Yoohoo and Gunpowder

This afternoon after church some of the Sons of Zion gathered at our happy hunting ground (aka "The Farm") to do a little bonding with nature. And by bonding with nature I mean shooting stuff with shotguns. Very fun.
Me, Cal-El, his brother, Islamabad and his little brother, 2 people who I don't have cool names for, and a new addition from The Church set on the Hills who named himself inadvertantly, The Red Dragon Knight of the PB's.
So we all set out on our adventure to shoot the enemy, which were clay pigeons, or skeets depending on where you live. Quickly we realized that this was no fun since only one person, Cal-el's little brother, was able to hit them. Instead we turned to more interesting targets like about 6 glass bottles of YooHoo. Which made excellent targets.
I was the first to shoot the YooHoo and we all cheered with excitment when I squeezed the trigger and watched the glass, wrapper, and yoohoo totally evaporate before our eyes. I mean there was nothign left, except a very distinct smell as you went to where the remains would have been which smelled like Yoohoo and Gunpowder. And a little like hot chocolate. Probably because the speed at which the tiny little bb's were speeding through the glass and milk it heated the milk to hot chocolate consistancy. Thats just a hypothesis though.
Now I know what you are asking.....Where are the pictures?

I am almost ashamed to say that I forgot a camera, and so did everyone else, and so I relied on my ability to paint you a picture using my words. So enjoy, and drink a YooHoo for the hustle & flow.

Peace!

by the way. i'm SO deadly serious about the pyre/bonfire at the bach-out. because, unlike y'all, i CAN shoot and hit a target. just so you know. pyre = far side of old house OUT OF SIGHT.

Did you just want to use "hustle and flow" somewhere in this post? Cause I'm not sure it fits there...needs to sound more...ghetto.

No...it works Owl. You just arn't hustle and flowed' up so you just don't know.

Pyre = place where we can burn the most and make it the MOST visible

no seriously. mom and i are going to kill y'all. besides, y'all should feel really guilty for going down there and blowing stuff up when there is a lot of stuff granddaddy needs help with. although, today, those two things coincide: granddaddy needs help getting stuff burned.

Thank you very much, we ASKED your grandaddy when we went and he said there wasn't anything he needed help with. Plus it was a Sunday afternoon. What really are we going to get done in an hour or 2 on a sunday afternoon?
Nada. So we blew stuff up...so thankyou I wont feel guilty. And we did help him today.

Hustle & Flow that! (Lol)
