    Nicely done, guys! Love the homage to Norman Rockwell, I almost missed the moonscape behind the curtains. Happy Thanksgiving!

    And a very happy Thanksgiving to my American friends. T.V. dinners? What could possibly be more American! Even more American than the Mona Lisa!

    Rita looks good in this one Scott, and the ubiquitous water bottle…nice touch!!! Looking carefully [for the fourth time], each and every member of the office staff is around the table in a Rockwellian interpretation..

    Hopefully those are the Hungry Man Turkey dinners. The Marie Callender’s dinners are disgusting.

    I’m so old I remember the TV dinners in aluminum trays before they started putting desserts in them.

    We always got the meatloaf ones.

    I’ll take the hot dog instead. Swanson must love Rita. BTW, love the cola name.

    Okay, I’m fine with the Chinese takeout on the table, but the Dumpty Donuts too? Don’t get me wrong, I love donuts, but I wouldn’t want them filling me up such that I couldn’t enjoy the TV dinner I was being served!

    Is that Jimbo in the lower right corner, replacing Sal from previous years? I don’t think Jimbo ever told Sal that he’d “have his job someday”. Maybe Jimbo said he’d have someone’s “place at the table” and it was taken literally.
