Fyodor nearly hits an emu with his late model sedan.

On a recent dark and foggy morning I left for work as usual. A large flightless bird ran out from between two nearby houses and scared the living daylights out of Your Humble Servant.

While this might be a common occurence Down Under, here in Flyover USA it is just plain weird. That sucker could have done some serious damage to my fender.

The gentleman farmer at the bottom of the hill who has a penchant for exotic fowl retrieved his wayward bird soon after.
