T.Hanks a lot


I’ve skipped an acceptation of the Student of the month award, scoring the highest grade for the boys in my science class for the first quarter, birthday parties, the end of my soccer season, a new soccer season, Halloween, the discovering of Ardi, my time on the PA morning announcements, and the phony-bologna Barack Obama receiving the high & mighty Nobel Peace Prize. But I’m back just in time for holiday season and Thanksgiving. And I know that this is all about the Pilgrims coming from the Mayflower to the new world and having a feast with Squanto and Massasoit and the Wampanoag tribe, but I have a different conjecture.

You see I used to think Tom Hanks was a hobo and he was born on the fourth Thursday of November sometime in the ‘80s. I thought he was diagnosed with cancer, depression, cerebral palsy, etc, but he was too poor to afford a doctor so you technically couldn’t call him diagnosed. So he basically had a worse life than Anne Frank, but eventually some sympathy came around for him. Then nearing his birthday, many people started food drives, toy drives, clothing drives, etc. for him. So than people decided since his first initial and his last name spelled out Thanks and since everybody was giving stuff to him, they dubbed this time of year Thanksgiving. But then the people wanted THEIR own party, and since they wanted something different, they chose turkey, stuffing, cranberries, gravy, etc. Soon marveling at the ironic coincidence that a teenager pointed out to the New York Times, everybody now states what he or she is thankful for during this joyous day. The crummy part about it is I recently found out a different and more popular reason for Thanksgiving. And when I was watching Forrest Gump, Toy Story,and Big, I found out that Tom Hanks is a millionaire actor. Which is why I vetoed watching Angels & Demons, Philadelphia, Cast Away, Saving Private Ryan, Apollo 13, and the Da Vinci Code. I actually admired his work in Forrest Gump, but I just can’t...I just can’t take the humiliation anymore. Though it would probably have been a better children’s story than Charlie Brown and the Peanuts’ Happy Thanksgiving. I can still hear his mom say "Life is a box of chocolates". I guess I should’ve called it T.Hanks_giving. I’d rather watch Degrassi or one of those overrated TNT and Comedy Central shows than any of his films. You know why that channel’s called Comedy Central? I mean it sure isn’t comedy (except for South Park), and it’s not even located in the central part of the U.S.A! Reno 911 is located in Reno, South Park is in Denver, and I think Scrubs takes place in Southern California. I have a theory for the name too, but that’s another story…

To Indefinitely Be Continued

H.T (Happy Thanksgiving)
