Things You're Happy About Today
Few of mine include that the left ankle poolside ping pong injury, this past August, is finally beginning to heal; that the NFL point spread coverage/team performance index stats refined from 2008 have begun to provide an equilibrium profile, which is informing my picks in both a Texas and Niagara Falls (Canada) 2009 NFL weekly pool; that California Songbird called last night and softly insisted we stay on the phone; that the time was right for taking a chess sabbatical, even though recent game positions still play around in my forehead at odd hours of the night and day; that I've been very fortunate to make several trusted friends on Red Hot Pawn since July, 2007.
How about a few of yours...

I bought some lovely new noisemakers yesterday.
Also, this weekend is Thanksgiving in Canada and I am very excited to head home to the country and see my family, including my lil sister who is now 5 months along, and pig the eff out.

The "Leafs" still can't play hockey. Now having said that "my" Canadiens, aren't much better.....oh wait when did the Leafs last win the Stanley Cup?
I know: Take it to the Sports Forum Spanky

Poem infused with a perspective on happiness I've always appreciated...
SALUTATION
"O generation of the thoroughly smug
and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fisherman picknicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth
and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake
and do not even own clothing."
~Ezra Pound (1885-1972)
