Cheney Shoots Someone??????

Vice Pres. Dick Cheney has apparently shot a friend while quail hunting on a private ranch in Texas. If memory serves me correctly, this would be the first time a sitting Vice-President has shot someone since Aaron Burr shot Alexander Hamilton. The friend is recovering from pellet wounds to the face, neck and chest.
Word is that Cheney shot his friend because he stole his father's watch when the friend framed him for murder over 40 years ago - wait , that was Eddie Murphy in "Life"! Well, at least the excuse was the same - the friend walked in front of Cheney as he was firing.
Perhaps , the most ironic ( and comedic) part is that the friend was immediately tended to because Cheney always has a medical staff on call nearby. That makes me worry a little about just how healthy is Dick Cheney? This could have turned out a lot more tragic, but luckily it didn't.

A quick addition to this. After 36 hours of this mess, I have judged that the funniest thing I heave heard about this was Sean Hannity's playing of Aerosmith's " Janie's Got a Gun", but changing it to "Cheney's Got a Gun". Priceless!!
