A CAUTIONARY TALE: Sad news, pilgrim. Those turkeys the President pardoned a couple of days ago may not have much longer to live anyway. ABCNEWS.com reports that many of the past avian presidential pardonees haven't lived to see the next Thanksgiving. By the time they get to the President, they have become so plump that their little turkey hearts can't support them. Often they are just found dead at the petting zoo. Food for thought as we stuff ourselves tomorrow.
