Since the day is upon us, I thought an official Thanksgiving thread would be in order. I'd like to wish a Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here at the Cascade. I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday. And keeping in the tradition of holiday Micros, I cobbled this little thing together...

maybe just for this season, turkey should be replaced with something else as bird flu stuff is a bit too close at home. especially here in malaysia. anyway, it's not that i'm not thankful that i'm all ok as well as my family members & friends & people i know are ok so far. so in the spirit of the celebration, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our American Cascaders. ...and Happy Thursday to anyone who doesn't celebrate Turkey-Day. No reason you should be left out.

It'd be doable, Jang. Turkey is the iconic bird of choice, but it's perfectly acceptable to go with duck or whatever. I think the important thing about the holiday is keeping thanks. The actual meal itself is secondary to me. And agreed with Rich.

Can't say your priorities are entirely wrong, must admit. ;D
Unless you're Peter. In which case he skips the food and friendship and skips straight to the beer. ;D

Wow....the man consideres a turkey a friend.....thats just sad... So what? Your mom considers her vibrator a friend. Think of all the money your dad would save on batteries if he got her a turkey instead. -SHARK DIGGLER

I think we're missing the point here.... Thanksgiving isn't about turkey.... I have vegan friends who celebrated a vegatarian Thanksgiving this year.... It's about Thanksgiving! Friends, family, being grateful for all we have or all we can give.... all that rot. But I'm still pretty new here so perhaps I should withdraw my nose from where I placed it.

Your right, FLC, I got carried away with a sarcastic joke, my apologies.
