Retired Dude, Josh LyonsYou two must be young fellers. I remember armadillo meat called Hoover hog or poor man’s pork, possum is totally different. I also remember when the first armadillo was reported east of the Mississippi. There was a debate over which stream-crossing technique was used: swallow air until they could float and swim, or walk across on the bottom. I think either is too far, I think they used a bridge.
@shellusa@Alberta-oilOh, darn. I didn’t realize I had that typo. I meant to say “Ruthie’s maternal grandparents are Texans and her paternal grandparents are Italians.”
Alberta-oilAnd frequently yummier. After all, we are a blend Scotch-Irish, German, Spanish, Mexican (there is a difference), Czech, and more recently, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, south-east Asian, and almost two centuries of developing our own cultural variant.

Nice to know there’s at least one English-language comic where Roy_Boy didn’t leave a mark before getting kicked out.

If they were the Texans, they wouldn’t need to put on their shoes.
