THANKSgiving, Part 8

I realize that I am exactly a week late, thank you very much. That's what happens when you let the work pile up. I would have posted on Thanksgiving, but no one "under 18 years of age" was allowed to use the computer at the hotel. Grrr. I was really *insert expletive*.

P.S. About #44 - I swear, it works better than soap. The stuff will get rid of almost anything. Fingerprints on CD's, crayon marks on the outside of notebooks, ink off your hand that the soap won't get off...(all of these things have been proven). It's the one and only wonder cleaner that you can buy in 42 different flavors!
