What the hell is up with the skunk population?! There must be something in the water (God know we've gotten enough of it this year) or something, because they seem to be breeding like crazy. Or, at least the ones that are smart enough to stay away from the roads. Becuase the other dumb skunks find their way onto said roadways, and, as we know, the roadways tend to be busy with more than just skunk traffic.

What I'm saying is, I've been driving past an awful lot of goddamn skunk roadkill lately. And I feel sorry for those people who happen to live in houses downwind of a big fresh one.

OK, you might think I'm a little weird for thinking this, but skunk odor isn't quite that bad. In light doses, of course...almost kinda sweet in a pungent kinda way. But, pure fresh skunk extract is downright nasty, as we all know.

Heh..."polecat".
