Just be thankful...

[almostwitty]

Today, as 260 million people (mostly Americans) sit down with their families eating turkey in the full knowledge they'll probably have to do it again in a months time for Christmas, I'm thankful I'm not one of them!

The whole hullabaloo over Christmas is bad enough, without having the dress rehersal that is Thanksgiving as well. Or have I got it completely confused and wrong ?!

A lot of families travel for Thanksgiving that don't for Christmas, and vice versa. Thanksgiving is all about the meal, without presents and so forth.

And a lot of people don't eat turkey at Christmas in the States because of Thanksgiving turkey! We usually had ham instead.
