A moose bit my sister once.

[BenLurkin]

We'll se what my sister has to say about this.

She didn't like getting bitten.

She even had to drop the cheese before jumping into the shower.

Traditional warning signs.... People steal them," Woytek said"

OK Freepers....fess up !

[Rebelbase]

I object to such a waste of taxpayer money to benefit one man. :-)

[presidio9]

Is not Moose. Is flying squirrel who causes many headaches!

[Textide]

I'm still looking for those white guys in the white van.

[MineralMan]

I do NOT have legs like tree trunks...and I did NOT bite your sister.

shadowy legs the size of tree trunks

This guy needs to get out into the woods to see what a tree trunk looks like...

Massachusetts' small herd of about 1,000 moose with radio collars

If they put radio collars on the moose, how about putting on one of those 'invisible fence' type collars to give the moose a little 'juice' if it gets near the highway?

Yeah...that's the kind of idea you'd expect from a pentode. All those grids...feh! And who needs a darned vacuum tube AF/RF amplifier anymore, anyhow. [big grin]

Bull moose in rut rarely pay attention to anything short of a mortal wound, and those just slow them down a bit. Rutting moose are probably the most dangerous of US wildlife, short of a mother bear whose cubs you are harrassing (though the moose tend to act more randomly than the enraged bear would).

I hate reporters like this. You are a reporter, not a novelist. Just write about the newspiece and leave the metaphors alone.

And OJ's "real killers" and Capt. McDonald's (sp?) (Ft. Bragg Special Forces guy) band of drug crazed hippies.

Don't hold your breath.
