Re: very funny!
Muley,
Isn't it strange that the last time a man can win any argument with a woman, is before ownership papers are signed off, for ourselves? Becoming a couple, somehow makes us men wrong, forever afterwards! It must say something about us, "repudiating the assertion that what we men think and want, matters anymore" in what is called, "fine" print. Nothing FINE about it!

Re: possum aint bad
Xeno,
Possums are non-violent, it's true. As far as eating one, been there, tried that, and only once. Never again! Gray meat, gray fat, nasty taste. I would have to be starving and lost, for several days, without food! They are like furry lizards, and about as smart as an empty rock box. Possums are safe around me.

possum aint bad
they look fierce
one big female i guess scared a neighbor lady by hanging out under her porch --
had babies run across our yard for a while
this in St. Louis City.
they are good greasy eating i hear tho i never et one.
they'll just freeze -- it's some nerve reaction -- at a sign of danger -- you know - playin possum -- act like they're dead -- that's what you got.

Re: Marilyn never reads my crap
Sam,
I think that the possum thinks that as long as she holds absolutely still, nobody can see it. As Marilyn and I stood three feet away, the possum became a statue. I put a tiny paper plate of cottage cheese under her chin and actually brushed her with the edge of the plate. I picked this same animal up by the tail the other day, and took her inside to show to D.J. After a couple of false starts, he even petted her butt a couple strokes, before losing his nerve. Baby kept harrassing the poor thing as she hung upside down, so I released it onto the porch, no worse for wear. The possum must figure that we like her because we keep feeding her good food.
By the way, I want to thank you personally, for your gracious offer to make others aware of my writing. You and Abuelita made a difference for me, and I am in your debt.

Re: LMAO
Cricket,
To be more precise, I should have said, "seldom remain tied to the porch." Unlike Baby, I have thumbs and I know how to unsnap the leash! Regardless, I am sure that I could take that possum, at least two falls outta three, female or not. No brag, just fact!
