Talkin' Turkey with Tim

So Tim got a job...yep, we are thrilled! He's a salesman.....everyone pick your selves up off the floor and breathe deeply. He is a salesman and.....He loves it! I KNOW! right? Tim talking to strangers, selling to strangers?!...It may mean the end is near , I'm not sure. Anyway, our man Tim, had an interesting meeting this past week at a turkey processing plant. They gave him a tour to help him better understand their needs. Well, imagine, beheaded carcasses flying over head, on hooks. All kinds of chutes and pipes removing the, surplus/less savory parts of the bird, not to mention the "oh-dear" that might go along with all of this meat processing fun. Not something one sees everyday. Especially not something a city boy like Tim has ever seen let alone imagined. Poor man , wasn't sure where to look while trying to breathe unobtrusively through his mouth. He was a bit "off his feed" shall we say, when he left there. When he could finally bring himself to eat in an irony of all irony's he realized I had quite innocently packed him a turkey sandwich! giggle, I swear I didn't know! Well I think he went to Mc D's eventually, but now our thanksgiving is a in jeopardy. We may have to have ham! If there is a pig processing plant between now and what usually is "turkey day" I guess we'll be having the first ever Collins meatless thanksgiving. Tofurkey anyone?
