[CAJUN LADY]

It was really the disco music, wasn't it?

Judy... yes, it was.

[rbeemer]

How can you be so mean, all it wanted to do is hitch a ride to the LCG!!! You know opposums are party animals

Rick, he had been partying for a few days in my garage from the little stinky presents he left me! He could have been the extra flavoring in Madjacks gumbo though...

we had a baby one waddle into our garage a few years back. a couple of buddys were over having beers when this little guy walked in. turns out this possum loved "hot fries" snack sticks and hung around all night getting fed. he came back every night the door was open looking for snacks, we ended up naming him clarence, its a sad day when your pet possum quits coming by. guess he found better food at your place.......

[Tumbleweed_Tex]

Uh oh...



Clarence?

*burp*

[stevem50]

Say it aint so.........

[CAJUN LADY]

I think this was Clotile, Clarence's cousin. It looks like this one had been eating from the cat and dog food bags I had in the garage. They are no longer in the garage either!

I knew it. MJ is a vegetarian. He threw out the main course.

[CAJUN LADY]

Why Jack, I do believe that is the same receipe that my daddy used for cooking game. In fact, I used to think he was the happiest cook in the world! Now I know why there was always a bottle of Wild Turkey next to the stove!

Wild Turkey was the first thing I learned to drink and it all began with hunting. Brings back good memories!

Wild Turkey...the other white meat ....................................................

[Jiminsav]

why did the chicken cross the road???
to prove to the possum it could be done.

That stupid, ugly opossum was in my backyard last night!! I went outside to let the dog do it's business and something was in the in the flower bed by the door. I thought it was Jasmine, my neighbors cat until it popped out on the sidewalk.

That is the second time that's happened.

That damn opossum's days are numbered!!
