address to the fowl

[james a. husky]

All I could think of was a rather distinctively colonial:

"Friends...

I Give You...

"The Bird"!!!

I'm afraid (for the auld warl' bunch of us) that that will have to do!

Or, as Tiny Tim would have said (The little Dickens!!!) "God Bless Us, Everyone!!!".


The proclaiming of "Days of Thanksgiving" was VERY prominent in early English Colonial America... A lot of such proclaimations can be found in the files of the Library of Congress and other on-line sites as printed Broadsides.


So, whether you're celebrating your good blessings in life (and I fervantly Pray that you DO have them...) by Torching the Turkey, Boiling the Haggis, or Baking the Brie (for our "Frenchie Friends... and darn, if that dosent seem like a mighty fine alternative)... I hope that your are surrounded by the realities of ALL the goodness that you EACH have available to yourselves, with the knowledge that there are MANY MORE people than you realize who hold you in good regard!

Stay Well, Friends!

...so...stuffed...

I'm not the only kiltie at dinner tonight- my best friend, an Anderson, wore his tonight- much to the dismay of my sister in law, who thinks that men in kilts are cross dressers. The look on her face when she walked in the door and saw him was priceless!
