Too weird. Kinda like me almost hitting a deer when I first got my license here in suburbia. It took me a minute to realize that it was actually a deer had just run across a 4 lane highway. I mean, seeing this kind of stuff in rural PA is one thing, but here in suburbia? Quite another. Too bad you didn't have a camera

That's pretty sweet, indeed. Makes you wonder what else we miss out on by living in the city, insulated from everything else 'wild'.

Thanks for sharing that experience...very cool.

They probably escaped from one of those Coyote Moon slot machines.

Mikey,
I wanted to say congratulations on your win at the poker table. I haven't had a chance to read your blog lately - life gets hectic.

Coyotes must be considered dangerous

By John Holyoke
Bangor Daily News Staff


"When a 19-year-old folk singer was attacked and killed by coyotes in Nova Scotia last week, the shock waves spread far beyond that Canadian province’s borders."

I know I'm a horrible person, but I chuckled. I thought all the folk singers were killed off in the early 70's

I saw a squirrel this morning.

Mikey, congrats on the poker success though as in all things, when it turns against you, it turns in an ugly way. Still you're way up right now and you know as long as you play well that it will even out. I had been on a good swing myself until the past couple of days. Watch out for the wild life around there and I hope you can come down to the Evil Empire next week as the wife and I will be in town

Great story. The other day I took a wrong turn and ended up off the beaten track. I came upon a old homestead and noticed 3-4 wild turkeys nibbling on the front lawn. The one nearest me must have weighed 60 lbs. I had my camera in the glove box but was dumbfounded and just kept driving. I brain cramp.

Belated congrats on Quad Four$$.

Hope you had a grand time at Lee's.
Any new exotic rums to report?

Of course, the most fascinating bit of this story is that you made a U-turn and the Henderson Police weren't there to ticket you.
