We're actually in agreement there because I don't want tofurkey
or any such thing. No offense meant to anyone, I'll just have the
vegetables.

As far as meat on the holidays, it's just not a deal breaker for me.
I can have meat another day. We almost didn't have turkey on
Thanksgiving, it wouldn't have bothered me. We're having turkey
dinner today, coincidentally. All the trimmings.
