Oh, Thanksgiving. The splendors of cream cheese, the dance macabre of salt and sugar. Actually I really like Thanksgiving. I like the idea of doing nothing but eating, and nowadays, shopping as well. I suppose it's what people have always done around this time of year. The native Americans don't celebrate Thanksgiving and why should they? I grew up with Indian kids; I love their cultures and sympathize with their misgivings. The Indians are so wild and lovely and intelligent and the European immigrants have treated them unfairly. These peoples continue to share what little possessions they have, they give their time and effort to anyone who asks, they are honest. I wish our mutual histories could have been different.
