This is Bob “Pilgrim” Hope and I wanna tell you ladies and gentlemen, I am really excited about this Thanksgiving.

How about the huge turkey that Kathlene is going to make this year. Won't that be something? I haven't seen a bigger turkey since I went to Bingo with Jean McCarty and the caller was calling the numbers too fast!

And how about that delicious pumpkin pie. Jerry will of course have the biggest slice. I haven't seen anyone take a bigger slice since Larry McCarty at the last DMGC. Isn't that wild? 

And how about that Swine Flu epidemic? Isn’t that something? I haven’t heard that much uncomfortable coughing since Rick McCarty ’s physical for the Detroit Medical Center . Isn’t that wild?

And how about that whole 6 year old boy in a balloon debacle. Wasn't that wild? I haven't seen anything that staged before since the McCarty Christmas drawing on live video cam last month. Wasn't that something?

And how about these young girls going crazy over that New Moon Movie with Vampires and Werewolves? Isn’t that wild?  I haven’t seen teenage girls scream like that since Roman Polanski left the country. Isn’t that something?

And how about those Detroit Tigers not making the baseball playoffs after being in 1^st Place most of the season.   Wasn’t that something?  I haven’t seen anybody choke that bad since Kelly McCarty tried to eat a Big Mac in one bite. Isn’t that wild?

And how about those Northwest Airlines pilots missing the runway in Minnesota by 150 miles. Wasn’t that something? I haven’t seen somebody that far off course since Mike McCarty rode his bike around the block.  Isn’t that wild?

And how about that Ryan McCarty being in the delivery room, wasn’t that wild. The nurses said they haven’t seen someone that useless in the hospital since Butterscotch Jack retired from Harper-Grace.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving Ladies and Gentlemen.
