If I may interject a serious thought into the levity of this thread ....
When you sit down to your dinners today, whether its a home-cooked spread shared with family and friends, or out at a holiday buffet, or even, like myself, just tucking in to a premade deli-department heat-and-eat turkey dinner (although I will be dressing it with some cranberry sauce, ambrosia salad, and a nice glass of Riesling), take just a moment to reflect on those people who have needlessly lost their lives to hatred and violence of whatever form.
There were two mass shootings and the gruesome murders of four young people just within the week leading up to the holiday alone, and it seems like there hasn't been a week gone by this year without the report of some new outrage or atrocity. I'm not going to try to belabor an issue, assign blame, or otherwise score points with these ... I just want to say this —
Pause and look around at all your relatives and loved ones surrounding you. Then remember — there are a lot of families sitting down to dinner today with an unnecessarily empty chair at the table.
Happy Thanksgiving, indeed.
