While peering up at the orange tree Jenny discovered a dead possum on the power line in our backyard. I made a call and two hours later a man from the electric company was standing in our backyard staring up at the possum with us.

At first he only said,

"Ain't nobody gonna touch that."

Then he explained that removing the possum would blow a fuse and probably cause it to explode. And then he left. And the possum is still there.
