I remember visting him when he was very sick and dying. The TV was on, and he didn’t say a word until, for whatever reason, a picture came on of a very nice deer.

He looked at the TV and said “Bang.”

Was it an insurance commercial?

Lucky you, you must have a higher class, more intelligent brood of deer in your neighborhood. Chipmunks were once a pest but their gone (combination of hawks, foxes, coyotes and whatever else samples them). I yelled at the deer, even threw water bottles at ‘em, to no avail. Although when I turned the hose on them they would take off.....for a little while. As for spraying the flora with deer repellent, sometimes it worked but to have to reapply it after a heavy rain....forget it (the garden was rather large). I moved and haven’t had them around.....yet.

lol. It might have been. Either that or a Smokey Bear “protect wildlife” commercial. I remember how it seemed amusingly incongruous.

I hate deer, especially those on MY road.

Plus I'm terribly allergic to their dander. I give the owners of the local deer check-in stations coupons for one free pint of ice cream for every deer they take off MY road.

It's a whole lot cheaper than fixing the car. Last year about 70 pints.

Heck, where I live, I used to have to get out and kick them with a steel toe boot to get them off the road when the acorns were falling. Pikers.

Dough, the stuff that buys me beer...Ray, the guy that sells me beer. Me, the guy that drinks the beer, fa, a long way to get beer. So, I think I’ll have a beer. La! La, la, la, la, la beer! Tea, no thanks, I’ll have a beer. That will bring us back to d’oh!
