This from the December 6 "Salon" on-line magazine (I'm not making this up!):
Five Deer Leap to Deaths From W.Va. Garage
- - - - - - - - - - - -
December 06,2005 | RANSON, W.Va. -- Either they misjudged the distance or they couldn't take the traffic. For reasons that mystify authorities, five deer that made their way onto the top of a five-story parking garage suddenly leaped to their deaths Sunday.
Police Cpl. Steve Cox found the does' bodies on a service road to the Charles Town Races & Slots, next to a security van they'd narrowly missed.
"They took the plunge," he said. "It was just absolutely weird."
A woman called police when she saw the deer falling, and Cox said he found scratches and animal hair on the fifth floor, indicating that's where they had been.
It is unclear how the deer got into the garage, but Cox said they may have become frightened after getting trapped. Cars moving through the garage may have spooked them, he said.
Or they could have been fooled by trees that can be seen from the top of the garage, mistakenly thinking they were close to home.
The carcasses were given to passers-by for butchering.

See a shrink, Stephen. If it's bad enough, the shrink will encase you in a little white coat with buttons in the back. This is what is called shrink-wrapped.

Yes Adam, but we all know you are under the influence of Dawn, so you would say that

Its good to be able to talk here without the interruptions of Lynne. don’t think she ventures far outside the jfk forum.
I have no idea how she is 'controlling' me

but apparently I am somehow 'strongly influenced by her'

despite the fact we have hardly spoken...maybe it
is some kind of long distance hypnosis...

Stephen and the gang:
Have you noticed her absence? To what do we attribute this? (John's common sense kicking in

or she found other places to haunt.) Either way.....tis a nice Christmas present. Another was that the local 3rd court of appeals here in AUstin has said "No and no" re Tom Delay. No special Christmas favors to that Republican (alleged) criminal.
