HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2005

Just kidding folks! In fact, no less an authority than Dr Anthony Fauci of the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has declared all of America's sacrificial birds safe and quite edible. And, even last week's bird flu scare in Canada turned out to be a false alarm.

Therefore, this year, let us break our day of feasting, if only for a moment, to give thanks for being blessed with good health and so much to eat, and to pray for those who are plagued by disease and chronic starvation....

But for your edification, click here to read the Thanksgiving Day Story (it's brief); and please take note of the enabling (decidedly NOT savage) role the native Indians played in making this day possible.

Bon appétit!
