Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

In defense of biscuits...

Chet the E-Mail Boy just came in with a funny look on his face, which is never a good sign. Although he tries to maintain some sense of detachment as he furiously scribbles down the electronic messages we receive here in his shaky longhand script, on occasion the import of the message hits him, too. He stood by as I read his just-off-the-plates transcription of the following message:
Biscuits are supposed to be listed as follows: Biscuits&Gravy, Biscuits&Butter, Biscuits&Soppings...etc.

You keep forgetting the good stuff!

Let's do have some kind of correctness in future!

MommaBear
Poor Chet thinks MommaBear is going to sneak in and kill us or something!!

Well, first of all, MommaBear, rest assured that I will not neglect in the future to give the full nomenclature due to the regal biscuit. Its utility as both flavorful gut filler and vehicle for animal fat and/or sugared fruit toppings is impossible to ignore, and I vow that whenever the word "biscuit" is ever again mentioned herein, it will be with the entire and complete notation--Biscuit, Noble Bread of Noble Folks; Compatriot of Butter, Gravy, and Pot Likker; Warmer of the Soul; Giver of Life Itself Unto Jelly and Jam and Cane Syrup.

Now then, onto other matters...Chet, please do not fear.

Just be sure and keep the door locked.
