Happy Turkey Day, everyone!

And remember: if anyone starts getting self-righteous about celebrating the maltreatment of the Native Americans, nobody ever heard Caesar say, "I came, I conquered, I felt really bad about it."

Happy holidays my friends!

I hope everyone has a joyous holiday season.

My wife is pulling me kicking and screaming from my computer to go and eat a lot at two different places. It's hard being the man of the house.

Luck to everyone,

James M. Ward

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

If I am a little later than I had promised on some things it's because I decided to take this week essentially as a vacation, to enjoy my family and to recharge my batteries, a respite that I am truly thankful for.

I will eat, drink and be merry, and once I have slept off too much food and gotten our tree raised and decorated and enjoyed two days with my wife and daughter, I will turn my thoughts to everything still outstanding!

Huzzah Turkey Day!

Could be worse.

Happy Thanksgiving to all! (and Happy random Thursday to our Canadian friends! )

John, that sounds perfect. Enjoy your time off and you'll be better for it when you get back in the swing of things.

On this day, I give thanks to the Fourth Crusade; the greatest Crusade and all of her Crusaders. May your sword arm be strong, your stomach full and the day well.

Happy giving thanks to all who celebrate such things today. And if you do not celebrate the American Thanksgiving holiday today, may your day be great.

Time to eat, watch football, drink and fall asleep way too early.

Happy Thanksgiving!

A brief history of the day for you all: The first president of the USA, George Washington sets aside Thursday, 26 November as "A Day of Publick Thanksgiving and Prayer" during his first year as POTUS.

He signed on 3 October 1789 and entitled "General Thanksgiving," the proclamation appointed the day "to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God."

Quote:
WHEREAS it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favour; and Whereas both Houfes of Congress have, by their joint committee, requefted me "to recommend to the people of the United States a DAY OF PUBLICK THANSGIVING and PRAYER, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to eftablifh a form of government for their safety and happiness:"

NOW THEREFORE, I do recommend and affign THURSDAY, the TWENTY-SIXTH DAY of NOVEMBER next, to be devoted by the people of thefe States to the fervice of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our fincere and humble thanksfor His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the fignal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpofitions of His providence in the courfe and conclufion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have fince enjoyed;-- for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to eftablish Conftitutions of government for our fafety and happinefs, and particularly the national one now lately instituted;-- for the civil and religious liberty with which we are bleffed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffufing useful knowledge;-- and, in general, for all the great and various favours which He has been pleafed to confer upon us.

And also, that we may then unite in moft humbly offering our prayers and fupplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and befeech Him to pardon our national and other tranfgreffions;-- to enable us all, whether in publick or private ftations, to perform our feveral and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a bleffing to all the people by conftantly being a Government of wife, juft, and conftitutional laws, difcreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all fovereigns and nations (especially fuch as have shewn kindnefs unto us); and to blefs them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increafe of fcience among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind fuch a degree of temporal profperity as he alone knows to be beft.

GIVEN under my hand, at the city of New-York, the third day of October, in the year of our Lord, one thousand feven hundred and eighty-nine.

(signed) G. Washington
