For many posters outside the US here is a little explanation. Yeh, you probably like me know the stories associated with thanksgiving of the early pilgrims surviving off the gifts of the American natives which is celebrated on the Fourth Thursday of November, but it reality its more.
The best way to think of it is a holiday for the American families get together. More like a Christmas Day holiday, eating too much food, and listening to the Queens speech.
This is why I am starting this thread. Many of us have lost our families to the indoctrination of the watchtower. To those I’ll be thinking of you, and raising my glass to the courage you’ve performed by choosing reality over deception. Knowing the cost.

The fire damaged one wire and melted part of the circuit board. The wire was fixable and the thing still works with the existing circuit board, so let's see how it turns out...so far so good....
