Ditto. For all the bickering and complaining, we're all here for the same reason--passion for pinball.

I've been lucky enough to meet some of you at a couple of events this past year or while buying/selling parts & games, and I've thoroughly enjoyed chatting with everyone in person.

Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels

I'm thankful for Pinball Life

Today I am thankful for Lyman F***** Sheats! Code dropping right before the long weekend. A God among pinball mortals!

I am thankful that I have a lot of great things in my life: health, good standard of living, a great wife and sons who have grown up to be people I am proud of.

I am thankful also that pinball is around, I have a lot of fun with it, like it a lot and am getting to know the people online and it is nice to be part of the community. Plus it is really nice to have something where people are not (mostly) screaming at me about some injustice or another, or yelling at me because I am not screaming about some injustice or another.

Fellow douchebags

I'm thankful for my friends and family, that I have a job that provides the means to support my family and have some money left over to pump into expensive hobbies. I'm thankful for the (good) people on pinside who are willing to help a guy out with a problem (Dirtflipper, LTG and Clay especially).

But most of all, I'm thankful that my Dad has bought some more time and that I get to have him in my life for a while longer (long story).

I wish all of you a happy holiday season.

I'm thankful for my family and our health. Also for Robin providing us an invaluable service and having all you guys in this community. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

I'm thankful I can try and help make pinball a little bit better.

Happy Thanksgiving !

LTG : )

You called?

That pinball is alive and kick'n and going where it is going.
In 2009 I visualized making a live with pinball games out before owning one,
I put out my 18th pinball machine and don't work computer gigs anymore.

I'm thankful for family, health, home, Stern, Mopar and the upcoming election.

True for life & pinball.

I'm thankful for getting my TAFG back from Chris tomorrow! HEPpy Thanksgiving!

I was going to say..... sounds like a sales pitch for "pinball life" TERRY ... you readin this! HA

I'm thankful that after 30 years I'm still here and in one piece....period!

Thankful for everything I have and all the things I don't have.

Playing for 47 years, and owning for 44.....Its kept me sane or insane...not sure.

I am thankful for Pinside and you guys and gals. Its kept me going. I am very grateful.

I'm thankful for my health, family, and friends. This hobby has been a great distraction from work and have made some new friends. Life is good. Love the silverball!

At this moment I am thankful for dogfish ale and beelzeboob.

I'm thankful that I have a healthy happy family.

I'm happy I jumped back into this hobby a few years ago and found Pinside. I've made a lot of new friends and played alot of pinball.

2015 has been a great year for me

So much has been going on, so much has changed

This year has been, and continues to be, awesome

I am thankful I had 45 years with my dad who passed in March. He was larger than life to me and I miss him every day. I am thankful I had great parents who are mostly responsible for where I am now. Also thankful for great folks in the pinball hobby.

Hey! That's me!!!

Don't make me get all emotional, now. I am NOT taking the day off from breaking your teal-colored balls.

That's exactly how long I had my dad for. We're a lucky couple of guys, brother, and I'm raising a glass to your dad today.

As for me, I'm thankful to have made it to 51, to have recently found such an incredible hobby, to have the greatest woman in the world for a wife, and for all the wonderful friends I've made on Pinside. (Or at least they act like they're my friends when I'm buying... )

As for Pinside, I'm thankful for the more reasonable moderation around here lately. It's been duly noted and is much appreciated. Great work, mods!

I am thankful that pinball is in my life.

Happy Turkey Day

Thankful for family, friends and good health.

I'm thankful I was able to buy my A-title games at $1500 a pop back in the 90's, instead of at $8K now.

That would suck...

gratitude. its one of my pet peaves. so many in our world lack any type of gratitude.

I am truly grateful every day. not just today for a healthy family. a nice home, a great job. my lovely wife who thinks I am the greatest thing since sliced bread. my wonderful kids. my daughter, hannah who at 23 has already done more in her life than I have at almost 50. my sons, Malcolm, who can see things as they really are. seth, who at 8 can build anything without instructions. mickey, who is the funniest person I have ever met. I am also grateful that I am able to enjoy my life long dream of owning my own pinball machines.
I am grateful for all the wonderful people I have met because of pinball. lastly, I am grateful to all who have the courage to defend and protect freedom every day. (sorry for the rant, the scotch and soda are really kicking in.) happy thanksgiving to all.
long live the silver ball! oh, kanada, best thread you have started yet. bravo Zulu man.

I am thankful for Kristin, my wife, for running our pinball business. I am also thankful for all of our customers and all the pinheads I have met over the last couple of years.

I have gratitude for existence, our sun, our planet, life, evolution, conciousness, intelligence, health, being here now rather than some crappy place and/or a crappier time, reason, science, medicine, modern conveniences, abundant entertainment, freedom, humor, family, friends, happiness, and last but not least, pinball!

I am thankful for rotating beacons, a lighted ramp & the potential for a possible smoke machine...
