BanJo the Woodpile Possum

For those of you who read Brent's blog today, you might have already seen this story. It was brought about by a possum that Brent and I saw last night and Brent making a reference to BanJo Possum from Tiny Toons. I left a very lengthy comment on Brent's blog so bear with me if you've already read this. Anyway, here's why Brent and I are together:

At the very beginning of Freshman year, Brent was teaching me how to do laundry (weird, right?) and I think it was right before we started officially dating and I couldn't get this image out of my head of a possum wearing a straw hat and playing a banjo. It comes from some random episode of Tiny Toons or something from back in the 90s at some point and that image always just stuck in my head in reference to bayous (the possum was playing his banjo by the bayou). Out of nowhere, while thinking of this image, having never mentioned it to anyone other than maybe my mom who had no idea what I was talking about, I said to Brent "What's the first image that comes to mind when you think of bayous?" To which Brent immediately replied "A possum wearing a straw hat and playing the banjo." I was left speechless and knew I had found someone who would finally understand me...

Anyway, I found a video clip of BanJo the Woodpile Possum and thought I'd share it with all of you:
