A Macon man told police he was protecting his wife, three kids, and his home after he shot at an intruder.

A Macon Police report says it happened at Hidden Lakes Apartment complex Sunday around 3 a.m.

The man told officers he was asleep on his living room sofa, when he heard a noise.

The man says he woke up to find a man coming through his window. He says he yelled at the intruder, but he kept coming through the window, according to the police report.

The man says he sleeps with a gun, so he pulled it out and fired two rounds at the intruder, according to the police report.

The intruder backed out of the window, according to the police report. The man says he doesn’t know if he hit the intruder, but he did hit his big screen television. The officer says he ran a check on the man and his gun, and both came back clean.

Probably just sick of that whiny nasal umming-and-erring voice that’s on the tube 24/7

I'm patient with you,
I've treated you right,
but you drink and flirt and go out every night.
I tried to love you,
but you just want to fight,
forgive and forget, that's what I say.

I forgave and forgot,
but I just couldn't see
the violence in your personality,
‘til you got my gun and you shot it at me,
you got David Brinkley right between the eyes.

You shot the TV but you were aiming at me,
I dodged and you missed by a mile.
Our love failed the test and now you're under arrest,
and I won't have to see you for awhile.

I wonder how much alcohol was involved...

Translation: a kidney-shaped pool in the center (empty save for the beer cans and sun-bleached, overturned Big Wheel) surrounded by a chain link fence?

"The officer says he ran a check on the man and his gun, and both came back clean. "

But did he come back sober?

[Texas Jack]

Yep, based upon what’s on TV, I’d say the bullet wasn’t wasted.

[OldSpice]

Did he then chuck the tv out?

They're never hidden very far from the 7-11, either.

Man enters FR, finds odd coincidental arrangement of noun, verbs on his ping list.
