*1254*The ORIGINAL Flame Pit*1254* (7. 11月 2010, 18:00:02) (ルード - ルールを表示する) Our Thanksgiving dinner, perhaps like yours, ends with a special ceremony. The "pulley bone" as my grandmother called it, is placed on the lighted shelf above the sink. There it remains until Easter when it's bone dry. Then we dust it off and use it for its main purpose - not as a support for a turkey's head, but to bring good luck to the person who comes away with the largest piece of bone in a little tug of war for two. For anyone unfamiliar with this tradition, each person takes hold of one end of the turkey's double-pronged clavicle. They pull until it breaks. The winner gets a wish.
Every time you have the privilege of breaking the wishbone or witnessing someone else doing it, just remember that's how they did it way back when. Wayyyyyyy back.
Happy Thanksgiving, and may all your wishes come true! ゲーム類表へ戻る
