RE: starbuck horror stori

I had a friend who use to like to run over rabbits and shoot at them with a pellet gun. He thought it would be funny to bring me along on his adventure.....I asked if I could try. He said yes. Turns out I have excellent aim and can hit an ass at 3 feet. I can also run like the wind. It was a long walk home but well worth it.

A little hint about pellet guns...it hurts them a hell of a lot more and hell of a lot longer if you whack them between the eyes with the stock.

PEI...for now
:lol: Pellet guns also smart like hell if you fill them up with NerdsTM. It's a little less lethal, and you can stick a whole bunch in instead of one pellet.

One day myself and the guy who pee'd on the electric fence were playing darts.

Most people understand that darts consists of thowing darts at a purpose made target.

Our dart board currently had a picture of some celebrity on it, in order to enable us to practice our target shooting with my air rifle. Therefore we were using the next best thing as a target - ourselves.

The game was played with us stood at either end of the room. We would then take turns throwing darts into the floor as close to the other person as possible. What a fun game I hear you say ;-)

It was my turn. I lined up, took a deep breath, took aim and hurled my dart. It was a good one, it was going to miss my friend by inches - fantastic! He was not so sure. In a desperate attempt to save himself brought on by a primal instinct for self preservation, my mate decided to leap out of the way. It was a good leap, plenty of flourish and panache and worthy of an olympic high jumper. Unfortunately for him, all he did was ensure that the dart actually did hit him. He would have been safe if he hadn't moved.

All pretty funny, but the funniest parts to this story are firstly that my friend had decided that he would play this game with bare feet :) and secondly his reaction. He slowly lifted his bare foot with a dart sticking out of it, looked at it for a few seconds, turned slowly to me and said quite calmly.... "I've got a dart in my foot".

Well, two weeks later after a load of anti-biotics and a plaster or two, he was fine.

We had a rope swing too Henry- it claimed many victims!! The swing took you out right over a main road...not too safe but you don't think of that when you are a kid. Anyway I was playing on it with a friend and we decided it would be a good idea to take a real long run up and jump on to it so we swang right out over the road, that was OK, apart from the fact that I swang right into a tree root that was sticking out of the ground and really hurt my back!! I still have a numb patch there today!!

One of my friends had an incident with that swing too. Her cousin came over to visit from Holland and she was under strict instruction to take him out, but stay away from the tree!! Surprisingly enough the tree drew them to it- he swang out over the road, lost his grip, fell down on to the road and broke his arm...couldn't really hide that!! LOL.

Funnily enough someone went up there and cut the branch off that tree- I'm sure the kids have found another one though!!

I don't know about that. The size of the bruise on his ass was the size of his ass.

Ah yes, the rope swing! Such fine memories I have of that rope swing.

Electric fence boy, various other old friends and myself descovered that it was really cool to let go of the swing at about 30 foot from the ground and land in a strategically placed bush
