John Harney, PhD

Good morning, America.

 

Today I am thankful for the following:

 

Chocolate

Diet cola products

The Twilight Saga refusing to quit, or try for that matter

The Alien films

John McClane

Netflix Instant Watch

Stephen R. Donaldson finally having some fun, about five books in

It hasn’t gotten insanely cold yet, where I live at least

Video games (this one encompasses a lot of different types of games)

 

And, finally…

 

I’m thankful that I’m healthy, that my family are all healthy, and that I live in a country that is finally making it possible for that statement to not merely be available to the wealthy and moderately well-off. “Comfortable”, as Eddie Izzard put it once.

 

Oh, also the fact that dudes still walk away from explosions without looking back despite the fact we all know it’s ridiculous by now.
