The New York Times checks in with Scotty Lago after he was forced to duck out of the 2010 Olympic Games a little early thanks to a huge overreaction to some late-night party photos. They found him all rested up and well armed.

In Seabrook, Lago’s spirits have been buoyed. In the yard of the spacious house where he grew up, on a ridge overlooking his family’s 80-acre spread, he called “pull,” aimed his shotgun and blasted another clay pigeon. Later, Lago shot pool with friends in the nearby three-bedroom house with an indoor swimming pool he bought last fall. . . “It’s really cool and I’m definitely thankful for all of it,” Lago said of his newfound fame, “but I would be just as happy to be here shooting guns with my friends.”

What a perfect way to relax.
