How was your turkey?

A lot of trash-talking of the turkey out there in the blogosphoid. Matt Yglesias piled on, going so far as to suggest (maybe) braising. Egads! Hopefully no one braised their poor bird. I can't remember the last time I had a bad turkey. Still looking forward to ours since we moved the feast to Saturday. Picking it up fresh (free range, yorkshirefowl, bronze etc.) from the butcher tomorrow morning. Can't wait.
