Starting a new tradition and working in a soup kitchen tomorrow where one of my niece's lives (about 3 hrs from here). Sure beats cooking and I like the winos there.
A happy Thanksgiving to all who are participating!

<<"I'll show you my hands", he said. There were rivers and valleys In them, and veins that stood Like iron pipes - as old as rocks. Dry and arid - hard broken nails; The claws of a withered monkey. The bones stood almost uncovered, Worn beneath transparent flesh. And then he made a fist. And broke the glass and door and wall As though they were paper. And put his hands back on the table As though he'd never lifted them at all.>>

I'm headed to my mom's place. With both my addict brothers there, it has that soup kitchen ambiance, sort of ;-)

Remember, if they offer to share the turkey baster, rinse it out with Clorox first!!!

I was bringing some food to the poor, but when I got there the food was gone.

Hope y'all had fun; we were 200 miles away (that's 8511 kilomegers, or something) at my brother's house. *WE* had fun. And food. Lord, did we have food...

"Josiah Wilbarger, brother of the author of 'Indian Depredations in Texas', was one of the earliest American settlers in Texas. Wilbarger and a party of five others were riding near present-day Austin when they came under heavy attack. Wilbarger was scalped while still conscious and left for dead. He survived and lived for eleven years with his skull exposed. The attack on Wilbarger's party was the beginning of a bloody era in Central Texas that lasted until around 1846, when Texas was annexed to the United States. " http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/exhibits/indian/early/page3.html
Haven't been able to figure out exactly where this happened, but Wilbarger settled about 4 miles east of my place.
