I'm thankful that the year is almost over and most of us lived through it.

I'm thankful for my wife, and kids.

I'm thankful for good friends who always know just when to call or stop by.

I'm thankful for our boys kicking **** and keeping us safe.

I'm thankful for my home and all of the goodies shoe-horned into it.

And finally, I am thankful for the shot at many more Turkey Days to come!

Happy Thanksgiving guys!
Cheers
Go BIG or go home!

    That's about it but I'm just extra thankful for those I guess.

    My family
    My new family-to-be
    The all too soon end of my formal education
    Having a comfortable enough life that allows me to worry about audio gear and other meaningless, frivilous crap, not whether or not I will make rent or eat today.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Selfishly thankful that I am not in The U.S. Marines, U.S. Army, U.S. Army Reserve, or Army National Guard.

    Lot of other things I am thankful for, but they pale in magnitude compared to my SELFISH thankfulness mentioned above.

    I'm thankful to have the privileges that come with living in the USA. I'm also thankful for the closer relationship I can have with my Creator since He gave His Son to die on the cross. I'm thankful that I have a shot at having a comfortable life like Shizelbs mentioned. I'm also thankful for all the opportunities I have to help people, to serve God, and to make a difference; I just pray that I take advantage of them.

    I'm also thankful that George Bush won the elections and that we have a military made up of individuals who are willing to put their life on the line in the name of freedom.

    I'm thankful for my general health and the many things that I am able to enjoy, such as audio, piano, badminton, and a wonderful comaradarie with my friends.

    I have much to be thankful for.

    Thanksgiving doesn't mean much to me but it always is hard to be without your family on major holidays. So I'm thankful that mine will be here for Christmas which has always been about being with your family.
