Title: Is there a Great Giant Turkey?
Post by: SysError on November 24, 2014, 06:15:52 AM
I’ve seen and flown alongside Santa.   :airplane: :D

I’ve watched Franken Monsters run into a map room for a base capture.  :rock

I have heard of, but have never seen, the Great Giant Pumpkin.  (Is it true or an Aces High myth?  P.S. I do not want to know if it is a myth.)   :noid

Is there a Great Giant Turkey?   :headscratch:

I really do not know.  I just realized that every thanksgiving we go over the hill and through the woods to grandmother’s house.  Have never been around to see and have never, until now, asked.  :cheers:

I think on Thanksgiving Day, all the Bombs should be shaped like turkeys.........."Turkeys can't Fly!"

When Les started the commentary, and from that point on, I was in the floor laughing so hard I could not see anything.  And that closing line,...that just put it over the top.

They can.  When I lived in upstate NY I was working in the garage one day when I heard a thunderous noise.  I ran outside to see a turkey flying up into a tree.

Wild turkey can flap hard enough to get into a tree to roost or for protection, that's about it.

Domesticated turkey, not so much.

Les's commentary reminded me of the reporter calling the Hindenburg disaster."They're hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement!" Lmao.

It was supposed to, I laughed when he said "Oh, the humility", when the original quote from the Hindenburg was "Oh, the humanity".

 Oh they can fly ask any turkey hunter.

Edit: I would like to see them bring back the claw for a day or two.

Ive seen wild turkey fly much farther than just to roost in the nearest tree.... seen flights longer than Kitty hawk by far. I've seen flights of 1 to 200 yards depending on the size of the bird and the threat they are running from.
