I'd hate to think that you believed we were celebrating 'escaping' your homeland today. The last thing you should think is that Thanksgiving is about exclusion. The tradition we celebrate is remembering the first decent harvest of the Pilgrims in the New World. In other words: "Hey! There's a good chance we'll all live to see the spring! I don't have to say goodbye to you, my friends!"

Today we stopped to remember all of the good parts of our lives and of the great things we have added to them in the last year. It makes me very happy to be able to add the Current to my list of things to be thankful for today. Some of my favorite music people in the world (yourself included) are getting to do what they love best, and I get to help out (a little) and enjoy the show.

I'm glad that you have found your own things to be thankful for and hope we can all only add to the list next year.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Being an American living in England; we've celebrated our Thanksgiving with friends here for the 5th year on the trot. Every year they get into it...the turkey, the pumpkin pie, and they always ask for my explanation of the history of Thanksgiving and what it means to us today....last year I put the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving DVD on. This year, we just got merry and had a good old time, the 14 of us. It's kinda cute, because they then go and brag to their friends that they were at a Thanksgiving 'do. :) Gobble! Gobble!
