Thanksgiving was lauded in Annie's Mailbox, an Aunt Agony column in the Daily Breeze, by this column which I propose to update? Paraphrase? a little. I would credit the author, but it is that bestselling-writer Anonymous.
"Things To Be Grateful For" This is grammatically incorrect as we all know never to end a sentence with a preposition.
Be thankful for snug clothing; it means you are well-fed. (snort) Nice try, Fatso.
Be thankful for the mess you pick up after a party at your house. It means you have lots of friends. None of whom have the decency or class to pick up after themselves.
Be thankful if your home needs repairs because it means you have a home. Tell that to the Community Watchdogs who are NIMBY Nazis.
Be thankful that you hear people complain about "the government" because we all have free speech. However all of the special little snowflakes protesting at universities and colleges about "being mistreated" are not exactly holding the ends of that banner as they all seem to feel they require (not need) special treatment. Bitch slap it if it shows up for dinner. That's the real world, a place they've clearly never visited.
Personally, our annual toast is: We can't choose our families, but we can damned well choose our friends! Bottoms up!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING - MAY YOUR TURKEY BE MOIST, PLENTY OF GRAVY AND YOUR FOOTBALL TEAM WINS.
