Hi everyone,
Thanksgiving is near, and I wanted to share some of Dave Barry's thoughts regarding how we should select that special turkey. Hope you have a giggle and enjoy!
"The American Poultry Manufacturers of America stress that, in selecting a Thanksgiving turkey, the No. 1 rule is, quote, "It should be a dead turkey." Look for one that has been frozen solid enough to deflect a .38-caliber bullet; if it doesn't, put it right back into the freezer and fire into the supermarket ceiling until the Poultry Manager brings you something more acceptable."

Cute...He's so funny! Thanks for the laugh!
I'll remember those instructions! Thanks!
Dead. Check. Frozen. Probably. No Feathers. Let's hope so. Thanks, Joanne.
Oh, Joanne,
And I was hoping for a new, possibly great way to cook my dead bird! Oh, well. At least I don't have to shoot it.
Too funny! Everyone has had a time when they'd like to shoot at someone in the grocery store! Those prices just keep climbing. And have you noticed the package sizes is shrinking? Yep, they figure out another way to slip on by us.
CHUCKLE. Love Dave.
I needed a good laugh this morning. Kind of going on a turkey shoot at Kroger!
Judy,
I agree. He is too funny!
Mary,
Those instructions are the best. Dead and frozen. :)
Patrice,
LOL! Yes, at least we don't have to shoot it.
Scarlet,
You're so right. Prices just keep going up and up. That's why I'm always scouring the internet for our daily deals.
Autumn,
I'm with you. I love anything Dave Barry writes.
Linda,
Too funny. A turkey shoot at our local grocery store. Such a clear image comes to mind!
Barbara,
Put a check mark by thawing. That's the longest step besides cooking the turkey.
My kinda guy!
My kinda guy, too, Mary. R!
