I have a quick story that may be amusing for some. For some, it may be pathetic.

We have a ground hog that is systematically undermining an outside shed. The shed houses lawn things like a wooden wishing well and windmill. They are heavy and a royal pain to pull out. The shed also houses lawn equipment and the like.

One day, I decided to shoot the ground hog after fixing the damage it had caused.. The weapon I was using was a target model .22 automatic. The groundhog was no more than ten feet away. It was an easy kill. He was sitting there eating his dinner.

I didn't pull the trigger on him. My lady told me later she didn't want me to shoot him anyhow. She asked why I didn't shoot him and I said, I didn't want to ruin his dinner. If the groundhog had a weapon and was trying to hurt me, I would have emptied the clip on him. Shrugs.

I told her I would instead trap him and release him in the wild, not far from us..
