Box Turtle, Chipmunk, Short-Legged Lizard
A nearly whole Turkey....
But a Vulture ate the Gizzard!
Porcupine, Woodchuck, a Gopher met his fate.
Deep-Fried or Boiled, squished Rabbit tastes mighty great!
My favorite dish is Possum
It fills my heart with glee...
Hell.... It was good enough for FDR
It's good enough for Me!!!

Possum? Um, I think I just turned vegetarian.
ReplyDeleteI'll leave a comment BOTH places, because you both rock.
Safe travels.
P.S. I LOVE FFF55 day!! My farm tale is here.

Tasty - so that's why you went.
ReplyDeleteA little class while you are gone here
This is too confusing for my little mind. I will leave a comment here AND leave a comment THERE. Then go eat possum.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you want to, you will find my 55 is HERE .
Ugh. I'm a Southern bo' and the only ting good about possum is... well gimme a minnit. I think of somethin' I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteTi's on the way to Philly for a funeral just now and asked me if I'd post her 55 for her. Which of course I'm happy to do (even if I am a little late doing it).
i dont think i have ever had possum...maybe one day....did have kind cobra once...
ReplyDeletemine is up!
This rocks. Eat up my friend and enjoy. Sounds mighty tasty. Mine is up HERE. Go Warriors. Beat the Bulldogs!!! Go Blue. Beat the Hoosiers!!! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI think I just lost my appetite, so it's a good thing I already had a good dinner. LOL.:)
ReplyDeletesorry didnt mean to be confusing - comment here and go to One shot to read a special 55 or two
ReplyDeleteHappy travels, and have a kick-ass weekend.
ReplyDeleteMine is here

--Someone Is Special--
Have a fabulous time, G-Man! I'll pass on the possum and that will leave more for you - lol!
ReplyDeleteI'll link up through One Shot.
Well I hope you're coming back!
ReplyDeleteLOL
This was a post after any West Virginian's heart -- hmm, I'm hungry.
;-)
I'll be away this weekend too, but meanwhile posted a 55 here.
Happy weekend everyone!
i am so grateful for my new diet, it doesn't include rodents or road kill!! but it does include a healthy dose of 55's!! mines up!!
ReplyDeleteThat's some fine eating right there!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, G-Man!
I'll post in the morning.
I am going to be a vegetarian from now onwards!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I wrote a 55er after four years! I will post my link here as well as at One Stop Poetry! Can anyone write a haibun in 55 words? And does it work?
Here is my Haibun is 55 words!
Oops! in, not is!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...around here, it's usually raccoon and squirrel, which might not be *too* bad, I suppose. But we also see a fair number of skunks...and I think one would have to be pretty darn hungry before THAT started to look appetizing! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy trails, g-man. See you soon!
BTW - I was out in the wilds as of late myself, and it inspired my 55, which you can find HERE .
You warned us to have our appetite ready for your Friday 55, but you forgot to tell us to bring a barf bag too. (The idea of roadkill makes me sick.) Oh, my.... :)
ReplyDeleteI'll comment here and "there".
Have fun on your trip.
PG
hope as well you have a great time and you won't have to eat possum...smiles
ReplyDeletemine's here
hey, hey! I hope the G-man will have good time!
ReplyDeleteMy FF 55 is here
Happy Friday, y'all
xoxo, fickle
Note to self... never invite Galen to a potluck... :o
ReplyDeleteJust imagine the recipe books you could create from this.
Thanks for another Friday 55!
Mine's here. :)
Hey, guys, fancing meeting you here. But how am I going to give the G-Man grief about this whole poor possum thing?
ReplyDeleteI’m fluttering by here.
Love your 55 for today! Have a vacation!
ReplyDeleteForgot to tell you mine is here. http://razzamadazzle.wordpress.com/2010/09/30/two-fat-kitties/

ReplyDeleteHave fun.
I actually saw someone stop to load a deer into their pickup that was dead along the roadside.
ReplyDeleteHope your having fun. My 55 is in honor of Munch's birthday and can be found
HERE
Wish I hadn't read G-Man's 55 and then read all the comments before mine! I've just had pizza and my poor stomach is churning! And all I can think of is all the roadkill that seemed to happen at dusk in Tasmnaia! O help!
ReplyDeleteAnyways! Hope you have a great time out Mr G!
Here is mine!
Hose With a Secret
(Now don't think bad thoughts!)
Sounds like the G-Man is having a tasty weekend at an extremely green function.

G man - sad you are not here to join - miss you and hope you have some fun..
ReplyDeleteyou know what - the Mr. Linky at onestop made browsing the 55's much easier - would it be an idea to have a Mr. Linky as well in your next 55's...? just a suggestion...
This is my first time joining in.. so I'll leave my link here as well as trying at One Stop.
ReplyDeleteHappy to be with y'all... find me here http://hisfirefly.blogspot.com/2010/10/moments-of-awe-in-55.html
I love the first pic but I wish I hadn't read this just before I eat my morning tea. Have a great weekend G.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I didn't write a 55 this week, was just stopping by to visit G :)
ReplyDeleteWould you believe they use to have a "Possum Trot Festival" in one of our small S.C. towns? One guy said to me, "I was gonna try the possum burger when I came upon a starving dog, all skin and bones. I offered him a piece of the burger, he sniffed and RAN in the other direction. I fed it to the trashcan, uneaten."
ReplyDeleteHope you're having fun!
One more. A video on child prodigy Adora Svitak. A must-see.
ReplyDeletelove the photos. gives a great start of the day. take care rose
ReplyDeleteWonderful poetry, Galen! Have a good whatever!
