Such a nice Happy Thanksgiving text from my father

Instead of it being Happy Thanksgiving son, i get this in response.

"I'm in Denver with the dope smoken Obumer supporters, i'll call you next week have a good day."

Those are word for words what he sent me. Nice isn't it? Happy Thanksgiving Du'ers, hope you all have a nice day.

Are these your relatives he's speaking of?
Or just people in general?

Happy Thanksgiving to you, too, vercetti2021.
(I'm old enough to realize we have to forgive or mentally excuse our relatives their excesses and frailties. We never know entirely what preceded their peculiarities.)

We were kidding that we were going to say our pie was an "Obama" pie and set her off.

I have RW son who doesn't talk to me anymore because of my "liberal" ways. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Holiday!

Amendment 64 is not yet the law of the state for at least 60 days. Implementation of the first retail store is at least a year away.

But you can grow up to 6 plants privately, I believe.

Seems you cannot grow your own, and selling it is illegal. I suppose it's alright if it descends from the heavens like manna.

Denver is a top outlet for them, so no wonder he's having a good day.

When he is around his old buddies, he talks like this, but he doesn't really talk like that when he is just around us. We think he is a closet Obama supporter!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my DU friends!
