    Hey Popper! I heard a rumor. It appears the colonists were
    blown off course toward Sweden. They gave thanks for their good fortune and were happy to continue their journey......so.....hey.....go for it.....! Have some turkey.

    Thankful for saber. And fencing in general, but mostly saber. And food. Loooot's of food. But, again, mostly saber. God, I can't imagine doing foil or epee

    Army you beat me to it.

    I'm thankfull for my family, and friends mostly, and then of course all of the good food, etc.

    What are everyone's Thanksgiving Day traditions too?
    We watch the Macy's Day Parade in the morning, of course cook, and usually watch Miracle on 34th Street. Then the next day we put up the Christmas tree

    Easter?? Bah that thing stays up until a few weeks before Thanksgiving. j/k It usually comes down by mid January at the latest.

    Thankful?
    Fencing, definetly. Not just for the sake of fencing but also the things to be learned there-from. I've always wished that I'd started fencing earlier, not just because I would hopefully by now be better than I am currently, but it's definetly helped me prioritize things. It's helped me, and given me incentive, to be a better student. Almost everything personal in my life is influenced by fencing.
    So, for fencing. Thanks.

    Also for second chances. Huzah.

    I had the best Thanksgiving ever! I woke up to an empty home around 2 pm. My mom is vacationing in China. My sister came home around 9 am from her college, and then immediately left to spend the rest of the day with her friends. So I just sat down in front of the computer all day downloading sad love songs. There was no turkey. There was no family. Just my dog and I. Yay!

    well, I'm glad I'm back here, and that I'm still alive, and that my neighbor made me pumpkin pie and turkey with dressing, mashed potatoes, carrots, and other goodies. That my landlord is decent and let me rent the place with no deposit, until things got settled for me.

    Epee is a weapon of deceit and guile. You tend to take your time and counter-attack. You can touch your opponent anywhere at any time.

    Thankful that my wife and I could get together with family and (since we hosted) that we didn't get stuck in the traffic heading home!

    Who still has leftover turkey?

    Ours JUST blew out of the YARD and into the woods!!!!!!!
    : )

    I'm thankful that my uncle got to come home form Iraq (he is a nurse in the Air Forse), no school, seeing my cousins, seeing my second cousins, food, not having to deal with the aggnorant butts at fencing (they are what I call them), seeing aunts, seeing uncles, seeing grandparents, food, bug spray (Louisiana), I could go on, but, you get the picture...
    Oh, and getting a new record in crazy eights (450- beat the record by 150!)
