AN UNSUNG HERO:

My photo
Naturalist by devotion, humorist by genetics, hero by default; Kamaroh is a Republican, a Presbyterian, a Polio surviver, a former US Marine, & Great Plains Badger. Earned an MA in English from SFSU. Student & friend of novelist Kay Boyle. His blog is a no profanity zone. There is little edgey emotionalism if he avoids thinking about his children. Kamaroh is a masculinist, places value on fraternity & believes living stag is a responsible and manly option. Particularly apreciative of the charm of Asian females, he discovered in 1999 he is able to love one small lady to the extreme that thinking about her can make his nose bleed. From boyhood forward, he values having male friends & male role models; though this blog is an extention of that belief; it is all welcome. Though containing male posturing, biased poetry, shakey facts, & faulted bachelor housekeeping, this blog's intent is to be good for your health & contains no spanky material. Pardon me if I am speaking too loudly because even with the high tech ... hearing aids the Veterans Administration provides to me, I do not have normal hearing.

THANKSGIVING IN A MASCULINIST LIFE

Johnny Flowers bought a frozen turkey again this year because of price!
Each year that bugs me but he has an exacting patient mind when it comes to cooking projects and this being his 6th turkey, I was amazed and delighted when he carved it, that it turned out steaming moist, tasty, and just totally good. I had a really mellow Thanksgiving and I am blessed.

I hear folks wishing each other Happy Thanksgiving! just as they would wish each other a Happy Christmas and me and Kamaroh think that is inappropriate. If they can't recall the history of the holiday, I am tempted to prompt them to Wikapedia the event! Most certainly it is is a day hopefully of felicity and contentment with family, sure, but more aptly isn't it the day for celebrating the Provider's abundance and for gratitude and the time for putting *one's blessings on the table along with the Thanksgiving meal.

You may substitute this word for the other if you wish, I didn't as I am very cautious that I do not use the *G.. word just to add thunder, resonance, and echo to my thoughts. I am determined that there be two sets of footprints in the sand of this blog.
