Dog Fights Off Murderous Deer
1998-12-04 19:35:00
Imagine if you went outside one day to get the paper, and you were confronted by a menacing, hulking, 150-pound deer buck with murder in its eyes!

Sometimes these beasts will come out of the woods and terrorize whole towns--smash plate glass windows, run old ladies down, and even run around with chainsaws on their antlers.

Three Days and 25 Spocktails: A Cautionary Tale
Johnnie Royale picked me up from the dental surgery. I felt warm, safe, cradled in the anathesia's loving embrace. The pharmacy downstairs gave me a bottle of Vicodin and a few instructions: take it with food, don't mix with alcohol, don't operate heavy machinery. I put it in my pocket and we left.
