Shoo Turkey Shoo


When I was in college, many, many, okay not that many years ago, I had to take this ridiculous music class to fulfill the Elementary Ed. requirements. I had this silly little professor man who thought that we needed to experience the music as the children would before we could teach. For Thanksgiving he taught us a little Turkey Jingle. Now it would have been okay, except for it wasn't even a song, it had three words total in it, but what made it especially fun was that we had to dance around the room flapping our wings and pecking our beaks like turkeys. The song goes...Shoo Turkey Shoo, Shoo Turkey Shoo Shoo, Shoo Turkey Shoo, Shoo Turkey Shoo Shoo. That's it. So just picture a group of 20 something year old college students dancing around a room flapping their wings and singing Shoo Turkey Shoo. I think back now and wonder why I didn't refuse, but the man was so outrageous I probably would have failed over Shoo Turkey Shoo. Now I can't even say the word Turkey without the song coming into my head and the wings popping out. I hope your Turkey Week Is Great! Stay tuned Wednesday for a big announcement...
