Wait!

Is the ladies name Evette Mimeaux? (sp?).

If so the story is easily believable.

(This is an ancient reference to Andy Williams' wife only ancient relics like me would have a chance of relating to).

Actually a 22 loaded with shorts and partly blocked by a pillow might leave an emminently survivable wound.

I have seen several stories about guys shooting themselves in the head with power nailers and surviving it. Nothing like a 16 p in the cranium for a headache!
