Now, regardless of your political leanings, I thought this was pretty cool:

I agree. I wish I was going to be in town on Thanksgiving... I would like to see that parade... hopefully someone around here will take a video and post it for all of us to see. Happy Thanksgiving!

I may just have to go to the park on Thursday now. I wonder if they'll let me bring gravy...

[cinder]

Well, marshmallow and yam will be there, I'm sure gravy would be welcomed.

I enjoyed this quote

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which in the past has been critical because presidential turkeys have been sent to a working farm rather than an animal sanctuary, praised the decision to send them to Disneyland.

"I don't suppose we could have asked for better than Disneyland and southern California," said Bruce Friedrich of PETA. "They'll have mental and physical stimulation as well as proper care and a nice climate."


Thank goodness that PETA is around to make sure Turkey's have proper mental stimulation plus it was down right cruel that a pardoned turkey's had been sent to a farm. But I bet this is all a ploy to get the pardoned turkey vote next election.

Hm. Don't they sell turkey legs in Frontierland? Look out Boys! You ain't as safe as you think!!!

[MattKid]

Marshmellow and Yam.... Turkey legs???

[munchiegurl]

Wonder how Peta is doing?

[cinder]

I'm doing well, thank you for asking.
