now, the turkey last year was interesting. shattered the windshield (she hit dead center, even knocked the rear view mirror off kilter)....luckily i could still see to drive, as i was over an hour from home.
then, i go thru a security gate to get into a facility, guard asked my gosh, what happened? i said i hit a turkey.

she said 'frozen??' i will NEVER forget that one!! where in the hell are you going to hit a frozen turkey??!
How far do you commute?

I remember in highschool friends of mine got charged by a moose because it was mating season and he thought they were a threat to his lady.
