Happy birthday. Which reminds me of something I’ve never asked. I know they have regular squirrels in Indiana, but do you have flying squirrels as well? If so, can you eat them?

Hoosiers catch them with fishing nets. We used to use butterfly nets but found that squirrels could gnaw through the fiber faster than we could reel them in. We now put the fishing net on the butterfly net pole (it's longer and reaches higher). But you weren't supposed to give away state secrets. I guess you were emboldened in that regard by the new Hanks/Streep movie. |

In Hoosier bars they serve squirrel wings instead of buffalo wings. They are actual squirrel wings, too. |

Thanks for all the good wishes and the little bit of craziness thrown in, too.

Craziness? You folks really do catch flying squirrels in nets, don't you?

Sorry I couldn't get out there to drink a Pink Floyd with you. Hopefully, it's a birth-weekend celebration. Enjoy!  |
