Jive Ass Turkey

“I wish the bald eagle had not been chosen as the representative of our country; he is a bird of bad moral character; like those among men who live by sharking and robbing, he is generally poor, and often very lousy. The turkey is a much more respectable bird.” –Benjamin Franklin.


Sorry, guys. No column this week. I've got to drive to Arizona, fly to Chicago, and come back to Los Angeles to bury a friend. All in the space of ten days. That doesn't take into consideration the two art gallery openings over which I'll be presiding in the first and second weeks of next month.

But please enjoy this clip, which for better or worse always reminds me of Thanksgiving.
Thank you, Errol Morris!
