Okay, if I ever get accidentally shot in the butt, please keep it as low key as this.

Here’s the entire story.  It’s Gary, Illinois.

GARY | A Gary woman was shot in the buttocks Sunday morning in an apparent accidental shooting in the city’s Miller section, police said.

The 27-year-old woman was taken to a hospital for treatment after the shooting about 8:40 a.m. in the 5800 block of Forest Court, Lt. Dawn Westerfield said. The woman’s wounds were not life-threatening.

The circumstances surrounding the shooting remain under investigation, Westerfield said. She declined to release more details pending further investigation.

Look, enough said.

 

That’s It!

Last night while watching the GOP debate, I kept getting a feeling of deja vu.  Bubba told me it was deja poo.

But, I seriously had an odd feeling that I’d been there before.  Then it hit me.

Remember when you went to camp in the summer and you all sat around the campfire at night and told made-up scary stories while holding a flashlight under your chin, trying to scare the beejeebers out of everybody?

Ding!

That’s what last night was.

Well, that and some stuff meant solely to scare little children who need brain surgery.

And that whole Ted won’t shuddup episode.

Yeah, maybe Bubba was right.

Who Else Saw This?

It’s not a great picture, but look at Ted’s hand.

Is he becoming Napoleon?

Maybe he’s going to claim he loves America more because his hand is closer to his heart.

He’s weird.

Going to the Dogs

You need to watch this.  You really do.

Okay, why didn’t that dog bite her?

She ate Milk Bones as a kid?  Well, that kinda explains why she whines so much.

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

Reality TeeVee

December 15, 2015 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I have a friend who absolutely believes that Donald Trump’s run for president is a live reality teevee show.

I thought … nah, he’s spending money instead of making money.  He makes money on reality teevee.

But now I am starting to wonder

Every week until Election Day 2016, Showtime will air a half-hour “real-time documentary” about what’s happening on the campaign trail.

The series, called “The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth,” comes from Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, the hosts of a daily political talk show on Bloomberg TV, and Mark McKinnon, a famed campaign strategist.

Oh my gosh, it’s now a reality show.  For real.  You gotta wonder if Donald Trump owns stock in Showtime.

Production is already underway: McKinnon was spotted with a camera crew at a Marco Rubio rally in Las Vegas on Monday.

My friend is acting all smug this morning.  “See?” he keeps saying.

But there’s more.  If you watch the series House of Cards about President Frank Underwood, murderer, philanderer, life destroyer, and political genius, life might be ready to imitate art.  This was also announced today.

When a handful of wannabe presidents square off at Tuesday night’s Republican debate, one faux president will make a “special announcement.”

A cryptic message from the official Twitter account of the “House of Cards” set the stage. “BREAKING NEWS: President Underwood will be making a special announcement during the #GOPDebate,” the tweet said.

So which Republican presidential candidate is really Frank Underwood. My bet is Ted Cruz.

Oh hell, my friend is right.  This whole damn thing is reality teevee.

Smug, my friend is acting smug.

Thanks to Bryan, who used to be my friend.

Fun With Guns: Can I Get a Refund? Edition

Out in California, a gun safety instructor shot one of his students.  Phillip Rushing, the instructor, shot his student, who also happens to be a popular local minister.

The Victim

The Victim

“During the scenario, the instructor drew the firearm and it accidentally discharged,” she said. She did not know whether Rushing forgot he replaced the training gun or whether he knew he was drawing the real gun.

“When it fired and he realized what happened, he immediately dialed 911.”

The article notes that they have closed the school for the day after that.

The minister was shot in the stomach and underwent successful surgery.  They say he’s in plenty of pain but he will make a complete recovery.
