Goose bumps

This morning the traffic guy reported that there was backup on a local highway due to some geese that had been hit. Dead geese are causing a serious traffic snarl? How much of them can really be left so as to be a traffic hazard if they were run over on a highway? Are people afraid to run over their smushed bodies?

(I realize that this is not a workplace observation but is an amusing thing overheard at work).

SAFRAN: At the risk of sounding like the insensitive jerk that I am, I thought the traffic guy's line on this was priceless. You didn't explain your headline.... (He referred to the deceased ducks in the road as "Goosebumps.")

Now THAT's gallows humor.
