What does it mean?

I started off my day with an email from my friend Warren asking
What does it mean when you're driving to work across the I-195 bridge and a deer carcass flies (and bounces) across four lanes of traffic in front of you?

Here are some of the creative reasons that have been given -

Some redneck killed a deer out of season and didn't tie it down well enough.


That's Santa's newest reindeer - Bouncer!


Daniel Boone was visiting Richmond maybe, and he needed some knew shoes.

Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
With an eye like an eagle and as tall as a mountain was he.
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
He was brave, he was fearless and as tough as a mighty oak tree.

From the coonskin cap on the top of ol Dan to the heel of his rawhide shoe
The rippin'est roarin'est fightin'est man the frontier ever knew.

Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
And he fought for America to make all Americans free.
What a Boone. What a wonder. What a dream comer truer was he.


My favorite -

Bouncer the blood-soaked reindeer
Had a very smooshed in nose
And if you ever saw it
You would really think it's gross

All of the Powhite drivers
Used to scream and curse his name
They bounced him off the concrete
Then called in their insurance claims


Let's face it, I know some twisted people.

Odd thoughts

As I was slathering my toast with butter this morning, my mind started calculating the amount of fat that I was smearing over one piece of toast. Odd thoughts that early in the morning, but they were there all the same. I started wondering what everybody else prefers, so here is a poll. And comment if you answer Depends or Other.


[Poll #701030]

Not feeling it.

People Envy Your Compassion

You have a kind heart and an unusual empathy for all living creatures. You tend to absorb others' happiness and pain. People envy your compassion, and more importantly, the connections it helps you build. And compassionate as you are, you feel for them.
