Thanksgiving has never seemed like

Thanksgiving has never seemed like a very Asian or Asian-American holiday. But it's a chance to sell things, so the 99 Ranch Market will sell roasted turkeys instead of the usual ducks and chickens, and they'll throw in a big tray of chow mein. In case that wasn't enough, mom fired up the hot pot with all the fixings, too. Aunt brought over a nice bottle of 1986 Lafite Rothschild, which is definitely smoother than my usual $5 Trader Joe's special, but I can't really say that I appreciated the difference.

Thanksgiving football games would be more fun if the Cowboys and Lions didn't stink so bad. It was fun to see USC hammer Notre Dame, though. The difference in skill level between Carson Palmer and Carlyle Holiday was ridiculous. Don't try to run the West Coast Offense with an option quarterback. That is all.
