    JJP, please get the message to Mr. O'bama that the people want a big inaugural celebration. He thinks that he shouldn't have one because so many people are going through hard times. Please let him know that we do need some cheering up and there's no better way to do it.

    After the last eight years, I am thankful for a president who knows what a compound sentence is(see yesterday's presser).

    T.
    ps. Can you end a sentence with 'is'?

    Happy Thanksgiving to all my JJP family. I am so glad I've found you all. Never met ya, but I feel like I know ya.

    Town and your wicked sense of humor.

    GLH and your oxygen mask (deep breaths, DEEP BREATHS!!)

    Rikyrah with your always thoughtful posts and pics.

    CPL and Craig always bringin' the knowledge.

    Even D. with your contrarian self... You definitely keep this from being an echo chamber!

    And most of all to Jack (Baratunde) and Jill (Cheryl) for keeping this thing going!
