Happy Thanksgiving

[Ben]

Happy belated turkey day to all! I would have said as much last night, but the turkey gods were angred at the death of so many of thier followers, and made the power go out here all night.

Ben, are you confusing Columbus Day with the American Thanksgiving, ia that the Canadian Thanksgiving or do you really not like Columbus?

[Ben]

Noooo, it was just teh Canadian Thanksgiving. I can pretend we named out turkey Columbus before we ate him if you like though.

Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada. Traditionally, it has been a time to give thanks for a bountiful harvest. While there was an underlying religious element in the original celebration, Thanksgiving today is primarily identified as a secular holiday.

Currently, in Canada, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October and in the United States, it is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Thanksgiving in Canada falls on the same day as Columbus Day in the United States.
