Possum Story

My friend Kordt went out for a cigarette once and there was a huge possum with needly teeth and it hissed at him. When he told me this, I jeered at him, because who's afraid of possums? He said it was a really BIG possum.

Months later we were driving past the exit for Rye Patch Dam in Nevada (Kordt's comment, "Rye Patch DAM? What's it holding back, sand and cowskulls?") when I saw a very large dead possum. I asked Kordt if that possum was a big as his possum. He said, "That possum could have crawled out of the WOMB of MY possum."
