Nov. 23, 2005 Every year on Thanksgiving eve, the President has a White House ceremony where a turkey and its alternate receive a Presidential Pardon from the usual fate as holiday cuisine. The birds spend their remaining days at the Kidwell Petting Zoo in Frying Pan Park of Herndon, Virginia. This year the lucky birds are going to Disneyland. The Turkeys will meet the President at the White House. They will have to endure a long speech with corny turkey jokes. The turkeys receive their pardons. They will be whisked away in the Presidential Limousines to Dulles Airport in Washington D.C. The Presidential Turkey and its alternate will have first class accommodations to LAX in Sunny California. They will be transported to Disneyland and be honored as the Grand Marshals in Disneyland's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The birds will ride on a special float made just for them. The lucky birds will live out their days at Santa's reindeer ranch in Frontierland and have something to be thankful for. They will no longer have to listen to the Shrub's silly jokes. The American turkey has been the butt of many jokes but there was a time when the turkey as a runner-up National Bird for the United States. A little known fact is the fact that the eagle was also part of the Pilgrim's Thanksgiving menu . It is documented that eagles taste like mutton. Most modern folks do not know for sure since the eagle is a protected bird in most places. Some Native Indians actually consider the turkey the South Eagle and an honored animal. There are some rather uncouth UK writers who might be compared to the turkey. They can be called the South Eagles to give them some measure of respect. The turkeys may not care for the flattering but most likely otherwise comparison. Perhaps these South Eagle writers can be given Presidential Pardons whisked away to a place where of elegance and enchantment. Martha Stewart's house would be ideal . My suggestion is that they be required to sit in a room to listening to the politician of their opponent's choice. Afterwards they can be sent to Martha Steward's Abode where they can be taught some manners. They can drink tea , eat cucumber sandwiches and sip on pumpkin soup so rich and orange, served in a tin tureen. Martha Stewart is a woman with many mansions and former abodes. We can let her buddy -- Donald Trump decide the appropriate abode for the unofficial presidential South Eagles. Of course, there is always the possibility that the Pardoned South Eagles will turn poor Martha's home into a Mosh Pit. ------------ About the author: Bonijean Isaacs is a freelance writer and Astrologer in West Virginia.
