 QUOTE OF THE WEEK:  Presidential Thanksgiving Message: "Almighty God, who hast given us this good land for our heritage; We humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will." -
- President Franklin D. Roosevelt

TRIVIA: TV dinners have Thanksgiving to thank. In 1953, someone at Swanson misjudged the number of frozen turkeys it would sell that Thanksgiving -- by 26 TONS! Some industrious soul came up with a brilliant plan: Why not slice up the meat and repackage with some trimmings on the side?  Thus, the first TV dinner was born!

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
