Um, nobody said there was going to be word problems on this test.

see, it wasn't the bullet's fault, she got in its way

"I was listening to NPR and thinking what a beautiful day it was," Long said.

Now THAT'S hilarious.

Damn!

Sooooooo close!

She has the potential to be a hottie.. despite having an idiot factory for a womb.

"I keep coming back to this - I'm the luckiest person in the world"

No, I think the luckiest people in the world are those that hit the lottery, or those that missed death and we, and they, will never know about the near deaths.

No I like it. I'm going to consider myself the luckiest person in the world every day that I don't die.

Um... shiat, carry the 2... convert 307th Street to metric...

The car left the station first.

Without even reading TFA. That's an awesomely descriptive paragraph that tells the whole story in a timeline-dramatic way.

I nearly flew to Florida and went swimming in brackish water and could've been eaten by a Bull Shark, but I didn't...luckiest person alive.

I'm telling people these wild "luckiest stories" every day.

"I accidentally swallowed a 1996 Geo Prism with rotating hubcaps and a back seat loaded with unstable C4, but it idn't kill me, so I'm really getting a ki*BOOM*

The bullet cost her a tooth. Three inches higher and it could have cost her life. Stephen and Tyler - both autistic, one with cerebral palsy - would have lost their mother.

Steven Tyler is autistic with cerebral palsy? That explains so much!

Exactly! Turn that frown upside down =D.

Something similar happened around these parts in the eighties. Some schmuck driving along a road with his window down, while a 7,62mm bullet originating from a shooting ranger something like two or three kilometers away came flying through the air.
Apart from the bit where the bullett hit his temple, knocked him unconcious, and had him wrap his Volvo around a tree. Just dumb luck made the coroner wonder about the strange bruising on his temple, which lead to the discovery of the 7,62mm bullet on the floor of the car.

/And THAT'S the reason why overshots are discouraged
//Especially applies to anti-tank weapons and other rocket weapons.

hit me with your best shot

why don't you hit me with your best shot?

I hope they find the farking idiot who fired the gun.

If she had washed one more dish, left her aunt's house a second earlier - or later - or if she had been driving a mile an hour slower - or faster - that bullet would have landed harmlessly in a field to perhaps be found by an archaeologist 1,000 years from now.

God is really trying to tell you something here. He doesn't like you.

Could one have met the other at a different instant instead of both at the same?

I bet the next time her husband asks "Baby, can I shoot it on your face?" that she's going to wince a little.

These things happen all the time

I don't know why, buy I kind of want a beej from her, or at least I did while she was still severely injured. Quick, somebody shoot her in the face again.

Reminds me of a bit of Jeremy Clarkson made-for-TV madness when he let loose with an AK47 into the sky. I immediately wondered: "I hope he knows where those are going to come down". I was kinda hoping the BBC Health and Safety nazis were downrange keeping it clear of targets.

Oh for the days when news editors fired wannabe novelists and hired someone who could write news. What crap.

What is it with women and their need for movie star lips?

A gorgor comment with no picture? What is this...nbcsandiego.com or something?

That is a pretty messed up picture accompanying the article.

Deadeye Dick?

What I got from this story was:

If you're far enough in the boonies that people are sighting in hunting rifles, it's time to stop numbering your streets sequentially.

I didn't know Dick Cheney hunted dear.

Point02GPA: Deadeye Dick?

I see what you did there.

Why does she have a black eye in the later picture, but not the first? The bullet didn't cause that black eye (by slamming her head for example). Maybe her husband, or maybe one of her sons.

bam! right in the kisser!
bam! right in the kisser!
bam! right in the kisser!

bassmaster! I'd have had it first, but I spent time looking for the cover I wanted.

(and it was a hot shot)

Rule Four: Be sure of your target and what's beyond it.

I'm glad to see an empty field is safe due to somebody's conscientious adherence to the rules.

The bullet zipped over fields and pasture from the south as Long's car traveled west from her aunt's house. The two would meet at a point on 307th Street at precisely the same instant.



THAT'S A FARGIN' TRICK QUESTION!

I wish I would've met you, now it's a little late.

"I was listening to NPR and thinking what a beautiful day it was," Long said.

Cool story, sis.

Not very nice of the reporter to use a shot like that. She obviously didn't get a chance to put on makeup.

FTA: "The boys are so lucky to still have their mom," {her husband} said.

Sounds like somebody missed.

God Bless You Mr.elev8meL8r.

Where's the "BOOM, Headshot!" guy?

I wonder if the window of the car was closed if it would had deflected the bullet ever so slightly.
