What if it's seen as more of a political celebration than a harvest celebration? Like a rejection of their colonial masters?

What could turn Thanksgiving from a strictly American holiday to a western hemisphere centric holiday? Thoughts? PODs?

I say Minneapolis. Minneapolis lost the bid for 1948, 1952 and 1956. A smaller metro area (With Saint Paul) could host the relatively small amount of countries that could participate in those Olympics.

By doing what us Viking fans do whenever the Packers and Bears play each other..... Hope for an attrition-filled tied game. (I made it less ambiguous because I remembered some of you Eurofolks use the word "draw")

Oh, you mean the contest where the best baseball players from Cuba, Mexico, Venezuela, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, the Spanish Caribbean, Francophonic and Anglophonic North America play in the world's top league to determine who the best collection of players from or who have...

And in American, I mean USAmerican, not the American supercontinent.

Let's take it to chat. I'll tell you why the West Indian-American experience is nothing like the African-American experience.

New Beetle.

And if that happened here, they'd simply send replacement buses to finish the route. Your premise doesn't hold water.

And any train derailments can be ameliorated by a bus.

When the blue line failed in our area, they simply supplied us with blue line buses. Your transit authority sucks, no offense.

If my car breaks down, I can't simply depend on another car coming up the pipeline. I haven't saved up that much money yet. When I do, I'm buying a backup beater. However, if a bus breaks down, I can simply wait for the transit company to bring in another.

There's this thing called a "computer". They can do your planning for you. 1. It's all wheel drive, not all wheel stop. 2. Or I can live someplace where the infrastructure is conducive to civilization.

They still need to get fixed. My German-engineered car is getting fixed today and it won't be out of the shop until tomorrow. Meanwhile, I have to skip on getting groceries.
