patriotism
i never feel more american than when im watching the thanksgiving day parade. 3 and a half million people line the streets to see it (which i would not do. a) i’m lazy but b) what a nightmare! mobscene and you cant see a thing) and 50 million people like me, watching it on NBC in their pajamas. it’s one of those things that one just DOES. apparently christopher meloni and bob saget are going to be in the parade, werd, but im excited because the cast of mary poppins is going to be in the parade! have i mentioned how AMAZING mary poppins was? honestly it was worth 100 bucks. you cant say that about a lot of broadway shows. but the musical was almost almost as good as the movie. you cant really beat julie andrews and dick van dyke, and i missed the cartoon animals playing soccer (more than i figured i would, i was kind of hoping to see that. the whole concept of jumping into a painting was mind-blowing and so enticing as a child. i guess it still is) but i can officially go on record and say that disney knows how to put on a SHOW.
anyway, happy thanksgiving. further to my last post, maybe it is against your religion, but put the history behind you and enjoy a day off with the rest of the country.
