Thursday is Thanksgiving here in the USA. It is a day we give thanks. Thankful that we can be with friends and family, eat to much food, and go to sleep at 4pm. We are even more thankful, because when the pilgrims first settled here, they had to fight a great war against giant turkeys. Lucky for us they won. It was hard, but if some of the pilgrims hadn't been able to tame and domesticate some of the turkeys, all would have been lost. Since that time, it was discovered the turkeys were quite delicious, so we don't use them in turkey jousts anymore. Here are some videos reenacting some of the turkey battles.

Turkeys can be dangerous!
The End.

I went to a Q and A screening of "Ratatouille" the other night. This quote was funny:
"Brad Bird with Pixar is like playing "Doom" in God Mode."

Haha!!WoW!!That's so cool!!!!

Makes me think of days spent in arcades playing "Joust" :)
I'd eat that turkey , it looks colorful and delicious , like a burst of talent on my pallet !
I would put its rider in the fridge and save it for a sandwich the next day
turkey jousting is a lost art. what a shame...
It's amazing that those videos survived from pilgrim times.
Also this q & a screening intrigues me. Elaborate!
xD That is so adorable! I'm a big fan of your work, btw. <33 Your style is always full of life and colors! :)
That's an adorable turkey knight =)! Very nice colors.
Joust is one of the greatest games EVER. I always thought those were Ostriches they were riding. Anyway, the drawing is sweet and it makes me want to ride a turkey into battle.
wow this is superb! love it!
And thanks for your short history of Thanksgiving... Now I know!
Haha Great work!
That is one great turkey.... but could it beat a Chocobo in a jousting contest?
Two words:
Awe Some!
I love it I love it I love it! :D And your chickens, below. Sweeeet.
BTW turkies are MEAN. In Massachusetts they'd sometimes have street parties. If you tried to get them to move, you'd rue that day.
I love your work very colorful and fun!!
Turkey stole her soul.
Now she must carry a musket-stuffer.
