A well-known Vermonter who had never left the state was given a fancy banquet over in New Hampshire. There were speeches and drinks and then the first course was bouillon. The old man dutifully picked up the cup and drained it. Then the celery hearts were passed and he munched on a couple of them. Finally, the main course was served: a large boiled lobster for each diner. The Vermonter stared at this strange creature with the claws and antennae. He shook his head and stood up.
"Boys," he said, "I've gone along with most of your jokes. I've drunk your dishwater and I've eaten your bouquet. But I'm damned if I'll dig into this big ugly bug. Take her away!"
Representative Carr drove by a car last week and saw what he thought was someone fighting on top of it. Being a former State Trooper he turned around and went back to see what was going on. It turns out there had been a deer/car accident and the deer had been given to a young fella who didn't have any rope to tie the deer to his car. So he put all 4 windows down, dragged the deer up onto the top of the car and then wrapped Duct Taper over the deer; passed it through the car; through the front and back windows; about 10 times. I guess the deer was safe and secure for the 45 mph ride to his home.
