I’m sure you are too, despite the cliché.

It was clever. But too gruesome for me. Knowing what sort of existence this mutilated corpse had. Road kill has generally had a better life.

Goodbye, Turkey Liberation Front.

Ha! Poetic. That landed excellently, I didn’t see it coming like the top comment said.

Today I lernt “lede” is a technical term possibly originating from copyeditors as recently as 1970. (MW)

I’ve seen the word- or have been cognizant of the word- just recently and as a non-copyeditor it reads to me more like a two syllable word in middle English, leh-deh.

My understanding is that this spelling originated to distinguish the word from "leading", pronounced LEDD-ing, which means the amount of empty space between lines of type.

...lest anyone imagine that Massachusetts town to be fun-damental.

...we need the Turkey Liberation Front, now more than ever, that such tragedies never need happen in our fair region.
