NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A house fire that was put out once roared up again hours later. The second fire destroyed the home on Brickmont Drive, near Brick Church Pike and Briley Parkway.
At first, fire officials said it was a rekindling of an earlier fire at the home. That one started in the kitchen while someone was deep-frying a turkey.
It did enough damage that the family that lived there had to leave, officials said.
A few hours later, flames erupted again, but this time in a separate part of the house.

we're doing thanksgiving tomorrow. my man had to work a little this morning and i don't have family down here any more so it's kinda just a blah day. we bought stuff for a turkey dinner but forgot a few key ingredients and everything is pretty much closed at this point so we decided to go all out tomorrow for the thanksgiving dinner. tonight it's just pork chops on the grill with some sides and watching movies, smoking pot, etc...
this year i'm actually gonna go try to hit up my favorite mall on the friday after thanksgiving:nervous: i'm scared. lol never done it before, and i know it's gonna be crazy but i think if i go into it with a carefree attitude, things will be fine. i'm not gonna get all stressed out or annoyed...just gonna mosey around and eat some goodies (godiva store at this mall...mmmMMM!) and buy some stuff if it's not too inconvenient.
oh and moral it's more about the peacemaking between the settlers & native americans. not just a "meal". it signifies peace and love and family time and giving thanks...i think it's nice that it's such a big deal over here. gives us americans a chance to stop and smell the ing roses and appreciate what we have. |

| i love how they made peace with the natives by exterminating them and forcing the ones that they did not kill to live in remote areas without running water. |

The same natives that the US spent the next hundred and fifty years trying to kill off?

I do get that; however, given the choice between flying cross country for thanksgiving and doing the same for Christmas, I'd pick Christmas. I guess it's because we don't have this big lore and build up over thanksgiving here. |
