My theory on the skunks is they have been laying around half frozen all winter and when it finally warms up enough they can think straight...........they lose it......declare "I can't take it anymore" and decide to end it the only way they know how. They waddle off to the nearest road and jump in front of the first car or truck that happens by. Easy to vote your way into socialism, but impossible to vote your way out of it.

Will truly be spring when bulkhead bite off the landing by you. But that hasn't happened like it use too in many years..
