I almost nailed a cow in the road today, on the way home. She wouldn't move for an hour, even when I threw stuff at her.

Whats the oddest thing you've come across in the road?

I've seen a cow... a pair of nudests, a threesome of squirrels, and a very odd looking couch.

God.

God.
You shouldn't take that stuff and drive man.

I almost hit a mama possum and all her babies. They were crossing the road and I slammed on the brakes just in time. I got out and cried and picked the babies up and put them on the side of the road.


Of course I was 16 and drunk. ooops.

He was naked, twelve feet tall, and had a stream of loud smelling colour flowing out of his ass.

You realize that when the mother smelled you on her kids, she would reject her babies?

Jesus, he was hitch hiking, he needed a bath. He told me the secret to life, but I never wrote it down.

I live in the suburban midwest and I once saw two mexicans sleeping in a tree.

The disembodied head of a moose. Everything was still attached...except the body.

No joke.

Did you play pinata?

I would've.

The mother didnt reject them. She came right over to them and huddled up. We stayed there for quite some time and she was going on about being a mother as usual.

Not all animals do that you know. Especially when they are bigger babies...not say 3 days old.

Well if you've ever driven in India , Cows are aloud to walk to main roads (religous reverence). It is less prevelant now than it was earlier but even now if a cow walks onto a main road, basically traffic will slow there to accomodate it.

In Africa, I was driving to another City once and the road (well it wasn't a highway) got jammed up with a herd of goats.

Course in the states haven't seen anything that shocked me but there was this one time a girl flashed me from a bus and I remember thinking I love being here.

Damn. I got someone good who did something similar.

2 Mexicans in a tree? Good hunting.

I'm sorry, the ballots are in. They don't need to be counted.

You win.

The floating antlers would've spooked me.

Some drunk guy walked out when we were stopped at a light and peed on the car.

I know, I know... I lose. You people have way better stories than I.

Out in the middle of nowhere once, my dad hit an emu, which decided that running towards the car was a good idea.

We were stuck out in the 40 degree heat for about 2 hours until a truck driver gave us a ride. That wasn't fun.

Out on a back road in the middle of no where in upstate New York I once came upon an old wooden trunk that was just sitting in the middle of the road. I pulled it off to the side and opened it. It was full of paper airplanes.

I never found out what that was about, as the next day when I drove past the same spot, it was gone.

In China I saw a guy on a bicycle riding the wrong way down the middle lane of a 3 lane motorway. He was hauling a trailer stacked full of cardboard and paper.
What was weird was that no-one beeped or shouted. All the vehicles going the right way just swerved to avoid him and carried on. I guessed it must be a pretty common sight.
Travelling round China in a taxi cab becomes a Zen thing. One soon realises that there's nothing you can do about the traffic chaos, so realx and become one with the world. Every tree, person, building, pile of rubbish you see could well be your last sight so take it easy and enjoy those sights.



One year after a particularly bad drought followed by heavy rain there was a frog explosion round where my parents live. Thousands upon thousands of frogs hopped on the road and there was nothing one could do but drive right over them. The little 'pops' were pretty gross. Not to mention the smell over the next few days.
