I plead the fifth. All those scars are cool combat injuries. Just ask that cute chick at the bar.

Hey, two are actually war related. And the purple heart is on my list of medals to avoid earning. I'm allergic to lead and shrapnel. Doc said so.

We are no longer allowed to play construction together.





DISCLAIMER:There was no alcohol involved in the above. It was 97* and 60% humidity, just to hot to drink and work in the sun.

I'm sorry, but thats just funny. Painfull, but funny.



While attempting to change the ball joints on the passenger side, I got pissed off because the shackle wouldnt come loose even though both ball joint nuts were off. I cut the upper one off with my oxy acetylene torch and knocked the bolt out through the top of the axle and threw it off to the side. (Remember, this piece is still a few hundred degrees.) A few minutes later, I go to move and throw all my weight on my right hand, which happened to land right on top of the hot bolt. I ran like hell over to the hose to try and cool it off while my girlfriend sits there laughing non stop.

I've also had the tip of my pinky (1/8th inch) cut off courtesy of my brother and a hedge trimmer, ripped a chunk out of my middle finger after catching it between a drive chain and sprocket on our modded lawn mower/go kart, and sliced my thigh open with a utility knife (5 stitches on that) while cutting sections of rope.

Robin..a rat?

Why was there a rat running around on the underside of your truck?

I knocked one of my teeth out with a 5 lb hammer trying to mount a clincher tire on a 1914 Studebaker. I put the tooth in my pocket and headed for the dentist's office. When I got there, the receptionist asked "may I help you?" I put the tooth on the counter, pointed to it and said "Yes, will this entitle me to to a discount on my cleanings from now on?" She looked at me without so much as any kind of smile and just said "No!"
