The Gobbler
October 8, 2006
I love Canada, and being Canadian – even though, or perhaps because I came to Canada later in life from free choice rather than by birth default. I love being in a country that has a day dedicated to thanksgiving, even if that mostly translates into getting stuffed on turkey and collapsing on the couch in a triptophan haze.
So for your turkey-enhanced entertainment, I suggest an online tour of the 70’s retro homage to turkeyness, wittily presented by James Lileks – the Gobbler motel and supper club.
Sometimes we need all the thanksgiving we can get.

I love the Lileks, too. He always has the perfect, life-affirming photos involving shag carpeting.
I wanted to say hi and tell you I love your site. Doppleganger is rarely wrong.

doppelganger and shag rule (not necessarily in that order)
