Turkey Day!

So what is turkey day all about? I used to think it was about the pilgrims and the indians and all that nice stuff they teach you in school. My understanding is that is not true, and the "thanksgiving story" is a load of crap.

I like the idea of a national day of gratitude, but I am not sure if that is really wat happens. We talk about the things we are thankful for in the weeks leading up to the holiday. Then on the big day we make mountains of food, glut ourselves, sleep it off, and then eat turkey sandwiches for weeks.

My guess is that if we were truly thankful we would probably do some things a little different. Personally, i would rather just call it turkey and continue the holiday as it is. the only condition I place on the holiday is that all turkey's must be deep fried!!!
