A quick word on deer whistles
A friend of mine some years back had hit one with his wife's Rabbit
Convertible (Insurance Co. actually fixed it??), and shortly after he hit
another with his Jeep (Insurance Co. dropped him after that), he then put
those type devices on and they seemed to work for him for the next few years
that I know of, Your lucky as it could have been alot worse, located here:
http://home.earthlink.net/~76rocco/Deer/index.htm (Caution for those who
don't want to see Bambi dead!) are some pictures that were e-mailed to me as
a joke, I don't know anything about them or where they came from, only that
they left me saying Holy Shit! I'm just glad he wasn't diving a Rocco...
