I had to search around a bit to find a harvest feast in World of Warcraft somewhat suitable for the American Thanksgiving holiday.

Where is it?

For the non-Americans in the audience, tomorrow is what retail people call Black Friday, because it’s the day when every American is required to go shopping ALL DAY. I’m not in retail, but I do promise to be part of the problem.

I’ll be in that traffic. I’ll stand in line. I might shove a little, but I’ll look innocent and gesture to the guy behind me. I’ll act impatient. I won’t know what I want to buy until I monopolize a salesperson’s time for an hour or more. I’ll want delivery on Friday. I won’t take out my credit card until after the cashier has rung up the sale. “What? I have to pay for this? I assumed a handshake would be sufficient.” And before it’s all over, I will have transferred a significant portion of my wealth back into the American economy.

That’s how I give thanks.

Have a good holiday, back next week.

I know someone will recognize this within seconds of publish because they leveled from 5 to 28 in this out-of-the-way little quest grove, but as God is my witness, I had never been here until last week when I was putzing prancing around on my fancy pants Blood Elf hunter.
