestler? Are you gay? Classic wrestling is as ancient as the Greek Gods and Goddesses… Grecian wrestling was part of the start of the first Olympic Games way back when the world was young. I think if you ever wrestled, you’d learn it is a sport of strength, skill, and strategy.

Much better… but I would still go for less personally… something like:

It was spring, and the warm verdant forest was a stark contrast to the battle taking place in the bay below Capt. Nedion. The Capt. leaned against a solid oak looking down at the death and destruction … wreckage from the ships mingled with spring pollens floating on the surface of the bay created an eerie sense of chaos. From the corner of is eye, Nedion spied a falling oak leaf drifting down into the bay, like so many other dead soldiers. Weary and hoarse from barking orders Nedion says, “We’re doing exceptionally well in the water! Inform Mr. Short of our impending victory, I believe he will be pleased that his ships haven’t taken on much water, and his industry will stay afloat. Also be sure to let him know his investment as a business man and a friend will garner great rewards.”

I understand that, and I’m sorry we’ll have to respectfully disagree with each other. I find the biological differences of the the genders to be very significant. Hormones create huge differences for the genders… I will never know the pains of menses… or PMS. Of course it’s not really the biological differences that I’m referring to in my post, but the impact of these differences on we the men and women that must live with them. Truthfully science has gone back and forth on these hormones… and yes, both sexes have both hormones only in hugely different amounts … but I fail to see how something so biologically altering cannot have an impact on the people that carry them.
