Bad start to 2011? Yup, Just about burnt down my house Sunday morning when my hot water tank decided to catch on fire. Saved it though.

Guy was driving ot work in the morning. Came around a corner, hit a moose, killed it, totaled the Truck. Wife met him at the hospital, and when he was driving them both home, he came around another corner, hit another moose, killed it, totalled the van.

Total score: $45k in damages, 1200 lbs ( or some other absurdly large amount, its been 15+ years since I saw that) of meat he got to keep.
