50 Things to be Thankful For
November 27th, 2003 - 12:01 am
Morning wood
Beer chilling in the snow
Remembering the beer before the bottles explode
NYFD
Nipples
Ribeye steaks, seared and rare
Kisses
Loud parties
Quiet moments
Drawing yet another breath
Smith & Wesson & ammo
Beethoven’s F
Things to be Thankful For
VodkaPundit has his list. Not bad, but what’s this? A Denny’s Grand Slam after Last Call Hmmm. Every decent sized town in America has a Mexican kitchen open late, with all kinds of stuff, probably including an egg burrito in…
“Last Call”
What’s Last Call???
i live in New Orleans, we don’t use that term down here.
That was a good list Steven.
I’ll take two of everything.
Well, except for the bride. I hear more than one makes the other cranky.

VodkaPundit’s list. PS. I think he’s a breast man. Me too….

Stephen – A very Happy Thanksgiving to you and Melissa. I have been an “every day” reader for nearly a year and have enjoyed your commentary and the obvious love for each other that comes through your writing.
All the best, Terry Reynolds
That drink of which you speak that contains Absolut Citron, while no doubt tasty, is no martini.
A proper martini is made with gin. Preferably a good gin….but even that is not necessary.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Winning the Stanley Cup 3 times is even better… especially if you’re the hottest team in the NHL right now and have the world’s best goalie.
GO DEVILS!
Great list, even bereft as it was of any mention of P-51D Mustangs and The Green Bay Packers. Have a good one Amigo.
You forgot baseball — and any team that beats the Yankees.
The Leafs are just biding their time. Soon, the precious will be ours…
Damn, Paul beat me to what I was going to say. I know not of this “last call” thing. :-p
Mr. Green, et. al.,
I hope that you and yours have had a good day so far, and that you have a great dinner. (We went out for lunch… I don’t know what, if anything, we’ll have enough room for tonight.)
I haven’t been feeling too well today, but today is supposed to be the day where we put aside our angst and worries, and observe and celebrate this day, and while reflecting on the meaning of this occasion.
I hope that I can remember that today, and for this weekend.
And I hope that you, your family, and all of the other readers at your great site have an excellent day, and a pleasant, happy, and safe weekend as well…
Happy Thanksgiving, and God Bless!

Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud, loud music.
You did mention nipples, right?
Just checking.
You did, however, leave out “women in thigh length skirts and knee high boots”.
Yowza!
Cheese and DVDs.
Let’s get specific on that last.:)
Muenster and lebanon bolgona on honeywheat berry with butter while watching The Philadelphia Story on DVD.

Thanksgiving Wrap-Up
If you’ve wondered where I’ve been for the past few days, I have two words for you: tryptophan hangover. This year’s turkey knocked me out so thoroughly that I still I have a cup of tea at my side to…
I see you included cigars but what happened to the Grey Goose Vodka? Or the humidor for the cigars….might as well be thankful for it all and the ability to still buy it in America.

If you missed it last week, Stephen Green put up a list of things he is thankful for. I’m willing to bet that most males would concur….
