The staph here at Fetafilter wishes you all a most wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!
We hope that you will all take a minute to think about all of those things for which you are thankful. Beyond all of the obvious ones of my family, home, country, etc., I am thanklful that I got to spend a few minutes early this morning just after sunrise, standing quietly at the edge of a small pond. I got to watch maybe 75 ducks and geese floating on the water, appear and disappear into the thick fog sitting on the water. They were making an unbelievable amount of noise, quacking and honking. I walked up to the edge of the water, watched them for a while and then walked off without them noticing me. Really cool.
I am also thankful that the television writers are on strike. So long as they are, they will not be producing the drivel that they feel so underpaid to write. I figure that any time the drivel-pipeline gets shut down, even if only for a short while, that it can't help but be a good thing.
So once you take the little tinfoil tent off of the turkey and are waiting for it to brown, you can pass the time with this great little Thanksgiving flash game. Watch out for those forks!
