Not much goes on at night, especially in the colder months. Have to have something to pass the time.

Ryan, here's the story.
A few summers ago we had a REALLY bad problem with Skunks in our neighborhood. I'm just talking about the houses on the north and south side of our street and one block long.
Anyway I get a call from a preacher friend of ours that lives at the end of the block. He has a skunk in his yard. Now he knows I have a nice pellet rifle (RWS Diana model 45 .177) that spits out about 1000fps. Anyway I go down there, see the skunk about 15-20 yards away walking away from me. I sight in on the back of his head and BLAM, down he goes. But all I did was sever his spinal cord cause his front legs are still working and he's trying to crawl off but his back end isn't working. I walk up to about 10 feet and plant another one in his head. Dead skunk, no stink. Well over the summer I killed a total of I think 9 skunks all total and folks just started calling me the Skunk hunter.

Out of all those skunks, I only had one to spray and that was very little. I felt very fortunate. Oh and the city killed 3 and the guy across the street got one with a 20ga shotgun.

Oh and the plunger actually shooting is something JJ (Jarheadjournalist) did for me one night and he is hosting it for me in his photo account. I think he did rather well. He had one that shot a lot faster but this, the slower one, has more of a surprise factor the first time you see it.

Oops, the wife just spilled some kind of dye on her shirt and is very upset about it. I better do the consoling husband thing.
If any of you guys leave before I get back on here, Take care of yourselves and be careful. It's a crazy world out there.
