nubain1 0 #1 August 15, 2003 I was out in the workshop a little while ago playing with power tools and damned if I did'nt cut the tip of one of my fingers off.actually shreeded it si I cant even get stitches for it.And I can't self medicate myself right now because I have to go to work tonight And I don't think the jail would appreciate me being on the clock drunk.damn,damn damn. I did check though and can still go jump this weekend.I can still hold onto the toggle with out using that one finger and still have a firm grip and not have to worry about dropping it.Funny how that the next thing I checked after seeing if I needed stitches or not.

See....my Dad was an airline pilot for 42 years. Any pilot that old is pretty hard to excite. I was pretty young and my Mom had taken me fishing one evening. My dad walks about 1/2 a mile down to the lake and yells at my Mom from the shore. He says "Hey....I have to go to the hospital. I'll be back in a couple hours." and starts to walk away. Of course.....my Mom knows something is up and gets him to fess up. He was standing there....with a dirty rag holding 3 of his "all but a bit of skin" severed fingers. Seems he had a bit of a circular saw mishap. He just walks up and calmly mentions it like "I'm going out for some milk." My Dad....what a character.
