Here in Baltimore we also call half and half half tea half lemonade <| sep |> I don ' t see the similarity . Other than the mask , that is . <| sep |> Its just a prank broI feel stupid again <| sep |> Awesome ! You and me both let ' s start 2017 in the 160 ' s ! <| sep |> Sounds like you ' ve put some serious thought into this . Thanks for guiding me . <| sep |> Aren ' t you a Vikings fan . what happened to your flair <| sep |> Hmmm . its something like that . The first American settlers hardly made it through their first winter . Many of them died just on the trip to America . The Native Americans helped the settlers to grow and harvest crops . With that knowledge they could get through the winter . The celebration is a harvest meal . I don ' t know where things went wrong with the settlers and the natives . That ' s a whole different story . Edit Maybe more survived and made it to America . However , only 60500 english colonists made it through what was known as , the starving time . source Wikipedia
