Thank you for contacting the Abyss. Your scream is very important to us!

I am not particularly comfortable with hunting.  I prefer to leave deer in the forest and not wrecking my Jeep.  Once I was inline skating in Valley Forge National Park on the Schuylkill River Trail and there was a large buck standing right there on the trail.  He seemed as amused by me as I was of him.  So I started skating.  He decided that he'd come along for the ride for a while and trotted along side me until I came to a clearing. 

Pennsylvania is like that.  It was after rutting season so I didn't give it a second thought but ... well yes, it was foolhardy.




 Hunting trip

Three firefighters, – a rookie, a captain and a chief – went on a hunting trip. After their first night, the weather was miserable and they hadn't seen any deer all day.

Finally they came across an old shack and went inside to play poker.

After losing a couple of hands the rookie threw down his cards and said “I’m going out to get me a deer."

Fifteen minutes later the rookie came back with a four point buck. The captain asked, "How did you manage that?"

The rookie replied, "I walked out fifty feet, followed some tracks and shot this buck."

The captain then said, "I've had enough of this. I’m going to get my deer."

He came back a half hour later with a 6 point buck. The chief asked, "How did you manage that?"

The captain replied, "I walked out a hundred feet or so, followed some tracks and shot this buck."

The chief. not wanting to be outdone, said, "I'm out of here, I'm going to bag the biggest buck of the day."

He came back an hour later, all mangled and bloody.

The rookie asked, "What happened to you?"

The chief replied, "I walked out five hundred feet, followed some tracks and got hit by a TRAIN!”
