In honor of Thanksgiving, we thought it would be fun to go back a couple hundred years to that first year those brave pilgrims survived the harsh conditions of that new world America, and picture what Aaron would have been like as a pilgrim.
Innovative and clever, Aaron would not have settled for one of those cheapo stick houses. He would have found a way to get the children to cut down the largest pines and made his own modest mansion on the outskirts of the village.
Unlike the rest of the simpletons, he would not have ridden a plain old horse to where he needed to go, he would have strapped a pinwheel motor to the horses' tail and beat everyone to the town meetings.
While all the others would be playing games out of sticks and rocks, Aaron would have found a way to convert a window pain into a viewing box (see the original "Pil-pod") and made all of the children put on plays for him behind the window for his entertainment.
Instead of drinking water or tea, Aaron would have figured out a way to mass produce coffee from corn kernels, and would have shown Squanto his techniques as well.
Finally, instead of eating turkey, or anything else that resembles chicken, Aaron would have opted to kill the only cow on the plantation to serve for Thanksgiving. As he chomped on the last burger he would ever taste, he'd say something like, "Turkey is for the turkeys....us real men eat beef, cause it is so tasty!"
