Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the US, and Happy Thursday to everyone around the world.

It's a holiday for me and I'm not at work, but relaxing at time. Well, I might work a touch, but mostly I'll be relaxing with family. This is one of the few years we're not skiing for the holiday as there has been far too little snow in Colorado. A disaster, if you ask me.

Today is idealistically a day to give thanks for the good things in our lives. I'm very thankful that my family is all in good health, I have a wonderful job, and there is peace in my world. I hope that many of you can say the same thing yourselves.

I would also ask that you keep in mind there are others in the world that are less fortunate and if you can make a difference that helps another, please make an effort to do so.
