Columbus doesn't. Columbus and crew celebrate by holding a dinner, giving thanks for their safe arrival. Embarrassment ensues when every Indian brings maize, and nobody brings pumpkin pie. 1620 - Pilgrim men invent sport of football to avoid helping clean up after Thanksgiving dinner. 1671 - First embarrassing drunken relatives at Thanksgiving dinner, as Captain John Smith's parents tell Pocahontas the "hilarious" old "I got lost in the maize" joke for the hundredth time. 1701 - At a historic Thanksgiving dinner, Dutch settlers unveil historic "Indians Give Us All Of Their Land Treaty." Due to an unfortunate oversight, the Indians are left off of the invite list, and the treaty is signed without them. 1776 - Excited that his British in-laws finally agreed to meet him for Thanksgiving dinner, silversmith Paul Revere rides through Boston announcing the news. Unfortunately, many colonists misinterpret his cry "the British are coming!" as a warning, leading to the Revolutionary War. 1812 - At an international Thanksgiving dinner, King George of England, still hurting from losing the Revolutionary War, challenges United States President James Madison to "best 2 out of 3." 1860 - At a Senate Thanksgiving dinner, the seven-year-old son of Alabama's Senator Richard Applebee insults the Senators from Massachusetts, New York, and Pennsylvania, sparking the Civil War. The tradition of the "children's table" is instituted in 1861. 1903 - Canada steals idea of Thanksgiving holiday, placing it in October, so they can say it was their idea first. 1928 - To commemorate "our nation's greatest era of prosperity that will last forever and ever," President Herbert Hoover dumps ceremonial ten thousand turkeys into the Potomac River. 1929 - Following the Great Stock Market Crash, thousands of men go Turkey Diving in the Potomac River. 1957 - Declaring her spicy stuffing "a communist threat to undermine my health via heartburn," Senator Joe McCarthy has his wife placed under arrest as a Soviet saboteur. 1969 - The world's largest Eat-In event goes sour. Thousands of hippies start having bad trips when bad "brown gravy" gets passed around. 1991 - When Dan Quayle takes ill on Thanksgiving; a turkey is sworn as Vice President for three days. No change is noticed. 1997 - Strong natural tranquilizer tryptophane is discovered in turkey. A Colombian cartel immediately starts selling "pure" turkey on the streets for $500 an ounce. Turkey farmers get involved in drive-by shootings, and the U.S. government declares a national fowl emergency. 2002 - America is on a terrorist alert. It is now against the law to stuff a turkey since anyone is suspicious of hiding explosives. George W. signs this law into Congress, during a patriotic speech he defends this decision claiming "the evil doers are just looking for any opportunity to show up at your dinner table." This Thanksgiving take a real good look at your relatives...and report any suspicious behavior to the CIA, FBI or your local police...who cares if it's grandma...it's your duty as an American... ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 11:13:41 -0800 From: Bill <bleahy@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: ThanksGiving are you referring to those of us that run with our feet...or those of you who have a 300 that actually runs? bill of bill's basketcase of a 57 300 / kennewick washington ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 4 Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 11:44:38 -0800 From: "Larry Carrel" <300fan@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: 300 Club question There is a lady in western Kansas who has been helping me with some genealogy questions, and during our discussions I found out that she has a 1957 Windsor that needs a rear window. I am pretty sure she means the back glass, not a side window. Does anyone know of one that is available that could be picked up a reasonable distance from there. Thanks for any leads.

They have Neon clocks 11" in diameter with a Chrysler 300 E on it. The background is a generic with "built exclusively by American Motors" and 1956 on it, but the car is an "E". Pink Neon surronds it and it's only $20.00. Looking at it, it would be simple to take off the cover, and hands and put your "Brute's" photo on it. Face is 8" in diameter. They also have a 1960 Chevy version, so if you're gonna' put your own photo on it, get the Chebbie one and get it out of the market!! Rene Kroeger found them and called me. 300 l'y, Ray ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Your use of Yahoo!
