| Two bizarre incidents involving deer in the Pittsburgh area today: Deer breaks into bank's financial office (looking for bucks?) Buck attacks, gores couple It should be noted that the deer population in PA is skyrocketing. It is the state with the most car accidents involving deer. |

| #3 Does anyone recall the 911 tape made a decade ago of the man who hit a deer with his car? He stopped to phone the police from a phone booth, where he was attacked by a neighborhood dog (smelling like blood, deer, and being a stranger in the area). The tape goes on and on with a crowd of dispatchers laughing gleefully as this guy relates in realtime the dog's antics in biting his leg. It's soo funny I cried. |

| #2 My best deer story concerns a friend, a giant of a man who played the largest drums in an African drum band. He approached me one day and asked if I had any hunter friends, er...um...you know, rednecks who shoot deer? He had found it terribly hard to purchase large, undamaged deer hides for his drums, so was hoping to "put out a contract" for a deer kill, done with a head shot. He would pay a premium price, and was willing to surrender the meat, though he also liked venison. And though it seemed very unnatural to him, eventually he ended up buying a hunting rifle and other accoutrements to do it himself. The deciding factor was that he would also end up with a refrigerator full of venison. He said it was the oddest thing, once he had made some hunter friends, to go to a hunter's bar. Nobody quite knew how to take him until they saw the big-ass buck in the back of his pickup truck. They got along fine after that. |
