They could've been arrested for this. But that would've just put you and your sister in the system.

He doesn't get the thread. He thinks it's a general quiz thread.

Once, a flying squirrel got into my house.

Once, a possum got into my house.

Once, a skunk got into my house.

But you said "I have never been to a church." YOU should have said "never attended to a religious event at a church."

I said never been to church, going to church is kinda implied that youre going for a reason, an event. If I said never been to A church, then yes you're right.

(Checks whozum's original post.) Okay, my mistake.

*still chuckling at Gale being a temporary e-lesbian* :smile:

Zooby, you never had a flying squirrel in your brush shelter.

Enuma, I really hope #1 is the the lie!

#2 is false. Least of hope so for your mom's breasts' sake. You'd practically deflat them.

#3 was false: I am (have become) probably lactose intolerant.

But my perspective on breastfeeding has not changed since I was born -- it's our birthright. :smile:

P.S. I don't remember the accident with the range so it must be okay. (Not that I remember sucking mom dry, of course. I can only assume that I found it a natural, highly pleasurable and full-filling experience.) :smile:

Well, I've had a possum in my house, Tsu & Ivan had skunks in theirs, so zooby should have a flying squirrel. I say he didn't have a possum. Only really special people get a house possum. :biggrin:

Correct. I've never had a breaking and entering by a possum.

The flying squirrel incident took place in N.H. back when I was a young zoobie.

Zooby, if you need a possum, I know where you can get one. I have connections...

When I first saw a Possum I thought it was a giant rat. I swear I did.

No, that's OK. I'm not going to just flush 15 years of Possum Obsessive's Anonymous meetings down the toilet.

You were also supposed to write "Evo is special" in large letters. :approve:

They're kinda like a cross between a rat and a barn owl: a giant rat with a barn owl's eyes. Part monkey also: opposable thumbs fore and aft.

Really?! Isn't that more consistent with climbing trees, as in monkeys?

I do believe possums can climb trees, yes.

A little like a bear, no? You can't run, swim, or climb. Wonder what Evo did to get rid of it.

She never did. It lives in her spare room, and she named it "Possum of Evo".

AHA! Aiding and abetting Dr Foofer in his illegal possum smuggling! And he just got out of a 7 week Possums Anonymous retreat. :frown:
