Thankstaking at the Dream Community


Dream Community Christmas Card 2013

It's holiday season at the Dream Community.  A special time of the year to remember the small things that make our cultures unique.

Thanksgiving aka. Sexy Chicken Party
Chicken God

Thanksgiving went much like I believe the first Thanksgiving might have gone.  The Americans had some idea of celebrations back home... of roasted turkey and cranberry sauce.  The natives made a party that looked like a breeding room at a zoo built by kindergarden teachers from Florida and told everyone to dress like sexy chickens.  There was dancing and a mambo line and a giant inflatable pecking chicken.  The puritans were uncomfortable in their paper and cardboard outfits.

Pilgrims





Amy spent all day preparing the most glorious meal.
The dinner was preceded by native drumming and some kind of chicken dance.
The puritans insisted on praying before our meal.

The custom of prayer was lost on everyone.
By the time all photos were taken and the meal was served, everyone was starving and cold.
After all had eaten, the puritans accused the natives of living in heathenism and declared the land of the Dream Community to be AMERICA.
The pilgrims accused Gordon of witchcraft.

Gordon was made to accept the ways of the pilgrims and revoke his un-christian way of life.
Everyone left the evening feeling confused but satiated with bellies full of turkey and pie.
