KENTUCKY FRIED RODENT

1. Get the biggest rodent you can find - like that Chi-Chi rat, a tree rat, or maybe an Easter bunny, otherwise a little rodent will do.

2. "Prepare" it first for about 20 minutes.

3. Dip it in some chicken batter - commercial ready-made is best - otherwise you have to make it yourself. Cover it really well so it sticks. (They hate that, so the rodent may squeak a lot.)

4. Drop it in a wok. Woks are fun, because you get to toss the rodent around and watch it wiggle. Throw in some store-bought french fries and some big chunks of green veggies like broccoli.

5. Add catnip to taste.

6. Stir-fry the rodent until it smells just right, then remove it from the wok with a strainer.

7. Drain and cool, then enjoy.
