gerisullivan"I'll take 'Things You Don't Expect to See in the Road While Driving Down a Texas Highway' for $1,600, Alex"....
CNN International is reporting about a truck that overturned while en route to Galveston, Texas on Tuesday. The truck was carrying wildlife to a temporary home while their habitat at the Indianapolis Zoo is being remodeled.
Which is how it came to be that motorists hit and killed three penguins while driving in Texas. A fourth penguin and some exotic fish were also killed in the accident. The good news is that 21 other penguins stayed together in a ditch and were rescued, as was an octopus.

Other people start talking about the time they hit an armadillo, a deer, a bear, a moose, and they can pipe up about the time they were driving down the highway and hit a penguin. In Texas. "No shit, there I was...."
Wonder what I'll see while driving down the Mass Pike Wednesday....
