"The covey flushed and the vice president picked out a bird and was following it and shot. And by god, Harry was in the line of fire and got peppered pretty good."

Yeah. Meanwhile when you see the guy with the shotgun leading a bird and he’s swinging around to your location it’s pretty much SOP to drop to the deck. It’s an oldie but a goodie and it works too, provided the guy isn’t trying to shoot you.

To: Who dat?

to be introduced this week (joke):

Kerry's/Hillary's Gun Contol Bill: Bill indicates that Hunters over 65 years of age will have to surrender their firearms, before they receive their check (SSoc) or Prescription discounts.

I would't put it past them.

Whittington's getting up there in years, himself, so I'm not so sure his 78-year-old reflexes would necessarily be what they once were. I'm giving Dick Cheney the benefit of the doubt and relying on what Anne Armstrong said happened, since she witnessed it.

NBC Brian Williams led off the news segment with "Bizarre News from Texas." Said three times how "bizarre" and "strange" this story is. To me, it's "bizarre" and "strange" to think that the story could be described by those words.

On a side note, this is the exact scenario that was relayed to me in junior high school, one lunch period, by which we all heard that JFK had died. The buzz was that LBJ and Kennedy were hunting on a ranch in south Texas and that LBJ accidentally (we kids added "on purpose" in our passing it along) shot and killed JFK--and that they weren't going to tell us Kennedy was dead until later.

Back in class a few minutes later, the announcement came over the intercom about the shooting in downtown Dallas and JFK still alive.
