"Suppliers Anxious over Surplus of Heritage Turkeys":

"The turkeys were being put just a tad on a back burner when we took up pork and wild rice, and we didn't have Plan B and Plan C" in case anyone backed out of a contract, Mr. Martins said in a telephone interview. "In the end we will pay Frank. Whether Todd and I have to give up $30,000 of our money, whether I have to end up living in Brooklyn instead of Manhattan, the farmers will be paid. It's going to put a stress on Heritage Foods."

Rain on the freaking scarecrow, man. Stay tuned for the telecast of Asshats Going Broke Selling Artisanal Turkeys for $140.00-Aid. And please do what you can to help-- no one wants to witness the tragedy of an interboro Grapes of Wrath.

Um, doesn't it seem convenient that with plenty of time left before Thanksgiving, these guys get some "you-can't-buy-that-kind-of-publicity!" in the Times? Won't surprise me when these guys end up selling two-thirds of their turkeys to some sympathetic Park Slopers.

Sorry, I should have said, "sympathetic Manhattanites."

Heaven forbid someone should have to live in brooklyn. Nevermind, they should just send the turkeys to brooklyn.
