My dad's favorite line was, "More people are killed by empty guns than by loaded guns." I had been watching Daniel Boone on tv, who ran out of bullets and swung his rifle at some bad guy, knocking him off his horse, so I nodded knowingly but ...

My mom liked to say, "an apple a day keeps the doctor away." I loved apples and again nodded knowingly since I figured she only wanted me eating one apple a day to scare me about getting a stomach ache from eating all the apples.

My older sister liked to tell the joke about "What is black and white and red all over ... the newspaper, get it 'Read' all over hahaha." I nodded knowingly because the Sunday funny pages were red. I was too young to read, but Gramma read the funny pages to me.

Went to the skeet range a few years ago and one of the "experts" was helping me check comb height - had me shoulder my over under while he looked down the barrel at my eye height. Just unnerved me to be pointing at his head like that - as it should. The only thing I point my unloaded, laser equipped guns at are the cat when he chases the dot around the room.
