Are you and avid hunter? Have you ever wondered what it takes to be able to get the kill but are afraid to get out there. Maybe you have the stealth and grace of a drunken elephant and couldn't sneak up on a corpse without startling it. Well your hunt-free days are over. The folks at Live-Shot.com have taken the remote control capabilities of the internet and mated it with a rifle to offer a rifle range and hunting experience online.

When the video games have lost their thrill you can shoot real things without getting anywhere near a gun. They offer the ability to get souvenirs for your basement wall in the form of a target from the range or even a DVD of your hunting session. Once you get the hang of cyber plinking down at you can eventually move on to real live critters. They are currently in the process of fencing in a compound to allow their system to deployed for real game hunting. Once you've got your kill they can have it sent to the taxidermist for you and everything.

This system is an offshoot of the remote controlled life we are all living to one extent or another and I can't wait until they get this system perfected. Not that I hunt, but it could be adapted to other applications. Imagine the same system set up to a small water cannon in your home. When you are at work and your pets are rejoicing in the fact that they can climb all over the furniture when you are gone without your knowledge you have the ability to wipe that smug look off their face with a jet of water. Possibly an adaptation of the same system could be used to keep door to door salesmen away from the house as well.

With a few more modifications you could get the system adapted to run the vacuum cleaner over the internet too. Tell me you'd have trouble getting most guys to vacuum the house if they figured it was like a video game! It's the marital aid of the future folks, just think about it!
