So gluttony reigns today. Let us hope we can also remember the things for which we can and should be thankful.
In CH (Switzerland), there is no holiday today. Not that the Swiss are not thankful, but it is a USA holiday. Since Advent and Christmas are near at hand, there are turkeys in the stores. It is snowing outside my window, and I am grateful for that (until the shovel has to come out).
Another classmate from kindergarden onward dropped yesterday. She was my age and died a miserable death. Guess that's REALLY something for which to be grateful.
I am amazed and thankful for what the internet has done for humor. In what used to take weeks and months, jokes now are spread in an instant. Frequently, as I sit here at this machine, I wonder what my parents and grandparents would think if they looked over my shoulder. Talk about a time warp!
