>>I'll have a great day, nodding to things I do NOT understand
I had a Thanksgiving like that with a bunch of liberals
My SIL's dad was an officer that fought the communists in Cambodia. He raised a strong, fine boy that married my daughter. And a strong, fine soldier for the US Army (if he would learn when to keep his mouth shut).
I won't worry about the food or politics tomorrow. I love Cambodian food, and Pop makes Barry Goldwater look like a liberal. He's fought communism. Personally. Up close.
He also has the hook-up on band-saw blades. When he saw some of my gear, he made it painfully clear that I would be dishonoring the family if I actually paid money for them, when he can supply them.
He's a neat old goat. We get along well. ;>)
