What the Buck?!

Headline: Man shoots doe with well-developed rack

When Carmen Erickson dropped a deer with a single shot in a cattail slough south of here, he thought he'd downed a nice buck. Unlike his shot, he was a little off. The deer was a doe.

Well, certainly I've heard of Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen, but never in my life have I heard the story of Tranny, the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

I wonder if Pixar would be interested in telling the heart-warming tail of the poor dear who didn't have enough bucks to pay for a full sex change operation?

Although, I'm not sure how much doe it would pull in at the theaters, considering those kind of reindeer games might be too far out for the mainstream.

Besides, I'm sure Santa would've made her hoof it to the Island of Misfit Toys more quickly than you can say Abominable.

And that Charlie in the Box thought he had it bad. Heh.

The coolest toy on the Island of misfit toys was definitely the wtargun that shot jelly. I mean who wouldn't want of those?

Last fall there was a man and his son hunting on the property next to my father's. They had permission from the neighbor to be there. However the hunter thought he saw a deer and fired and it fell over. There were some problems though:
A)He shot at an animal on my father's property.
B)It was not a deer, but one of my father's cows.
C)The cow died.

The man did go to my father and paid my dad what the cow was worth. I think it was several hundred dollars because it was a young who likely would have produced several calves over the next few years. It was very sad.

yes, I forgot about the squirtgun! But I love to say, "nobody wants a charlie in the box!" and drive everyone crazy. ;)

That's horrible about your Dad's cow, how in the hell could he have thought it was a deer?! At least he paid him though.

She was killed for her well-developed rack. Who's next, Pamela Anderson?

Ray, I wish I knew what the hell you were talking about! but I laughed anyway.

Phoenix, I'm glad somebody picked up on that! I'm sure the writer of the article just couldn't wait to use those words in a sentence and get away with it. :)

SJ, are you inquiring about the deer or the hunter? assuming you're speaking of the hunter, I think you mean Vice President, in which case, the deer would've gotten away but the rest of the hunters would currently be in ICU. :)

I don't get it. What's unusual about the female of the species having a nice rack?

the unusual thing is, X, is that her rack was on her head. I'm sure all the woodland animals made jokes about it.

Ralph Bakshi is a pretty famous animator who did the LOTR in cartoon form back in the seventies. Prior to that, he did an R-rated animated movie called Fritz the Cat that is full of sex, drugs, race issues and the sort...it's kind of brilliant, actually, though real hard to stomach at time.

ITJ - so true...how the hell have you been?

Ray - I've heard of Fritz, although I haven't seen it, but didn't know he was the guy...learn something new everyday. :)

Well-developed racks--the horns, I take it or is my mind a cesspool of filth and mire. Let's stop killing the deers with undeveloped racks so that they can grow to be killed later.


Where I'm from, deer get killed all the time. They are like mice.

Enemy - just had a visual of big-horned mice...soon to be on the endangered species list. :)
