>>I have always wondered why turkeys say "Gobble gobble" around this time of year... <g> Seems kind of wierd... < BG >

>When railway was built to the city of Jagodina, there was a very peculiar ruling on the behavior of the locomotive very soon afterwards. Though the name of the city suggests something quite different ("jagoda" means strawberry), pretty much everyone in the city, except maybe business district downtown, was growing turkeys in their backyards. The ruling said that no locomotive is allowed to use its horn anywhere within the few miles of the city. On rare occasions when this would happen, the waves of gobbling took several hours to die off.

*chuckle*

I can only imagine. I doubt that there are many creatures more stupid that turkeys. <g>
