Good morning crew,

I forgot to tell you how the turkey deep fry turned out last Saturday! The short of it is, the turkey turned out fine. The long of it is, if you want to deep fry anything other than turkey in the same oil, you had better do it first.

Val, the host and chef, rubbed the whole turkey down with a garlic and sage dry rub before frying. After it came out we experimented with a few different things in the hot oil.

First we popped in some thin-cut potato slices. They tasted like garlic and sage, which wasn't bad at all. Then we tried some battered mushrooms; garlic and sage. Zucchini slices; garlic and sage.

Finally, as a dessert, we tried frying up some Twinkies. I think you can guess how those turned out.

So overall the meal was a success, a long as you are a huge fan of garlic and sage (and don't like a whole lot of variety).

Laugh it up,

Joe

My boss is without peer when it comes to the rules and regulations that customs officials must follow. But when it comes to the law, well, that's a different story.

We were attending a court case in which we were prosecuting a smuggler. The judge asked the court, "Who is making these allegations?"

My boss stood up and proclaimed, "I am the alligator, your honor."

First thing - every single morning - one of the secretaries in our office opened the newspaper and read everyone's horoscope aloud.

"Gwen," said our boss finally, "you seem to be a normal, level-headed person. Do you really believe in astrology?"

"Of course not," Gwen answered. "You know how skeptical we Capricorns are."
