I get cold really quickly, but I don't care. I like weather. I never understand why people move someplace so that they can avoid weather.

I don't think that this family is odd. People may have greater or lesser elements of drama in their Thanksgiving Day. But I recognize these people.

When my dad was alive, he would give them to the kids. People didn't have a lot of money, so they did this for gifts.

They used to just give them to their own kids. Dad was a big joker when we were young. I found money in my nuts.
