On the open road, you are only seconds away from death.  Scary thought, the

So true.  I hit a turkey last year.  Damn thing stepped out of the brush and
started to walk onto the road.  In slow motion, I see its legs flex and launch

And caved the entire right side of the windshield in.

I say we should ban all wild turkeys.
