a time to give thanks...



Seeing as tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I thought it would be a good a time as any to list all the things I'm thankful for...

  • TiVo, of course
  • Rick Dees no longer being on the radio here in L.A.
  • Tito's Tacos
  • Getting to see my family more
  • Trader Joe's fruit leathers (in particular Granny Smith Apple and Strawberry)
  • 80 degree weather, clear blue skies, bright California sunshine... all at the end of November
  • The return of college basketball
  • Being able to read the Sunday L.A. Times again
  • Swiffers
  • R. Kelly continuing to expand the Trapped in the Closet saga so I have something to giggle at
  • IdentityCraft, custom furniture at a discount price
  • LaDanian Tomlinson, fantasy foorball stud
  • Whoever started this "just leave your hair messy looking, it's cool" look
  • My Name is Earl, the funniest new sitcom on television
  • The swings at Santa Monica beach
  • People who take Spanish classes while on "vacation"
  • Zankou's Chicken
  • NFL Sunday Ticket
  • Snickers, because they really satisfy you
  • The White Shadow finally coming out on DVD
  • The Sports Guy finally shutting the hell up about the damn Patriots
  • Any day when I get to sleep in
  • Entertainment Weekly
  • Cheez-Its (but not Cheese Nips because they're too racist)
  • Cheeky British sayings
  • Cranberry Black Cherry flavored Juice Squeeze drinks
  • And all in all, just being happy and content with life...
Ok, your turn!

Racism aside, Cheese Nips leave a strange aftertaste, compared to Cheez-Its (which leave a certain comfortable, lingering melange of saltiness and lard.) There's something oddly pungent about Cheese Nips, like they're desperately trying to access the forbidden unami regions, yet fail miserably.

Don't ask how or why I know - I'm a Cheez-It man through and through. Combos may be better, though.
