When you count your blessings this Thanksgiving, don’t forget Congress. They’ve adjourned. They can’t spend any more of your money. - Will Rogers

How many of you can remember the good old days when Congress REALLY WAS adjourned by Thanksgiving? At 69 I’m not sure whether I really can remember it or just remember reading about it!

we’ve been having spring-like weather here in Canada… for the US peeps:

Andy does a good job talking and drinking at the same time.

I give thanks today for all of you guys too!Grateful Thanksgiving Hugs ((((((( CAPPERS ! )))))))

It might be an improvement!

This is for the Folks in frosty Minnesota:

lol…ok, You get lots of hugs…but still, those leftovers arent going to eat themselves ya know!

At least he’s not the face on the bar room floor!

Happy, happy, happy Thanksgiving.

Haha! Excellent strip today.

Andy always has something to say…

I love the name ‘Hendrix’ for some reason.

I wonder if Guitar Bob used to live next door to Andy?

A very Happy Thanksgiving to all of the Americans out there.

Coming from a Brit…

No matter what I’ve got done I usually feel as though I could have done more. Drove Ed to V.A. this morning for his dermatology appointment. He dropped off the new non-functioning hearing aids and then we had lunch. His boy will be having him for Thanksgiving…… having himover for Thanksgiving. After I get through the rest of the comics and maybe upload some snaps I’ll see about reconstructing that other post. I really enjoyed building it and then had a gif that wouldn’t post as a gif. That’s when the trouble began…..________________________________________

I hope you have better luck submitting that post next time.

The only GIF’s I do are the little animations. Is that what you meant or was it a big animated image?

I hope Ed is doing well and has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I hope Joe does too!

My Best Wishes go to you, Ron, Ken and the rest of your family.

Have a good one!

Hello Cappers. May all of you in the USA have a wonderful Thanksgiving. May you all have a wonderful day and be grateful for what you have and may your needs be met.

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow colonists, and a shout-out to the rest of the Cappers from around the world. (We seem to be a very diverse lot.)@Linda Dean: Thanks for your kind comment about my poem in yesterday’s “Thatababy” comments. Somehow I identify both with Thatababy and Andy, although both of them are more mature than I am………

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Wishing you all the best today and throughout the year.

Shouldn’t Andy be drinking in the first panel? It’s kind of hard to drink and talk at the same time! ;-)

Happy thanksgiving everybody.

You’re always welcome. I’m glad you are all having a great time.

Your brother’s names are easy to remember since I have two uncles named Ron (Ronnie) and Ken.

My own half-brother’s name is Lee. I’ve never met him but my Dad told me a bit about him. So that’s easy to remember since it’s a short name.

Thank you for the ‘Beverly’ clip you sent me. I loved it…Very catchy!

I’m glad that leak from the truck is now fixed. Hope it doesn’t happen again.

My day went fine thank you! Hope yours did too.

I love the walking GIF… It’s awesome.

By the way…the time you took to write that comment is really appreciated.

Re yesterday:.I would be interested as to how you chose your alter ego. Mine came about because " ’aarken" is like “hearken” which means “listen to this”. My recording days are over, unfortunately (due to a breakdown) but i still like playing with sound.

Great classics today everyone – Neat pics too! Hope everyone is as stuffed as I am!! @GODFREYDANIELYou are most welcome! I am a reader .so it hit home with me…I hope your Thanksgiving was as bountiful as my own was. And by the way, let us not talk about maturity since; ^ croaking out the Toys R Us theme song ^….lol…I dont wanna grow up, I’m a Toy R Us kid…(for those not familiar with it…)

I hopoe everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I love all the Thanksgiving jokes today and of course the Andy strips.
