ohh... i like this article
from my newspaper, the first part of the article goes as follows.

"Too bad Plymouth. The new World's first harvest feast was here, writes RANDY BOSWELL.

The Pilgrims of Plymouth praised God and ate turkey. Everyone knows the story of the first Thanksgiving in the New World: how a group of English settlers who sailed to America on the MAYFLOWER gathered in the fall of 1621 to celebrate the bountiful harvest in their Massachusetts colony.
Although a much-mythologized tale, its essential outline is true - except for the part about being first.
Forty-three years earlier, on a tiny, windswept island in the Canadian Artic, a group of illstarred English sailors who survived a stormy Atlantic crossing knelt in prayer on a desolate shore 5,000 kilometers from home. At the urging of Martin Frobisher, learder of the 1578 expedition, and guided by a firey ship's preacher named Robert Wolfall, 100 or more men gathered to give thanks for their deleverance from death, then devoured hearty meals of salt beef, biscuits and peas.
It's a little known nugget of authentic Canadiana, lost in a sea of cranberry sauce and warmed-over stories from the south. But during the past decade, archeologists have been quitely exploring the place where a beloved holiday tradition has Canadian roots.
They've not only rediscovered the romance and folly of an epic voyage of exploration. They've also unearthed tangible traces of the 16th-century adventure, including fragments of clay, a small basket and even bits of food left behind by Frobisher's party - 425-year-old leftovers from North America's real first Thanksgiving."


So there, Muahaha! um... we have the first thanksgiving... remember that

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.
