I don't think that I became and adult until I joined the navy, at the age of 18. I had to take care of myself and think for myself.  Because I was away from home, there was no one to tell me how to act or live.

To me one of the easiest ways to cook a turkey would be to fry it.  It only takes about 1 hour and the only thing that you have to do is season it and check the temperature and time.
