I'm thankful for...
...a royal flush on the flop. Toothpaste that doesn't clump. Lack of b.o. A puppy's breath. A kind checkout clerk at the market. No noise from my derailleur and chain. Funny bumper stickers. Finding joy. Warm potato soup with dumplings. A creamy ale. The satisfaction of a good run. My children's laughter. The smell of pies cooking. Warm sun on my face. The smell of wood burning in a fireplace. Good jeans. Good genes. Thoughtful comedy. Selflessness that I see in others. My health. My wife's embrace and understanding. Patience. Peace. Hope. Love....and about 35,472 other things that I couldn't possibly list right now.

Sinterklaas!
My favorite Sinterklaas song (click on the lyrics for the tune):
Sinterklaasje, kom maar binnen met je knecht,
en we zitten allemaal even recht.
Misschien heeft u wel even tijd,
voordat u weer naar Spanje rijdt.
Sinterklaasje, kom maar even bij ons aan
en laat uw schimmeltje maar buiten staan.
En we zingen en we springen en we zijn zo blij,
want er zijn geen stoute kind'ren bij.
