Oona:
I still need to see a cooking
show, to make up for that debacle – that didn’t count! How am I going to help
make a special Thanksgiving dinner if I don’t learn something USEFUL?
Paladin:
Aw, Oon, don’t worry – I heard Ms. Beamlette say she’d take us all out to dinner this year, so
you don’t have to cook. Just relax, and be your beautiful self – for me *air
kiss*.
Oona: *sigh*… You win. Here-- here’s the remote.
Paladin: That’s the spirit, Oon – there’s always next
year – you’ll learn something about cooking by then. Erm,
something MORE – something ELSE! Ummm –
Oona: Oh, just WATCH your game already! **click**
Oona: On behalf of the Beamlette household, we all
wish everyone on Zone of Zen and Realm of Resin a VERY happy Thanksgiving!
Paladin: And that YOUR team wins, too!

doing something for others, too…
