Yup I just jumped right back up there and shoved it back in what I thought was her dead hole.

I know. I was playing along. With a note that that joke, however funny it might be, was just not right.
Or at least that was what I was trying to convey.

I haven't, but my dad and uncle were both shot. My dad was shot by one of his friends who was playing with a loaded .22 revolver. Dad tried to tell the guy that the gun was loaded but he didn't listen - shot him just below his left collar bone. This happened when my mom was pregnant with me. By all accounts, she was not amused.
My uncle got shot when he got in a bar fight when he was in the Navy. The guy shot him in the lower abdomen with a small pistol. After getting shot, my uncle nearly beat the guy to death and got thrown in jail for assault. It was only after he continued to bleed profusely in his cell that they realized what had happened. I'm assuming alcohol was involved in both instances. But when a guy who can show you a bullet wound tells you to be careful with guns, you do listen a bit more intently. |

I was lucky that day.
When Trap Shooting with some friends. My friend lays down his shotgun on the range table, and it went off. I had my Favorite Willie Nelson shirt on and it was to big, cause I am a small guy. I was sorta bent over when the gun went off. It was directed towards my torso, but all I ended up was getting a very bad flesh wound. However the Willie Nelson shirt was shreded. My Mom woulda killed my friend if he killed me. That was the summer I lost my only brother in a car accident. I never told her and I still got that shreded shirt |

Used to work with a guy that shot himself in the calf with a 9mm and he said that hurt like a son-of-a-bitch, he couldn’t even hobble around on it. Some friends got him to the hospital <7 minutes from the gun shot and he almost bled out in that time.
New a different guy that got shot in the calf with a .22, someone playing around with a rifle that shouldn’t have been holding one, and he said he wasn’t even going to go to the hospital over it until the bullet hole started leaking again an hour later. Caliber makes a huge difference.

It amazes me when I think about how many people I know who have been shot.
The general consensus I have taken from them is that getting shot feels like having a red hot railroad spike pounded through your body with a ball bat. |
