Some Thanksgiving Humor

THE THANKSGIVING FORECAST  

In the pre-Thanksgiving rush, we have received an early
weather report from our in-house weather reporters.

Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven

to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot
and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a
severe squall or cold shoulder.

During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a

knife will slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation
of one to two inches on plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce creates slippery spots
on the other. Please pass the gravy.

A weight watch and indigestion warning have been issued

for the entire area, with increased stuffiness around the
beltway. During the evening, the turkey will diminish and
taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of 34F in the
refrigerator.

Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50 percent chance of scattered

soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low as the only wish left will be the bone.
