Remember:
- Tryptophan is a myth
- The Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys always play on Thanksgiving. A surprise to some, the Lions have been doing it for longer (1934 vs 1966). Is it wrong to ask for a Redskins-Cowboys game on Thanksgiving?
- 17% of the turkey eaten each year is eaten on Thanksgiving Day (46 mil/262 mil birds).
- Enjoy your turkey because we may have a slight salmon shortage due to this jellyfish attack on a salmon farm in Northern Ireland. Well, not a shortage except for maybe briefly in London, but that is still a crazy story.
- Skip the traffic of Black Friday. Save your shopping until the Saturday before Christmas, when the majority of Christmas shopping is really done. Or do it online on Cyber Monday, the Monday following this Black Friday.
- Lastly, get ready for an expensive day:
- “A Thanksgiving Day turkey dinner with side dishes and dessert will be 11% more expensive this year, the biggest annual increase since 1990, because of depleted frozen-turkey supplies and rising energy prices.” -American Farm Bureau Federation
- “Adjusted for inflation, the cost is $20.46, about 9% less than in the first survey in 1986.” – American Farm Bureau Federation
- Maybe I should think of picking up ThanksgivingFunFacts.com on FabulousDomains.com for $700. Nope, I’ll keep them on the blog…remember, be careful of the attractiveness of seasonal domains. Buy them off-season if you truly believe they are good.
