Opossums are nearly witless and incredibly hideous--but they don't bother me and I don't bother them. I didn't see any in my yard last year, and I missed their ugly pointed faces and crazy eyes.

Yeah, they're wierd. I remember the first time I touched one...the one that eats at my back door. He/she was chowing down on some dry cat food, and I reached over and skritched it between the ears. Nothing happened for about three seconds, then it jumped up. Went back to eating. A little slow, I guess, in the mentation department.
