Gooey Brains
Once upon a time I was in a bar. It was a hot summer night, and raining like hell. The place was packed and the service was good. Amazing! Anyway, a couple of guys got crossed up, and drew their guns. The next thing I knew – the guy next to me was dead, (we were shoulder to shoulder) and his brains were splattered all over me. (took an errant .45 to the forehead – missed me by 15 in.) If you’ve never seen gray matter, well I just don’t know what to say. Brains are gooey. I exited the bar (hauled my ass out as fast as I could – had some friends with me as well), and met the 60 year old Cop who was about to retire on the way in with a Billy Club. I said “You’re going to need a little more than that club – they’ve got guns going on in there”. He ran in anyway, turned his ass around, broke for cover, and called for backup. It was like the Wild Wild West.
Bottom Line: 3 DEAD & 2 WOUNDED.
Bad JuJu!
Anyone want to go drinking with me? Shit happens.
Good thing it was raining – I was able to wash in the gutter.

Uhhh. I'm speechless.
All I can say is:
OMG Sam! Is that a true story?!??
Yes, unfortunately, this is a TRUE story.
Wackos is putting it mildly. I am glad you are safe...
In 1983 I "went along for the ride" to drop chow&hardrice to a Honduran army patrol. The doorgunner took a burst of auto-rifle fire to the abdomen, we were shoulder to shoulder in the port door. Pilot got us out fast and low. Doorgunner was a game sob, stayed on that 60 till it fired dry, even tried to reload, before the light went out of his eyes. The deck was covered in blood and his intestines. Next time someone asks if you want to go along for the ride, say no, back away slowly.
