    Again, roughly 10 years ago, Richard posted another CdS Thanksgiving related blog entry:&nbsp

    For those like me, who don’t read Italian, (I think) this is what the word balloons contain (text makes online translation easier): 

    Mi ero scordata di avere un tavolo da pranzo qui. 

    Hai visto che bel centrotavola ha fatto Alice all’asilo? 

    Ci è voluto un sacchetto di batuffoli di cotone, un rotolo intero di carta crespata e un barattolo di lustrini! È il primo tacchino ricalcato visibile dalla luna! 

    È vero che mangiare il tacchino può farti perdere conoscenza? 

    Il pasticcio di bietole della Nonna! Mi ero scordato quanto fosse color sangue. 

    Togliamo questi piatti, cosi posso rimettere tutte le mie riviste sul tavolo. 

    Alice, che cosa ćè adesso? 

    IL MIO BEL TACCHINO CENTROTAVOLA É RICOPERTO DI SUGO! 

    Ha ha! Scommetto che Papino ha cercato di mangiarlo! 

    Uuf. No, grazie, sono pieno.

    Alice owned a rabbit from Bonneville,

    That she feared Big Shirley was gonna kill,

    But the dog was much nicer,

    In its mouth did not splice her,

    She was so Thankful for the life of Polyfill!

    My limerick offering for the day – Happy Thanksgiving!

    Lest we forget Polyfill is in reality a dog toy that Alice picked up and would not let them put back when she was a little tyke.
