I'm betting Klinger loved it too.

Oh my gosh, those are the best ever. The Fish Market around here sells them as a side item and I have been known to walk into the restaurant merely to get the fried pickles. That's one of those Southern things where you take an item of food and say, "This item is loaded with sodium, fat, and cholesterol and has no redeeming nutritional value whatsoever. It couldn't possibly be any more unhealthy than it already is... but hey, wait! Wait just a minute!!" :D
Smith's Olde Bar here in Atlanta (a great bar completely aside from its menu) also has good fried pickles.
The Penguin in Charlotte has fried pickles, among many other fried delicacies. It also has one of the most amazing jukeboxes in the world. California needs Bojangles.
bananas-yumm (but no banana beer;))
plain, fried, fostered, chocolate covered (frozen), puddinged,daquiried,peanut buttered,honeyed,sandwiched,mixed with other fruits (saladed?),liquered,cerealed,oatmealed,juiced(with oranges and/or pineapples). Did I miss any other banana preparations? (pureed in baby food would not be a favorite, however:().
Maybe you should get a really mean dog and let it do the dirty work! We used to have a problem with voles, but the cats have risen to the occasion magnificently.
I hate brazen pest critters like that. We have suburban deer that like to come around at nights and eat my impatiens and sweet potato vine... I mean, no shame at all. They'll cross the road, meander past cars, gaze curiously at barking dogs, graze unhurriedly on my garden like it's a freakin' Golden Corral. I hate those varmints!!
I honestly believe it would be a better place. I think I could be a benevolent dictator for about 10 years before the absolute power corrupted me so I'd write some bylaws ahead of time that would kick me out after 10 years.
I'd like to turn it all over to another intelligent, benevolent dictator. Anybody around here want to go next?
I would prefer to be a member of a small, ruling elite cadre, so perhaps a junta to take power after your benevolent dictatorship? Maybe dkbaseball, throaty, indoor66, shammrog, billybreen and myself. Earljam could be court jester.
But BostonDevil, if you need an executive officer, I'd be happy to train at your side.
I know this is an odd question, and I hope it makes sense.
