Oh my goodness! I ride a little Suzuki Shogun (110cc), but I can just picture this happening. I have three great fears when I ride around Lake Sentani: that I would encounter a crocodile on the road, or a snake, or a pig. That would not be good.

And the rest of the Bible-believing folks read Acts literally (Peter, kill and eat) and caught, killed and ate the squirrels at the next pot luck dinner....

Sorry to hear it.

I miss my VTX sometimes, but I love my Gold Wing.

The hospital stay did me some good--since my left arm was destroyed (took all of the impact), and my left wrist was pulverized to dust, I was on morphine for 4 full days.

That is what finally broke my caffeine addiction.

My orthopod was excellent as well. I have 100% functionality again. The only thing remaining to remind me of that are the scars.

I vaguely recall a PG Wodehouse “Jeeves” story with Bertie on an involuntary lamp-less nighttime bicycle ride being worried about goats and elephants in his path.

You must not be from the south, down here that’s known as Brunswick Stew.

Yup - ranks right up there with the story of a guy strapping a JATO bottle to his 67 Impala. PIMP hilarious the first time I heard it on the old G. Gordon Liddy radio show in the 90s.

I’ve heard tell of Brunswick Stew with rabbit, squirrel or even more exotic wild native critters in it from my Depression era parents, but I’ve never in my fifty-plus years experienced it with anything but chicken and/or pork. Nice to know that it works if times ever get that hard, but I just have a problem eating that if I have any alternative.

Traditional Brunswick stew is made with small game, namely squirrel or opossum. Since they don’t generally sell squirrel meat at the grocery store, these days most recipes substitute dark meat chicken instead. In truth, most people do have access to squirrel. The hitch comes in turning a squirrel into squirrel meat.

Squirrels can take care of themselves!

With some exceptions...

I draw the line at road kill! I won’t eat possum under any circumstances, they is one ugly critter! Never understood where little possums came from.

A guy named Art Arfons was experimenting with the first jet powered drag car. His first test was to tie the jet engine to a tree and start it up. He became very successful with these cars and toured the countries drag strips with it.

I’m aware of the colonial era frontier origins of it and so of course it involves wild game. But, order Brunswick Stew at any barbecue joint or mom and pop diner in the south, or go buy several quarts from a church or VFD fundraising stew, and I’ll guarantee there’s nothing other than chicken or pork in it as far as meat.
