Thank you oldmanmoses for your Thanksgiving Day well wishes to everyone here on the HSBBW.

I'm guessing, by my friend's photo above, that he doesn't handle tryptophan too well! He certainly can't be too sleepy while partaking in his favorite pastime of pretzel straightening. Papi's painstaking, time consuming, and patience brimming skill of straightening out pretzels is unmatched. See? There on the plate, like jackstrawed baseball bats swinging at a diverse array of politically correct jellybean baseballs, the fruit of his steady handiwork. Not one of them broken and they're all now straight as an arrow!

He's really got a knack for it. I've enrolled in his vaunted 'Pretzel Straightening Techniques 101' class a number of times and I've read his Pawtuxet Tattler® bestselling book My Twisted Life and How I Came to Straighten It Out. With all of my exuberant energy this is the best I ever managed to accomplish. Boxes and boxes of pretzels I've bollixed them all! Snyder's of Hanover® would not be proud of me. It pretty much goes without saying that dad's 'Broken Pretzel' stuffing, all 20 shattered pounds of it, has become a salty and crunchy tradition on our otherwise perfect Thanksgiving Day table.

Come to think of it...there could be another explanation for turkey not being on papi's plate.
