Sure. One story is about a turkey that thought it could fly like an eagle. It climbed up on a high fence and flapped its wings really hard, only to land in a big pile of mud.

One funny story could be about a caller who thought the turkey was supposed to be cooked in its plastic wrapping. They called the Butterball Turkey Hotline in a panic when they saw the plastic melting in the oven.

And there could be a story of a family who tried to fit a 30 - pound turkey in a tiny oven and called for advice on how to make it work.
My mom was cooking a turkey and she got distracted by the phone. When she remembered the turkey in the oven, it was a bit overcooked. But we still ate it and joked about how it was 'extra crispy' and that it was a new 'cooking style'. We had a lot of fun with that tough turkey.
Sure. Here's a clean joke: Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything. As for a funny story, once there was a little boy who thought his nose was too big.

A story for you. There was a little boy who was very nervous about his first day at school. His mother told him to be brave and that he would make lots of friends.

Here's one. A family was preparing a big Thanksgiving dinner and the turkey they had bought for the meal managed to escape. It ran into the neighbor's yard and hid among their pet chickens.

It took them quite a while to find the runaway turkey.
