[Lilred]

I dont rightly know if this would be classified as stupidity more than anythin else...a few years back i went squirrel huntin fairly early in the season..was still kindly warm..bout 50 degrees that afternoon. I got comforable by a fell over pine..I sat next to the stump. I was there bout 20 minutes er so when I felt somethin crawlin on my back. I thought it was a beetle er somethin crawlin outta that rotted stump I was wallerin on. So i swatted my back a few times and it quit. I figgered I whooped up on it perty good...then I felt the dern thing crawlin crost my britches leg. I done got riled up by then..this here critter was interferin with my huntin. Looked down and i was a dern big ole moccosin slitherin crost my legs! I aint kiddin ya'll neither...at that second I aint know wether I shoulda take off runnin er shrivel up in a ball lol....but I gathered my wits real quick like...picked him up by his head and threw him as fer as I could and I shot him in the head w/ the 22 rifle.

The second was on a huntin trip with my dogs...my ole warhorse Scooter was burnin a rabbit up when the rabbit hit the swamp. All the other dogs stopped but her. This aint no ordinary swamp...and the dogs knew it. They had done got in trouble in there fore..she kept on runnin and fell through the ice in a big ole hole..bout 12ft wide...she couldnt git back up..she had only broken a small hole. So Lilred the idgit jumped in..broke the ice with the butt of my shotgun and swam to her...got her out ok...but that hole was every bit of 8 ft deep..and it was bout 20 degrees out...with a mile walk back to the truck. I was by myself too. I trotted with all 6 beagles back to the truck...good thing I did too ..probaly woulda froze to death iffin I'd walked...it took bout 2 weeks to git the cold outta me.
