I turned 61 earlier this year. Happy Holy Hell to us both! I celebrated by getting my first ever tattoo, but that’s for a different thread ([What’s your tattoo story?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-s-your-tattoo-story/972858)).

**Happy Thanksgiving to all!**

I’m sorry to learn of those battling covid. I hope y’all get better soon. _If you like a strong ginger tea I’ll share my magic potion:_  
_- get a bottle of pickled ginger from grocery store, the kind they use at sushi restaurants. This is the key ingredient._  
_- the rest is usual: lemon juice, honey, tea_

_Pour ginger juice from the jar to taste. As the rest to taste._  
_This magic potion will help to kick ass against a cold or flu._

For Thanksgiving my wife and I had a quiet day at home alone. We had celebrated an early Thanksgiving with family last weekend, because some were starting a vacation this weekend.

Today at home we streamed and watched the two Top Gun movies. It was like a date night, just us, home alone.

**Happy Thanksgiving to all!**
