When I was a young turkey, new to the coop,
My big brother Mike took me out on the stoop,

Then he sat me down, and he spoke real slow,
And he told me there was something that I had to know;

His look and his tone I will always remember,
When he told me of the horrors of..... Black November;

"Come about August, now listen to me,
Each day you'll get six meals instead of just three,

"And soon you'll be thick, where once you were thin,
And you'll grow a big rubbery thing under your chin;

"And then one morning, when you're warm in your bed,
In'll burst the farmer's wife, and hack off your head;

"Then she'll pluck out all your feathers so you're bald 'n pink,
And scoop out all your insides and leave ya lyin' in the sink;

"And then comes the worst part" he said not bluffing,
"She'll spread your cheeks and pack your rear with stuffing".

Well, the rest of his words were too grim to repeat,
I sat on the stoop like a winged piece of meat,

And decided on the spot that to avoid being cooked,
I'd have to lay low and remain overlooked;

I began a new diet of nuts and granola,
High roughage salads, juice and diet cola;

And as they ate pastries, chocolates and crepes,
I stayed in my room doing Jane Fonda tapes;

I maintained my weight of two pounds and a half,
And tried not to notice when the bigger birds laughed;

But 'twas I who was laughing, under my breath,
As they chomped and they chewed, ever closer to death;

And sure enough when Black November rolled around,
I was the last turkey left in the entire compound;

So now I'm a pet in the farmer's wife's lap;
I haven't a worry, so I eat and I nap;

She held me today, while sewing and humming,
And smiled at me and said "Christmas is coming...

Welcome back, McTag. Love that one by Peter, Paul, and Mary. Thanks for the personal acknowledgement.

izz with a y, Love both of your quotes.

Oliver 5, Good to see you here as well. Didn't know Pascal, Fan. Thanks for the introduction.

Didn't sleep well last evening, but inspired by my Scottish friend. Here is a wonderful one from the past.

Just found out that my friend Latin George has gone to Montreal.

This gal is a singer from that bi lingual area:

Hope nothing is wrong with him and his lovely family.

Nothing wrong with George or his family.
We're enjoying Montreal.

Today we walked most of the "underground city".
You can go for miles (or kilometers) without ever going outdoors.

I tried to listen to WA2K or play something, but youtube fails each time.
I think it has something to do with the hotel WiFi.

Getting ready to go out for dinner at "Modavie".

Bon soir, mes amis.

Good late morning from here in our Florida radio station.

izz with a y, loved both those quotes.

I also enjoyed Latin George's lovely info from Montreal. Hurry back my Latin friend.

Olivier 5 Loved Jaques doing that song. I have always enjoyed French music. I do believe they banned the can can, however.

Two songs for this morning. First a clip from Dances With Wolves.

Now, a birthday guy and we'll dedicate this on to edgar:

Went out to dine last evening and what a wonderful meal at The Outback; the music in the background of Mark's tribute were two hymns. They were Going Home and In the Garden

Well, y'all, this is Sun Day, and it is actually filled with sun and warmth here.

Going to say good afternoon as my daughter will be leaving tomorrow and I want to spend some time with her before she goes.

I awakened one evening with this song in my head and just found out it was an Irish hymn.

Wonderful having France with us today, and I enjoyed his personal acknowledgement.

From Letty with love to the world
