Happy Thanksgiving and Buckle Your Seatbelts!

Happy Thanksgiving! And, if you've been enjoying the pre-Thanksgiving "calm before the storm," all I can say is: enjoy it while it lasts! ;)

Starting just a little over 24 hours from now are the biggest 30 or so shopping days of the year. And, that along with other things, means that the battle over Christmas will only heat up even more. That's what The Christmas Watch is here for.

Turkey Day?

Okay, I confess, this is about Thanksgiving, not Christmas. Sue me.

I just wanted to share that today, while I was at ACC (Austin Community College, where I take Chemistry for both high school and college credit), this guy was talking on the phone, and I heard him say something like, "Okay, so what are you doing for - ". He paused, "...turkey day?" It seemed like he was going to say thanksgiving, but decided that it wouldn't be appropriate to mention thanks to God. Rather, one should call it "Turkey Day," so as not to insult anyone.

I'm going caroling soon (in ASL, what's more), and all the songs are about Jesus, except "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," but that's just one in about ten, and theres nothing about Santa or Rudolph or anything like that, plus, it has the words "good tidings," which are straight out of the Bible.
