Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is the day that we give thanks to our creator or higher thought processes for the the blessings that we have received for the past year. In spite of my decreased mental capacity, I have been able to do a lot of travel this past year: Ohio, Ireland and upcoming Florida. I plan on spending the day with my brother and his roommates eating turkey and watching football. Later on tonight, I plan on continuing the marathon of music. More on that later.

Here are a couple of clips that are quite topical for today. The first is a traditional telling of Alice's Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_7C0QGkiVo

The second is a clip from the old show WKRP in Cincinnati. To set up the clip, they had a stunt by dropping turkeys out of a helicopter. They just plummeted straight to the ground and spattered. The clip is regarded by TV Guide as the funniest ever uttered on TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FXSnoy71Q4
