Maybe it’s just me but I recently ran over a possum.

Well, it wasn't me and since I wasn't there to witness it, I'll just have to take your word for it.........

The story says they got them at Denny’s.

I didn’t structure the sentence well, did I? Okay, IT WAS ME. I AM THE HORRIBLE POSSUM HITTER. IT WAS ME, ME, ME!!! (although I have three friends lined up to give a statement that it was YOU)

Give 'em a break -- they'd worked up an appetite. And bacon milkshakes are for a limited time only, plus gas is $4 a gallon.

Both are charged with concealing a homicide in the death of Round Lake Park resident Melissa Best, while Sherry Best faces an additional charge of drug-induced homicide.

Thanks ConservativeStatement.

I assume they are not moslem?

<Offtopic but they make bacon milkshakes?? Why wasn’t I informed and where the hell do I get one?

I’m vegan, but the idea of a bacon milkshake is pretty intriguing. I might go off the reservation to try that once.

Directions: 1. Fry the bacon in a small skillet set over medium heat, stirring frequently, until rendered and crisp, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the cooked bacon to paper towels to drain, and nibble on it or reserve it for another use. Off the heat, briefly cool the fat in the skillet. 2. Place the milk, maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of cooled bacon fat (if there is any more, you can discard it), salt and ice cream in a blender and pulse several times to begin breaking up the ice cream. 3. With the blender motor off, use a flexible spatula to mash the mixture down onto the blender blades. Continue pulsing, stopping and mashing until the mixture is well blended, thick and moves easily in the blender jar, roughly 30 to 90 seconds. Pour into a chilled glass or glasses, and serve at once.

And not just any milkshake, but a bacon milkshake.

Are you certain you didn’t ‘borrow’ that from the Hand Book of Moslim Repellants?

;-)

My same thought. Bacon milkshakes?

Driving around with a heroin overdosed relative in the trunk has sort of become standard operating procedure, or so I thought.

Why do I think those "friends" were merely the three cars behind you that completed the road kill???????

As a side note, I hope you at least stopped to pick it up and cook it.......

“I hoped you at least stopped to pick it up and cook it...”

I was waiting for the cooking suggestion. I figured that FReepers were a bit slow on a lazy Saturday! It wandered off into the woods so no barbecue!!
