Fla. Boy Avoids Serious Harm From Gunshot

LAUREL HILL, Fla. - A few extra pounds may have saved
James "Bubba" Taylor's life. The boy, who turns 9 on Tuesday,
avoided serious injury after being struck by a .38-caliber bullet
during a target-shooting accident, officials said.
"He's a little chunky," his grandmother, Alice Harper,
told the Northwest Florida Daily News for its Tuesday editions.
"Thank God."
Taylor was shot Saturday by a neighbor, James Hinshaw, 44,
who was practicing marksmanship with the child. The bullet entered
Taylor's right side, and traveled through his flesh without striking any organs.
Harper said the boy didn't even originally realize he'd been shot
until he looked down and saw blood.
"He heard the shot and it scared him because he was so close," Harper said.
Taylor was taken by helicopter to a hospital, where he was treated and
released the same day. The Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office is classifying
the incident as an accident.

If the fat bastard hadn't been so damn fat, the bullet might have missed
his fat ass.

Luckily there was a CH-53E available at a nearby airforce base.

A Chinook Skyhook--
There was a big Spanish-style red terracotta tile roofed
ranch house on a hill in California-- they hadn't landscaped
it, and it was amazing to watch. The back where the swimming
pool was got grass, shrubs, and palm trees around the pool,
the palm trees were dropped into holes by helicopter!
Construction 'copters are cool, they got cut-out bellies,
all cargo is external.
