Methinks He Doth Protest Too Much
Dear Stupidocles,
Your recipe for eating groundhogs left me thoroughly disgusted and appalled! I'm sick of all you "shockbloggers" aiming for the lowest common denominator, trying to one-up each other with increasing gross-outmanship!
Don't you realize there are already perfectly good and tasty rodents out there for the eatin'? What is there to be gained by eating an animal that can predict the weather at least as accurately as your, I mean, our human weathercasters? Besides, the widely known fact is that groundhogs taste the absolutely worst of all mammals native to our planet (the duckbill platypus, hailing of course from Neptune, cannot be counted)!

Punxsutawney, PAIt does seem my "Recipe for the Ages" was not so unique after all, but I stand by it all the same.

Here's a great recipe if you're expecting a crowd...

Excellent! I hope the leftovers freeze well.
