Pistol-Packin' Mama, Lay That Pistol Down!

Sometimes, taking a break from college to visit a parent can be like a shot in the arm.  All the more so, in fact, if the visit is a surprise, and you burst in unannounced on nervous kinfolk who are packing.  So it was for this intellectually challenged young lady, who is unaccountably smiling in her hospital photo, and posted all about her clever exploits on social media.

One would hope she learns an important life lesson from this, given that, by dumb luck alone, the shot tore through her arm, several inches from any vital organs.  Her mom should take a moment to puzzle on this as well, perhaps even to consider the value of pausing to identify one's target before going all trigger-happy in a moment of panic.  Neither one of them seems particularly gifted, and I am inclined to wonder how many Darwin Awards have already been taken by other members of this family.
