A Couple of Things We've Discussed Here

Moose in the Roadway Dept: 
A woman driving alone on the Richardson Highway Wednesday evening was killed when her vehicle crashed into a moose, Alaska State Troopers said.

The entire top of her vehicle, a blue 2006 Acura, was ripped off, the trooper report said.
Sad, but not uncommon in car/moose collisions.


Love, Exciting and New Old and Busted Dept:  The Associated Press reports...
JUNEAU, Alaska — A Celebrity Cruises spokeswoman says the ship that returned to port in Ketchikan last weekend after experiencing mechanical problems is scheduled to depart on Thursday.

Cynthia Martinez says the Millennium will head to a shipyard in the Bahamas for repairs. She says it will sail using its other propulsion motor.
Needless to say, there won't be any passengers aboard.

Yeah, Moose's always win... sad to hear...

True, sir. 1200 lbs on the hoof wins every time.

What about those little things they put on cars to scare deer would that work with a moose?

Rev. Paul said...

Corey, that's a good question. Judging by how few of those I see here, I'm guessing they don't work with moose.
