Surely this crowd can create some good one-liners from this article in today's Houston paper:

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — Authorities say a Central Texas woman has accidentally shot her husband while trying to kill a skunk in their yard.

The Brazos County Sheriff's Office says the incident happened Sunday night in the College Station area as the wife fired a handgun.

Sheriff Chris Kirk says the husband was shot in the abdomen. The victim has been transported to a hospital in Houston.

Further information on the man's condition was not immediately available Monday. Names of the couple have not been released.

The sheriff's department did not immediately respond to a message Monday.

That's a real stinker of a case.

"Who says I missed the skunk?"

Must have been a mighty big skunk.......

Not that it happened in College Station, mind you

"He put on some gloves, grabbed the skunk and held it like so. Said, 'We need to shoot this thing before it gets rabies.' So I did. Then I finished getting ready for class."

"I'm awful sorry about it, but I was using my sense of smell to aim. I've told Pa he should take a bath......"

Backyard noodling foray goes awry ... details at 10.

What, no 5-string comments? Slackers!


"I simply shot that infernal banjo. His belly happened to stop the bullet."

Something doesn't smell right...

Witnesses say that they overheard the following conversation:
Wife: "What do you mean you didnt know there was a skunk in the yard, couldnt you smell it"
Husband; "I smelled something but I just thought you were cooking dinner"
Followed by the Sound of a Gunshot.
