"Bother!" said Pooh, as he stopped a 305gr solid.

Brian J. Noggle has a beautiful trophy from what must have been a truly unique safari.

I find myself wanting one like it in the worst possible way...

  1. Bring enough gun. You have to be able to penetrate at least 4 inches of polyester batting in order to make a humane kill.

    (What? I'm trying to be consistent.)

  3. What a perfect place to post my favorite movie scene about shooting trophies. Our hero has just "lost the girl", and is visiting the aunt who raised him to announce his plans for safari...

  4. I have been thinking about organizing safaris where one hunts plush toys. All the better if they are life sized and deftly animated by congresscritters. What rifle for Barney?

  5. Isn't Barney Extinct?

    If not, then it takes a big purple meteor...

  6. "Isn't Barney Extinct?"
    - Not extinct enough

    "If not, then it takes a big purple meteor..."

    - there are more subtle means

  7. I wonder if Build-A-Bear Workshop has a head-only option? My daughter worked there one Christmas season. I'll ask her.

  8. Mr. Noggle asks "How much would you pay...?"

    Cabelas says, "About thirty bucks."

  9. For Barney, the correct medicine is "a kick, and a punch, and a bullet to the head". Rifles are fine but not strictly necessary, as Barney succumbs quite nicely to pistol bullets.

    wv: "bashi". HA!
