How my husband died in our Shania Twain sex game

American Idol Carrie Underwood has already recorded a song about it.

Before He Cheats

Right now, she's probably up singing some
white-trash version of Shania karaoke..
Right now, she's probably saying "I'm drunk"
and he's a thinking that he's gonna get lucky,

It would seem to me his wound would disprove her allegation-it's unlikely a gun on the floor could shoot a man in the chest, especially if he's sitting in a chair.

You're assuming he was sitting upright. You have to put yourself in the situation.....they were playing a sex game with a loaded gun, listening to Shania Twain.....let your imagination go wild here.

You're assuming that the gun went off while the gun was lying perfectly flat on the floor. It seems to me more likely that someone setting a shotgun down (especially someone who is drunk) might not have held the gun perfectly parallel to the floor at all times. More likely is that she was setting it down on an angle, and the barrel was still pointing up when the butt of the rifle touched the ground, causing the discharge.

A possibility, yes.

Thanks for the "Queen's" English lesson. Those snobby British. They speak English and still have a different word for everything.

[visualops]

Oh I can imagine all sorts , and if the gun truly was faulty, then I suppose she's lucky(if you can call it that) she didn't shoot herself.

Is the BSA500 shotgun a pump shooter?

[F.J. Mitchell]

Shotguns don't kill,erotic dancers do.

[jennyjenny]

Actually, I was kidding. Try as I might, I still can't get this part:

The song contains erotically-charged lyrics.

The song just doesn't do a darn thing for me, nevermind the part about a man in a dressing robe insisting I dance with a gun.

[looscnnn]

Something doesn't add up: "Mr West was found dead in an armchair by police....He had a single shotgun wound to his chest....She said that at the end of the song she put the shotgun on to the floor beside her. With tears streaming down her face she said: "It just went off…it just went bang."

How could he get a single shotgun wound to his chest if the shotgun is laying on the ground and he is in a chair? It does not make sense. I would think that there would be wounds to his legs instead or along with.

A weapons expert told the court that the safety catch, used to prevent the accidental firing of the gun, was faulty and it could have gone off without anyone touching the trigger.

I have a feeling she either a) shot him on purpose or b) with the faulty safety accidently pulled the trigger while dancing. I am leaning more towards A due to the story not adding up.

That doesn't bother me. What I can't get over is their insistence on clinging to those old-fashioned separate hot and cold water taps. The hot water comes out of one spigot, the cold comes out of another. So when you wash your hands, you have to hold your hands under one faucet, then another. Scald, freeze. Scald, freeze.

[wimpycat]

If she did shoot him on purpose, she's got one of the most creative false alibis I've ever heard of.

Headline of the day ping!

[visualops]

a man in a dressing robe

definitely something wrong with that picture lol

[humblegunner]

Oh, sure.. it's all fun and Shania Twain sex games until someone gets hurt.

[Dashing Dasher]

LOL!

Ping!

PS... I shouldn't laugh - it's not polite.

BWAAAAHAAAHAAA

[Dashing Dasher]

Larry,

We are talking TAGLINE here!

A shotgun is no substitute for a brass poll.

[Dashing Dasher]

It's Shania's fault.

I blame Bush.

[rattrap]

Might wanna change that tagline to "pole", unless you're talking about a survey ;-)

His tagline and he spells it wrong! Damn that Larry!
