Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to every one!
One of our mentors sent out an e-mail to all the people involved on our team and it inspired me to post this, well mostly paraphrase what he said
Take some time today to "give thanks" to all those important people in your life and, of course, in FIRST who help you in this great competition.
Remember your mentors, college and adult, who give up huge amounts of personal time and sometimes even money to help your team/school.
Your Sponsors, without them no one would be here, don't forget that you can donate to CD and give a little "thanks" back to this great site.
Mentors, think about your students and all the experiences they give and new things they teach you each day.
Also don't forget about all the students who have come and gone from your team creating this great FIRST legacy.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

P.S Also take some time to think about all the US soldiers here and all over the world that are working everyday so we can enjoy these freedoms like thanksgiving, and also the Police, Fire and EMS departments that all have people working today and every holiday to make sure we are all safe and protected.

This year I am thankful for...

There are plenty of things to be thankful for, even in poor economic times. Serious or silly, post something for which you are thankful, and happy Thanksgiving!



This Thanksgiving I am thankful for...

College football
Fantasy FIRST
Billfred's puns
My friends and family

(not necessarily in that order.)

Re: This year I am thankful for...

I already posted this but...

I am thankful for this awesome CD community. I've met so many nice people over the years.

Also:
-Family (even though we're all in the same house right now and it is c-r-a-z-y...)
-Friends. They all mean so much to me
-The fact that it's -not- build season yet.
-Game hints- chumming for clues yet, anyone? (Dave, you're welcome!)
-Yes, even Billfred's puns.


Oh, and did I mention... IDK, my BFF Michelle?

Billfred's puns? But what about Jane's puns?

Hmm to be thankful for
- That my mommy is *currently* cancer free.
- That I have the best bff in the world.
- Like Dave, for the Rick Roll on Macy's Parade.
- The FIRST Community that has always been there for me
- That it is somewhat warm in Florida all year round Who need's cold?
- The 2009 Ice Game.

I'm sure there is more, but I've got to go cook!
