Just when I thought I'd heard it all:
"But what got the Internet abuzz was Myth No. 11: "Thanksgiving is a happy time." It was followed by "Fact: For many Indian people, 'Thanksgiving' is a time of mourning ... a bitter reminder of 500 years of betrayal returned for friendship.""
From the reservation though:
"But one Seattle-area tribe says Thanksgiving is not somber on the reservation but a time to see friends and family, as it is for other Americans."

Refuse to read Fox News? Tough.

you can either be a pathetic loser who seeks out and soaks up depression like a dried up sponge or you can be thankful for life. Life is beautiful.
Beware of people that are depressed and try to depress you down to their level. Offer them a ride to the hospital, just to get away from them.

Bravo, Yeager. Sort of like Desiderata, my favorite philosophy summary.

I second that, Yeager!
Have as happy a time as you feel you should!
Otherwise enjoy your depression!
