A highly imaginative little romp with a quirky sense of humour prevalent throughout. Not to be taken too seriously (which I am often "guilty" of), the pomposity of the pro-Thanksgiving Americans' was a little aggravating at first, however, the absurdity of the situation in which the crew find themselves made me a little more forgiving than I thought myself capable of (except for the treatment of the turkeys). 

@Paladin once again displays his extraordinary imagination, whilst keeping everything rooted in a certain degree of reality and universal themes. A most enjoyable read.

A funny and quirky short story that I considered to be a mating between Star Trek and Lost in Space.   There are so many things about this story that will bring a crooked smile to your face, from the computerized navigation system, the gay members of the crew, the name of the spaceship, and to the name of a planet the ship went to after getting lost.  

It is also a celebration of the U.S. version of Thanksgiving and the typical American Thanksgiving dinner, and it also points out how Thanksgiving brings a family together (although not always in a good way) - and this last theme plays a key role in an unexpected fashion.  Do yourself a favor and read this short story.  I promise it will bring a few delightful smiles to your face, and it will most likely elicit a few healthy guffaws from deep in your core.
