Getting sprayed with pellets when hunting quail is pretty much on the same level as getting snagged with a hook while fly fishing, it's just something that happens. As long as you don't get hit in the eyes the main thing is to get all the pellets out to avoid infection, the people who I've known that its happened to say that it doesn't hurt much more than getting hit with a tennis ball.
And the murderer is still free.
Whew! The "set of 4" over $400,000?! This specific model Cheney has doesn;t even have a price set: http://www.perazzi.com/std/coord.asp?cdSrv=catalogo_prod&cdLng=en&idCategoria=55&
Beautiful!
I heard it was Al Gore, having parachuted in the night before from a Saudi Airlines jetliner. Yeah, apparently he has been despondent ever since Florida and he finally snapped. His neighbors have called him a loner. One believe he subscribes to Soldier of Fortune and a local librarian confirmed reports that he has checked out a number of Gore Vidal novels.
"And as for the incident itself - Cheney is such a fool! Lesson #1 is no one, I mean NO ONE, should pull the trigger until they ID the target."
Cheyney ID'd the target--flushed quail. (Even lawyers, flapping their arms don't sound like quail flushing.) Too bad the lawyer was also in the line of fire.
What surprises me is that we haven't heard, once, that it was a terrifying semi-automatic assault shotgun, a favorite of terrorists and Elmer Fudd.
Here's another great place to buy a high quality shotgun if you're in the market.

Reminds me of the punchline of a joke. Doctor talking about a hunter brought in by two other hunters: I believe he would have made it if they hadn't gutted him.
Wow! It will be quite a while before I can afford one of those ; )
bttt
Breaking! Poll: 90% would rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy. The difference between VP Cheney and Teddy. At least Teddy has one confirmed kill. Jesse Jackson claims it was racist, no black lawyers were shot. PETA should be happy. At least he didn't beat a rare swimming attack bunny over the head with an oar like Jimma Carter. Vince Foster couldn't be reached for comment.
Teddy's sister was once quoted as saying "I'd rather have had a bottle in front of me"
I told my wife I wanted one and she just glared at me, her uncle has a pair of them though.
Good luck with that - I suppose the uncle knows you are deserving of a special bequest in his Will at least?
Where is Al Gore when you need a hunting partner?
I'm guessing that my wife's cousins will get them.
If you have asked to be added to this list, and haven’t been receiving the pings, please let me know. I’ve had a problem with my file synchronization between my home and work computer, and apparently have lost some names on the list. I think I have the problem fixed, and will gladly re-add your name.
Dick Cheney did not sneak away from the scene of the accident. Dick Cheney made sure his friend was properly taken care of. Dick Cheney did not call all of his friends to worm himself out of any responsibility for the accident.
Dick Cheney cared about his friend and did not leave him in his time of need like some other sanctimonious blowhard philandeering drunken swimmer.
