You know you live in a small town when ...

Last weekend was the Poultney Rotary's annual chili cook-off. They printed the rules in the local paper, and I knew I wasn't in Oakland anymore when I read rule #10:

"Road kills, such as Opossum, Skunk, Raccoon, or Deer are not allowed as ingredients in preparing your chili."

That's cool.

Did you participate or sample?

you know that some potential participant was just shattered that he/she couldn't bust out the opossum chili family recipe.

Thanks for sharing, mark, keep the small-town flava coming!
