thanksgiving I don't sleep much, let alone take a day off from the online fun, but Thanksgiving is one day I normally kick my feet up and enjoy. I have so much to be thankful for in life and I am sure all of you do too.

What is the history of Thanksgiving in United States?
The initial "Thanksgiving" feast, held in 1621, was really a traditional English harvest celebration. The Pilgrims shared it with the Native Americans because they had taught the colonists to plants crops and hunt wild game. Without the Native Americans, the Pilgrims may not have survived the harsh winter and been able to celebrate their first harvest of plentiful crops in the New World. The colonists' first harvest feast lasted for three days. Food was served all at once, instead of in courses, so people ate whatever they pleased in the order that they desired. The more important members at the feast were given the best pieces of meat, while the rest of the diners ate whatever was closest to them. Since the Pilgrims didn't use forks or plates, they ate their meal straight off the table with spoons, knives or their fingers. They used large napkins to wipe their hands and also wrapped it around food when it was too hot to hold.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my wife and kids for putting up with this hobby. I would like to thank all the staff that help out around here. (way too many to name, but I am so appreciate of all of them and their passion) The second most important part of the team is you guys reading this, without all of you, there would be no community. Trust me, I would still do it even if I had nobody around to read it. I do that already in the shower, I am almost ready for American Idol. Right! Lastly, I want to thank all the companies out there for making all this cool gear we get to talk about!

I will most likely post more tonight and maybe some tomorrow night, but I plan to go PC/Email free for most of the day tomorrow to spend time with my family.

Have a Great Thanksgiving and Good Luck on Black Friday!
