It’s good to be thankful

I'm going to eat you!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I can’t believe it is already that time of year when all we want to do is stuff our faces with lots and lots of turkey. Then we can just sit back relax and watch a good football game.  Of course the Cowboys and the Lions aren’t doing too well this year. So, instead of watching a football game I’ll probably just watch my father-in-law sleep on the couch and take pictures of his open, drooling mouth.

During this time of year I like to think about those things that I am thankful for.  And now, my Top Ten List of Things I’m Thankful For in 2008:

10.  My cat, Milo.  Every time I forget what pain is, you remind me.

9.  Tina Fey.  Thank you for being sexy AND smart.

8.  Jessica Simpson.  Thank you for being sexy and making ME feel smart.

7.  Whoever decided to put a slice of raw fish on some rice and then charge a sickeningly high price for it.

6.  Sarah Palin.  Thanks for opening your mouth and slitting the throat of the Republican party.

5.  Prison Break and Heroes.  Thanks for showing us how to drag out seemingly simple plots into never-ending black holes of ridiculous storylines and stupid twists.

4.  Twinkies

3.  My sister.  Thanks for having your baby and taking the pressure off me to produce grandchildren.

2.  Comedy.  Thanks for being a cruel and sexy temptress that no matter what I do, I can’t get enough of it.

1.  My wife.  Seriously, if I didn’t put her at number one I’d be in serious trouble.

Well, there you have it folks I hope you have a good Thanksgiving.  Be safe and don’t forget to come see a show when I come to your town.
