    Any video of an actually possum trot.  Most time I see a possum it stops and plays dead. Although you’re old and slow, I appreciate your vitality and overall good health.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?  To show the possum it could be done!  One night I took the dogs out before bedtime (mini long hair dachshunds)and they went on alert immediately.  I shined the flashlight across the yard and saw two small beady eyes - was a possum and it then proceeded to do more than trot down the street - was actually pretty fast. Happened another time - was a skunk but we were the fast ones then.

    Just read that the bourbon warehouse that had one half collapse a couple weeks ago has just had the remaining half collapse sending another 9000 barrels of liquor tumbling away. Yikes!

    a great drinking game where players have to sit in a tree, like a possum, and consume a pack of 24 beers, preferably speights, until they fall out of the tree from drunkeness.

    My oldest just got home from getting her wisdom teeth out. She's a bit loopy, apparently on the way home she got rather emotional because they didn't let her keep the teeth, and also was worried she no longer had a tongue. I'm doing my best not to laugh in front of her.
    You need to record conversation with her in loopy state...  it will be funnier years from now

    @HeavyG - All over the news here this AM.  Here's an excerpted piece:
    "Despite attempts to shore up Barton 1792Distillery's seven-story warehouse after half of its wooden-structure fell June 22 in Bardstown, Kentucky, the rest of the rackhouse collapsed Wednesday.  

    The alert to Nelson County Dispatch came at 2:20 p.m.  

    The initial collapse of Warehouse 30 sent about half of the 18,000 or so barrels crashing to the ground, many shattering upon impact. The remaining barrels and what was left of the warehouse structure fell Wednesday. "

    No injuries reported.  

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    I read that it was too unsafe to shore up so they knew it was coming down. Just a matter of time.

    I leave Kentucky for one week.

    I left it to @lousubcap in charge to handle this crisis while I was gone.

    This person might be a mad genius. Park it in front of the window and check the temp from inside. 

    More likely that they’re a dumbazz.

    Here’s the link to our fireworks “episode” last night. It’s better with the volume up.

    @jeffwit - Better to be lucky than good any day.  Dodged a huge bullet right there.  Just glad no one was injured.  Wow!

    I was awakened one night after midnight by my chickens clearly upset by something. Grabbed the pump and headed to the back door where one of my boxers was attempting to tear it down. I let her run. When we got to the coop the intruder was still there. I flipped the door open and leveled off on a possum poaching eggs. Didn't want to shoot him so I took a rake and shooed him out of the coop. My coop is surrounded by a 6 ft chain link fence and to my (Sober) amazement that little guy squeezed himself through one of the diamond shaped holes in the fence fabric only to be apprehended by my boxer on the other side of the fence. She pinned him down with a paw and was waiting for me to get out. I gave her the release command and our bandit waddled off never to return.

    I remember when I was a kid/teen that $hit was hysterical. We would intentionally do that type of nonsense. 

    Now that there are little kids in the mix it changes everything.

     My wife got hit by a mortar that ricocheted off a house.  She doesn't like fireworks so was in the front yard while the fools were in the back.  A mortar tube fell over just as it launched.  Hit a neighbors house (cracking the siding and melting some) then hit my wife in the shoulder before continuing across the street to detonate.  She was not impressed.
