Brandy F. asks: “My husband brought home a deer decoy, gave it a name and left it in the living room while he went on a business trip. Now, ‘Stanley’ has that rut look. What should I do?”

Ask Red says: Lure it out of the house with a trail of corn kernels and salt, get in your car, flip on the headlights and then run it over. Of course, the other option is to stop nipping at the Sherry and come to grips with the fact that “Stanley” isn’t real and not the answer to your “Big Buck” fantasy.

 Night Shift says: The deer is meant to attract attention to it and away from the larger question,"Where the hell is my husband and what is he really doing?"
