The Saturday Picture Show, November 11, 2017

The English have an expression about hauling coals to Newcastle being futile, since Newcastle is where there is already a lot of coal to begin with. In the same vein, unless these chickens are voluntarily offering to be boxed up soon, best for them to avoid the Colonel.
While you try in vain to figure out how to save a photo or block unwanted calls, the people at Apple and Google are waging an emoji war, testing whether it's better to put the slice of cheese over or under the patty in a cheeseburger. I'm Androidian all the way, but Apple has it right.
The delicious dish of shredded, pickled cabbage that we call sauerkraut is on almost every table around Baltimore at Thanksgiving time, and nowhere else in the country. This is owing to our region's early German settlers, and all I can say is, "Danke schoen!"
"Honey, I TOLD you the house was bursting at the seams!"
When baking a frozen pizza, you want something nice and hot and drippy and gooey. But you want that to be the cheese, not the plastic cutting board that someone mistook for a pizza stone. You can bet someone will have a meltdown when they see this.
 If you have enough time, you can grow your own fence!

This is a sad one, showing President John F. Kennedy receiving the traditional delivery of a turkey for Thanksgiving...on November 19, 1963.
Out in Casey, Illinois, they don't have a mayor or a city council.  Just the chairperson.
