Hello:

Turn 5 is out.

I need to travel on Wednesday night for the Thanksgiving holiday in the USA. So, I won't be able to host the turn on Wednesday. Let's shoot to host by Friday night, if not sooner on Thursday evening.

Better than halloween, that we here in Australia seem to have inherited via TV lol

Re: Turn 5 / Thanksgiving
 

Yes. Thanksgiving is the holiday where we all have a feast (usually Turkey). It also commemorates the first "Thanksgiving" in the Plymouth Colony by the English Puritan Pilgrims and local Native Americans in 1620 or so, if I recall correctly. It's probably my favorite holiday. No gifts. No bother. Just good food with friends and family, plus a 4-day weekend. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

It's commonly called "Turkey Day" since Turkey is such a commont theme. It's also the day President Bush pardons a couple of turkeys- and no, we're not talking about Lewis "Scooter" Libby.

Ok - I get it. It is the least commercial day of the year for family and friends.

And George pardons a number of Turkeys and refuses to pardon a number of death sentences.

lol no...it's the official start of the holiday shopping season, and a time of huge thanksgiving sales.

And I'm not sure if George getting a hummer from a turkey is traditional :-)
