November obviously, who cares about the Canadians =).

And because my birthdays on thanksgiving this year, which kind of sucks because my birthday dinner has to be turkey when I'd prefer a juicy steak or something, but oh well.

Today, our Thanksgiving is the fourth Thursday of November. This was set by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939 (approved by Congress in 1941), who changed it from Abraham Lincoln's designation as the last Thursday in November (which could occasionally end up being the fifth Thursday and hence too close to Christmas for businesses). But the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving began at some unknown date between September 21 and November 9, most likely in very early October. The date of Thanksgiving was probably set by Lincoln to somewhat correlate with the anchoring of the Mayflower at Cape Cod, which occurred on November 21, 1620 (by our modern Gregorian calendar--it was November 11 to the Pilgrims who used the Julian calendar).
Read the sentence in bold.

I give thanks for not having Thanks Giving, I always thought of it to be the day some Hollywood hero loses his family and slaughters the enemy. That's so mean :(
