Today is Thanksgiving. So be thankful and give thanks. At least according to Wiki that is what everyone does when we sit down at the table to eat our Thanksgiving feast. Two birds that are giving thanks this year are the ones that President Bush pardoned, saying, "You cannot take the heat and you are definitely going to stay out of the kitchen."

Additionally, we the people get to vote on the name of the turkeys, www.whitehouse.gov/holiday/thanksgiving/2007.

Yes turkeys, there are two pardoned turkeys, "in case the original turkey becomes unavailable for the president to pardon" though we're not sure what that means. Past turkey names have been:

2003: Stars & Stripes
2004: Biscuit & Graver
2005: Marshmallow & Yam
2006: Flyer & Fryer

This year's running includes:
Wing & Prayer
May & Flower
Gobbler & Rafter
Wish & Bone
Truman & Sixty
Jake & Tom

The winner looks to be May & Flower.
