It's about time. Are they going to pardon those of us with a criminal record based on roadkill?

I agree 100% that wild game is much healthier than store bought meat. And add, wild game tastes much better.

Example.
Last week we decided to make a large meatloaf for company. But we were down to 1# of store bought hamburger, and we needed 2#. So we thawed out a # of this season's venison hamburger.

This was a legally harvested deer that hung in my shop for 3 weeks to age. Then I butchered it and ground some of it into hamburger.

When both meat were thawed, we could tell the differnce from the smell. The store bought was not bad, but, smelled horrible compared to the venison. I doubt we will ever buy store bought beef again.

Might have been dairy cow. I was reading about it when Lanny or someone brought up prime beef recently.

Yuck. I'll take a choice anything over a prime Holstein

Don't knock it 'till you try it.

Eh.....I don't think it applies to cannibalism cases.

Meat is meat. Let's not be so picky. One man's hit-and-run is another man's dinner.

My advice: stick to school zones. Veal is clearly superior. When the zombie apocalypse comes, I plan to make my body armor out of babies. Just use quick release knots, so you can pluck them off and chuck 'em like grenades. Run away while the horde is distracted. In a pinch, they double as trail rations.

Damn, that is some demented stuff right there.

Why thank you!

Ahh Poe and Lovecraft! I also spent much of my childood reading them as well as Bradbury, King, Barker, Stoker, Shelly, Jackson, Bierce, Wells and the list goes on.

It was illegal?

Nice to see the politicians in Oregon finally trying to do something to raise the standard of living in their state.

But, not sure they thought this through.

Don't they understand how difficult it is, plus how dangerous it is, to make roadkill on a bicycle?

When I was a young boy, I tried to make myself into roadkill while riding my bicycle. One time while riding my bike on 'A' avenue in Lake Oswego on a sidewalk, I was flying along and came to an alley. I rode across the alley as a car came to a stop there expecting to wait for traffic so he could enter 'A' avenue. I hit his right front quarter panel and went flying across the hood of his car. The driver got out and while obviously very shaken asks how I was. I told him I was fine and this sort of thing happened to me all the time, which was very true. I was, shall we say, more than a tad wild. I always had torn blue jeans from riding my bike and skinned knees from the same activity. Honestly, I sometimes wonder how I survived.

That was you?
You still owe me a fender.

His car was a little tougher than a 10 year old boy riding a one speed with foot pedals doubling as the brakes when pedaled backwards. I think the bike, which I got used when I was 8, must have set my folks back about $3. It also had smaller wheels and no accessories. God, I loved that bike.

By the way, it's not too late for me to tell the cops.
