Thanksgiving update.

We will be taking a break this Thursday from our usual programming to enjoy some family time and a delicious feast. I encourage you to do the same. Have a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving, and remember to celebrate family and friendships this year. We would be nothing and nowhere without them.

(But if you're looking for some holiday recommendations, I highly recommend marathoning the James Bond films on Amazon Prime Video. If action isn't your thing, you can never go wrong with classic comedies like Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with John Candy and Steve Martin or Mrs Doubtfire with Robin Williams. A good family movie is a good choice. Enjoy!)
