Being thankful doesn’t stop with the holiday

Thanksgiving Day has come and gone but certainly we are not prohibited by law from continuing to express our thanks for all things great and good.

Therefore, I declare that all of us are lucky and hopefully thankful to live in a free country where we can basically come and go as we wish.

(I personally do not see that particular freedom ending anytime soon, even if certain naysayers among us seem certain that the government, due to the recent national election, is about to send a militia group to arrest us. Where would they take all of us?)

More talented regular columnists for The Herald have amply reported on what they were most appreciative for during this 2012 season of thanks
