Yeah, I know. When I was a kid I could have sworn there was a period between Halloween and Christmas that was dominated by turkies, Indians and Pilgrims. Now it goes straight from Ghost and Frakenstien to Santa and Christmas Trees.
As for it being a made up holiday, is there such thing as a naturally occuring one?
Happy Thanksgiving everybody. To all nonUSers other than YIYF, happy regular Thursday, don't work too hard ;)
