2/19/2006: Deer rescue

Undertoad · 02-19-2006, 10:26 AM

This successful deer rescue is presented with apologies for missing Friday, when the Cellar's server was in the midst of a move.

If they're not careful, someone will be rescueing them from the deer. These things can be dangerous. This one, fortunately doesn't appear to have a lot of spunk left in him.

Why "rescue" something that you're just going to toss on the barbecue anyway?

chrisinhouston · 02-19-2006, 02:19 PM

What's wrong with this picture? 3 men in a boat all on one side, no one wearing a life jacket and the boat is listing to the side because of the imbalanced load. If they aren't careful them may all be in the drink with bambi and what's more, capsized aluminum boats don't have much floatation so I think the boat would go down in a wink.

The guy in the middle of the boat looks more like a hunter. Seems to me that the hunters deer got away and his mates are helping him retrieve it. Swim little deer, swim.

In a rescue situation like this, you find two kinds of people: those who would try to save a life, and those who would stand there and let it die.

Kobe deer.
A few beers, a massage, then who knows...?

Maybe you'll get lucky.

This image makes that little childhood ditty go around and around in my head; "Rub a dub dub, 3 men in a tub and who do you think they be?"

I'm trying to create a new ending with something about "fat boy, Billy Bob and Bubba" but the rhyming sort of needs work and I haven' yet figured out how to get the deer into it.

It's Fat Boy, Billy Bob and Bubba, tipping the tub, deer me.

Why in the world would a deer need rescue from the water? The deer along the Columbia River manage a mile-wide river with a substantial current. Deer can swim. Maybe they can't pull a metal tub with three people, but otherwise they should be fine.

Karen, that was my initial thought as well, but after looking closer at the picture it appears that the deer is surrounded by ice. It was probably walking along and fell through.

Saraax · 02-20-2006, 02:08 PM

That deer looks seriously pissed off.

Good eye.

I hadn't even noticed the ice.
