A few years ago on Thanksgiving day I was working my tail off as one of my staff was out, feeling alone as most of my friends were out of town, and just wanting something warm and at least somewhat "holliday-ish" to eat. Every restaurant I checked was closed for the holiday. Finally, I came across a Sizzler restaurant, not known for fine dining to begin with, but I didn't care. They had a Thansgiving platter and the place was convenient and warm.
I ordered the platter, grabbed a seat, and waited for dinner. When it came the plate was piled with veggies, potatoes, corn bread, stuffing .... but no turkey. WTF! I called the waitress over and asked about the omission. Her response: We're out of turkey, sir."
You can use your imagination to figure out the rest of the scenario ...
