Feeling Thankful – a Top 5 List
23Nov2007
It is that time of year when millions of Americans get in cars, planes and trains and travel hours cross-country to eat turkey. In the spirit of Thanksgiving I thought I would offer up some things I am thankful for:
- Giada de Laurentiis – for re-awakening my interest in cooking. Or maybe I should say re-awakening my interest in watching cooking shows. Or maybe I should say re-awakening my interest in watching very attractive italian women on cooking shows.
- Daniel Craig – for proving that big ears are back in vogue, which means there is hope for all of us
- A 5 minute commute to work – for increasing my quality time. When I hear of all these people spending 30 minutes or more just to get to work, I am happy that my daily trips are only sometimes punctuated by delays.
- Berocca – for keeping me healthy. Some people say that this multivitamin is a hangover cure, but I take it daily and it definitely keeps me sharp. And if it does help recovery from the occasional heavy night all the better, especially with the Christmas season fast approaching.
- The US dollar – for fending off the currency markets and remaining strong in the face of adversity. OK, so this one is a joke. It is at times like this I wish I was earning Elbonian Klods.
