Journal reported Wednesday.

Ruh Roh.

My half grown puppy absconded with a 5pack of 12 gauge shells that were out just before a trip. Fortunately she hadn't started chewing on them individually before they were recovered.

I could picture the kids in their tree fort, lobbing stun grenades on unsuspecting squirrels digging up the backyard.

I bet they don't have to worry about any muslim terrorists gaining access to their fort.
