Hey Nat, I can't believe that just happened to you. This past weekend I was driving to Windsor with my friend, and he was telling me about various moose stories. Not to long ago, this girl that he went to school with was driving up north with her boyfriend when all of a sudden in the middle of the night she was face to face with a moose standing on the roadway. She did not have enough time to avoid it and ended up hitting the moose straight on. The antlers of the moose came right through the windshield and she ended up in a ditch on the side of the road. When the dust settled she found herself with a bunch of scratches and bruises, but was relatively fine. However, to her dismay, her boyfriend who was sitting in the passenger side was dicapitated by the antlers of the moose.

Thank God that you ended up with only and broken arm, it could have been a lot more serious. Its great that you still had the tenacity to attend the party and have a good time. I hope you get better soon. After what happened to you and Hooman this weekend, I will definitively be more careful driving up north. I love the curvy roads up north, and too often mistake them for a race track. Now I will for sure think twice before doubling the speed limit while carving corners up north.

one time in an Australian race, I saw somebody hit a sheep.

the thing blew up.
blood spatter that got washed off by the wipers and it was like the sheep was never there.

An aside: Do they have Moose insurance in the great white north?

Yes Martin, be very careful driving in the country!!!! i've always done long road trips (solo) at nite driving to & from DC- that may change now..... Even tho those roads are bigger highways than Hwy 60 in Algonquin, there are stretches of road I call the 'hwy of death' cuz every few feet u see huge blood stains on the road from cars hitting deer. < another warning sign to look out for the likelyhood of animal infested routes.
in talking to the police up there, it seems that moose & deer run-ins happen on a daily basis(if not multiple times a day). Whose smart idea was it to put a road there anyways????
