It seems I've been on a wild goose chase (those who know me also know that I'm famous for those). This time the chase was for Thanksgiving decorations--specifically pilgrim hats to outfit the barnyard crew (Mr. Big and friends) for their Thanksgiving photo shoot. But wait--it seems that it's already Christmas. Thanksgiving has been by-passed, or more likely, eliminated, because signs of it are nowhere to be found, although the calendar says it's coming up in less than a week. What happened?
And now that I think of it, Thanksgiving got the boot a long time ago--I know, because I wrote about it years back and posted it on my previous blog when I still lived in Atlanta.
So, this ignoring of Thanksgiving is not new...ah...it must be a terrorist conspiracy--isn't everything? That's the impression one gets by listening to the news at least. Maybe the turkeys are staging a silent revolution so that fewer of them end up as dinner. If that's the case, they still have a lot of work to do, because everyone I know still does Thanksgiving--it just must be without decorations, because my research now and in the past shows that there is none to be had. Call Hallmark! Surely this is a major oversight and an opportunity not-to-be-missed.
