I actually coach rowing on the Schuylkill in Philly .
Row? Why not just get out and walk across it
That's the difference between Philly and Wayne, New Jersey. We have no holy men in Philly, nor do we have stupid reporters who are really really stupid.
Believe it or not, but it's actually about 40 feet deep in parts.

Oh. Gotcha. Well after the rains last week there was enough crap floating down the river that we had everything from a refrigerator to a lifeguard stand wash up by the dock.

Any beer in the fridge?
nah. no door either. Just a lot of muddy water. Actually I'm surprised that those things even float.

Except it's made from the stuff that wasn't good enough to go into hot dogs. Hoof, snout, tail - it's all good!
Flashbacks to childhood nightmares (lifelong PA resident - originally in Central PA, now in S.E. PA) ..... no matter how much ketchup or syrup I drowned that stuff in it still tasted like ... like .... well, pretty much what it is.
My rule is I don't eat anything that has the word "crap" as part of it's name!

I always figured the consistency to be the biggest obstacle.

Yum!!
But what is scrapple perchance?
Scrapple is interesting. It's something that I've only seen here in eastern PA - perhaps a Pennsylvania Dutch thing or something, and it's something that most people won't eat once they know what it is. Basically, it's the scraps left over from a pig that are seasoned and formed into a brick. Then slices are fried up and eaten a breakfast side or on a sandwich.
I admit - reading what I just wrote makes it sound horrible and disgusting. My ex-girlfriend of six years never tried it because she knew what it was. (No, that's not why she's an ex.) I guess it's something that you just have grow up eating before you realize what it is.
I haven't heard scrapple in a while. I lived in eastern PA and have a friend from PA Dutch country. They eat it all the time. Slice it, fry it and eat it with eggs, ketchup and some people eat it with maple syrup. I can't even stomach to look/buy it at the store, less alone consume it! YICK!

It's a line from my favorite cheesy B-rate movie, Ski School. Sorry.
Gotcha.
Actually, I like BuffettBride's thinking. BB, If you go all the way, you may have started with the Fundies.

Nahh. Undies of any kind just get in the way.
Now I really like your thinking.
