It took 9 shots and 3 hours (that had to be pleasant for the animal), but the end result is a sense of pride for an 11-year-old and a truckload of pork. Young Jamison Stone killed a 9-foot, 1051 pound wild hog in Alabama.

"It feels really good," Jamison said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "It's a good accomplishment. I probably won't ever kill anything else that big."

You sure, junior? You might wake up tomorrow and decide to start hunting ... I don't know, Cadillacs or national monuments.

It tops the previous gigantic hog record of 8 feet and 800 pounds (of course, these numbers are disputed) for a hog killed in Georgia. Eventually, one of the massive beasts is going to get proactive and bag a record 11-year-old.

For one thing, if you can hunt wild hogs with a couple of dogs and a 12-inch bowie knife, the way Kevin Kolb and his friends have, maybe getting booed or being lambasted on talk radio won't seem like such a big deal. "It's not just [about] killing an animal," says Kolb. "A lot of times you've got to work before you reap your reward. Our dogs go and find 'em first, and then we stab the pigs. It's a little bit dangerous, but as long as you know what you're doing, you'll be all right."

OK! We eagerly await commentary from Rush Limbaugh.
