BIG shotgun

Today, I found a video about a guy shooting a 13 foot long shotgun. I have posted it here. It is called the punt gun & it is loaded with 2000 grains of black powder, & the guy who shoots it says in a different clip that he uses 70 grains to load his .50 cal. rifle.

I like this video because it shows what can be done when someone puts their mind to doing something. There are more video clips that you can find on YouTube.

Birthday

Hi,

On November 5th I turned 14, and I am here to tell you what I got for presents. :) Cora gave me a book called, "The Art of Woodburning"; a talking book called, "Nory Ryan's Song"; & a movie called, "Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo." The movie was very funny!

Andrew gave me 1 gift (a very nice one though), and that was a Saitek AV8R flying joystick :) I use it when I fly on Flight Simulator for those of you who don't know what a joystick is used for.
Dad & Mom gave me the new shotgun; a pair of new gloves; the expansion pack for flight simulator; & Andrew & I went on a hunt to find 12 pairs of socks! Mom had hid them in places that are warm or could provide heat.

Well, I had better get going.
