TS needs you prayers

Froggie go a courtin and he did ride
with a sword and pistol by his side

Seems T S decided this was a good idea and here are the results

Quote:
CHANDLER, Ariz. — A suburban Phoenix man is recovering after police say he accidentally shot himself in the penis while putting his girlfriend's gun in the waistband of his pants.

Chandler police say 57-year-old TS and his fiancée, Cara Christopher, were walking toward a grocery store when the shooting happened last week. The gun fired, striking TS's penis and continuing through his left thigh.

The Arizona Republic reports (http://bit.ly/oEjass ) a 911 operator told Christopher to apply direct pressure to the wound with a dry towel or T-shirt.

Chandler Police Detective Seth Tyler was unsure of the type of gun, or whether it had a safety that was off. He also says it's unclear if TS has been released from the hospital or suffered any permanent damage

In the wake of the shooting, Tyler warned residents to use holsters, not waistbands, if they're going to carry a handgun.
I swear I thought he said he used an Eagle holster.

__________________
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

1. I use a Kramer holster.
2. I'm not that old......
3. And yes, single again.
4. I'd never carry a pistol in that manner.

The ignominy of shooting your pecker with a pink pistol. Later reports state it was a Taurus .380.

That's what makes the story funnier than in its original form. A good story is 95+% true with only small embellishments here or there.
