The funny Thanksgiving stories

This is a correspodance I had today with my friend Mark Franko. I forgot about this good story and his is funnier still.

[13:07] kindarandom_now: buddy!
[13:15] kingoffringeville: Hello
[13:15] kingoffringeville: How was your weekend?
[13:16] kindarandom_now: ummm....a combination of relaxation, boredom, and entertaining :)
[13:16] kindarandom_now: and only a couple of decent stories to tell from Thanksgiving.
[13:16] kingoffringeville: Sounds like an interesting combo
[13:17] kindarandom_now: yea...each day was filled with a little bit of each
[13:17] kingoffringeville: Holiday stories are the best
[13:17] kindarandom_now: yea...I realize I do have a good one now from Thanksgiving.
[13:17] kindarandom_now: it's more of a visual story though.
[13:18] kingoffringeville: I see.
[13:18] kingoffringeville: I have a few interesting stories too.
[13:18] kindarandom_now: I will tell you mine anyway if you tell me yours :)
[13:18] kingoffringeville: Wish I was not so busy this week we could go out and swap stories
[13:18] kindarandom_now: ahhh...yea...that's too bad
[13:22] kingoffringeville: Are you going to share your story?
[13:32] kindarandom_now: you see I was going to call you this weekend, but I think that you are with your guy...I know how that is not true, but I know that how friends think when their friends start dating :)
[13:32] kindarandom_now: ahh
[13:32] kindarandom_now: my story
[13:33] kindarandom_now: we kind of had an impromptu meeting
[13:33] kindarandom_now: and I need to send a courier quick...so one sec
[13:37] kindarandom_now: ok, so the only real good story is that my sister had Thanksgiving at her house this year
[13:37] kindarandom_now: and so she invited over everyone
[13:37] kindarandom_now: her mother-in-law, father-in-law, sister-in-law and her kids and my family. Well there was a TON of food
[13:37] kindarandom_now: so it was all set up in the kitchen Buffet Style and so everyone
[13:38] kindarandom_now: just took their plates, filled them up, and started to eat as they sat down
[13:38] kindarandom_now: my mom was sitting directly in front of me, and when she sat down I saw
[13:40] kindarandom_now: a pious kind of look cross over her face as she
[13:41] kindarandom_now: looked around at everyone and then she bent her head down and closed her eyes, and looked up righteously (sp?)
[13:41] kindarandom_now: so I asked her, "So mom did you just pray?"
[13:41] kindarandom_now: and she said, "Yes, I just said a prayer for myself"
[13:41] kindarandom_now:lol
[13:41] kindarandom_now: my sister recovered nicely but it was so great to see how she can create drama out of any moment.
[13:42] kindarandom_now: and now your turn
[13:42] kingoffringeville: My sister is offically trailer trash
[13:42] kindarandom_now: lol
[13:43] kingoffringeville: Met her boyfriend who is 58 yrs old, my mother is 57. My sister is only 34
[13:43] kingoffringeville: She is apparently engaged to this man but she did not tell me or my other sister about it.
[13:43] kingoffringeville: The guy bought the ring in a gas station for $3.99
[13:44] kindarandom_now: you are lying
[13:44] kingoffringeville: he told her he would buy her a better ring later but she said she likes the ring and would rather have a 4x4.
[13:44] kingoffringeville: She will be living in upstate NY with the other hillbillies in Jan
