A pickup stopped on the other side of the divided highway and two guys jumped out and started running toward my location. I thought how nice it was that someone stopped to check one me. They stopped at the side of the ditch and grabbed what turned out to be the deer by the horns and started dragging it toward their vehicle. As they begin to load the deer, a Deputy arrived with a Highway trooper right behind. The Highway trooper took the two gentlemen into custody and the Deputy called for another wrecker. A game warden arrived to take custody of the deer.

Apparently, the State considers a deer to be their property. I called the State later to see if they would pay my deductible for the damage caused by their property. I am still waiting for a check.
These guys seem like real gents. Even if we assume that they thought it was OK to take the deer, they still shouldn't take it since it would have been your "kill".

Your vehicle is not on the approved list for taking deer in Texas. Did you have your hunting license on you?

Farmer Brown decided his injuries from the accident were serious enough to take the trucking company (responsible for the accident) to court. In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning Farmer Brown.

"Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?" asked the lawyer.Farmer Brown responded, "Well I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into the...""I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted, "just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'!"

Farmer Brown said, "Well I had just gotten Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road..."The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question."

By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Brown's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule Bessie."

Brown thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side."He continued, "I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans.""Shortly after the accident a highway patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the patrolman came across the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me."

Finally, farmer Brown came to the end of the story. "The patrolman looked at me and said, 'Your mule was in such bad shape I had to shoot her. How are YOU feeling'?"
