Thanks Mark, right back at you!

No travel plans for us, due to my work schedule we're having a quiet day here at the house. Coming home from work yesterday morning I did notice I-95 was wall-wall with the typical in a huge hurry select drivers ....y'all drive carefully out there.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! \:\)

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating it today! Having been exposed to Sweet Potato Pie and Green Bean Casserole by Tom Cumberland and his wife, all I have to say is - y'all be careful out there! Best wishes from the north.

Yes, I'd like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! I'm already thinking about the dressing and mashed potatoes I'll be filling up on later today. Oops, almost drooled on my keyboard.

I'd also like to give my thanks to this board and all the members who make it such a great place!

May the overindulgence in food not make us too slow to grab the Black Friday deals of our dreams!

Happy Thanksgiving! Drove out to the Morro Bay area last night to my Brother in laws for our family gathering, I'm sitting in his office reading my favorite forum, smelling the roasted turkey and stuffing cooking, listening to the kids and family, while looking out the window at the ocean on a beautifull day, it doesn't get much better than this. \:\)

Yes, God bless all you US-American's for giving us the tradition of NFL football midweek.

I cant get a price quote on something I sell from a US manufacturer because of the holiday, so I'm gonna watch the rest of the Lions-Packers game.....therefore, such as,

BTW Randy, you were the guy on AVS that suggested I check out the Axiom site for a local audition and now I'm a happy owner watching the NFL in 5.1 surround via Axiom. Thanks.

Have a great holiday folks.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We already had our day in Canada. This is perfect because my neighbor is American so I can go over to his place for a second round of roasted Walking Bird!

Anybody braving the Black Friday crowds? [Grampa Simpson]Back in my day, I used to enjoy it, but now its gotten to be such a big phenomenon that it's no fun anymore. I'm less and less patient in lines and fighting crowds in the stores and on the road. Waiting for 5 traffic signal cycles where usually it's 1 (at the most) is not my cup of tea.[/Grampa Simpson]

I was out and about this morning, not because of Black Friday, but I needed some dental floss and a crossword book that I've only been able to find at Rite Aid. I swung by Best Buy in the hopes that the crowds may have thinned, but, boy, was I wrong! No parking anywhere.

I used to work in retail and I hated Black Fridays. There is no way you'll get me up at 5am the morning after Thanksgiving anymore!

For some reason I woke up at 5:30 this morning, despite being up until after midnight. I don't really care about Black Friday. I think it's because I've been working on my blog (installed new blog software, playing with the plugins, have a ton of work to do on the appearance). I suppose it's good to have a reason to wake up in the morning, even if it's a bad one.

I also worked in retail. 7 years at Fred Meyer, and yeah, Black Friday was always insane.

On my work to work I passed by our one and only mall at 4:35 this morning and was astonished at the jam packed parking lots ... good thing I made the right turn to I-95 while the rest of the traffic was making the left into the mall.

No way, no how will I ever subject myself to that suicidal mess.

Agreed, BB. Especially since you can find better deals online, and often from the same stores a little closer to Christmas.
