With a Turkey in a Pear Tree

Wait, stop. I can see it, the diddly playing on your tongue, but don't do it. There is only two days left, and Santa's not watching yet. The department stores may have decked their fluorescently lit isle's, but don't be confused. There is another holiday awaiting your attention, and a very good one at that. Food, family, friends, and hopefully not the in-laws. Football games, cards, chatter, stuffing, all those little traditions that each family hold. Give Thanks-giving it's due respect, and abstain from all the December holidays for a little longer. Celebrate instead the history of America. Remember a better time, before the small pox blankets. Enjoy the break, and Happy Thanks-giving.
