- I'm thankful that after nearly two years of struggle, we're on the verge of launching Pegasus News.
- I'm thankful I'm married to an amazing woman who makes me laugh, makes me think, is absolutely beautiful, cooks delicious Thanksgiving casseroles, is willing to suffer to enable my penchant for tilting at windmills, and puts up with more of my bullshit than anyone ever should.
- I'm thankful for the Pegasus News team, which worked over a year without pay; toils for near-Dickensian wages now; and is working through the holiday weekend as I type. (2:52 on Thanksgiving day and 45% of the staff is active on Gtalk.)
- I'm thankful that I have a business partner who obsesses over the details that make the difference between good and great.
- I'm thankful that my big brown dogs still act like kids on Christmas morning every time I walk in the door.
- I'm thankful for all of the friends and neighbors who have supported Our Little Business.
- I'm saddened by what happened to Picnic yesterday, but thankful that the community is rallying around him.
- I'm thankful for best pals like Houston who email me YouTube video of Son House.
- I'm thankful for music in general. Working while listening to my 5-star Itunes library doesn't feel like working. (Now playing: Townes Van Zandt)
What are you thankful for?

Also thankful for the cartoons of Hugh Macleod, which are my screensaver and sustain me on the days that life, and particularly business, crosses into absurdity. Here's today's entry, with which I wholeheartedly concur:

I'm as thankful as Pikahsso. Also ate a bunch of crap today. And by crap I mean "magnificent splendor."

I am thankful for you, Mike. You are the best in so many things you do. And this year I am thankful that you had to chance to get out here to Portland and eat bacon ice cream and take disco naps with me (A.O.-- Mike was on the air matress and I was on the couch, don't want to start anything that could end on a Jerry Springer Show). Seriously, bless you three times.
