Black Bart Beware!

I kind of had an unusual Christmas this year in regards to gifts. It seems that Valerie blatantly disregarded everything we should have learned from the movie "A Christmas Story" and bought me not an Official Red Ryder BB Gun but instead the next best thing, a Remington 870 12-Guage Shotgun.

"You'll put an eye out" - hardly, more like, "You'll take a head off".
It is unusual in the sense that I'm not really the hunter/killer/militia-forming type. (can you shoot geocaches?)

A couple of days ago though, we did take the gun and some family (also armed) to a skeet range in Ravensdale and you know what? It was pretty darned fun to shoot. Valerie I guess knows me better than I know me. Can't wait to get back and punish those clay pigeons some more although admittedly, most died by suicidally driving themselves into the gound rather than by gunshot on our first visit.

Great Aim and Keen Fashion Sense
