state manages its athletic programs and the school faculty is naming to the scandal have no links to penn state. manuel gallegus is in state college with more. >> reporter: penn state has a new collect director who is promising to most of forward through the sexual abuse scandal. more troubling news for coach joe paterno. he has lung cancer. >> he had gone for a couple of tests and i guess it was monday night they got a couple of things back and then they said there is a couple of more things they have to check. tuesday, my mom kind of called me. when it's all said and done, it's very treatable and he is going to beat it. if there is one guy i know can beat that, it's him. >> reporter: joe paterno is fighting another battle. he was diagnosed with a treatable form of lung cancer. another setback for the 84-year-old who was fired last week in the aftermath of the sex abuse scandal that has up-ended the football program and the

university. >> defensive coach jerry sandusky is accused of molesting at least eight boys during a period of 15 years. one of those victims is represented by pennsylvania attorney ben andriosi. >> my client was involved with mr. sandusky and initially met him through the second mile program. through a course of time, mr. sandusky built a relationship with my client and i believe he used that relationship with the second mile program and with the university to his advantage to he could essentially stalk and prey on these victims, including my client. >> reporter: second mile was a charity for at-risk kids that jerry sandusky founded. following his arrest, long time ceo jack raykovitz. they might have to close their doors for good, one option as they struggle with the fallout of sandusky as abuse. then the ongoing investigation at syracuse university where a case first brought in 2005 has

been reopened. two men claim long time assistant basketball coach bernie fine molested them for years when they were ball boys. >> he started trying to touch me angle things like that. honestly i don't remember if i thought that what is supposed to happen. i know i cringed up and didn't want it to happen. >> i didn't feel right about it and i told him that, bernie, please don't do that to me and then, you know, he'd do it again and again. >> reporter: fine is on administrative leave, as the university investigates. but in a statement released by his attorneys, fine dismissed the claims at patently false. as for jerry sandusky, he is free on bail and due back in court december 7th. russ? >> manuel gallegus in state college, pennsylvania, thanks a lot. for more on the story, let's turn to jean casarez, a correspondent for "in session" on trutv and has been covering the penn state case since the very beginning and is in state

college with more. we talked about the ncaa investigation. let's talk about the police investigation now. what is the latest? >> reporter: well, the latest is that we are hearing that more alleged victims are coming forward this week. we tried to contact civil attorneys to talk about the civil rights aspect of all of this. they would make appointments but then have to cancel because saying that alleged victims were coming to them, they needed to talk with them. when you look at the federal aspect of this, this may be growing, because when you look at the grand jury document, it talks about victim number 4, for instance that he went with jerry sandusky to the alamo bowl to san antonio and outback bowl, that is florida. he accompanied him on numerous penn state games. they are out of state many, many weekends and also went to charity golf turpts and stayed in hotel rooms with him. that could be out of state. there are federal statutes of transporting minors across state lines for sexual purposes. >> when is sandusky due back in court? >> he is back in court about two

weeks. that is the preliminary hearing. a very important hearing because witnesses will testify. we will hear more. more will come out. the whole purpose is there probable cause to bind this over for trial? if so, then the case will go forward. next would be called an information, which is like a complaint. >> you've been covering this story from the very beginning. what is your sense of the buzz around campus as more revelations come out about what has happening there allegedly? >> reporter: people are in shock. they don't want to believe it. they love joe paterno. they love him. they adore him. they don't want to believe he covered something up for upwards of possibly 14, 15 years. they can't accept that. people know jerry sandusky. lots of people know him. they said they never dreamed he would do something like this. and this is an area that the defense may want a trial to be held in because this is a campus that may support jerry sandusky. >> let's talk about the allegations at syracuse

university against the basketball coach bernie fine were determined unfounded back by the university in 2005. jean, let me ask you. how can you re-examine allegations like this once a case has been closed? >> reporter: it could be very difficult because as time marches on, witnesses forget, people pass on, people move. you can't locate. evidence has been destroyed. but if there are multiple victims that come forward have the same story intptly that could corroborate each other. the police department opening up an investigation shows they must have something that they believe they need to look at and go forward on. >> jean casarez, in state college, pennsylvania, as always, thanks a lot. appreciate it. >> reporter: thank you. joining us now from harrisburg, pennsylvania, is senator bob casey who is calling for a senate hearing on the sex abuse scandal. good morning to you. thanks for being bus. >> good morning. >> do you believe, senator, that this hearing could potentially prevent something like penn

state from happening in the future? >> well, the hearing i'm calling for is a particularly focused hearing as it relates to legislation that i've introduced that would deal with part of this problem and the basic problem we have across the country is that only 18 states require all adults to report instances of child abuse or suspected child abuse. pennsylvania, unfortunately, is not one of those 18. so the only people in our state that are required by law that have a legal mandate to report child abuse are so-called mandated reporters and that is a list of several categories of people, doctors and nurses, for example, teachers, but it doesn't cover all adults. what i think we should have is a national standard. the hearing i've called for in particular is to focus on this piece of legislation. >> you consulted a number of authorities, the leading authorities on child sex abuse

in crafting this legislation. do they think what you have on the table goes far enough? >> well, certainly i think they would agree that it would cure one of the problems, which is to say to states if you don't have a requirement that all adults have to report child abuse, that you can't get the benefit of the child abuse federal statute that provides assistance to states. but not a bill -- a bill like this won't be a guarantee that all of the horrors that the victims in pennsylvania suffered from will be prevented. we have to do a whole lot of other things. we have to have more education for people who come into contact with children and we have to make sure adults have a heightened degree of responsibility, but we also have to look across the board at institutions, not just an institution like a college campus, but all institutions, to make sure that when the reporting is done, it's done in a way that it either goes to law

enforcement or to child protective services. >> the people at penn state, the professors, the students, they have been rather quiet in all of this amidst the scandal. why do you think that is? >> well, i don't know, but i do know that the most important obligation that we have when it comes to a tragedy like this is, first and foremost, is to punish the predator and punish anyone who helped that predator and punish them severely. that's the number one obligation, i think, that we have, in addition to making sure that we are doing everything to help the victims. and penn state, i think, has a long way to go in demonstrating that it will never allow this again to happen, and it has to demonstrate it's going to help these victims. so there's still a lot of work that penn state has to do. but i also think it causes us to ask questions about a whole range of strategies that we need to employ to protect our

children. >> senator bob casey of pennsylvania, thanks for being with us. we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> now here is russ. with the national debt not more than 15 trillion dollars, time is running out for the so-called super committee to make a deficit reduction deal worth more than a trillion dollars. lawmakers are still holding out hope. cbs news correspondent whit johnson is in washington with the very latest. whit, good morning. >> reporter: russ, good morning. the super committee is actually hoping to reach an agreement by monday so it can be made public and reviewed before wednesday's deadline. that means a heavy weekend of negotiations here on capitol hill with little progress in sight. shuffling in and out of hours of meetings on friday. >> the meeting went just fine and i'm not going to comment any further. >> the super committee talks yielded nothing more than a promise to keep trying. >> we are going to work as long as it takes to get an agreement. >> reporter: as the bipartisan group looks for $1.2 trillion in

deficit reduction. two parties are caught up in the same old fight, one that nearly caused a government default in august and a government shutdown back in april. >> we are the dividers right now is on taxes and whether or not the wealthiest americans should share in the sacrifice that all of us have to make. >> reporter: earlier in the week, republicans appeared willing to give a little on taxes, but wanted to make the so-called bush era tax cuts permanent. when democrats didn't buy it, republicans offered a smaller, $643 billion package. it included spending cuts, new fees, and would have closed tax loopholes for corporate jet owners. aside from its lowered amount, it was hardly controversial. still, no deal. >> we are painfully, painfully aware of the deadline that is staring us in the face. >> if the super committee fails to reach an agreement before thanksgiving the automatic cuts wouldn't take effect until 2013 which would likely make deficit

an issue in the next election. >> whit johnson, thanks a lot. joining us now to discuss how the super committee stalemate could impact the markets and every one of us is robert douger of hanover investments and glenn nye, a former congressman from virginia. glenn, i want to start with you. this is like groundhog day here. indecision in washington is the name of the game and has been for years now. this go-round what does that indecision mean as far as the impact for all of america? >> unfortunately, this failure of the super committee to reach a deal to solve the debt problem and inspire confidence is an indicator in congress hurting america. especially at a time when america needs their leaders in washington to step up the most they seem incapable of putting asite their differences and coming together to solve this problem and that is wore yik a lot of americans.

what americans are watching happen on tv, what they are looking at happening is washington is they are saying there's some big issues being discussed right now, some very fundamental issues when you're talking about debt reduction you're talking about people's medicare, their social security and how much they pay in washington. they are getting concerned and this is leading to a civil conflict in this country. >> rob, i mean, we have seen the civil conflict in temples of the tea party and also in terms of occupy wall street. what do you think are the nearer and longer term consequences of this decision in washington and also if an agreement isn't reached what will we see happen as far as policy and the market is concerned? >> rebecca, political indecision leads to budget crises. that's what creates it. crises under mine investor confident. when we lurch from crisis to

crisis, we saw that last august. now we have a situation where, once again, an important institution of congress is likely to fail make an agreement. this is going to hurt the stock market regardless of what people say, it creates the impression that a crisis is more probable. as stocks fall, the economy weakens, the deficit gets worse. people's fears about the commitments they have made to each other over the years, everything running from food safety to national security to medicare. all of these commitments are the fabric of our society. when we have a budget crisis, it's a crisis because the fabric of the society is being torn. people don't know what their relationship to each other is. that undermines markets further. >> what do we think then, glenn, this is going to me for the 2012 election? it's likely to be a big issue there, especially if the indecision amounts to another question mark in terms of the economy and what happens next. >> well, as americans, what we'd like to see the 2012 election become about is a choice about

how to solve this problem, who has got a better vision from moving the country forward, and who is going to be honest and lay it on the table and say to americans, look, something has to give here. the american people need to be presented with some honest choices and then they can divide which way they want to go forward. i can also tell you there is a civil conflict going on in this country because americans are concerned that when they are up against people with preference access to power in washington. the average home is saying if somebody is going to lose out in this deal is it me or the guy with the lobbyist in washington? >> they expect it to be them and what we see out of the tea party as well as occupy wall street. thank you both for sharing your time and thoughts this morning. >> we are talking about this onfire.com at our blog and invite people to go there. >> thank you. now to the latest ruling by the food and drug administration that could devastate some breast

cancer patients. they have pulled the drug on avastin. the drug remains in the market to treat other types of cancer. joining us is dr. mala ka marshall. thanks for coming in. why is the fda doing this? >> so avastin was approved by the fda in 2008. it went through an accelerated process because there were promising preliminary trial suggesting benefits. since then we have had several studies show is doesn't improve survival and it doesn't improve quality of life and it doesn't slow the regression as they had hoped. >> let's talk about the dangerous side effects. high blood pressure. bleeding blood clots. >> all medicines have side effects and avastin has particularly bad ones. you measured high blood

pressure. you can get knows bleeds but in some women it can cause a blood transfusion. it cause gastrointestinal perforations. heart attack, stroke, kidney damage, blood clots. it's a tough drug to take. >> avastin is available for other types of cancer? >> it's still approved for the treatment of advanced colon cancer, kidney cancer, lung cancer and blastoma. because it's still approved for the use of these cancers oncologist can use it off label for the treatment of breast cancer. >> does the cost go up? >> it's a very expensive drug. it's usually given by i.v. every two weeks or so and for a year's course it can cause upwards of $88,000. yes, there are going to be some private insurers that are not covering it any more for breast cancer but medicare will for the time being. >> if i'm a breast cancer patient and currently using avastin, what do you do?

>> it's made on a case-by-case bays. you and your oncologist can decide if you are willing to accept the possible side effects for a small benefit or if you should try other treatments out there. >> this is fairly common of the fda to take a look at drugs like this and have a ruling i guess to amend a ruling. >> they took another look at it and said it's not doing what we thought it would do. >> dr. mallika marshall, thank you. >> thanks, russ. for more headlines of the day, here is betty nguyen. moammar gadhafi's son saif, has been arrested in southern libya. libyan officials say he was captured as he tried to cross into neighboring nyjer. the international criminal court

wood is back in the headlines and one of the reasons is this man. >> i believe that robert wagner was with her up until the moment she went into the water. >> reporter: dennis davern was the captain of robert wagner's boat, the splendour. it was an accident said the coroner back then, but davern reveals that wagner was arguing with wood and he not only knew his wife had fallen overboard, he claims he did little to help. >> i said to robert wagner, maybe i should turn on the search light? he said, "don't do that." >> reporter: investigators won't say what new leads they have, but did answer one question. >> is robert wagner a suspect? >> no. >> reporter: wagner admitted to the argument in a 2008 auto biography. but told cbs "sunday morning" back then, his wife's death was an accident, nothing more.

>> we were so in love and we had everything, and in a second, in a second, it was gone. >> reporter: investigators say they have seen nothing to change their mind. the death of natalie wood remains an accident, for now. lee cowan, cbs news, los angeles. >> joining us now from jacksonville, florida, is dennis da shortstop vern, former captain of the boat splendour. and with us in new york is the author of "goob natalie." dennis, why would you change your story after all of these years? >> it's not that i really changed my story. in the very beginning, i told the police what happened that night, but i failed to tell them everything. but for the last 20 years or more, i've been trying to tell

the authorities that it would be a good idea if they could take a closer look at the case. >> reporter: why not tell them everything in the beginning? >> well, in the very beginning, we were just -- talked it over. robert wagner and myself that, hey, this is what happened and this is what we say, and that is exactly what we did. >> so you're saying that you and robert had a discussion about what to say and that is what you said? >> yes. >> i want to understand from you, marty, you've heard from the police, you've had conversations. what are the police saying now about this investigation? >> that they are finally going to take the old information that was never really looked at 30 years ago and give it the attention today that it did deserve 30 years ago. that information that was put

out, the media back then went with the accidental drowning, and the authorities didn't ask many questions beyond that. and now i think what they are doing is taking the old files, looking through them, and seeing what they missed. their agreement now to reopen this case, i think, is an admission that, yes, this case did deserve more attention than it ever did receive. >> does it surprise you then that they are already taking suspects off the board? for example, robert wagner, not a suspect here. >> well, they have just begun their investigation. they are not about to name suspects. they want to give this case the months of attention that it deserved, not the three or four days that it got in 1981. >> dennis, what new information have you provided to police as of late on this case?

>> well, i just told police the arguing that was going on the boat, the tension that was building between robert wagner and christopher walken of robert wagner's jealousy and, basically, the arguing. >> robert wagner, as i just discussed with marty, has been taken out of the mix here as a suspect. do you think that is an appropriate read on the situation by police? >> at the present time, i would say yes, because no one is a suspect right now. >> who do you think did it? >> well, it really doesn't matter what i think. i think the important thing is that there is a proper investigation done. >> but you do think there is somebody who did this and you do think they were on board that boat that night? >> like i say, it doesn't matter what i think really. it's up to the investigators to figure this out. >> all right. we appreciate you being with us,

dennis. and you as well as, marti. >> thank you. >> don't forget to watch "48 hours mystery vanity fair hollywood scandal." for new details on the death of natalie wood, it is tonight at 10:00 eastern, 9:00 central here on cbs. now here is lonnie with another check of the weather. >> good morning, everybody. here are my weather headlines. about a half of foot of snow near rapid city, south dakota. on the flip side, right now, there is hardly a cloud in the sky in the southeast, but you can't rule out the chance for a storm in that portion of the country. here is the reason. as of right now, again, so quiet out there. look at the sky. satellite picture almost crystal clear out there, but it's the gulf of mexico that holds the key in this equation, because the winds are going to be coming in off the water. so they are loaded with moisture. they hit the land. the lands warm with temperatures around 60 to 70 degrees. that forces that air to rise. you pull out a thunderstorm possibly from waco to springfield to atlanta and

>> is empathy part of our dna? >> this research shows is may very well be. they looked at 23 couples and had them each describe to the other partner a very hard time in life or something, an occurrence that made them sad, while the other partner listened. then later, these tapes were played for total strangers, outside observers. >> okay. >> and they were told to watch the person who was listening and rank how empathetic they found that person to be. whether that person seemed kind and caring and trustworthy. what is interesting about the study, they were able to predict with remarkable accuracy who had what variation of this kindness gene. >> interesting. >> just by looking from outside. >> let's talk about the kindness gene. exactly what is it? >> sure. it is a receptor gene for oxytocin. that is one of the feel good hormones released in the brain during times of caring and compassion. for instance, if you're holding a baby.

no preservatives. >> good to know. cranberries? >> canned is your best way to go if you're looking to save money. you save about $4.10 when you go canned but as we discussed earlier, you know, it's all about preference here. if your goal is to save, you would want to go with canned. >> i like the sound it makes when it comes out of the can on to the dish. >> this is science. this is like science fiction right here. >> the sucking noise. all right. >> finally, the pie. my favorite part of the meal. you can make this yourself or buy it from the store. guess which is cheaper? >> let's see. um, i have no idea. >> making it yourself is cheaper! it's $5.28 home made versus almost $11 bought from the store. here is what i would do. ask a guest to bring it! >> that's a great plan! >> save money. really for all of these items, you either want to pair up with a co-host and buy in bulk and split the cost.

buy generic. you can save 15% for anything you see on this table for the most part and invite guests to bring something. make a list and have them bring something. >> you'll save a little sanity. >> and stress and everybody can partake. it's thanksgiving. >> what is your favorite on the thanksgiving? >> i'm going to have a slice of that when we are over. >> really? >> yes! >> is it someone else's pie you like? >> my mom's costco store bout pie but she likes to tell everybody she made it. >> let's see how much we saved. >> the total savings is $25.21. not bad. >> not bad. >> 50% trim right there just by, you know, we said earlier that the average cost is about $5 per person. now it's about $2.50 per person so high five to us. >> high five. happy thanksgiving. >> you too. >> thank you. we got a southern twist on thanksgiving dinner compliments

>> reporter: good morning, russ. a few things to tell you about today. today's penn state football team plays ohio state. it is an away game and the first with the -- second, excuse me without legendary coach joe paterno who was fired over the sex abuse scandal involving the firing of jerry sandusky. more troubling news for paterno and his family. the 84-year-old has a treatable form of lung cancer. he was diagnosed last weekend. second mile, the children's charity found by sandusky and where he may have met some of his victims may be closing its doors for good. the organization say it is one option they are considering. >> the school got a letter yesterday from the ncaa. what can you tell us about that? >> reporter: the ncaa is potentially launching a formal investigation of its own. the president of the ncaa sent the president of penn state a letter asking for some very specific questions to be answered within the next couple of weeks and eventually, russ,

that could lead to a lengthy several month formal investigation. >> okay. manuel gallegus in state college, pennsylvania, thanks so much. joining us with insight to spot a possible sex offender is sex crimes expert jim clemente. he is a writer for "criminal minds" of cbs and he joins us in our los angeles bureau. a clip this week that jerry sandusky gave to bob costas. a interesting and revealing interview. >> are you sexually attracted to underaged boys? >>. >> am i sexually attracted to underaged boys? >> yes. >> sexually attracted? i enjoy young people. i love to be around them. >> sandusky said he is not sexually attracted to young boys. jim, let me ask you, what did that answer say to you? >> well, the first thing it tells me he is trying to avoid the question. he is repeating the question to get time to think of an

appropriate answer he thinks will pass muster and he also is showing basically he is deceiving when he answers that question, because he can't just spontaneously answer it. he then also goes on to change it from underaged boys to young people. he is trying to distance himself from actually the things that he did and that are described in the allegations. >> as you watched that interview, which, again, a lot of us found to be extraordinary. what else stood out for you? >> well, i think one of the other things when he was asked about the mcqueary allegations, he basically blames the kid. he basically says we were in the shower and the kid turned on all of the showers and he was sliding around, blaming a child for acting like a child. and then he goes on to say that we were, as i recall, possibly snapping towels. he can't even buy into his own lies. he is deceiving people. he is coming up with a story that he hopes he can prove or

somebody can't disprove and he is not even buying into it it himself. it's just very disturbing. >> of course, this will be settled in court at some point. when you look at the grand jury report and you see the interview and hear what some of these victims are saying, what do you think? sandusky, does he have the characteristics of a child sex offender? >> if these allegations are true, he certainly does. first of all, these allegations are extremely strong. in most cases like this, it's just the children's word against the offender or the alleged offender. in this case, there are a number of cross corroborations between the children and adult witnesses who saw various acts over time, over a long period of time. and those are some of the major characteristics, the hallmarks of a child preference shal sex offender. the allegations cross a great span of time in this case. he has specific sexual

interests. he is interested in apparently preadolescent boys. he has well developed techniques to get access to these kids and he is fantasy driven behaviors so he has all of the hallmarks of a sex offender. >> what kinds can parents look for if they are worried about a relationship their child may be having with a parental figure? >> look for people who want to spend more time with their children outside of the program. basically, if they are seeing an adult who is asking the child on trips, asking to have them come over for overnight stays, even spending too much time with the child, adults typically get tired of being around young children. i mean, children are sort of like puppies. they are cute and they are playful, but after awhile, they start chewing on things, they start getting in your way, and so the average adult will want to distance themself from a child that isn't their own child. in this case, you know, this guy

is described as just a big kid as, you know, loving children and so forth. and those kinds of things should be, you know, sort of red flags for parents. >> i see. jim clemente, thank you for your insight. you take care. >> thank you, thank you, russ. time for more of this morning's headlines and for that let's go back to betty nguyen. >> good morning to you. there are reports this morning that syrian forces have launched new attacks against opponents of president bashar al sad's government. the assault one day after syria unintense international pressure indicated it might be open to a peace plan overseen by the arab league. >> reporter: the people who film this cell phone video say it shows heavy gun battle in a syrian city of palm and a attack on an orm vehicle. it says more on switching sides and taking their heavy weapons

when he'll stop being a little land shark like these guys? i can't imagine how a puppy could do something it wasn't supposed to do. >> i'm trying to catch them! geez! >> puppies are a handful as you see here. they are very investigative creatures and don't like to stay focused in one environment and they want to check out the whole place and use their teeth to investigate. no surprise your puppy will want to chew things. the best thing is get food stuffable toys. i put food in here and fill it up with food. >> it's helping with one of them at least stay more focused. >> what they are going to do it will act like a pacifier for your pupper and keep them focused and focus on chewing the appropriate things instead of the illegal objects. >> perfect answer. we have another question. let's take a listen. >> andrea, i'm katie and this is paulo. he is about 4month-old. he is a yorkie. my problem is this little guy drinks a lot and he pees all

day. he is is not 100% cleaned yet so i'm having to clean up after him a lot. is it okay to regulate his water schedule and, if so, how often? >> people need to remember while you need to be concerned about your puppy becoming dehydrated due to an inadequate amount of -- >> oh, no! we need to do a rescue! >> please rescue this puppy! >> come here. there you go. you also need to consider you don't want to kill with kindness meaning giving your dog unlimited supplies of water meaning they need to have to go to the bathroom on unlimited amount of time. give your puppy watering about five to seven times a day for about five minutes at a time. you can give them as much water as they want during that time. by controlling the number of waterings you're hopefully going to control the number of times a day your dog needs to eliminate which will help you to predict when they need to go which will help you with house training. >> great stuff. appreciate it. if you'd like to adopt one of

behavior. good advice? only helps if your family is prim and proper and you don't want to bring somebody who has never been around your family or doesn't feel comfortable with things that happened thanksgiving past. if people usually act up in previous years be prepared for that and don't think bringing somebody new will stop them from unloading their family dirty laundry because they will do it. >> some like to rehash the past at the thanksgiving dinner table. not a good idea? >> it's not. bringing in an outside guest could be a double-edged sword. they could be a referee or a witness to the complete deconstruction of your family's baggage. so you want to be careful about a couple of different things. number one, these issues are going to get out so be careful with your seating chart. also be careful when you plunk that bottle of bourbon down on the table. everybody knows when the booze comes out, so do the skeletons in the closet. >> there are certain topics that should be avoided at all costs? >> definitely stay out of that religion and politics. we are in such a difficult economy and we have got a

presidential election coming up to people are fired up about these issues. it's hard for them not to come up but you kind of want to bring them to a close, stay with a lighter stuff. sports, current events but nothing really heavy. >> what about honesty? you're with your family or your dearest and nearest. >> are we talking about the food here? because if the turkey is extremely dry and someone slaved over it for five hours, just grin and bear it. tuck it underneath your plate in the corner of a napkin. that is not the honesty you want at thanksgiving. a time and place. it's a gathering of your family and opportunity to deal with issues that need to be dealt with but probably at the big table in front of everybody. take them aside before or after when your uncle is snoring on the couch to deal with those issues but definitely not at the big table. >> i totally agree with that. i think people feel they haven't seen family in a long time so issues that have been bothering them for a while they decide this is when they want to pull them aside and feel confident because other families members are there. they might want them there or to hear the story so think now is

the time to put this out on the table but it's not. it's time to share good information but if you're going through something heavy and dark this may not be the time to bring it up. the next day, over the weekend. let it be light and fun. it's to enjoy each other's companies. >> when you talk about why you've thankful, talk about why you're thankful and not the way you would change the situation, correct? >> yes. it's thanksgiving. some people, as a ritual, will go around and talk about what they are thankful about but we are in such culture of complaining and whining you are on a down yard slope, i don't like the food and i don't like your thanksgiving outfit and i don't like you don't work here or all of these things they don't like about you personally and about the event. instead of just saying all of the great positive things that you finally have an opportunity to be with your family to share. >> i have a question. i want to throw this out there. there is a big game on cbs on thanksgiving, right? dolphins and cowboys. everybody wants to get to the couch and watch the game. how long do we have to help out doing the dishes afterwards until we can slip out to the

living room? >> i think as long as you make sure you bus the table and scrape everything off and agree to wash the dishes after the game. >> one last question about whether to talk about yourself versus other people at the dinner table. >> i would say talk about yourself. >> absolutely. you do not want to air anybody else's dirty laundry. you feel like chatting? chat up your own conversation but not the time to say what is wrong with you? what is going on with your marriage? when are you having a baby? you know it comes up. >> ration the booze. >> matt and michelle, thanks so much and happy thanksgiving to both of you. >> happy thanksgiving. up next from top chef to the dish. chef hugh atchison on why he has a giant radish on his arm! >> where is that radish? >> i don't know. we will see. he is pouring bourbon, though! >> let's do this! my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. i decided enough is enough. ♪ [ spa lady ] i started enbrel.
