This post is pure gold.

• Sometimes ‘forced’ by Beyonce to “Facetime” via iPad with in-laws; finds this excruciating; almost impossible to maintain any semblance of enthusiasm while doing so.

• On Steve Jobs’ bad side when he passed away.

• Worries about posture coupled with angst/ disdain for the fact that good posture is difficult to maintain.

• Current income seems ‘weak’ compared to the GNP of the US, other Western powers.

• Worries about experience of no sense of ‘place’ or ‘home’; feelings of belonging ‘nowhere,’ esp. in regard to American and European cities which lead to a sort of uncanny experience of ‘floating’ and meaninglessness at each house purchased.

• Recently discovered higher thread count on bedding indicated softer sheets; for some reason always assumed lower thread count was softer and as such has been sleeping on less-than-ideal sheets for pretty much entire life.

Pilgrim

Pardoned by Bill Clinton, 1997. Today, living in a group home in Carroll County, Maryland. Pilgrim has spent much of the last 14 years in and out of psychiatric and drug treatment facilities.

Biscuits

Pardoned by George W. Bush, 2004. Now residing in Pasadena, California under the name “Arnold Levinson.” Biscuits earned an accounting degree from UC Irvine and currently works as a CPA for the firm of Gourley & Madigan.

Marshmallow

Pardoned by George W. Bush, 2005. Founder and administrator of Building Dreams, an Ohio-based charity which offers counseling and job placement services to recently-pardoned turkeys. Marshmallow’s best-selling memoir, I Beg Your Pardon, and numerous appearances on Hardball With Chris Matthews have brought national attention to the cause of pardoned-turkey rights.

Big Tom

Pardoned by Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, 2008. After a lengthy legal battle, Big Tom’s pardon was ultimately revoked by the U.S. Supreme Court. Their decision held that according to the Constitution, the power to pardon turkeys lies solely with the president and not with state or local governments. Big Tom was executed in December of 2010.

Courage

Pardoned by Barack Obama, 2009. Currently a contestant on Fox’s hit reality singing competition The X-Factor. Courage’s amazing vocal range means she’s just as comfortable crooning jazz standards as she is belting out arena rock anthems. Courage is represented by Cynosure Creative Management of Los Angeles.
