this is completely insane, glad everyone is ok!
Good thing the driver knew enough to stay composed and not drive off the track or swerve.
Sucks the car got hammered, but the important thing is you're okay.
It's gotta be the last thing on your mind racing around the track, damn never crossed my mind on the track, jeez.
Don't forget all of the lyme disease this little fkers are spreading too.
I don't hunt, but damn I'm thinking about offering free camo and ammo to local hunters, seriously.
BTW, I have to ask, did they let you keep the deer?
Damn it would have made good hamburgers, it's already pulverized and ground, haha.
Sorry, I couldn't resist

A radiologist I know was attacked and knocked to the ground by a Cougar while running on (and I am not making this up!) Tiger Mountain. That's about 10 miles from home, as the eagle flies, of which there are lots more too. Wish he had sent me the photo of the TEN scars on his back, exactly as if you took both hands, fingers spread, and raked his back shoulders to waist.

Oldie, but appropriate:
Dear Diary...
AUG 12
Moved to our new home in Pennsylvania. It is so beautiful here. The mountains are so majestic. Can hardly wait to see them with snow covering them. I love it here.
OCT 14
Pennsylvania is the most beautiful place on Earth. The leaves are turned all colors and shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through the beautiful mountains and saw some deer. They are so graceful, certainly they are the most wonderful animal on earth. This must be Paradise. I love it here.
NOV 11
Deer season will start soon. I can't imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous creature. Hope it will snow soon. I love it here.
DEC 2
It snowed last night. Woke up to find everything blanketed with white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. We had a snowball fight (I won), and when the snow-plow came by, we had to shovel the driveway again. What a beautiful place. I love Pennsylvania.
DEC 12
More snow last night. I love it. The snow-plow did his trick again to the driveway. I love it here.
DEC 19
More snow last night. Couldn't get out of the driveway to get to work. I am exhausted from shoveling. ****ing snow-plow.
DEC 22
More of that white **** fell last night. I've got blisters on my hands from shoveling. I thing the snow-plow hides around the curve and waits until I'm done shoveling the driveway. *******!
DEC 25
Merry ****ing Christmas! More friggen snow. If I ever get my hands on that son-of-a-bitch who drives that snow-plow, I swear I'll kill the bastard. Don't know why they don't use more salt on the roads to melt the ****ing ice.
DEC 27
More white **** last night. Been inside for three days except for shoveling out the driveway after that snow-plow goes through every time. Can't go anywhere, car's stuck in a mountain of white ****. The weatherman says to expect another 10" of the **** again tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10" is?
DEC 28
The ****ing weatherman was wrong. We got 34" of that white **** this time. At this rate it won't melt before next summer. The snow-plow got stuck up the road and that bastard came to the door and asked to borrow my shovel. After I told him I had broken six shovels already shoveling all the **** he pushed into my driveway, I broke my last one over his ****ing head.
JAN 4
Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back a damned deer ran in front of the car and I hit it. Did about $3,000 damage to the car. Those ****ing beasts should be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all last November.
MAY 3
Took the car to the garage in town. Would you believe the thing is rusting out from that ****ing salt they put all over the road?
MAY 10
Moved to Georgia. I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever live in that God-forsaken state of Pennsylvania.

Chuck: We get quite a few guys attacked by Cougars at Clint's Mission Ranch here in Carmel every weekend! Most survive. It goes with the territory.

I was coming down a mountain/hilly road with lots of turns and lots of trees at night at around 30 mph (in my Yukon XL Denali) and I spotted movement in my peripheral vision on my left. I slowed the car a little bit and braced to come to a full stop if needed. My wife asked "what are you doing?"
The deer came up from my left, and in an instant leaped in front of my truck and bounded across the road. My wife commented that she didn't even see it until it was in front of us. I was thankful that I had!
