quade 3 #5 July 30, 2002 Hmmm, let's see what's the equation for this? Texans + Alcohol + Religious Debate + Shotgun = Bad Idea. Man, nobody coulda seen that one coming!quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jfields 0 #8 July 30, 2002 QuoteTexans + Alcohol + Religious Debate + Shotgun = Bad Idea You have some superfluous components in your equation. It should be: Alcohol + Shotgun = Bad Idea Since alcohol will always be around, perhaps this is yet another example of why gun control could save lives.

quade 3 #9 July 30, 2002 I have a limited understanding of chemistry, but I don't think that alcohol and gun powder are hypergolic. I'm pretty sure you need somebody and some reason to pull the trigger.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #11 July 30, 2002 QuoteFlame away, but first, tell it to the dead guy... Not a flame, but the guy who owned the shotgun is a corrections officer so gun control laws probably wouldn't have kept it out of his hands anyway. Now, by the power of the all mighty indyz, I command that this thread shall not turn into a gun control debate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TomAiello 25 #13 July 30, 2002 If you get a chance, watch the BASE video "Beyond Extreme" (it's an Australian Video). There's a great scene in which one BASE jumper challenges another to shoot him in the back with a twelve gauge shotgun. A third jumper films the madness. Unlike the Texans, though, the BASE jumper takes the 12 gauge blast like a man, gets up, and geeks the camera. True story, all real, no tricky video editing.
