Wish we could afford to do that. Roomie is being very reasonable this
afternoon. I talked to him about Dean's suggestion to roast the bird
at 275F for 10 hours, and he's thinking that might be workable for
him. We just got a call from the guest who was supposed to come this
weekend. She has this weekend off, but can't get the following one
off, so birdzilla is suddenly in the refrigerator instead of the
freezer. No WAY it's gonna thaw by Friday. This should be
interesting.

Stay tuned.
