Season's greetings
Well we got there and there was a big sign and a chain across across the dump saying, "Closed on Thanksgiving." And we had never heard of a dump closed on Thanksgiving before, and with tears in our eyes we drove off into the sunset looking for another place to put the garbage.Read the whole thing (and sing along at the end) here.

Hope everyone out there has a "Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat..."

"on the other side, in the middle of the other side, away from everything else on the other side, in parentheses, capital letters, quotated,"
It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without you, Arlo.

This is our absolutely most cherished Thanksgiving tradition, stemming from ancient days in NYC when WNEW would play Alice's each year on Thanksgiving. Over the years, we've even gotten the kids to look forward to it and they sing along with the old hippies. Sadly, Arlo's point is more germane than ever, and as there are now three teen-aged children among the families that celebrate, it hits almost too close to home. But remember, you gotta sing loud if you wanna end war and stuff!!!
Thanks for posting this, Jack.

Wow.
Forgot that Arlo was once all skinny like that. Wasn't that about the same time Elvis was all fat and sh**.

It's annual ritual at WWP's abode to tune into KINK's annual airing of this song, always at noon on Thankgiving Day. They've been doing it for like 35 years or so. Good times!
