Default "S" is for ... slaughter?

Over the past week, I have managed to kill the following with my car:

2 Sparrows
1 Rabbit
1 Snake

A sparrow, rabbit and snake occurred within about 2 miles of one another just this evening on the drive home. I'm a little worried that PETA is going to be following me soon. I hope this streak of bad luck (for both me and the damn animals) ends soon. <sigh>

.. everything thus far has had a first hand experience with the bottom of the car ... excluding the tires.

I had thought the damn second sparrow was stuck in one of the air intakes in the front fascia. That would have been a mess.

A bunny hit my car one time... my car was stationary...

Funniest damn thing... My friend and I go outside for a smoke, and there is a bunny on his driveway, so he crouches down real low, raises his arms above his head, and rushes the bunny screaming "BUNNY BUNNY BUNNY BUNNY!" at it... it takes off, and bolts under my car for shelter... it obviously had no clue how low my car was, because I heard a "Thunk" from when it hit the belly pan...

we were laughing for about 10 min...

How about "SPLATT!"? I drove to Hilton Head and left in the wee hours of the am to get out of the city and avoid the early morning traffic. Traffic was light, but there were enough cars that I risked drivng at Porschespeed with my trusty fuzzbuster. Big dinosaur bug splatts on the windscreen, the front, with streaks on the HOOD!

Yeah. My 987 SPLATT.
