Nope, only stole 4 pieces from Mady. Have to do it slowly so they don't notice candy missing.

Yesterday was the last day for early voting here, too. I didn't get over there, so I guess I get to fight the crowds Tuesday. It's sort of academic here, at least for the Presidential vote. Texas always goes Republican anyway. But the local contests will be close...

lol yikes. I have nabbed many squirrels, about a billion chipmunks and a couple of birds in my day. Whacked a pigeon one time in the stroke. Surprised it didn't do any damage it sounded awful. *THUNK*. I was on a roadtrip with my sister once and she nailed a hummingbird, stuck beak first between the body panel and the headlight, that one was kinda sad.

We used to have a dog, Lizzie, loved to torture squirrels. She would never kill them, just paralyze them. Many times I came home from high school only to find some squirrel, paralyzed back end, trying to drag himself across the street with his two front legs. The neighbors got used to me pulling out the pellet gun to put the critters out of their misery.

When I was a kid, my dad, my brother and I were driving on some dirt road up in the mountains, watching a few swifts trying to fend off a hawk that was terrorizing their nest. Well the swifts musta had a hard bite because the hawk was on the run. He tried to escape them via evasive maneuver under my dads truck, but the hawk never came back out the other side. We figured we missed him but when we got home, we smelled burning hair. The hawk was spanned out, and wedged in the front suspension of the truck, burned to a crisp.

You could do like my parents did when I was a kid, and tell them the good candy is poisoned.

I already voted with my absentee ballot.
It is the way to go, sitting in the living room and filling it out, then just mail it in.

Hey everyone, been away shooting all week to prep for Iraq trip in Feb. Went through about a 1000 rounds of 9mm and 5.56cal. Loads of fun being taught by the company CIS (Critical Incident Solutions) which basically was a group of retired / former snipers, SOCOM, SpecOps Marines. Great time shooting, woulda been better if I didn't have to wear 45 pounds of flak jacket.....

Wanted to thank you Lisa for the CD, great tunes indeed!!

Hey ya'll I posted another post concerning maybe selling my baby, if you get a chance please put your opinion down on that post.

P.S.- did you know that when you hit a hummingbird at 10 yds with a .20 pellet it's entire head can pop off??

You all get up too early. No door bells at my place either. Then again we weren't home. I'm another who needs a Crown Royal proofed phone, mine went for a swim too.

Yea I found some cheetos in my house and decided to take a pic of everything for kicks, since we were talking about it the other day. Oh you know you'd look
