Herbie 1, Raccoon 0
Behold, the face of a killer. On the trip back from visiting my brother in North Carolina, I hit a raccoon with my car. I like animals (especially for dinner) but I prefer not to kill any of them if I don’t have to. Especially if it means hitting them with my car because, while I like animals, I love my car.
Now, in my defense, there was another car in the left lane so I couldn’t have moved over without hitting it. And the fucking raccoon was sitting on its ass eating in the middle of the right lane. What was I to do?
Two crunches and two thump/thwacks later I was still safely on my way home but I don’t think the raccoon made it. So, in his (her?) honor, I’ve posted a photo of the little furball’s final expression right before my killer car took him out.
It’s just too bad I couldn’t have run over a bird instead. That would have been justice.

He was up to somethin’, Joey. He was wearing a mask, after all…
As for the page thing, I backed up the HTML coding before I made any changes. I just replaced it with the old code.

i cant believe my own brother a murderer. It blows my mind how you would crush a defenseless racoon. Well at least you killed the dang thing unlike all those summers at scout camp when we tried to hard but couldnt quite do it. Though we did injured several we could not add one to the score book. Just be happy it wasnt a deer or a redneck standing in the road.

Be careful in the Cackilackies saying you run over a coon.
I’m just saying.
