PEORIA, Ill. (AP) - Tracy Durham remembers hearing the pop. But the gunshot wound the Illinois man discovered after a neighbor asked about his limp? That was a surprise.

The 48-year-old Durham told police he thinks he was shot by a friend during a party late Sunday at his home.

Police say Durham recalled calling the friend's girlfriend ugly. The Peoria man then heard a pop as he took a drink from a bottle of whiskey. But police say he felt no pain.

Durham told officers he went to sleep around 3 a.m. Monday and discovered the wound about four hours later.

Police questioned Durham while he was being treated at a local hospital. He declined to identify the man he suspects shot him.

I love you, whiskey.

 

[Null]

Wow. That's just wow.

 

[Denbrought]

That must've been good whisky.

A broken heart?

Broken Hearted People - Guy Clark

Now broken hearted people always seem to drink
and tryin' to drown those sorrows ain't as easy as you think
But living with a liar is a hard old way to go
Laughin' just to keep from crying ain't no way to grow old

Chorus:
So take me to a barroom driver set me on a stool
If I can't be her man I'm damned if I'll be her fool

They say that whiskey ain't the best way, but then I ain't too smart
to think I just found out she was lyin' from the start
So if this is nothing but a bad joke lookin' for a laugh
hold on to your lampshade darlin' cause I'm looking for a hat

Chorus

So get this taxi movin' cause I got no time to lose
there's no time to be choosy, any old bar will do
cause I'm lookin' to get silly and I'm lookin' to get loose
and if that don't get it done darlin', I'll come looking for you

Chorus

 

[Krisken]

I think it has less to do with whiskey and more to do with Peoria. That place is nuts.

 

[Element 117]

I'm in awe that no one else saw this at the time. "Whose blood am I slipping on?"

 

[sixpackshaker]

I prefer my method of taking shots at a party.

 

[Null]

And to think, some people get worked up if their guests don't use a coaster at a party.

 

[Calleja]

Maybe it was like a .22 and it didn't hit any blood vessels and there was just a little blood that was absorbed by his super absorbent wool pants?






I got nothing.

I got nothing.

I guess it's better not to shoot than to shoot and miss.
