Woodchucks.
1. incentives to make that caged garden/racquetball court I keep yakking about.
2. Rapid response test kits for antifreeze efficacy.
Or at least conversation starters about such things.
3. Volunteer mining dervishes to dig up broken glass you never knew you had.
4. Fur collars and neck wear. I hear woodchuck fur is not particularly warm. Why oh why do woodchucks always look so frigging angry? They are so incredibly scary. Just look at this one.
5. Stew
Here is a nice one.Why don't you try it next Friday night? Don't use the woodchuck from "2," unless you want a quick trip to Emergency.
WOODCHUCK (GROUNDHOG) STEW
1 woodchuck
2 onions, sliced
1/2 cup celery, sliced
Flour
Vinegar and water
Salt and pepper
Cloves
Clean woodchuck; remove glands; cut into serving pieces. Soak overnight in a solution of equal parts of water and vinegar with addition of one sliced onion and a little salt. Drain, wash, and wipe. Parboil 20 minutes, drain, and cover with fresh boiling water. Add one sliced onion, celery, a few cloves, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until tender; thicken gravy with flour.
6. Vocabulary enlargers for your personal quota of expletives. Just substitute a new word for every mundane monosyllable you are about to scream each time you enter the garden.
7. Instant horror film footage. I get shivers just looking at this creepiness of this sly specimen.
8. The best work-out your dog can get. Look at this vicious creature. Scarface here is a typical example of these brutal and wicked beasts.
9. Stimulus for creative methodology.
10. Fodder for heated debates on "all things pink and fluffy" versus "shotgun and sling shot practice."
