The original Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving
By now I am usually aimed north on I-75, headed for the big family gathering in Michigan. But this year, for various reasons, we decided to have Thanksgiving with our family of four: Just the kids coming home to the otherwise empty nest.

// Nov 19th, 2009
I have not had the privilege to interview Sarah Palin, but I’m betting it would have been a lot more fun than the interviews I had with John McCain, Bob Dole or even George W. Bush, who was pretty fun and funny in his Texas go-to-hell way.
