RN, Mame, the page you're looking for is on the main page of General Discussions, about halfway down. I can't get 'in' to give you the link (it's in blue).

RN I just watched the Mayflower mover's ad again with the giant marionette doll. That doll is as scary as the Burger King man.

RN...awwww, at least your trespasser is cute, Ladytex. I had the biggest and ugliest possum on my deck last night. The dogs went crazy.

RN: Dogdoc, when I saw that commercial I said it was one of the most disturbing things I'd ever seen. LT: that's awesome. I miss living in the country. I used to see deer on my way to and from work and coyotes would sing us to sleep.

RN, I miss living in the country and seeing deer, red fox, and even cows daily. Now I live in town... but, Naja, I have a possum too, living under my shed.

RN I'm mentally trying to count the times my poor big brother's cars/trucks have been plowed into by deer (and the number is at least a dozen). He--or whatever car he's driving--is a deer MAGNET. My husband has had one deer collision and one near-hit within the last two years. We live in a rural area and the deer are thick here. It's a real hazard on the road. It's nothing to see two or three dead deer along the state routes and interstates in our county. You never see them on the township roads, though, because you can't drive fast enough on them to actually hit a deer. The deer see you and jump out of the way in time if you're driving more slowly. Oh, and it's true that they're dimwitted and just stand there looking into your headlights at night. They often jump at the last minute--either directly away from the road or right into your car. It's a nuisance.

I don't think deer are dimwitted, they are blinded and confused by the headlights.

RN, I'm sure that's true. Also, in nature, one of the best defenses when threatened is to stay perfectly still and try to remain unnoticed. People often freeze when threatened. Unfortunately, that doesn't work well if the threat is a fast moving vehicle. Aside from the poor deer, it's dangerous for the people driving and it sure can do a lot of damage to a car. It must be very frustrating.

RN, we took a walk around the neighborhood at 7 a.m. the other morning, which is our usual time to walk the neighborhood. But for some reason that morning we were up before the deer. We saw all kinds of sitting-down deer "statues" on the neighbors' lawns.

RN, I am wondering if road kill is legal to take in these states?

RN, I know it's legal in Tennessee. Many a redneck joke has been made over helping yourself to roadkill. Too bad my feeble brain can't remember any.

RN it is legal in Pennsylvania to take road kill deer but unless the kill is fresh you don't want the meat.

RN, DH went out to buy dog food and pick up his prescription. Just 2 things. He came home with his prescription, a bigger jumbo baby pool for our lab dog, a squeaky monkey toy, and a bag of jumbo rawhide bones. RN DH just left to go back to the store to buy the dog food.

RN I live right outside of Boston and yesterday the way the wind came down from Canada it brought all the smoke from the fires up there. I thought the city was on fire but could not understand why I was not hearing any firetrucks. once the wind shifted the smell of smoke went away

RN, that happened here one time, Dfen. I think the fires were near Montreal that year. It is strange when you realize that the fire you smell is so far away.
