So my in-laws (not to be mistaken with the out laws) have this fantastically awful tradition of singing a turkey song that I’m pretty sure they collectively made up. I have, in more recent years, seen others perform it on YouTube and yet it somehow misses the simultaneously comedic and melancholy way that they perform it. Without any further ado hear are the lyrics to the song:

Tillet vs Shrek
Shrek has been a pop culture phenom for over 20 years now, but did you ever notice how much he looks like the old wrestler Maurice Tillet?
Guys, I need prayer for a friend of mine.
He only believes 12.5% of the Bible. He told me he is an eighth theist.
We just finished building a prayer wall at Lost and Found. We want to encourage you to read the prayers on the wall and pray about them. We also want you to place your own prayers on the wall with the knowledge that others will then be praying for you.
Who’s your favorite vampire?
I was recently asked that very question. I responded that it was the one from Sesame Street. They tried to tell me he doesn’t count, but I assured them he does.
Do Transformers get car insurance or health insurance?
I loved Transformers as a kid, but their toys were out my parents’ price range when I was growing up. I did have a couple Gobots and I used to pretend that my tinker toys could make cool Transformers, but that fantasy always fell flat the moment one of my friends would show up with Optimus Prime or Starscream. Now as a middle aged adult I’m well passed complaining about how expensive toys are. Now I complain about the cost of health insurance. My 2023 health insurance premiums went up 40% but I’m expecting to pay 30% less than the previous year. I won’t have any money left for food or mortgage so I’ll probably die half way through the year.

Why did the phone wear glasses?
Because it lost its contacts.
Some of you may have noticed that we are temporarily having some phone problems. We actually use VOIP phones which has specific requirements from our internet connection. Our internet service provider has, unfortunately, broken our phones. We are in the process of making some changes to get everything working correctly again, but it will like take till the 18th to complete. In the meantime we have all of our phone lines forwarded to just one cellphone. We are trying our best to respond to everyone as quickly as possible, and we appreciate everyone’s continued patience while we manage this process.
As I continue to get older…
I have started to wonder what kinds of textspeak I will use as a senior citizen. The following is a brief list of what I have come up with so far:
BFF: Best Friend Fainted
BYOT: Bring Your Own Teeth
CBM: Covered by Medicare
FWBB: Friend with Beta-blockers
LMDO: Laughing My Dentures Out
GGPBL: Gotta Go, Pacemaker Battery Low!
Wabbit Season…Duck Season…
We have had lots of opportunity to be a blessing to those struggling with the Medicare Gap! This month alone we have helped approximately 70 community members that have fallen into the gap. That is in addition to all the other things we do to try and help including our essential meds, our work with the Sheep Clinic, and even just helping people get meds for less than their copays. We’ve helped multiple cancer patients save over a thousand dollars each this month just by providing them meds at our cost instead of the price their insurance requested.
You may think it’s disgusting…but it’s LEGO SNOT!
We have lots of activities coming up including a Lost and Found field trip, our first rom-com movie, and a LEGO SNOT competition.
This Tuesday Lost and Found will be at the Penn Hills Senior Center talking about medication compliance and different strategies and systems that can be employed. It will hopefully be more fun than the field trip when my fifth grade class went to a funeral home. When we got there the funeral director attempted to open with a joke
Did you hear that the pope got the bird flu?
Apparently he got it from a cardinal.
So as you may have guessed from our opening joke, we have our flu vaccine in stock. The last couple of years pharmacies have generally run out of inventory pretty quickly, so stop in and get yours soon.
