I thought opossum was the "other" white meat. :D
Makes me wonder how many carbs a 5 pound opossum has in it? Knowing me though I'd probably make a pet out of it and name him George...

No carbs. 188 calories per 3oz 9grams of fat around 25g of protein.
 
Cool! I didn't know opossum was high in protein:laughing:. I think it would be better to bake them than to fry. On older squirrels that are a little tough you can slow bake them while wrapped in foil and then fry them up and they will be tender, yet still have that fried squirrel taste. I'm thinking that might work on opossum- yum, yum.
I seen where someone had an armadillo (opossum on a half shell) out on a grill. I wonder if that's white meat also?
 
A lot of that was just tongue in cheek goofiness, but I heard the key is to clean them out with good food a week or two before you eat them. As far as an armadillo goes, I don't want to even touch one- they are carriers of leprosy.:sick2:

That's true about the squirrel though and you can do chicken that way or partially boil it before frying to ensure it gets fully cooked without bruising the spices in the batter. Golden brown, tender and juicy- my wife likes mine better than kfc. I like popeye's

I saw a comic on fb a while back when I was on it.
A woman threw a coin into a wishing well and made a wish to become desirable to men.
Poof!- she was turned into this beautiful new bass boat on a trailer ready to be hitched up and taken to the water.
The actual picture of it all got a lol from me
 
A blonde one time was afraid that her mechanic was going to take advantage of her, but was relieved when he said he only had to replace the muffler bearing.
 
This is not a joke per se but it's still really funny. An Ikea store in Spain ran a contest where the public had the opportunity to name the street next to the store. For those unfamiliar with Ikea, it's a furniture store where you buy a kit and assemble it at home. Naturally the winning entry for the street name, when translated into English, means "I'm missing a screw."
 
Tired of his constantly rising liability insurance rates, an OBGYN started training to become a mechanic. After two years of schooling he took his final exam on rebuilding a motor. He passed with ease.

Upon receiving his diploma the instructor congratulated him and said - I've seen a lot of mechanics rebuild a motor, but I've never seen anyone do it with their hands and arms stretching through the exhaust system.
 
You know it was so cold in DC the other day I saw a politician with his hands in his own pockets……

Buh-dum-shpeeee!

Hands……in his own……pockets……get it? Oh never mind.

Where should you go in a room if you're cold?
A corner, it's usually 90 degrees……

What do dentists call x-rays?
Tooth pix

Can a kangaroo jump higher than the empire state building?
Of course, the empire state building can't jump.

Do you know why you never see elephants hiding in trees?
Because they're very good at it……

Lol, I like yall's jokes better than my own.
Edit: I got a few more blonde jokes, Auburn jokes and a true very short story about something a parts runner was sent to get. Although I was a parts runner also at that time it wasn't me- although it could have been because I never heard of a fl. tube either.

Its's not uncommon on a big construction job, for a journeyman to send a new kid for a board stretcher.

It'll go something like this:
Bill, "Damn, I cut this a little too short. Johnny, go get me a board stretcher. Frank has one, he's up on the third floor."
Frank, "Oh the board stretcher? What happen Bill cut his board short again?.. Well I don't have it, Pete came by yesterday and took it. He's up on the top deck."
Pete, "The board stretcher? I just sent it over to Freddie, his helper took it." ...

We had the new kid in the tool van looking for the sky hooks for half an hour.

Someone my dad worked with was told to get a sky hook. He brought back a crane.
Doing electrical work, journeymen usually ask an apprentice to get the wire stretcher (the apprentice is the wire stretcher) or tells them about the free linesman pliers in the bucket of soap/wire pulling lubricant.
 
Lol, those are some good ones about the sky hook and the board stretcher. That reminded me of a certain fellow I knew- his cousin was telling me about a time when that fellow was at work on what I reckon was a construction site. He went to the porta-john to smoke something illegal and they hooked up a crane cable and lifted it up about 50 ft with him still in there not knowing what was going on. He probably felt a jolt, but just probably thought what he was smoking was some good stuff. He went to step out and he grabbed ahold of the door just in time and pulled himself back in. I was told they had him screeming like a girl till they put him back down.
Now that was a risky and cruel prank, but seeing no one got hurt it was kinda humorous.
