Reflecting on the last year I feel that Thanks is Due to those around me as well as to my God for intersesion. I'm sure the second part is going to cause issue but what the hell go for it right?

My wife .... is a saint. She allows me to do things that most sane folks would not think about. Most of the time she actually supports me doing these things ..... of course I have a good insurance policy! She entertains me too. (Plays an awsome electric bass.)

My Daughter, She's Sweet 16 and well I don't even want to know if she's been Kissed ... Not my business and well .... She is a good student and an awsome musician. She is actually a good person too. Guess she takes after her mother. Real pretty but never been on a real date either.

My staff, Crap, Who would want to take over the job filled by the 1/2 boss so the 1/2 boss can go play around the world at being a linehand? More work and the same pay. Hope I can give good bonuses this year.

My God, What can I say ... My life insurance policy has never kicked in. My family has not left me and we have not gone bankrupt while I play. Guess I'll have to try that Afganistan project. I'd sure like my wife to be able to collect.

Well Bob,
I'll be 60 next May, and....let me blow smoke up my own ass...I don't look it or feel it. And I'm Damn Thankful for that. Very Thankful for good health and stamina.

Extremely thankful for my INCREDIBLE Wife of 38 years, and my Beautiful 28 year old Daughter.

Oh yeah....
I dig on my "Grand dog" too!!

I'm also So Very Thankful to... "Be an American".

Sweet sixteen and never been on a real date. Sounds like a sensible girl to me. It's all changed from the past. There's no real point in rushing into marriage any more. She'll find her own path through life.

I get the feeling you're itching to go travelling again. I say do it. Life should be fun. I'm sure that deep down your lady doesn't mind, and if anything might enjoy the peace and quiet. :)

Ah, I haven't been around in awhile but I had to laugh at this one.

RWD, good luck with that daughter of yours. I'd be proud too. I know I was with mine 10 years ago at that age.

But remember, never let her date a guy that wears a kilt!

Do I know anything about that? No! Just heard stories!

Sorry Clive, but I had to throw that in!

To all,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Remember the most important people (my opinion) whether you agree or not, Are the ones doing what they are ASKED to do!

Like I say when my wife and I are together at dinner, "Please Lord, take care of those, that take care of us".

And a reminder to all! 'No matter how bad you think you have it, there is ALWAYS some poor SOB out there that has it a whole lot worse'. I know, I've been there. So give thanks. Moe
