News flash, Conrad:    The turkey (Meleagris gallopavo), is large bird indigenous to the North American continent. A slightly different species is also found on the Yucatan Peninsula.

The British Isles? I don't think so!

And blowing up Parliament is a time-honored tradition in the United Kingdom, eagerly anticipated by Ministers of Parliament, especially the House of Lords, all the citizens, and even the Royal Family, who, on November 5th of each year, all sit down to a lavish banquet of turkey roasted in a pit and wash it down with many cups of tea—gunpowder tea, of course. Then, they all go out, dance around a bonfire (Prince Charles and his mother, the queen, usually dance the English National Dance, the tango, around the fire, much to the delight of all assembled), then they all rush off and blow up the House of Parliament. It's been an annual tradition since 1605.

Yes indeed! A grand old American Tradition!

Flunked both geography and history then, did you, Conrad?
