Ouch!View Messageslessons learned “Dont ever stand in front of a bungee cord while tightening it down. Especially when your face is about eye level. You may end up with the bent hook ripping an nice gash between your eyes and a quick trip to get some stitches. As if my face could be made less attractive.....” 5:57:53 PM 4/09/07 “ouch for sure --- Safety glasses might not be a bad idea.” 6:11:15 PM 4/09/07 “what are they?” 6:14:24 PM 4/09/07 “[Grin] I'm just glad it hit between your eyes.” 6:18:57 PM 4/09/07 “Not good. Not good. Hey Birch, one of my past supervisors sent me a picture via e-mail of Michigan during spring break. There are two guys on an ice float. They're sitting in lawn chairs and fishing on a sunny day. One of the guys looks kinda like you from a distance. LOL But you're much more muscular. :o)” 6:23:13 PM 4/09/07 “LOL tilt! Hey sunny, long time no see!! I hope the kids and you are well.” 6:37:52 PM 4/09/07 “my face is always eye level, more or less” 6:50:16 PM 4/09/07 “That must have hurt. How many stitches did you have to have?” 6:57:32 PM 4/09/07 “actually nigal it really didnt hurt. It scared the crap outta me but felt more like heavy pressue. 8 stitches all told I think, its kind of a jumbled mess. I asked the doc how many, she replied "enough to keep it closed". BTW call me in the am if you can.” 6:59:29 PM 4/09/07 “Will do! I'm off tomorrow but I'll be up early. You should hope for a cool scar and do a sipper tat on it right between your eyes. :P” 7:03:06 PM 4/09/07 “Sometimes a properly placed scar can improve ones appearance. Arrgghh, Matey.” 7:15:46 PM 4/09/07 “i think arnica, a homeopathic remedy, should take away the pain birch. glad to hear you still have both eyes!” 7:23:08 PM 4/09/07 “SOrry about the injury. Major magnet injury. Oh, i GOT THAT bungie jumping : )” 8:42:10 PM 4/09/07 “I told him he should tell the guys at work he got into a knife fight with a Mexican or fell off a mechanical bull or something. He told the truth though. Boring! ;)” 7:45:00 AM 4/10/07 “Mederma does wonders for scars, Birch. Glad you're okay. What does the munchkin think of the stitches?” 7:47:20 AM 4/10/07 “He should've had fun with stories about it for sure. I'm on the local planning and zoning board. One night I walk into our pre-meeting meeting and the local building inspector is all bandaged up on his face. He looked like he'd been in a car wreck. He had stitches, bruises, and the like. My smart mouth couldn't resist so I commented, "Dang Paul, I'd hate to see the other guy." He replied, "It wasn't a him, it was a her." The room got quiet and I shut up. I found out about a week later that his wife had found out he'd been cheating on her.” 7:50:53 AM 4/10/07 “Treebait her eyes got as big as saucers. I was glad she was swimming with a friend when it happened.” 7:51:17 AM 4/10/07 “LOL Birch, 6 months or so ago one of my dispatchers was fishing....his brother went to cast and something caught the treble hook....YEP it was the other brother....” 7:57:47 AM 4/10/07 “What good is a scar if you wont make up stories about it? ;)” 8:08:23 AM 4/10/07 “http://www.myfoxcleveland.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail;jsessionid=1E1286B5926BA2D2E7DF6678E8E8B65A?contentId=4980198&version=5&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=1.1.1&sflg=1 scroll down the page and it shows it happening last edited: 11/21/07 12:31:16 PM” 12:30:33 PM 11/21/07 “I don't need to see that! *shudder*” 12:32:23 PM 11/21/07 “That is terrible!!!” 12:35:04 PM 11/21/07 “HA! That will teach you to never vote for a democrat” 2:52:20 PM 11/21/07 “But does it blend?” 4:18:31 PM 11/21/07 “they say her leg is healing, but will it ever be the same? i don't think anyone thinks clearly when they are that involved in a sport they love. when i hiked out all those miles with my knee locked up and in severe pain, i would rather have crawled out on my hands and knees through cactus than to have used my cell phone, which was working the whole time btw, to have called someone to carry me out of there. that was my actual thought when i was there. my knee was hugely swollen and red and hot by the time i got home. that's just as stupid as what she did.” 4:27:07 PM 11/22/07 “WOW...NOTE to files guys..... Angry Thai Women Lead the World in #&%!$ Slashings watch! breitbart.tv — Thai surgeons are becoming expert at putting members back on. "Sometimes they chop into pieces. In those cases we cannot put it back." OWIEE” 6:45:13 AM 12/11/07
