Tomorrow morning at 9AM on Channel 11, Thanksgiving, I’ll keep up my SIX decade TRADITION of watching Laurel & Hardy in  1934’s “March of the Wooden Soldiers”  ( I switch to the parade during commercials) The last 27 or so years, I watched with my prodigal son Neil. We’ve discussed the brilliance of Ollie & Stannie using the Wooden soldiers to defend Toyland and the wonderful vegan & flexitarian(no eating  4-legged animals which I’ve done since 1975) themes of the movie as the three little pigs lived in houses (harmony) with the rest of Toyland’s residents.  Also present is the theme of homelessness as Bo Beep’s Mother (the old lady in a shoe with so many kids) was on the verge of being homeless.  There are other HUGELY provocative themes.  AND I just learned it’s NOT the tryptophan in the turkey which makes you sleepy after the meal. It’s the 4500 consumed calories  and wine (lots) which knock you out.  AND NEXT week, I start watching “A Christmas Carol’ with Alastair Sim. Also a lot of lessons for contemporary living.  HAVE A HAPPY !!
