BEWARE THE BIRD

The media are all over the latest round of scare stories.  This time it's about Thanksgiving.  The primary dangers are these:

• Stuffing cooked in the bird can carry salmonella, which can can cause food poisoning, which can lead to death.
• Overeating can lead to fatness, which can lead to heart disease, which is a leading cause of death.
• Drinking too much can cause drunkenness, which can lead to death.
• Putting up Christmas lights can lead to electrocution.

So have a safe... Oh, forget it.  Stuff yourself with stuffing.  Eat too much.  Drink too much.  Then climb out onto the roof with a string of Christmas lights.  Live life on the edge.

Have a fun Thanksgiving.
