Guns don't shoot houses, people do! :-)

and, it reminded me of Green's throw into complete and total double coverage today. Both were piss poor decisions. But you both got away with it. Week 1 complete.

THink of it like this... You luckily avoided any plumbing... :-)
[Reply]

No shit. No wiring, plumbing or appliances (the pantry is right next to the refrigerator). Drywall putty, wood putty and a little paint. All things considered, I got out of this pretty easy.

Actually, I did shoot the refrigerator. That's what stopped the bullet. The hole is in the side of the door right at the bottom. Stopped the damn thing from going through the floor into the basement.

So I've got a big ass dent in the bottom of the door, but it won't really be noticable and won't hurt the functionality of the refrigerator.

Another reason I should have grabbed the Glock - it's loaded with safety slugs. Why I went for the .38 instead I just don't know.

If I don't win the Planet Dumbass of the Week Award, I hate to think what somebody will have to do to beat me. :-)

IMHO there is a reason modern revolvers have double action. Single action is for target shooting. No way should it ever be used in a self defense situation. Count this as a lesson learned, and be thankful no one was hurt.

Of the week? Understatement of that week, maybe. You don't give yourself enough credit. :-)

I suppose you'd hide under the bed and send your wife down to investigate the alarm.

There, I know thats what you were really thinking.

yeah, sorry I didn't mean to come off as a dick. Although I realize that it was exactly how I came off, I just am a big proponent of weapons safety, I do handle weapons on a daily basis I currently carry an M-16 A2 from 7am to 7pm at a NYC train station 5/6 days a week and occasional carry an M9 instead depending on location. Even in times of distress we are not allowed to even chamber a round, much less take it off safe, unless we are 100% sure that we are going to shoot and kill someone who deserves it. It's more out of concern for you and your safety, I'm glad that you are taking steps to make sure it never happens again. :-)

haha I can just imagine the look on your face though, that shits straight out of the movies.

36 minutes until game time!!!!!!!!!!!!

Note to self: Guns + Frazod = Bad :-)

My Dad lives out by Longview Lake, and he some crazy white guy covered in tatoos with no shirt banging on his door last December trying to let my Dad let him sleep on his couch. Of course he said no, told the guy to leave, the guy wouldn't, so he called the cops.

About 45 minutes later the guy is back, banging on his door, so my Dad shows him his pistol and tells him to get the hell away from his house, and calls the cops again.

About 30 minutes later my Mom hears a noise, wakes up my dad, and they hear somebody jiggling the door handle trying to get thier house. My dad slips down the ahllway, into the living room, and as he chambers a round into 9mm the sound is just enough to set off a dancing Christmas catus singing "Felis Navadas" they had set up with their Christmas stuff.

The bullet hit 3 feet over the Christmas Cactus' head and put a hole through a 150 year old book case and half dozen antique books. Needless to say they guy never came back, and my mom was pissed about her book case.
