The Dawkins Family Home – Strife in the Dawkins family household arose when their prodigal son Richard returned home for Thanksgiving Dinner with the extended family.

While the rest of the family was remarking on how scrumptious the turkey was this year, Richard was instead denying that his grandma even cooked the meal. “The turkey that I now observe has precisely the properties I should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no cook, no chef, nothing but pitiless indifference.” Richard said.

“Now see here, buddy!” An indignant Grandma Dawkins exclaimed. “Didn’t I teach you to say thank you after meals.”

“I’m sorry Grandma, but sometimes I find it amusing to point out to people who believe that their meals have been prepared that they too deny that the neighbors cooked the food, or that total strangers cooked the food. I simply go one cook further.”

By the end of the meal, Grandma Dawkins was about ready to tell Richard to go eat roadkill.
