Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving,

This is by far my favorite holiday of the year, a time to briefly reflect on how blessed I've been.

For all the doom, and gloom I often write about it's nice to step back and remember how much we have to be thankful for.

America, for all of its detractors, is still the most productive economy in the world even in the middle of the worst recession since the Great Depression; its crime rate is the lowest in four decades; it has the world's strongest, most battle-tested military; and it remains the source of the best ideas, both technological and cultural, in the world.

Personally, I'm thankful for my wonderful family, and all the friends that give me strength and laughter.

And lastly, I'm thankful that the worst pre-Thanksgiving trading week in history is over. Here's to Friday.

Wishing you and yours a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.

Be careful out there, and keep the lights on,
