Quick Note: I'm spending oodles of money on this year's Christmas/Advent wares, so if you want to help me recoup some of that, there's an easy way to do it. If you're taking advantage of Amazon's ridiculously good Black Friday deals this weekend, please do so using this link right here. I'll get a little referral fee, and that will let me buy more wacky-flavored candy canes without having to give up gasoline. Thanks!
Ha ha ha ha ha! Technically, I am NOT late! Up now, with like 10 minutes to spare before it's actually Thanksgiving, is my review of the 1991 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, filled with words, pics and video clips!
I must be honest with you: It's the least interesting of the parades I've reviewed, and nothing exciting happens. In fact, after struggling to make the article go for at least two pages, I ultimately consolidated it into one longer page. There just wasn't enough there. Next year, perhaps I should investigate things like this before it gets too late to pick a different parade.
On the other hand, it had Captain Planet, The Addams Family and, uh, Kelsey Grammer, and that's at least good for something.
A Happy Thanksgiving to all who will be celebrating it tomorrow. Eat the food, drink the drinks and bask in the glow of a holiday season officially begun. Now that the bird parade is out of my hair, it's time to paint this sum'bitch town red...and motherfuckin' green. Holla.
While I'm here, I might as well knock this out of the way. I'm not sure if there's anything to dislike about these neat little Play-Doh stocking stuffers, except for the fact that they're sold together in really ugly plastic bags. If you're able to convince yourself that they didn't come in such ugly, useless bags, they become flawless.Each pack comes with two holiday-themed Play-Doh containers. One is shaped like an undecorated Christmas tree, while the other is a rather befuddled and egg-shaped snowman. You get white and red Play-Doh, while the containers themselves each host a small Play-Doh "cookie cutter".
More interesting than any of this is the warning sticker on each container, alerting parents with allergy-laden children that Play-Doh contains wheat. This seems like a bold admission that most kids enjoy eating Play-Doh. Someday, they should just make outright edible, flavored Play-Doh and be done with it. We're going to eat it anyway...it might as well have a hint of cherry and an ad campaign behind it.

I’m glad he gets to enjoy the holiday though.
Yeah, I’ll talk to my aunt about that. Maybe show her some cat and lady head-rub sex commercial… oh, wait, that won’t help my case any. hahahaha
