Happy Thanksgiving
I was about to post the ASCII art [1] turkey when I thought I'd better check
to see when I posted it last—last year [2], and back in 2008 [3] and 2006
[4]. A quick search for Thanksgiving ASCII art isn't showing much, but I did
find this one:

And yes, I've done the glazed ham for Thanksgiving [5].
I also noticed I used a variation of “Gobble gobble” as a title last year,
2008, 2004 [6] and 2002 [7].
Well … [Deep subject. —Editor] nothing like blogging for twenty years to make
fresh takes on Thanksgiving difficult.
I also don't think I can top last year's post about turkey drops [8], so I
think I'll just leave you with the wish to have a Happy Thanksgiving with
those you love, followed by a nice long nap as the tryptophan works through
your system.
