Thank your brother for his service. How's that tooth today Cincy?

Morning all. Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is Thursday, November 26th.

On this day in 1789 - U.S. President Washington set aside this day to observe the adoption of the Constitution of the United States.

1825 - The first college social fraternity, Kappa Alpha, was formed at Union College in Schenectady, NY.

1832 - Public streetcar service began in New York City.

1867 - J.B. Sutherland patented the refrigerated railroad car.

1940 - The ***** forced 500,000 Jews of Warsaw, Poland to live within a walled ghetto.

1941 - U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a bill establishing the fourth Thursday in November as Thanksgiving Day. In 1939 Roosevelt had signed a bill that changed the celebration of Thanksgiving to the third Thursday of November.

1942 - U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered nationwide gasoline rationing to begin December 1.

1943 - The HMS Rohna became the first ship to be sunk by a guided missile. The German missile attack led to the death of 1,015 U.S. troops.

1950 - China entered the Korean conflict forcing UN forces to retreat.

1973 - Rose Mary Woods, told a federal court that she was responsible for the 18-1/2 minute gap in a key Watergate tape. Woods was U.S. President Nixon's personal secretary.

Okay people, time to get up and get going! It's Thanksgiving but that doesn't mean there ain't things that need doing!

Mornin' All!

Happy Thanksgiving from the big house!

Mama was up all night making pies...... Pumpkin, apple and Cherry...... The cherry one looked like a work of art (arrrrre ). Just like one of the pictures in a recipe book.

I stole a pumpkin one and brought it to work. made for some decent breakfast.

11 hours to go until I get some turkey.......

Well keep your head out of my dark and stinky places and it won't smell so bad!
uh no comment
I shave!
REALLY
C'mon over here Eric and I'll take care of that for you! Seriously tho, just get it yanked. Quicker, less painful and cheaper than a root canal. Plus, you live in Ohio, you'll fit in better with less teeth!
ain't that the truth
