One of few truly vintage Nike commericals, this one ranks up there with MJ & Mars (Spike Lee)
Repost from Oct..Death to Swag...R.I.P Oct.7
People swagg has come to a dead halt
It hit the fucking wall, too many wanna be diff but the same is you all
No one on the corner got swagger like yall
I'm appalled, mainstream dick suckers, cradling the balls
No one on the corner go swagger like yall?
Since when?
Since you heard the song wit them
Fisher price sing along
Like a god damn fool
a song about rappers
rapping about stunting on you
No one on the corner got swagger like who?
See its all so plain that yall can't see they just put out whatever
And the bird brains just eat it up like bird seed
So while no one on the corner got swagger like yall
Ask yourself this question
What the fuck you on the corner for?!
Striving for a fre$h independent thinking Humans.

The First Thanksgiving
In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. This harvest meal has become a symbol of cooperation and interaction between English colonists and Native Americans. Although this feast is considered by many to the very first Thanksgiving celebration, it was actually in keeping with a long tradition of celebrating the harvest and giving thanks for a successful bounty of crops. Native American groups throughout the Americas, including the Pueblo, Cherokee, Creek and many others organized harvest festivals, ceremonial dances, and other celebrations of thanks for centuries before the arrival of Europeans in North America.
Historians have also recorded other ceremonies of thanks among European settlers in North America, including British colonists in Berkeley Plantation, Virginia. At this site near the Charles River in December of 1619, a group of British settlers led by Captain John Woodlief knelt in prayer and pledged "Thanksgiving" to God for their healthy arrival after a long voyage across the Atlantic. This event has been acknowledged by some scholars and writers as the official first Thanksgiving among European settlers on record. Whether at Plymouth, Berkeley Plantation, or throughout the Americas, celebrations of thanks have held great meaning and importance over time. The legacy of thanks, and particularly of the feast, have survived the centuries as people throughout the United States gather family, friends, and enormous amounts of food for their yearly Thanksgiving meal.
