I’m shuttin’ the ol’ blog down for a few days while I try to break the world caloric intake record over the weekend. Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and gets to spend time with their family (although often those two goals are mutually exclusive). If you can, be sure to help a food pantry out to make the holidays a little better for someone else. I mean, who are you kidding – that can of green beans has been sitting in your cabinet for a year!

As for me, I’m thankful for all of you that have come to my little dopey blog to check out my posts. I’m also thankful for all the support I’ve gotten from my new pals in the blogosphere – a lot of them are on my blogroll over there —–>, and a few you will have to find yourself. Most importantly, I am thankful that I am not Corey Feldman.

If you happen to be the poor sucker that my single, chain-smoking aunt drags to this year’s feast, I apologize ahead of time for the rest of my family.

Happy Thanksgiving!

From the obituary:

“In his long years at Planned Parenthood, Roy Holly probably helped oversee the medical care of more women than just about any doctor in the state.

‘We were then the Planned Parenthood Association and had the one big clinic at 12th and State in downtown Milwaukee,’ said Barbara Jane ‘B.J.’ Bacon, now vice president for patient services at Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin.

‘As medical director, Dr. Holly was in charge of running the program,’ she said. “And we saw 13,000 to 15,000 patients a year.’”

Let’s see… 13,000 to 15,000 patients for 17 years? I’m sure those 221,000 to 255,000 children that were never born are appreciative of his efforts.
