Good thing it wasn't a mattress or things might have been more interesting. Lane position to see around him could have helped you avoid the suicidal possum.

Don't feel bad.......if possums had thumbs and good credit, they wouldn't hesitate to take you out with a Toyota.
Then they would just blame it on faulty engineering. Those possums are kinda evil that way.

haha, thats funny as hell - I always wanted to print up about 50 "I found 50 lbs, if you've lost - please call XXX-4757" to post up around those advertisements for "I lost 50 lbs, call to find out how"
I had to avoid a few previously squashed 'coonigans' yesterday, was wondering what it'd be like to hit a fresh kill in a curve that had already been run over and opened up - seems squishy enough to put you right down?

I am glad you posted this because we have possums, armadillos, and raccoons running all over our roads. I have managed to avoid them so far but sometimes it resembles an obstacle course just going home. I avoid all the turtles as well but that's just because I like them.
But I often wondered how bad it might be to run over one of the suckers.
