Jake does Thanksgiving - Let's talk turkey!

Maybe this oughta go on "The Lighter Side"

But definitively, accept that it ain't intended as a slap in the face ta all you Jakeaholicks (from an admiited Heathen)


From the New-Yorker, dated Nov 20 2006

acticle "Talking Turkey" by Bill Buford

...("Poults" are chicks. "jakes" are young males, "gobblers," adult males.)

So next time ya hear someone talking about Jake being a young male turkey, please don't take offense - they're prob'bly just talkin Thanksgivin' turkeys.

THis reminds me of a sign Pete and I saw in Casper, Wyoming: "No Jake Brakes Allowed."

Indeed.
