Some Spurious Nib Thanksgiving details.
In November of 1688 Father Louis Hennepin, (Belgian Roman Catholic priest, missionary of the Franciscan Recollet order, explorer of North America and AAA member) celebrated a mass in honor of the Baby Paul Bunyan carving the first Thanksgiving turkey.
Dr. Fredric Von Distalmeir, Slavic hieroglyph expert, discovered the etymology of the word amazing has its roots in the word maze. According to Distalmeir,
John Rolfe couldn’t believe corn could be popped. When Pocahontas showed him the process he was ‘amazed.’ Rolfe then realized he was amazed by the beauty of Pocahontas. He was amazed at her ability to carve turkey. He was amazed at the taste of candied yams.
Rolfe used the new word so much the Indigenous people and the Englanders voted to send John and his new bride back to England!
n 1739 Johannes Peter Troxell’s (1691 - 1766) Pennsylvania neighbor declared Folgers Coffee the official hot beverage of Thanksgiving.
Katherine Pear and John Q.Bodrog were married on Thanksgiving 1897. On each anniversary they tried to recite more reasons to be thankful than the other.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
