   I was enjoying my Thanksgiving day until I stepped in dog crap, in my bare feet.

   Nope.  The second half was just as putrid as the first.  Miserable damn performance.

   Meanwhile, the Pentagon has ensured that the deployed military gets “a literal taste of home” for Thanksgiving, said Geoff Morrell, the Pentagon’s press secretary.

   The Defense Logistics Agency has made plans to ship Thanksgiving meals for approximately 180,000 troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

   “Without wading too far into the delicious details, our forces in these two theaters will be sitting down to Thanksgiving feasts that includes 63,000 pounds of potatoes, 8,700 cans of cranberry sauce, 61,000 pounds of stuffing and more than 465,000 pounds of turkey. For dessert, there will be 67,000 pies and cakes,” Morrell said.

   “Our soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines risk their lives on a daily basis. They deserve every effort we can make to show them how thankful we are for their continuing sacrifices,” Morrell said.
