Are surgical staples expensive?
Because I think I could of used a few more, stingy bastards.
Didn't open the garage door up all the way, then bent over to pick some things up. Well that took about 2 seconds which is about twice as long as I can hold a thought. Raised up with some quickness only to slam in the bottom of the door with my head catching the handle. Almost lost it, but didn't. Proceeded into the garage to drop of parts and walk out. Did the reach up and check to see if it was bleeding bit, only to feel a big hole and have blood poring down my face and arm. Dropped everything and used both hands to hold it semi closed while a fetched the wife to help out, kids (3 and 5yrs old) come around the corner and instantly flip out. yea
1 hour drive to hospital, 3 hours in the ER, wife even works at the hospital, and they only hit me up with 4 staples and no antibiotics or pain meds. ---- I should of just taped the bitch closed and called it done.
I did hit it again today on the grab handle in our truck, taught the kiddos a few new words with that one.

Expanding a child's vocabulary is the greatest goft a parent could give to his child.
That doesnt look so bad. I recently went to the dentist and asked to have my elbow opened to remove a piece of glass that was lodged inside it
