  1. Funny Stories
    A man went shooting with an old fashioned gun. He was filling the gun with a ramrod. A wild duck flew out of a river. He got so excited that he fired the ramrod at it. The duck fell into the river and the ramrod stuck in a salmon. When he fired the shot the gun "kicked" his shoulder and he sat on a furze bush. There was a hare under the bush and he killed it. So with one shot he killed a hare, a wild duck and a salmon.
