00:00Tell me, anybody remember what day this is?

00:07I don't even know what month it is.

00:10It's Thanksgiving.

00:12Oh, great. We sure got a lot to be thankful for this year.

00:18You know, I remember back in Kansas.

00:21Did I ever tell you I come from Kansas?

00:25When I was a kid back on the farm, Thanksgiving was a big day.

00:30It took Mother about a week, ten days to get ready for it.

00:33I could still see Mother in the kitchen turning out pumpkin pies with a crusted melon in your mouth.

00:40Cakes, chocolate and vanilla icing.

00:44Then about four o'clock in the afternoon we'd all sit down.

00:47Father would say grace and we'd pitch in.

00:50Turkey with cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes with giblet gravy.

00:56Plum pudding and hard sauce.

00:58Knock it off. What are you trying to do?

01:00Yeah, what are you trying to do? Drive us nuts?

01:04Making us remember things like that?

01:06Keep remembering them.

01:08Those good things about home and family.

01:12Things like Thanksgiving.

01:14Because then when Comrade's son starts hammering at you guys about how good the Red Idea is

01:20and how stinking America is, you can look him right in the eye and laugh at him for the liar he is.

01:26I'm sorry. I should have known.

01:28Forget it, Merrill.

01:31Well, it may not be turkey with all the fictions, but it's still Thanksgiving.

01:39Heavenly Father, bless this food, such as it is, and this day.

01:47We have much to be thankful for.

01:51We're men living together who have learned to trust each other and to suffer together

01:59and have learned to share the good and the bad together.

02:03There is no one among us who would take advantage of his friends

02:07nor seek to benefit by their misfortune.

02:11For this, we give thee thanks. Amen.
