everyone be careful this thanksgiving.

between all the driving, cooking, and ahem.... "celebrating" (in the liquid form) thanksgiving's gonna be a busy time for us first responders. (deep frying a turkey can cause a fire if you're not careful. over 500 fires nationwide in 1999)

and i'd just hate to hear about one of you getting hurt on such a happy holiday.

happy thanksgiving!

amen on the fried turkey,, if you dont know what your doing,, dont mess with it,, it can explode and 375 degree oil can do alot of bad things to skin and anything it touches,, and dont do it inside,, you want to burn your house down?

Thanks for reminding everyone. I work in a hospital and over the holidays the emergency rooms are extra busy.

I agree for anyone driving on the holidays, please be extra careful, and if you plan to drink - PLEASE - choose a designated driver.

we had to figure out a few weeks ago how someone hit a tree 5 foot up and wrapped around it and stuck up there with nothing of the car touching the ground,, they estimated the guys speed around 110 when he hit it
