A celebration started many years ago, the settlers to the new world gathered to give thanks for the blessings they had received. They came together in fellowship and enjoyed a grand feast. But I, have a THANKSGIVING every day of my life for I have been truely blessed. I have 3 loving children all grown up. I've had 8 grandchildren, 7 that are living and close, with 2 of them living with me. I have a wonderful wife that puts up with me. I've fought in a war and returned. I have food to eat, clothes to wear, and a warm home to live in. I've walked this earth now for nearly 60 years. I've got great friends. I've been truely blessed. So extra special, do I give thanks on this day but give thanks every day of my life. So to each and everyone of you, I wish for even more than what I've received. Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
