    Guy is driving a tanker full of cow manure down a very narrow country road and a turkey flies in your window, what are you going to do first, stop the truck or try to grab the turkey, open the door to throw him back out, maybe its just because I know some what this guy has done in the past, he is a good guy just not very bright

    Back in the '90's there was a guy headed south on I-81 hit one and it ended up in the bunk with his wife, he said he had a hard time telling who was making more noise, said he stopped the truck, opened the bunk door and the thing jumped out ran into the woods, I know they are tuff things

    I hit a pheasant S of SLC, R windshield, An owl on I 55 In MS, R windshield, and a rock R windshield Albuquerque NM, that one injured my running partner on that trip. The police caught 3 teenagers and charged them with it and killing a Yellow
    Freight driver the same night. I am a bit like a retired boxer. Just a bit punchy.

    BTW/I did'nt wreck either but that does'nt mean much. Heard about a guy who hit a deer and put it in the back seat but the deer was'nt dead and came to, sorta tore up things. I'll bet that was good bar lore.


    I once knew an honest fisherman!
