The Galactic Federation President's mansion, known as the White Dwarf House, was filled with boys and girls and yerlaks of all ages waiting for the annual pardoning of the turkey.
President Lovenstein stood austere in front of the young exuberant crowd as the soon-to-be pardonee was marched out in chains.
Kemal Atatürk, giant space-turkey of the Gamma Gobble Gobble Star System, had been convicted with twenty-three counts of murder and was sitting on Space-Death Row.
"On Thanksgetting Day," Lovenstein said, "where we reflect on how thankful we are for all the things we get, we release a mass-murderer for some reason."
