Is this like the Bob Newhart skit where Sir Walter Raleigh sent the boat load of turkeys to England, only to find out on the telephone that Thanksgiving was an American holiday, not an English one?
speaking of Cincinnati….pigs fly here…..they had statues of flying pigs all around town a few years ago. and there’s even a “flying pig marathon” every year.
Why turkey? Why not pheasant, grouse, duck, goose - especially Canadian goose… thin out the herd, er flocks that are almost as bad as starlings for leaving messes - and they’re aggressive, to boot! Did you know that Ben Franklin wanted the turkey to be our National Bird? Considering the “obesity crisis”, maybe he was right… “gobble, gobble, gobble”….
Prfessor, Christmas and Easter are not Jesus holidays. They are Catholic holidays. Although some Christian religions have adopted those holidays, many Christians do not. The Bible tells us to celebrate the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus on the first day of every week. Not once a year. There is no example nor authoration to celebrate His birth.

LIttle Sister, pigs can fly. Have you ever been to a Pink Floyd concert?

Just say no to tofu.

Or is it like the “WKRP in Cincinnati” where they toss a bunch of turkeys out of a helicopter only to realize domesticated turkeys can’t fly?

Larry, don’t forget the flying pigs atop the smokestacks near Sawyer Point (I believe) in Cincinnati. :D
