  9. Well, hurray to this Holiday where, within a month of Christmas, we proceed to stuff ourselves in a disgusting manner, most likely being one of the main reasons for the rise in American obesity.

    HURRAY!

  11. I'm English and I don't really understand the concept of Thanksgiving, but I hope you Americans have a good one!

    Anyone who comments after me, would you mind explaining Thanksgiving to me?

  12. Thanksgiving is celebrated because of the the Pilgrims and other people that came over on the Mayflower, making peace with the Native Americans. (I think. If I'm wrong, please don't go off on me about what an idiot I am.)

  18. Ironically, the original pilgrims were British!! This was well before the US Revolutionary War. The pilgrims who survived a very nasty winter the year before were thankful and they invited the natives who taught them how to grow new crops. So essentially it is a harvest celebration. We are supposed to eat native foods, like Turkey and pumpkin. While it is an American holiday, it can also be a time to celebrate harvests all over the world.

    As for eating too much and adding to obesity, it is possible to limit how much you eat. Turkey is not unhealthy and neither are veggies or white potatoes. While I have witnessed some over eating on Thanksgiving day, its a personal choice. The obesity in America is more due to lack of exercise (computer and video gaming?), fast food (McDonalds), and the overabundance of corn syrup in all our processed foods. It is NOT due to Thanksgiving. LOL I find that hilarious though that one would say fresh meats and veggies are the cause of obesity.

  19. @ Trina:
    A lot of places let their workers have Thursday (and some Friday, too) off. I do have a couple of buddies working today, but they both volunteered for the extra hours. The number of people working today is greatly outweighed by those not, at least where I live.

  21. Thanksgiving was started as the sharing of peace between the pilgrims & the Indians but it's evolved into a national holiday where everyone gets together with family and has a big feast

    Happy Thanksgiving everybody :)
