What are you thankful for?

What are you thankful for this holiday season?

I'm thankful that the lawyers failed miserably in trying to foist DIVX off on everybody.

I'm thankful vinyl and tubes aren't dead yet.

I'm thankful for a wife who lets me indulge my hobby. At least as long as the bills get paid.

I'm thankful for American consumers who scream bloody murder whenever the record labels try to enforce cd copy protection on cd's.

But most of all, I'm thankful to Audiogon where I've stretched my hardware dollars, learned all kinds of useful information, been able to voice my humble opinion, and met some really cool people.

I'm thankful someone posted this thread before me. I tried to post one with an identical header praising my wife, son and family. I'm fortunate to have the means to enjoy great audio, but it is nothing more than a hobby to me. My priviledge to enjoy such pursuits originates from my own effort and achievement, not from the government or its' confiscation of my income and neverending lien on my property. It is true that there is ongoing pain and suffering on this Earth. Professional politicians and their desire to perpetuate dependency on the government serves only to increase the level of suffering in out society.

Hijacked, unfortunately.

I'm thankful God created blue skies and green grass for the obvious pleasure of taking in a baseball game now and again.

(And that my boys are healthy and able to play and I'm still here to watch them.)
