I contend that the deer hit me.
That actually happens a lot in Upstate NY. You stop, and the deer runs into the side of your car.
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Deer are known for pulling insurance scams.

Our wings are not tired.
Our receptionist is a white guy in his 60s. We all treasure him, as do the customers. Best hire ever. He is the only reason we didn't go to an all virtual office, because he wouldn't work that way. So we rented our current space.
So I am considering a bit of a vacation to Jamaica. Flights out of Fort Lauderdale are surprisingly reasonable, like $196 RT. Friend that was our best man lives there most of the time now and has room at his house so it would be super reasonable. The only debate is whether to take the boys with us.

Yep. I think my sister has had 4 hit her over the years. Although usually it was just the inability to stop short on snow/ice.

I heard an adult and a student were injured. The student's injuries are not life-threatening.

Oh, remembered that the local paper posted a deer in the road picture a few days ago. [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Chicago Tribune says:
Gunfire erupted on Thursday at a California high school in inland Kern County in a shooting in which two people were injured, county officials said.
The shooting occurred in a science building at the high school in Taft, sheriff's officials said. Parents lined the block at nearby Roosevelt Elementary School, waiting to take their children home.

That sounds awesome! Do it! Don't bring the boys. Unless you think they'll trash the place while you're gone or something. :)
but seeing someone who was right where I was 30 years ago, and now has a better job, even though I don't want her job...the part of my brain that lies to me is kinda mean.
Oh, I hear ya. On the one hand, I've done much better, career-wise, than some people I know. But then I look at some of the folks I've worked with in the past and want to kick them, because they happened to have their career go a different (better) direction, mostly just by happenstance and being in the right place at the right time.
