welllll, as a teenager I had two incidents.....
1.) One time I blew a hole in the ceiling with a 12 ga. I had gone to my room, grabbed it and chambered a shell. Crows were flying over and I needed one to put on my wall. As I walked down the hall I placed the butt on my belt with the barrel pointed up with the tip near the ceiling. For some reason I thought the safety was on and just pulled trigger. Whoops.....Thankfully nobody else was home. I stuck wet toilet paper in the hole and it was never noticed, believe it or not.
2.) Another day I was on the back deck and a million starlings were flying over. I fetched my trusty, ceiling killer 12 ga. again and came back out and picked out a starling and led it over the top of the house. BLAMMO!!! I didn't notice the starling falling but I did stare in disbelief as our tv antenna went down. An 8 shot pellet sliced a guide wire and down it came. I fixed that one, too, and nobody ever knew. I glanced in the front yard and there was a dead starling. I don't know if I actually hit it or if it died laughing at me. So, if you ever see me walking around with a 12 ga. you might wanna go in another direction.
