Subj:     A Thanksgiving Prayer (S514b)
          From: Joke-Of-The-Day-Mail.com on 11/23/2006

 I am thankful for the wife who says, "Hot dogs for supper!"
 Because she is home with me, not someone else.

 I am thankful for the husband who is on the sofa being a couch
 potato Because he is home with me and not out at the bars.

 I am thankful for the teenager who is complaining about
 doing dishes Because she is at home and not out on the streets.

 I am thankful for the taxes I pay
 Because it means I am employed.

 I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party
 Because it means I have been surrounded by friends.

 I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug
 Because it means I have enough to eat.

 I am thankful for my shadow that watches me work
 Because it means I am out in the sunshine.

 I am thankful for a lawn to mow, windows to clean
 and gutters to fix Because it means I have a home.

 I am thankful for the complaining I hear about the government
 Because it means we have freedom of speech.

 I am thankful for the parking spot I find at the far end of
 the parking lot Because it means I am able to walk and I have
 been blessed with transportation.

 I am thankful for my huge heating bill
 Because it means I am warm.

 I am thankful for the pile of laundry and ironing
 Because it means I have clothes to wear.

 I am thankful for weariness and aching muscles at the end
 of the day Because it means I have been able to work.

 I am thankful for the alarm that rings early in the
 morning hours Because it means I am alive.

Subj:     Pregnant Turkey (S511b)
          From: hellgunner50 on 11/5/2006

 Last year at Thanksgiving, my mom went to my sister's house
 for the traditional feast.  Knowing how gullible my sister
 is, my mom decided to play a trick.  She told my sister that
 she needed something from the store.

 When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of the oven,
 removed the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen, and inserted it
 into the turkey, and re-stuffed the turkey.  She then placed
 the bird(s) back in the oven.

 When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the turkey out
 of the oven and proceeded to remove the stuffing.  When her
 serving spoon hit something, she reached in and pulled out
 the little bird.

 With a look of total shock on her face, my mother exclaimed,
 "Darci, you've cooked a pregnant bird!"

 At the reality of this horrifying news, my sister started to
 cry.  It took the family two hours to convince her that
 turkeys lay eggs!

 Yep..................SHE'S A BLONDE!

Subj:     Thanksgiving Reflection (S460)
          From: darrell94590 on 11/22/2005

 For most people, Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on what
 we've been given and savor the scents of crisp autumn days
 and pumpkin pie.

 For me, it's a little more complicated.

 One November afternoon when my daughter was in kindergarten,
 I picked her up after school. She bobbed out to the car and
 crawled into the back seat.

 "What did you do today?" I asked. She couldn't wait to tell
 me.

 "We learned that boys are different from girls," she chirped.

 Looking into the rearview mirror, I could just see the top
 of her head.

 "My teacher told us that boys have a thing the girls don't,"
 she added

 "Well, yes they do..." I said cautiously.

 I couldn't think of anything else to say, so we were quiet
 for a moment. Then she piped up again. "That's how girls
 know that boys are boys," she said. "They see that thing
 that hangs down and they know that he is a boy."

 I mentally calculated the distance home. Our five-minute
 commute already felt like an hour.

 "Did you know that when the boys see a girl they puff up?"
 My palms were beginning to sweat. "Um...well..."

 I was still searching for something new to say, to change
 the subject, when she asked, "Why do the girls like the
 boys to have those things?" Well I didn't know what to
 say. I mean, what woman hasn't asked herself that
 question at least once?

 "Oh, well...um..." I stammered.

 She didn't wait for my answer. She had her own. "It's
 cause it moves when they walk and then the girls see
 that and that's when they know they are boys and that's
 when they like them. Then the boy sees the girl and he
 puffs up, and then the girl knows he likes her, too.
 And then they get married. And then they get cooked."

 That last part confused me a bit, but on the whole I
 thought she had a pretty good grasp on things.

 As soon as we got home and I pulled into the garage,
 she hopped out of the car, fishing something out of
 her school bag.

 "I drew a picture," she said. "Do you want to see?"

 I wasn't sure I did, but I looked at it anyway. I had
 to sit down.

 There, all puffed up so to speak, looking mighty
 attractive for the ladies, was a crayon drawing of
 a great big Tom Turkey. His snood, the thing that
 hangs down over his beak, the thing that female
 turkeys find so irresistible, was magnificent. His
 tail feathers were standing tall and proud.

 She was a little offended that I laughed so hard at
 her drawing, and I laughed until I cried. But when
 I told her I loved it - and I did - she got over her
 pique.

 That was the end of that, for her anyway. But I'm not
 so lucky.

 Every year I remember that conversation.

 And to be honest, I haven't looked at a turkey, or a
 man, the same way since.

Subj:     Gratitude (S566b)
          by Melody Beattie
          From: ginafm on 11/21/2007
 Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
 It turns what we have into enough, and more.
 It turns denial into acceptance,
 chaos to order, confusion to clarity.
 It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home,
 a stranger into a friend.
 Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today,
 and creates a vision for tomorrow.
