Some days you’re the windshield, some days you’re the bug.

I hit something tonight also, not sure what it was, but it was big and well splattered and I thought “Bet he won’t have the guts to do that again.”

Humm I actually hadn’t noticed a real lack of bugs. Plenty of flies, gnats, mosquitos, etc. around here.

Obviously, this person has too much time on his hands and does not have a real job which would preclude him from pursuing such nonsense. A high level government scientist or grantee?
