    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I just know I'm going to get stuck working a case.

    Also, first front came tonight and I'm not going to get home to pick my 5 trees worth of pecans before they spoil on the ground. If some of you Texans want my address, you're welcome to go get them yourself, it's right next to that Red River thingy off I-35.

    Heading home Monday, then prepping myself for an amazing Thursday. We're eating at my place this year, which is awesome because there's less travel time involved.

    Also, I'm trying to see if there's any business in the area that will hire me to work on Black Friday only.

    Turkey is my least favorite meat, thankfully pumpkin is my favorite pie. Go easy on the turkey, eat half a pie, that's my plan.

    I have a dislike of Turkey as well...

    Thanksgiving for me = Being able to spend some time with my girls, Watching a Football game or two, having beers with my brothers.

    The food has always been...meh.

    I must hand it to the yanks, they've managed to turn all their Holidays into great foodfests. Barbequ's and beer on July 14th, Turkey and pumpkin on Thanksgiving, and...well lots of everything with Christmas. Genius.


    (An early) Happy Thanksgiving, and enjoy!

    The best part about Thanksgiving is it's ability to avoid over-commercialization. Yeah, there's football to be watched, and Black Friday (which is pointless since Christmas crap goes on sale before Halloween), but Thursday remains as a day to get together with friends and relatives without having to buy stuff other than food.

    I heard about a great new turducken.

    Simmons: (Explaining a Turducken) It's a chicken in a duck in a turkey.
    Church: You know, because the holiday isn't quite gluttonous enough on its own.
    Grif: Sounds awesome, is that what we're having?
    Sarge: Nope. Although impressive, I decided they stopped short when designing the turducken.
    Church: Yeah. They seem like real underachievers there.
    Sarge: So I decided to make my own variety.
    Church: What's that, a polecat stuffed in a possum?
    Sarge: Nope, first we start with a hummingbird-
    Grif: A what?
    Sarge: Put that in a sparrow, stuff them both in a cornish hen, then put that in a chicken. Put all that in a duck, then a turkey, then in a bigger turkey.(Picture shows Michael Moore)
    Grif: Two turkeys?
    Sarge: Hey, it's Thanksgiving. Put that in a penguin, stuff that in a peacock, then an eagle, shove it all in an albatross, then an emu, next comes an ostrich, then a leopard! Put all that in a pterodactyl, and then stuff it in a Boeing 747.
    Church: (Short Pause) Cool. I get a wing.
    Simmons: I call the turbine.
    Sarge: Alright! Hunker up boys, hey Grif! What kinda meat do you like? First class, or coach?
    Church: You know if we cook this thing at three hundred and fifty degrees at ten minutes a pound, it's not gonna be done for 11 years.
    Sarge: That's why we're going to deep fry. (Oil Tanker Horn) There's the oil now!
    Simmons: What was the leopard for?
    Sarge: Presentation.

    I heard they once tried an OstriTurDuckEnMmingbird. Lives were lost.

    As for me, I would never eat a food with the word "turd" in it.

    Excited that I get to go home and see the folks, but other than that, no. I've never been a big fan of Thanksgiving grub...
