Nah.....I reckon he just got a deal on a young tender one, that the pig farmer didn't want to feed out ......

Speaking of shooting hogs (one more story .....).

I was quite young and had my bolt action, single shot, .22 rifle with short ammo out around the hog barn. We had this old hog that had gone paralyzed in the hind quarters that was not recovering and just eating feed.

My father told to me to shot it, since I had my rifle out there. So, I sat down in front of the poor hog and fired a round ..... right between the eyes. The hog did nothing but squeal loudly ...... so, I pumped another round between his eyes and another and another ...... I was crying the whole time because the hog wouldn't die and just kept squealing.

My grandfather jumped off the tractor and slammed the hog in the head with a 2 pound hammer ....... and then it quit squealing.

Then my father scolded me for using so much ammo ....... and that I should have known to shoot it from behind the head!

Haha was joking really.

Nah, I've sold many cars over time. In the past few years I've just sold my 2000 GS-R and the BRZ. The 93 MR2 and the 95 M3 will be up for sale once I get around to it though. Both might go onto BAT.
