I give thanks that my body has mostly forgotten all about fucking. I give thanks that I don't have to impress anyone, anywhere, at anytime. I give thanks that we no longer have debtor prisons. I give thanks that I'm a coward and did not volunteer for Vietnam. I give thanks that Jesus was a drinker. I give thanks that my computer has not crashed yet again. I give thanks that you people out there are silly enough to read this. I give thanks that the Indians haven't demanded their country back. Yet. Happy Thanksgiving, all. You too, Lawrence.
