OWCH!

Plugs.
Sunshine number 21 was loaded, and Hex basically did a portrait of Dr. Murk with this one. Hex also got me another 20 or so cartoons.

Also, Friday Night RPG Cartoons number 1.9 is also loaded.

My finger.
At the request of several fans, including one who claims to be a doctor, here is a pretty good picture of the gash on my index finger.

Now, it hurts much less, than it did, and I can somewhat type today. What you don't see is the gash continues around the finger (right side) to the finger nail. I sealed up pretty nicely if I do say so myslef. I also stabbed the middle finger next to it, but that ones looking good today and no where near as devestating. I have full feeling in the finger tip (as I can attest while I type), which is a bonus. It probably needed several stitches, but I wasn't about to wait around the St. Luke's emergency room for 4 - 6 hours for 4 - 6 stiches.

So, what happened? I was cleaning our very expensive razor sharp Cuisinart knives. Those of you that own Cuisinart know how strong and sharp they are. I was scrubbing some crud off a blade (they are not dishwasher compatible) and my fingers got in the way . . . whoops. I am lucky it was only a steak knife and not the the Santoku Knife (yeah that would have been a bit of a mess. I was also pretty lucky I did not do this with my Multi-Tool which has a knife designed to cut bone. Kudos to Cuisinart by the way for making such high quality knives.

So, that leave us with perhaps a smaller blog for the next few days, as typing is not nessecarily painful, it just takes three times as long to type this stuff.

As for a Beatles update, we will see tomorrow. I am starting Sgt. Pepper with the next update, and want to do it right.

The Mood of Red Sox Nation.
Add Lester to this pitching staff, and they are going to be frightening. Mood: Happy.

Rain Rain.
Go away. No Sox game today, and they have messed around with the schedule for the Boston Marathon tomorrow.

Hey, doofuses.
They don't call 'em Sea Lions for nuthin'.

A little shout out.
To Mr. Jackie Robertson.

RIP Do Ho.
RIP my Big Kahuna.

I know from my own experience that when ya cut yer fingr so bad thatcha atchually got a piece o meat hangin off, it might seem a little silly at first just to patch it & pressure it sos to avoid goin to th hospital (evn tho thats what all o us REAL men do!), but I can also attest to the fact that in my own case, th only notable remnant o my mishap (probly 5 or 6 years ago) is a slightly "irregular" fingrprint.

P.S. I found a bloody glove. Is it yours?

If the glove don't fit you must aquit.

Was the hospital named in the late 1970s in honor of a man who overthrew the Empire?

No, it was built in like 1884.

Joey Polanski said...

Well, 1884 was a long time ago; but was it in a galaxy far, far away?

wow I love sharp knives, they can be very effective.

Toyi,
I think Lorena Bobbit said that same thing.

The Merciless,
Cuisinart are freaking sharp. I got a set for my wedding from husband's aunt. I've cut myself so much, that I believe husband's aunt is really out to get me. Or I might just be really paranoid.

MrDeity.com has several other really funny clips.

Toyi said...

I know eh eh I just wanted to bug him with that

Yeah, I am going to post all the Mr. Deity stuff this week.
