I wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and tell you that I'm truly thankful for having been appointed RideMaster For Life, as it truly reflects the trust and confidence you must have in me. (Even though some might say it's a meaningless job any fool could do, I know that's just jealousy talking).

Anyway, because it's Thanksgiving, I wanted to share a story with you about how something tragic can have a silver lining:

One day, two men showed up at Paddy O'Brien's house and and knocked on the front door. Mrs. O'Brien answered. 

" Mrs. Obrien?" one man asked. " Yes, that's me", she said.

" We have some terrible news about your husband Paddy. He fell into the Guiness vat at the factory and tragically, he drowned. He's gone!"

"Oh dear, I can't believe it", she said. "I hope he didn't suffer; did he die quickly?"

"No, I'm afraid it took quite some time", one of the men replied. "He had to get out of the vat and go pee three times before he passed."

Happy Thanksgiving all.
