    I am 100% behind this idea.

    A holiday dedicated to eating? So wrong. So wrong. It should be illegal and anyone caught celebrating arrested.

    I kind of agree, they should ban chocolate and other sweets that cause obesity, or at least only make it so skinny people are permitted to purchase high calorie foods!

    That wouldn't be fair to all of the genetically blessed slim people. Maybe as people are purchasing there turkey and trimming they have to step on a scale and if their over weight there banned from buying it and maybe thrown in jail or something. I don't know. Just a thought.

    And no one younger than 30, of course. Worse than cigarettes!

    I think the AMA should be banned for being stupid poopyheads!

    Everyone should just legally be forced to take Alli before their Thanksgiving dinner. Then no one will want to celebrate next year.

    Yep back in the day. All went different directions of course forming as soloists or as another group (Bell Biv Devoe). New Jack Swing music was da bomb and I still use it in my kickboxing classes.

    So true!! Bring on the Turkey!!! And it isn't a holiday dedicated to eating, even though most of us enjoy a good meal. It's about being thankful for what you have! Besides, if you ban everything that people enjoy, they will still find a way to get it!

    Yes, I'm aware of what became of the men (boys?). I was in middle and high school at the time. That was my music.
