In the 19th Century, some southern states thought Thanksgiving was an abolitionist plot and refused to celebrate it. Thanksgiving didn't become an annual national holiday until World War II! What started as a somber Puritan day of prayer is now about football and food. How did we get there? Join HISTORY as we serve up The Real Story of Thanksgiving.

The History Channel has been putting out made for TV documentaries like crazy, and one of them was about the mysteries of the Freemasons, which is something I’ve been interested in for a while now. They start the documentary by asking all the same questions that got me intrigued enough to watch this documentary in the first place. What are the Freemasons? What is their secret? Are they devil worshipers? Do they run the government? What I learned from the documentary is the sad truth that they aren’t as amazing as we are led to believe. I guess that’s just the way it is though, if there was some shocking secret that could be told in the documentary we would have heard it all already. Despite the fact that the Freemasons aren’t as interesting as we all hope, the documentary made them a bit more interesting with some of the features in the documentary.
