HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE TWO DUCK HUNTERS FROM WISCONSIN? ABSOLUTELY A TRUE STORY HEARD ON A WISCONSIN RADIO STATION REPORTING ON THE INCIDENT
A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00
(with monthly payments of $560.00)
He and a friend go duck hunting in mid-winter; and
of course all of the lakes are frozen. These two guys go on a lake with
their GUNS, a DOG, and of course the new NAVIGATOR
They decide they want to make a natural looking
water area for the ducks, something for the decoys to float on
Now making a hole in the ice large enough to invite
a passing duck, is going to take a little more power than the average
drill auger can produce. So, out of the back of the new Navigator comes
a stick of dynamite with a short 40 second-fuse. Now our two Rocket
Scientists afraid they might slip on the ice while trying to run away
after lighting
the fuse (and becoming toast, along with the Navigator), decide on the
following course of action: they light the 40 second fuse; then, with a
mighty thrust, they throw the stick of dynamite as far away as possible.
Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the NAVIGATOR, the
GUNS, and the DOG
Let's talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab
used for RETRIEVING. Especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed
it: the dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and grabs
the stick of dynamite
with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the ice
The two men swallow, blink, start waving their arms
and, with veins in their necks swelling to resemble stalks of
rhubarb, scream and holler at the dog to stop. The dog, now
apparently cheered on by his master, keeps coming. One
hunter panics, grabs the shotgun and shoots the dog.
The shotgun is loaded with #8 bird shot, hardly big
enough to stop a Black Lab. The dog stops for a moment, slightly
confused then continues on Another shot, and this time the dog, still
standing becomes really confused and of course terrified, thinks these
two geniuses have gone insane. The dog takes off to find cover, under
the brand new Navigator. The men continue to scream as they run. The red
hot exhaust pipe on the truck touches the dogs rear end, he yelps, drop the
dynamite under the truck and takes off after his master
Then """"""""""BOOOOOOOOOOOOM""""""""""!!!! The
truck is blown to bits and sinks to the bottom of the lake, leaving the
two idiots standing there with "I can't believe this just happened"
looks on their faces
The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in
a lake by illegal use of explosives is NOT COVERED by the
policy...And he still had yet to make the first of those monthly $560
payments...
The dog is okay though :whistle: :mrgreen:
