Art Buchwald's Thanksgiving column
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/23/AR2005112302056.html
I've written about this before. To try and make a long story as short as possible, Art was a satirical writer for the Post, and every Thanksgiving throughout my life, he submitted the same story to be published that day. It became a minor DC tradition. I know, I know, it probably makes no sense to anyone outside the region or the time period. Fair enough.
Anyways, with his death, the Post stopped publishing it. But to their credit, they do make it avaialble online. And as long as that link is alive, I'll cite it here. My little tip of the hat to a time in DC and my life long gone.
