Well, my thoughts on this thansgiving are both with you/Hubby and with
my family.

Yours for good luck in the future under economic circumstances that
would knock me for a loop..and mine for living in Massachusetts (where
the economy stinks...I was unemployed for 9 mnths but have found the
wonders of healthcare employment with my wife), for eggs are $1.20 and
milk is $1.99 for 1%, and gas has dropped to around $1.55 per gal.

Do me a favor...do send me the link...I'm seriously interested, not in
visiting, but in how people deal and stick up for their rights in your area.

Time for a Hawaiian President!

Happy Thanksgiving!
