Egad!!
I came here to see if anyone had heard from Liz, and find this thread. Again, Egad!

I really should look into this religion thing, it souncd nice and safe and boring. My current lifestyle's focal points of alcohol, drugs and meaningless sex are beginning to have an adverse affect. I don't even remember how I got home last night, for Christ's sake. . .

Just remember to lubricate your Belief Engine before you go looking into religions. They mostly use Snake oil, which isn't good for your Paradigm Shift.

No.

It was 11:30 last night, I was coming from a delivery in Balt. County (sort of the country-ish part), came down a hill on a curve, and hit it (I'm assuming) with my right front bumper.

I don't even really remember what happened, except it jumped in front of me, I almost swerved into another car, and then I was in the church parking lot. I think I broke it's front leg (or both of them). It was trying to limp out of the parking lot and into the woods, and it wasn't having much success. The police showed up, and the officer told me that if Animal Control wasn't in the area, he'd wind up shooting the deer (but I left before that happened).

Amazingly, there was no damage to my Jeep! The bumper is AMAZING -- but, probably that I hit him at an angle and not direct on -- led to that.

God damn deer.

It was at least ten minutes from when I hit it to when the police showed up, and I know the cop was going to wait until both of us left before "finishing" it (another driver pulled over right after I hit the deer, and waited for the police with me).

JeffK, the deer hunter.....

Glad our Jeep came through, some of the deer strikes from where I am from cause major damage.

If I'd been a foot further up the road, it would've done more damage 'cuz he would've impacted at the front right wheel. That would suck -- as it was, the impact almost caused me to lose control (and since there was another car coming the opposite way, that woulda' blown chunks). GET A JEEP! Great for ramming your way through deer ...

Damn! You almost damaged your bumper! Holy fuck! Good thing that deer wasn't bigger, or you might have had a scratch! But you got him good! Serves him right for jumping in front of your - the man's - jeep.

God damn deer, thinking they have the right to be able to run around in the woods. What the fuck was he thinking. I hope that policeman shot him up good, and smacked him around a bit, toteach him a lesson. A DEAD LESSON!!!!!!1

Well, the deer population in Maryland is huge. The state has organized "Hunt-A-Thons" to go whack 'em to bring it under control, but there's a huge problem with people hitting deer, we got so many of them.

UM, I think you misunderstand. I'm shocked that I hit a deer and ONLY damaged my bumper. Most people who hit deer have to take their vehicles into the bodyshop.

JeffK, I think you misunderstand. I'm shocked that you hit a deer and ONLY worried about your bumper. Most people who hit deer have are at least a little shaken up at killing some large creature.

You = Major Liberal!

I was shaken up by hitting the deer. Did I ever say I wasn't? If I'd been just a little bit father up the road, he would've slammed into the side of the engine, and might've knocked me into oncoming traffic. If I'd been a foot back, I would've hit him dead on. But ...

a) it wasn't my fault, I was going the speed limit, on a curve down a hill, and there was nothing I could've done differently (on my side) that would've prevented me from hitting the deer.

b) it was last night. I got over it.

No, actually I almost hit one last week here, with my old Cougar.
