Thanksgiving is the time for turkey and conspiracy theories at the Madville Times extended family gathering. My brother-in-law suggests we watch out for something called morgellons , a mysterious skin rash he suggests may be connected with Project Bluebeam and the Illuminati . Oh my. I'll settle for for my own nutty idea that along with its overt online operations , the Sam Adams Alliance was also...

It wasn't the Pilgrims. It wasn't Lincoln's proclamation. It was Massachusetts' very own Sam Adams who started the tradition. ... Have a nice Thanksgiving.
