  1. I never thought I would ever see a turtle fly. But yesterday while
    riding into work, a turtle was crossing the road when it was struck by
    the tire of a car, it then fly across the road and hit the side of my
    front wheel. Luckily it did not hit hard enough to cause me to loose
    control of the bike. But it was a sight to see.

    The poor thing musta been trying to create the scene from 'Over the
    Hedge' (in your theatres now). ;-)

    Well on the way home I didn't see it, or the remains of it. So either it
    managed to survive at least long enough to make it off the road. Or
    someone removed it or it's remains.
