PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. (AP) - Police say they charged a Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen trying to resuscitate a long-dead opossum along a highway.
State police Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal Thursday along Route 36 in Oliver Township, about 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.
The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance. He says another saw Wolfe attempting to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Levier says the animal already had been dead a while.

Some might say this doesn’t belong on FreeRepublic, but heck, it makes every bit as much sense as a lot of what our politicians have been up to lately.

Probably a lot safer than trying to give mouth-to-mouth to a *live* opossum.

Reminds me of the time I found a local street preacher mumbling and gesticulating in my parking lot. He was trying to cast out a visitor’s Dodge Demon. I told him we would just have it towed if it caused any problems.

If he was drunk he may have given mouth to anus resuscitation.

My cat got in the cloths dryer. She looked pretty bad when I pulled her out. I wrap her in a soaking wet towel, gave her mouth to mouth and rushed her to the vet. The vet said my mouth to mouth saved her life.
And if you ever find yourself in a similar position be careful to only blow small bursts of air. The cat’s lungs are a lot smaller than mine. Just kidding but it is true.
