Pre-Thanksgiving Thanks.

Being Thanksgiving Eve, I'd like to give thanks to things that aren't on the same tier as family, friends, and pharmaceuticals.
I've thought about this long and hard, and have come up with a short list I hope you'll find insightful. I'm pre-thankful for:
- The grocery cart fetchers on Thankgiving Eve — for it is you who allow us to abandon our empty carts like used garbage, and still manage to smile and wave as we drive off. I wonder what you call people like us? Assholes is my guess.
- Get Rich Buying Real Estate Infomercials — for you are the only thing that can get me to sleep after I've woken in the middle of the night for a glass of water only to be greeted by a Girls Gone Wild infomercial.
- Sushi.
- Garlic.
- Steve Jobs and the entire Apple organization.
- The mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
