Welcome, everybody. This is not a normal episode. Michael and I decided that during the week of Thanksgiving, we just threw a little short episode out there. And Michael, I want to start with things that we're thankful for. The price of crude and natural gas is higher than it's been in 13 years. So thankful for that.

Yeah. Well, we're also thankful that it's that doesn't keep going higher. Right. Like, it's at a, it's at a good spot now, I think.

It's at a good spot. OGGN has grown. Our people have stayed healthy through the pandemic. Very thankful for that.

And even things like,

you know, life is starting to get back to normal a little bit more, super thankful for that.

But since this is Thanksgiving, there's a couple of things that people may not know about Thanksgiving, which I think is kind of cool. One is when you look at the energy that it takes

to make a normal Thanksgiving dinner here in the United States,

that amount of energy is equal to the about 644 million kilowatts.

So if you do the math on the number of people that eat Thanksgiving dinner here in the U.S. and how much energy I use,

that's enough energy to fuel a normal laptop for two years.

So while you're eating your dinner, think about the energy that was given to you by the oil and gas industry to make your Thanksgiving dinner even possible. The other thing I think is really cool, Michael, is that did you know that turkey wasn't even on the first Thanksgiving menu? Yeah, well, no, I think I heard about that. It wasn't real. Well, the first Thanksgiving was a long time ago, right?

I don't even know if they had turkeys back then.

Yeah.

I wasn't born.

You and I weren't born yet. We were close. We were not. Yeah, that's right. I guess 1,600's the first Thanksgiving. Something like that, yeah. No turkeys. So what did they have if they didn't have to?

Venison, which is deer meat, duck, goose, oysters, lobster, eel, and fish.

Remember, they're on the Upper East Coast.

It's, it's fun. You know, here in Texas, you don't have to explain that venison is deer meat. Right. We already know that. The other thing is the cranberries were actually eaten as a dessert, which I cannot imagine. If you've ever had a raw cranberry, they're super sour. Well, surely they put some sugar in there with them, right? They had that. I mean, maybe the Indians helped them with that, right? A little bit of honey with the cranberries. Right, right, right, something like that. They must have. They must have. They're tart. Yeah, and then the pumpkins weren't a pie. They ate the pumpkin as a gourd as a squash, which a lot of the world does that.

So anyway, so big difference between the first Yeah, and then the pumpkins weren't a pie. They ate the pumpkin as a gourd as a squash, which is actually a lot of the world does that.

So anyway, so big difference between the first Thanksgiving and now, but just thankful for all our listeners, all our new listeners, all our existing listeners.

What else do we do, Michael?

Well, so do you want to talk about the turkey?
