Day Of Thanks

This Thanksgiving I was not able to spend with Natalia or see her this week and knew it was going to be a bit hard for me still. However I had some great company come up and spend a few days. Snow was expected earlier part of the week and we were blessed with some snow Wednesday night into Thanksgiving. I could not have asked for more this week. Fireplace on for days, sledding and some shoveling!

Still slowly reading Valley Forge and for my comic book pick of this week, I went with Spider-Man #129. I am not a Spider-Man fan at all but this one marked the first appearance of The Punisher. I was very disappointed to read such a lame story to his creation.

Finally watched Terminator Genisys and I really liked this movie. A great ride and a great tie in to the other movies and the universe. Watched Blade Runner again this week and was shown an alternate ending I had no idea existed (see below). Also a few games hit the table this week and I think Dixit was a winner. I also played solo Legendary Encounters Aliens through all its movies and found it an entertaining game but with its limitations. Sunday my day didn't go as planned but in the end I learned to play 1775 and played like a little kid the Revolutionary War.

Thanksgiving Holiday? Please read the real reason for this holiday as it never was meant to represent the "Pilgrims" arrival to this land or all its commercialized and misinformation told. Please read John C. Dvorak's real reason for the "holiday" and the Proclamation of Thanksgiving by Abraham Lincoln.
