- This pampered young lady had left her family for the first time to join the college and was feeling quite lonely on Thanksgiving. She decided to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for herself. She was narrating her first experience in the kitchen to her mother and mother really wanted to know about the results. When asked how the food was, the lady replied with a shudder that though the ready-made soup and pizza were great, she had quite a trouble with turkey. Trying to get to the root of the problem, the mother asked, "Was it burnt?" The lady replied, "Oh! I couldn't taste it mom. It simply wouldn't sit still!"

- Here is a funny (and repelling!) trick to do in front of your friends just before dinner, if you do not want them to eat too much on your cost. Load your plate up high with everything including the salad, a piece of turkey, a bit of soup and some bread crumbles. Toss it all in the blender and offer your new Thanksgiving Weight Loss Shake to everyone. You can be sure to delay the dinnertime by an hour at least with this trick.

The intellectual whispered with a grave face, "What I wouldn't give to catch it!"
