Here in the U.S., on this day, we have the famous Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, which often features balloons of popular cartoon characters. Which, this year, will not include a certain duck.
I wish I could also share Mitch Hedberg's riff on turkey, but I can't find a clip of it. All right.
Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving!

(P.S. I don't know why the last 8 seconds of this clip refuse to play, but, for the record, it's supposed to say, "The balloon was last seen traveling east at 15 mph. Please contact Aaron Johnson at whattheduck.net if found. Happy Thanksgiving.")
ADDENDUM: Here's the Hedberg clip. Thanks to Steve R.!
If the duck crosses the international border
and arrives in Canada, can we keep it as a political prisoner?
Full of hot air and with nothing to say???

Mitch Hedberg does a rant about turkey in the last couple minutes of this clip...

He also does bits on mashed potatoes and baked potatoes in this clip. All relevant for thanksgiving. :)

Autumn,
He also worked a nice photography joke into that set:
"Whenever I get together with a bunch of friends, I try to make sure we hang out clockwise....
...that way we are easy to identify."

That is one classy turkey. I am pretty sure that's the new Nikon D300 around its neck! I want that turkey!

That duck floated over my duck blind the other day and my hunting partner and I blasted it to kingdom come. The dog just looked at us and shook his head.
