Le jour de l'action de grâce...

Thanksgiving news (from Harper's weekly email):
President Bush issued pardons to two turkeys, which were then sent to Disneyland to serve as grand marshals at a parade. "The granting of the turkey pardon," said the President, "is not a responsibility that I take lightly." The turkeys, Marshmallow and Yam, earned their pardons when they beat out Democracy and Freedom in an online poll.

Apparently the names are given after the turkeys are pardoned. Final scores available at http://www.whitehouse.gov/holiday/thanksgiving/2005/
