Eat us, hey! It’s Thanksgiving Day! Eat us! We make a nice buffet! We lost the race with Farmer Ed, so eat us, because we’re good and dead!

I went to happy hour yesterday. It was fantastic. I haven't been to a happy hour since Vasu left in August. I used to go out more regularly, but especially since the set location for Batling celebrations is now forty miles from my house, I just can't go. Anyway, yesterday's happy hour was everything it should be:
It was located less than 1 mile from my office and all the food and liquor was paid for by someone else. Who could ask for anything more?

Tomorrow I get to eat turkey and stuffing and mashed potatoes. Lovely. So excited.
Happy Thanksgiving!

And in case you should ever wonder, the entire script from Addams Family Values is on the web. The first Thanksgiving as divined by Pocahontas played by Wednesday Addams.

"You have taken the land which is rightfully ours. Years from now, my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans and drink highballs. We will sell our bracelets by the roadsides. You will play golf, and enjoy hot hors d’oeurves. My people will have pain and degradation. Your people will have stick shifts. The gods of my tribe have spoken. They have said, “Do not trust the Pilgrims – especially Sarah Miller.

And for all these reasons, I have decided to scalp you, and burn your village to the ground"
