    They are the only North American marsupial. It's funny that we call them a possum instead of opossum. They're not even closely related to the possums from Australia. At least that's what they taught us in vertebrate zoology when I was in college. They have changed their minds about a bunch of stuff since then

    If you’ve seen the movie “Over the Hedge”, you’ll understand why William Shatner is the ultimate opossum.

    It's actually good that way. It's like garlic bread. I don't put syrup too.

    The garlic infatuation started when I was a late teenager. My father had a heart episode and so we all changed our diet. One thing we read or were told was that garlic was a healthier alternative to using salt. Since then I have put garlic on darn near everything. I really love pickled garlic but I will also eat plain raw garlic cloves.
