Would-be squirrel-killer injured after taping cartridge to BB gun

Gainesville, FL

A man who tried to shoot a squirrel for dinner by taping a .40-caliber cartridge to a BB gun was hospitalized with shrapnel wounds after the cartridge exploded, Gainesville police reported.

A sworn complaint was filed against William Daniel Lloyd, 31, for discharging a firearm in public and possession of ammunition by a convicted felon, Officer Ben Tobias stated in a press item.

Officer Diana Mattern responded to a medical emergency call at 600 SE 12th Terrace and learned that Lloyd had taped the cartridge to the end of a BB gun to shoot a squirrel, Tobias said.

Lloyd fired the BB gun, causing the BB to strike the cartridge’s primer. The cartridge discharged and fragmented, striking Lloyd in the upper arm and lower leg.

The condition of the squirrel is not known. (http://www.gainesville.com/article/20130426/ARTICLES/130429692/1109/sports?Title=Would-be-squirrel-killer-injured-after-taping-bullet-to-BB-gun-police-say) (More at link)

tastes like possum

The last time we ate an opossum, we treated it the same way pig's feet are done up, which is to boil it first, whilst scraping anything off the surface of the boil that floats up there, then barbecuing.  It was quite tasty, as I recall.

The last squirrel I had was done up in a crock-pot, and was also quite tasty. 

The time difference between those two was several years, but I don't recall them tasting the same.  :-)

I've never had either squirrel or possum. No desire to eat them, either.

Never ate possum either.....but as a teenager, I loved them.....sold them for 50 cent to a dollar for everyone I killed.

It was actually a bit of a play on the old "taste like chicken thing" with a redneck twist.

Oh, I know.  I was just giving back a little.  :-)
