Now that the holidays are upon us, we thought that, rather than looking at the immediate past of sites and categories added to the Yahoo! Directory, we should take a look at the bigger picture; that is, the stuff youâ€ve looked for in years past, and which weâ€re pretty sure youâ€ll be looking for again this week. After all, this is the season for giving, and what better gift can we give you than the information you so desperately crave?
Letâ€s start with the most obvious search: Thanksgiving. People will be hustling and bustling around the country to be with loved ones, so youâ€ll want to know whether your guests will arrive (or if youâ€re the traveler, how long itâ€ll take). Why not start in the Travel category, where you'll find information about ticketing, tracking flights, and airport advisories? If you're not flying, how about information about trains, automobiles -- or less traditional forms of travel?
Of course, if youâ€re hosting a Thanksgiving dinner, youâ€ll probably want to decorate, and youâ€ll find clip art and graphics here -- even wallpaper for your computer.
But letâ€s not forget the guest of honor: Mr. Tom Turkey. We can show you a vast array of ways to prepare the noble bird -- or even substitute a healthier alternative -- along with an array of ubiquitous side dishes from mashed potatoes and gravy to green bean casseroles.
Not quite sure what to do with all that turkey afterwards? Fear not, as we can show you plenty of recipes for leftovers and soups. (And of course, if you just canâ€t stand another mouthful of stuffing, well, thatâ€s what takeout is for.)
Of course, since the holiday is just beginning, you know what comes next. Even in these economically-unsure times, there are those who just can't resist the siren call of the shopping mall, and we can show you where to go and who has the best deals.
For those of you not shopping, who are of a more traditional persuasion, take a gander at some ideas for Christmas decorating -- after all, itâ€s only a month away (where the heck did 2008 go, anyway?).
Regardless, happy holidays from your friends at the Yahoo! Directory; Americaâ€s favorite Internet source of aggregated information for over a tenth of a century."

I just want to go hang a tire swing off his finger.
