Well you do know all about it, Eddie explained it to you in his unique way, remember his bit about the pilgrims meeting the indians and tell them to put some clothes on, then later asking them for food? Well that's what it's about, the indians, being such innocents who believed in gratitude and honour, gave the Pilgrims food, which they thanked God for, and well fortified to survive the brutal winter, the Pilgrims awaited the Spring to take the indian's land and kill and scatter the 'heathen savages'. So our country was founded on lies and betrayals. Much to be thankful for. -- Eddie Pedantic Gasbag Discussion Group
