Amid all the smoke and commotion
Resulting from Turkey's explosion,
One thing was hypnotic
Among the chaotic:
The beauty of poultry in motion.

Depending entirely upon how you define "pot pie (new window)."

Turkey pot pie? No thanks.

That has got to be against the Geneva convention.

As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could mine.

Dirty immigrant :)

He was asking if he was doing it right. He needed to be corrected. Out of curiousity, how would one go about blowing up Thanksgiving?

I'll eat everything in sight, even if it's wafer thin.

Including a hovercraft full of eels.

Then: watch out!

MUM. How are you liking it down the mine, Ken?

KEN. Oh it's not too bad, mum... we're using some new tungsten carbide drills for the preliminary coal-face scouring operations.

MUM. Oh that sounds nice, dear...

DAD. Tungsten carbide drills! What the bloody hell's tungsten carbide drills?

KEN. It's something they use in coal-mining, father.

DAD. (mimicking) 'It's something they use in coal-mining, father'. You're all bloody fancy talk since you left London.

Turkey? Blech. I myself prefer a nice down home version of Red Beans and Mice...

If you've never fought your way out of a turkey mine with a flame thrower, consider yourself lucky.

Nick Nostril		2009-12-11 01:23:13 PM

Mind you, turkey-mining can be dangerous.

19 people in a a mine in turkey.....
So would this be considered a paltry amount, or a poultry amount then?

schattenteufel		2009-12-11 01:45:08 PM

These Turkey puns are just fowl.

I had no idea turkeys grew in mines or couldn't fly...

Cant believe I was the first to use this. Breakfast Club isnt even remotely obscure.

Yes its very very dirty if you find what Turkish eye goggles mean.

Isn't Hungary closer to Romania? You have to eat salad before the main course.

How are you going to blow up thanksgiving without getting stuffing all over the floor?

This is why one should always careful to get their turkeys hand picked off the vine, and never mined from the ground. Mined turkeys just seem a little gamier and tougher than a plump vine ripened turkey.
