No problem. Next time I want to cause trouble I'll make sure I do it
properly so you'll see what I mean!!!!!!

All the best to all!

Oops - I'm sorry, then - it just made me laugh when I first saw it. It
must
be me that has the devious mind...

Just for once in my life I wasn't!!!!!!

Look, if I'd wanted to cause trouble I'd have been needling people in a
way
that I haven't in this one. I'm quite good at it if I want to.

But for once I didn't.

When a person asked the other day the meaning of Thanksgiving I didn't
take
it to be quite so innocent. Certainly any of the erudite members of
this
list know how to do a google search on "Thanksgiving".
So why ask a group of bashers the meaning of Thanksgiving? It looks
like a
softball question waiting to be hit out of the park. Naturally some of
the
severe critics of George Bush, may I say, "Haters", went to town. Abuse
of
the indians, turkey slaughters, etc. But they do throw in some lip
service
to "humility" etc. How gracious! Of course, I didn't hear the taboo
word,
G-D, mentioned in the Thanksgiving explanation, as G-D is of course,
passe
in these modern times.

You know, I'm inclined to agree with the first two sentences - Mathew
is, I
suspect, an incorrigible stirrer (and long may he continue to be so) -
but
why rise to the bait every single time? Lighten up - that's an American
phrase, isn't it?
