Well Gobble and Waddle are two lucky birds
For Thanksgiving dinner they will not be served
They’ll go back to school
Will think themselves cool
And the Badge of Elite on them be conferred
The President of the United Stated pardons a turkey as a lighthearted tradition that began with Abraham Lincoln sparing a turkey at his son's request and was made official in 1989 by President George H.W. Bush.
Today, the President officially "pardons" one or two turkeys each year, saving them from the Thanksgiving dinner table and allowing them to live out their lives, often at a farm or zoo.
After being pardoned, this year’s turkeys, Gobble and Waddle, will return to North Carolina State University to live under the care of the Prestage Department of Poultry Science.
They will be transported back after their pardon ceremony and will reside at the university for the rest of their lives.
Before the pardon ceremony, the birds stayed overnight at the Willard InterContinental Hotel in Washington, D.C.
I love champagne and paper planes
On which to fly so far away
I got my ticket, I’m on board
And I’ll be back some other day
When life gets tough, it always does
When things go wrong, they always do
I know that I can hitch a ride
In nature’s liquid rendezvous
Oh my champagne and paper planes
An intercontinental flight
Oh my champagne and paper planes
We’ll find a way to make it right
Sometimes, we need to get away
Sometimes, it isn’t just for me
A friend may come or maybe two
I like a little company
When life gets tough, it always does
When things go wrong, they always do
I know that I can hitch a ride
In nature’s liquid rendezvous
I love champagne and paper planes
On which to fly so far away
I got, my ticket, I’m on board
And I’ll be back some other day
Yes, I’ll be back some other day!
Should I be jealous of the sun
Forever it will know the sky
Its passion in a fiery rage
Is never slighted to my eye
To see the world at every stage
Must surely be of valued fare
To warm the days of creatures all
With intercontinental flair
With countless visions set to oil
In paintings that the world has known
It counters with its dusk and dawn
Creating paintings of its own
But then I think it still must cope
With clouds and rain to foil its show
So such is life we all must bear
Should I be jealous, I say no
We should spend Christmas
In Paris this year with Jean
Christmas in Paris?
Spectacular plan
Let's buy the tickets and call
Early and call Jean
Just then Tommy turned
To them loaning his senses
"I HOPE I'M GOING!"
"Intercontinental
Paris - Le Grand great!"
"We need plan tickets."
Christmas in Paris
With joyful friends Jean Paul and
Laurent Paul hurrah!
I can hardly wait
Razzle dazzle Joan screamed hurrah!
Razzle dazzle day!

What is your introduction?
Are you a snake in the eagle's shadow or a youthia?
Have you oppressed your rivals?
Have you invaded the circle?
You are an intercontinental guy
Your instincts made you grow
You have dared to talk and walk
Are you good enough to stalk?
Note.Every chief has a chieftain.
Q.Do you agree with me?

Speaking for myself,
at my WinWin best,
My ideal learning life classroom
is outside
in mountain sage
and pine
and birch forests
overlooking a considerably more Pacific Ocean,
Relieved of burdens for future
climate pathology.
Necessary and sufficient
for this WinWin day,
this breath,
this leisurely walk without undue weight,
And perhaps another
after sufficient rest
from LoseLose unrest.
Where I am OK
not to get perfect WinWin scores
if right and left midway
merge away
from LoseLose
intercontinental
and interpersonal ballistic trends.
The bing bang motor of a zoom car in motion is a crusted carcass frame. But ridden is getting quite giddy at altitudes over seventeen hundred feet. No air.Thin air. Must don a hydrocarbon mask then. Peel not a custard colour of skirt as it can reveal molten lava which is speckles and heckles even the most benign wagon or carriage on a multi-lingual highway south. Ooh southern climes. That is preferred to a goblet of resin. Which was playing on high volume to a field of goats and bugs . But a right angle of a deviant is not that clever when dressed in a dinner jacket, a morning suit or a crisp white blouse. Inheriting rabbit fodder from basin balsamic jam? No no no. Good to add fruit fusion and belch. Misted murky making marvellous magnification. And a giant eel climbing. How quite playful. Great. Xxxxx. Intercontinental z
This story began
as a truly mystic,
as an intercontinental
super cups championship by football,
but there are all plays gaming
in the arena of our hearts
and where final prize
more precious and desirable
than even titles
of Zidan.Maradona and Sezario.
At the acme of drive profound
in the deep core of planet
suddenly move and clash platforms
borning stresses seismically,
producing on upper surface
tsunamis,earthquakes and landslides
changing geographical and geopolitical
landscapes
felling evil empires, stagnant regimes
and emerging new states and nations
That is my love, my dear,
It’s just looking
weak and fragile
As flying in heaven papers kite.
My sense are not my senses
and my transcendence.
I have set back the global
long deep forming tendencies
and suppressed vital zest
of gravitation attractions and grows
that exploded eventually as a love
between West and East,
South and North,
Between Atheists, Muslims and Christians.
That’s way I know,believe me,
The hot time come
For love true and pristine.
