To all my Canadian friends:




HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!


Today I'm counting my blessings in celebration with you instead of observing the Holiday That Must Not Be Named (you know, the C-word. Eesh).

What cheer, Canada!

I tend to rant on this, because I'm outraged that my country celebrates the life of such a man.

Oh... *light dawns* Well, he gave Britain potatoes and tobacco right? So at least that's something. Sort of. OK, not. :(

I think Sir Walter Raleigh gave Britain tobacco, but I'm not quite sure. I know John Lennon sings about it on the White Album. *g*

Columbus gave the Natives Smallpox. Bleh. The first WMD.
