    Happy Thanksgiving to everyone at TOD! I wrote a long post this morning that disappeared into the netherworld, so I’ll just say I hope everyone here has a blessed day with family and friends. Nerdy Wonka, a very special thanks to you for maintaining this isle of sanity when the rest of the country seems to be insane!

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

    Thanks Nerdy for keeping this place a safe and welcome haven, no matter how long we are gone, when we just lurk or comment. Ms. Chips, thank you forever and ever. Miss you bunches. TODers, you are the best. You are funny, serious, engaging, knowledgeable, kind, understanding and caring. Thank you. Hope everyone spends this day safe and well. Always and always.

    I am here in Miami experiencing my first Thanksgiving on the US main land. I always view on tv the congested Thanksgiving Eve traffic in the USA. Yesterday we experienced it up close. What a time! But we are thrilled to be in the US for this occasion.

    Apologies for being so late with my wish - I blinked a couple of times and the day disappeared before I could sign on. 😦

    Sure hope everyone celebrating has had (is having) a harmonious 2017 Thanksgiving, enjoying good family &/ friendly interactions.
    Blessings to all TODobots & friends as we live through these perilous times while working, and longing, for better days!

    My thoughts go out to the families and friends of these brave sailors. My heart aches for them. As the wife of a retired submariner myself, I can’t imagine the grief they must all feel. They will never retrieve their loved ones. This is the scenario that we all dread if you are a sailor or a loved one of someone in the silent service. RIP.

    In this exclusive excerpt from his searingly emotional new memoir, Promise Me, Dad, the former Vice President recounts his last Thanksgiving with late son Beau.

      “I kept seeing the little “Forever Wild” house, undermined by the powerful indifference of nature and the inevitability of time, no longer able to hold its ground; I could almost hear the sharp crack as its moorings failed, could envision the tide washing in and out, pulling at it relentlessly and remorselessly until it was adrift on the water, then swallowed up by the sea.”

      Joe has a way with words, so beautiful and so sad.

    According to Kyle Griffin , cheato is golfing with Tiger Woods now. Really, Tiger?

    • 64 jacquelineoboomer
      November 24, 2025 at 12:21 pm

      I think Tiger still lives in Florida … maybe before a couple of years ago, he also golfed in cheato’s area. Or trump sucked him in somehow, to play with him today. Ugh.

        November 24, 2025 at 12:51 pm

        I think this is yet another way to get back at PBO by showing him that he can golf with Tiger also. There is an evil motive in everything done by this sexual predator in the White House.

      Tiger Woods also golfed with the #Dotard in Dec of 2016.
      There was a story some days ago saying that Tiger was designing a Golf Course in Dubai for the Dotard.
      I don’t why. Tiger knows better. But whatever.

      Its too bad that Trump doesn’t believe in science or global warning because if he did he’d know that a category 5 hurricane combined with a typhoon wrapped around a tsunami is headed his way and it goes by the name Mueller.
