    You can't get much sadder than that. I won't even comment on the right or wrong. Just sad as can be.

    I can see it now ...

    Mr. Brilliance looks at the cable for the satellite dish, looks at the wall, and says 'Dang, that's just the size of a 9 mm.' ... Mr. Brilliance stands there a few minutes trying to remember where his drill and drill bits were and 'What to heck is is about 9 mm?', ... then it dawns on him ... 'Hot dang, I KNOW just what will work for that!', ... he goes and gets his gun and ... as they say, the rest is history.

    I do believe the wrong person died in that accident, that Mr. Brilliance should have been using that gun Billy shows every now and then.

    Makes you wonder if didn't have her standing on the other side of the wall to let him know if the drill bit was coming through the drywall.

    I was going to add that Rick. I am sure they will be examining that bullet for wall material.

    Who freeking does something like that. And they gave him a gun permit.

    NO, you can't. You'll be watching it 24/7 and then I'll never have time to watch HGTV. You know how much I love that "Trading Spaces".

    If the newsreader is getting the story straight (there has to be a first time) it sounds like the moron was inside, shooting out.

    One fine neighbor!

    This is a fine example supporting the need for IQ testing prior to weapon purchase. Anything less than 110 and you just get a replica.

    Wayne,

    I actually seen a few episodes just to see that what its all about. I should have got CEU hours for watching the show as it tells you where these homeowners come up with the things they do to a home.

    For example, as I found a few years ago of drilling out a hardwood floor and placing buttons in the openings and sealing them in.

    On an episode of Trading Spaces, the "designer" convinced the people to paint their neighbor's brick fireplace and surround purple. PURPLE!!!!!!

    If that was my house, I might have ended up in handcuffs. I got so tired of watching those makeover shows and seeing them make gummy bear lamshades and popsicle stick placemats.
