Possum Pick-Up LIne

I couldn't possibly go past this one. I tried, but honestly how could I not share it?

Most of this article from this morning's Courier Mail is about the high fire danger in SE Queensland and the number of fires we have had. However, it started out with this bit:

A WILFLIFE ranger taking a well-earned break from a backburning operation got a huge shock to find a cheeky little possum hiding in his trousers.

NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service ranger Al McDonough said he thought the eastern pygmy possum had gone straight past him.

"I couldn't believe it when this tiny little creature crawled out of my pocket during the lunch break," he said.

The possum was placed in a tree hollow after a hard day's firefighting near Sydney.

You know what's coming, don't you? Say it with me, folks. "Is that a possum down your pants or are you just happy to see me?"

Now that I've had my immature moment for the day, I'd best continue to get ready for work. Hope it made you smile,too.
