I wish that I had a theme going... A couple of pets were named when rescued, Joey the goofy Lhasa Apso and Pumpkin my gray tabby. The others have a Sci-Fi ring to them, Mulder, my son's Husky (lives with me...), Chewy (Chewbacca), my daughter's Cairn Terrier (also lives with me) and Sully my snowshoe cat is named…

I understand.... I don't blame you. I'm not even religious and can't imagine December without Christmas. I'm not a fair enough person to advocate getting rid of it... Sorry (without sarcasm).

No, but I don't ever go out on Black Friday. I'm too busy cleaning up after Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is not a christian holiday. I understand christmas and easter being a problem for you, but that is was is great about Thanksgiving. It is about family and food, sometimes football. I'm sorry if you are misinformed. If christians have co-opted it, I hadn't heard.

How do you dumpster cat litter? No snarc, just curious.

Thank you, my grey tabby is named Pumpkin. I was imagining something completely different.

It is an oil painting.

And personhood is NOT an objective line. Don't even try to pull this bull.

I was going to point the same frightening comment. I have childhood friends that have gone right-wing evangelistic. They blindly support Israel where most of my Jewish friends tend to be more even keel about it. The support of the evangelicals has end of the earth crap intertwined, so they really don't even care about…

No, but they do not deserve to be free.

Because a lot of these "white collar" criminals are just a sociopathic as a serial killer. They may have destroyed countless families. Also, they barely get a slap on the wrist as it is.

A lot of right wing people think that Colbert is really a right wing republican. My daughter knew one who did. I can't imagine how these people survive with that kind of stupidity.

I love Jim Gaffigan! Once my daughter & I were traveling through a gorge listening to a CD. I started laughing so hard I was taking the tight curves with my eyes closed and tears running down my face. My daughter had to turn off the CD so I wouldn't crash....

It is simple then, When it's hard for you to shoulder sad remarks, just walk away and do not type stupid stuff.

I am still focused on Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving is my FAVORITE holiday. I started a little late this year, I just organized the spreadsheets for guest lists and menu/grocery items. This year I have revamped the menu, I am keeping the core recipes and changing out the sides. I am completely crazy this time of year.

TOO LATE!!! I have already started drinking eggnog and rum! Help me!

I love where you went with this.... Maybe next Saturday night blog should be about taking a weak thought to it's most ridiculous conclusion.

So sorry for your pain.

this is my granddaughter with my little rescue Chihuahua!

I was standing in line for the original Star Wars movies.... You bet I was thrilled to show them Star Wars! And they are the biggest fans now! They are also Beatles fans.
