april fool's joke

My youngest child loves April Fool's Day. He's pulled some pretty good pranks over the years. 

One year, it was around dinner time and he called up and said he and his wife were cooking a turkey for dinner. It was still frozen, they were soaking it in not water to thaw it, and he wanted to know how long they should cook it in the microwave. I fell for that one hook, line, and sinker. 

"Andrew, you can't thaw a turkey in hot water. It's not safe. Bacteria will grow and you'll get sick. How big is your turkey?"

"12 pounds."

"One, you don't microwave turkeys and two, it won't fit. Why are you cooking a turkey in April anyways?" Then it hit me right before the hilarious laughing ensued. He got me good...

This came in the family text yesterday morning. The Cleveland/Chicago jabs run strong between the Ohio boys and the Chicago boys...this is the most recent.
