There probably more socially accepted ways to celebrate Thanksgiving. Hell Zoe knew there was. It just didn't feel right celebrating a holiday that was about over-eating and the celebration of the decimation of a people in a place that was a million light years from North America

He'd been on his way to Thanksgiving dinner, dressed for the occasion in an Apache Chief t-shirt and an authentic head dress that the clothes box had provided when he ran into Zoe, all bebuckled and shit.

"How." Brodie said, raising one hand in greeting, "You're a long way from Plymouth Rock."

"And you're a long way from your wickiup," Zoe returned. A good historical reference in the face of fitting pop culture never got old.

Well, this was a joke waiting to happen. Where was the rabbi when they needed one.

"Nice headdress. When do we get down to the pillaging and pox filled blankets?"

"Right after we all smoke the peace pipe," Brodie said. With Jay and Bob not around, SOMEBODY had to make the blunt jokes.

"Then we're probably supposed to talk about MAIZE or some shit."

"Deer hunting, that sort of thing."

This was not the holiday to be discussing things like ravaging starvation and the like. It just was too damn depressing.

Pointing to the headdress, Zoe asked the obvious. "So what's with the get up?"
