Shopping on Thanksgiving?

It's not enough for some stores that have to put out their Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving,
now several stores have said they will start their big Christmas shopping sales on Thanksgiving night!

Both JC Penny and Macy's have said they'll open shopping the evening of Thanksgiving at 8:00 PM!

Jerky Turkey

Back in 1945 MGM and Tex Avery made a goofy cartoon about a pilgrim chasing around a turkey.

It was called Jerky Turkey!


Happy Thanskgiving!
