Default Bronzed Twinkies??

Slept with it (a la Ralphy) all through the holidays! She had to call my older brother for the OK. He and my Dad constructed a range in the garage (.22 shorts only) that made for many memorable Saturday nights! ADAM-12, EMERGENCY, Clam-strip TV dinners and target practice.....what could be finer?

I was forbidden to shoot the gun without supervision but one afternoon I just couldn't resist and tried a few shots on my own. Well, you guessed it, the spring bolt somehow slipped from my sweaty fingers and the gun fired prematurely. Luckily, I had it pointed skyward and the round tore through the garage ceiling and lodged in a 2 x 10 floor joist. The hole is still there and I have since bronzed the Twinkie that I left in my shorts immediately following the report... The best of times!!
I have heard tell of deep fried twinkies- a true cholesterol gut bomb, but have a Twinkie bronzed, like baby shoes for display on your mantle perhaps? Only in America, I guess..
