Happy Thanksgiving!

Tuesday, November 24, 2009 |



Friends,

I know how busy you and your loved ones will be this Thanksgiving holiday. The last thing you will be turning to will be my blog. I would like, however, to share with you a humorous quip on Thanksgiving from one of America's greatest late night comedians, Johnny Carson.

"Thanksgiving is an emotional holiday. People travel thousands of miles to be with people they only see once a year. And then discover once a year is way too often." ~ Johnny Carson

In a more serious and thoughtful vein, Phillip Brooks reminds us that even in these challenging economic times, we should be thankful for living in a wonderful country with outstanding people looking toward an exciting future.

"Stand up, on this Thanksgiving Day, stand upon your feet. Believe in man. Soberly and with clear eyes, believe in your own time and place. There is not, and there never has been a better time, or a better place to live in." ~ Phillips Brooks

Be safe. Drive carefully. We'll continue our Fresyes discussions Tuesday, December 1st.

Coming Soon. . .

1. Why not buy a house? We taxpayers are paying for it. 2. Diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey? 3. Fresno police should stay out of county islands.
