So it is that time of year again where we all take off our belts and let our stomach hang freely with pride!

Yep, its Thanksgiving.

Okay so you got your turkey, your stuffing, your pumpkin pie, and some good old wine to wash it all down (or fruit juice for the younger audience) and your family. I mean really, I don't even really know the meaning of Thanksgiving. All I know that were giving thanks and giving our left overs to our fat neighbours.

Neighbour: Can I have some of your stuffing? ninja
My mom: Fine if you only give me some of your pumpkin pie. ninja

Now we all know that we should be thankful for stealing our lands from the Natives.

English Settlers: Here here to our old chaps back from England! ^o^
Native people: Yes indeed we shall live together in harmoney for eternal life. ^-^
English Settlers: *Takes out guns* BUUURRRRN!!! cool

And look how that turned out. We pushed the Native peoples out of their land and into restricted areas so they can live in harmony with their own people. *Shakes head* It makes me so sad...

Anyways moving along to something more intresting. I always wondered why Thanksgiving was different for America and Canada. I mean we might hate eachother but does it mean we have to change the dates just to show how Canadian we are?

Canadian primeminster back then: Okay thats it America! Were going to show how macho we are by changing our dates of Thanksgiving! scream
American president back then: Oh noes! Please! It is only going to confuse the slow childern in our nations! gonk
Canadian primeminster: Never! We are different and Candian...EH! *Changes date to October 10th* talk2hand
Amerian president: NUUUU!!!!!!! YOU BROKE THE CHAIN! *Drops to the floor twitching* X_x
Canadian primeminister: Heh heh...Alllriiiigght....Um...Eh! *Thrust*

The turkey is the center piece at every Thanksgiving. I mean without the turkey it wouldn't be Thanksgiving. It would be just a dinner of thanks with no turkey. All though I wonder why the turkey is the prize animal at Thanksgiving?

George: OMGZZZ GUYS!!! YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE IT! But I actually killed something! Squee! 4laugh
English Settler: George are you sure it is not a other tree? stare
George: No! No! Okay so I was like...Walking in the woods. And I found the prettyest bird alive! LIKE OMGZ! I mean the brown really didn't match its eyes but it was a start, but I killed it anyways because it was soooo not in the fahsion season right now. whee
English settler: Thats great George, what are you going to call it? surprised
George: Well it looks like a Fred! =D Or a Margret! But I like don't know what its gender is!
English settler: I can relate. -.-

Ah memories are given at Thanksgiving for my family. I mean were always going to screw something up no matter what.

-Last year-
We broke the turkey.

-Five years ago-
We forgot the turkey.

-Ten years ago-
We never knew about thanksgiving.

So this year were going to a friend's house. =D

So that concludes my journal entry. So anyways we should be blessed for what we have! Like our computers! Cause without that I couldn't provide this journal entry.

Merry Christmas and good night everybody.

What do you mean it is ten in the morning?
