There's actually a canned product called Potted Possum--I've seen it
during a visit to Virginia.  On the label, next to the 'electrocuted'
possum pic, it says roadkill from the Carolina highways is scraped off and
processed for your eating enjoyment.  Actually, if you look past the
'humour', it's canned chili sauce.  Although, I think there is 'potted
possum'... just not the roadkill kind, I hope.

I was watching a fundraising commercial and they said it was to benefit
those heavily hit by Hurricane Charley and I thought 'they need to keep up
with the times - y'all should add on "*and* Hurricane Frances"'.

As to Ivan, personally, too early to comment.  I'm still feeling okay,
even though I did get hurricane damage and had to repair privacy fences.
