Drought
It's so dry in Georgia that the Baptists are starting to baptize by sprinkling; the Methodists are using wet-wipes; the Presbyterians are giving out rain-checks, and the Catholics are praying for the wine to turn back into water.

Stress
It was Thanksgiving for 2007.  This week was the busiest travel day of the year and the busiest shopping day of the year.  I am stressed and broke just thinking about it.

Tradition
In keeping with White House tradition, President Bush pardoned two Thanksgiving turkeys, but the third turkey wasn't so lucky.  It was featured at the President's dinner table.

Worry
Wayne Newton has been cleared by his cardiologist to go on the road with ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" tour.  Thank goodness, now I can enjoy the holidays without being consumed by worry.

Excellent
According to a survey, seven in 10 motorists consider themselves better drivers than most other drivers on the road.  The survey found that 50 percent of men rated their driving ability as "excellent," compared to 34 percent of women.  But to most men, being an "excellent" driver means not being caught for speeding.

Humble
Michael Vick surrendered to US marshals this week and will remain in jail until his sentencing on a dogfighting charge in three weeks.  The Atlanta Falcons quarterback is set to be sentenced December 10 on the federal dogfighting conspiracy charge, but turned himself in because he was anticipating a prison term.  It was reported that he surrendered with his tail between his legs.

Gifts
An angry ex-car wash employee Scott Schmitz is accused of breaking into Buggy Bath Car Wash this week and stealing 5,619 quarters - $1,400 worth, weighing 71 pounds.  How do you spend 71 pounds of quarters?  I bet his family and friends would have gotten rolls of quarters for Christmas.

Sleep
I fell a sleep after our Thanksgiving meal - just like some of you do during my sermon.

Relatives
We spent Thanksgiving with my wife's family.  I lost the bet this year.
