Thankful Thoughts

• The negative effects of a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese^® are not immediate, which helps me to ignore them while enjoying a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese^®.
• The law of gravity didn't require a two-thirds majority in order to pass.
• Nobody REALLY cares whether it's pronounced kyoo-pon or coo-pon.
• BabySister opened my mind to the wonderfulness that is Skyline Chili^® poured over macaroni and cheese.
• Dog hair isn't carcinogenic.
• Dairy Queen Blizzards^® are exponentially more enjoyable than meteorological blizzards.
• No one seems to be protesting the obviously-restrictive/repressive order in which children are forced to memorize the letters of the alphabet. (It's nice to know at least SOME things are safe from the "Come on, it's the 21st Century" line of reasoning.)
• The foreheads of humans do not feature a scrolling news ticker based on what lurks within.
