so i had a bad day. i was on my way to work and i was on the expressway doing the 70mph limit in the far right of 2 lanes heading southbound. when i saw a deer and the car in front of me swirve. i looked out my driver's side window (nobody there), said something like "oh $hit" or possibly "oh deer", swirved to the left (couldn't go to the right due to all kinds of signs, gaurdrails, etc) , felt an impact, went into the median, spun 180, and another impact. i got out of my car unaffected, ran to the silverado exteneded cab that was parked along the passenger side of my car, asked the driver if he was ok, he was fine at that moment, but later his knee started bothering him. nonetheless i called 911. i looked to see if anyone else was involved and there were 2 cars parked on the right hand side of the road about 500' up. one of those drivers came to us and asked if everyone was fine. i asked her what happened 500' up and she said the guy (16 yr kid going to private school) hit the deer but he's fine and his car has very little damage. me and the driver of the truck were looking around at the damage. my rear 1/4 panels and driver's side door definately need work possible front passenger side bumper might need a bit of work. his truck well there was a huge tear going through his driverside doors, with wood sticking out of them-... yes wood, when we went into the median he almost went into oncoming traffic but there was a gaurd rail so he hit the gaurdrail. he hit the side that had all of the railroad ties (like an 8x8) that support the gaurd rail. he took out 10 of those posts could've been more but the gaurdrail ended. so i'm sure my insurance company is buying him a new truck. nobody got tickets the deer is dead (driver of the truck hunts deer and said that she was pregnant too). i'll see if i can post pics but they're on my mom's phone.

i guess if she (my car, the great white) gets totaled, i'll try to part it out. possible discount if you hunt deer! but untill i hear on wether it's totaled or not-... i don't even wanna think about parting it out! so have some respect and don't call dibs!

Damn deer, their EVERYWHERE up here, whenever im with somebody who isnt from MN, they freak out at the site of a deer, then I tell them that deer are nothin but oversized rodents that get in your way and are only worth eating.

Sorry to here about that. good thing everybody is alright...
