Word Problem

34.

A cook takes an order for a platter of turkeys: each turkey weighs one pound and is the size of a hand – in fact, it is a hand.

She uses two sets of tongs to retrieve the turkeys from the miniature forest walled up on all four sides with glass like a lobster tank – in fact, it is a converted lobster tank.

If each turkey consist of four fingers and a thumb, how many turkeys will it take to make the consumers forget about that one summer they spent blazing trails in the front yard for their Matchbox cars to drive on?
