I went to check on the progress of my house tonight and on the way there I noticed a female adult moose dead in the ditch I'm guessing it got hit by a semi the night before. So I kept going all is well I go to see the house.

On my way back about an hour later now pitch black as this section of highway is unlit. I'm driving and out of nowhere 2 baby mooses in the middle of the road. I slam on the brakes and they run off. I was far enough away that I wouldn't really call it a close call but it did get the heart pumping thats for damn sure.

I take it these 2 baby mooses were looking for their mom. Makes me sad to think that they will undoubtedly get hit sometime tonight. As a lot of drivers are not as cautious as I am. Living in brodozer country one of them is gonna bite the dust for sure.

Why does "rough" not rhyme with "though"? Because the English language is stupid.

just looked it up in the dictionary and I believe you may be correct. English is not my first language so mooses sounds correct. doesn't really matter pretty soon they will be moosages(moose + sausages) anyway.

as a hobbyist othographist and etymologist, "ough" is one of my favourites.

well it's wrong and I hate it. (except the English language is ever evolving and if you use something enough times it becomes accepted)
