The engine raped my thumb *2 pics*
 
To make a long story short, Ryan and I were installing my new engine into seafoam and had the driver and passenger side mounts bolted up. We were positioning the engine with the hoist to get the rear tranny mount lined up. I was under the car and all of the sudden the whole engine shifted and smashed my thumb. It pulled my whole nail right out, split the end of my thumb open, and crushed my bone a little bit. At least I got some painkillers out of the deal.

I should be able to finish with one hand, We got the motor in and most of the hard stuff done. I just have to put the axles back in and bolt everything up and install the turbo kit.

Even if you nail grows back, it could take 20+years to be even near right!

Dude, that's ------- nasty.

I thought I got it bad three weeks ago when playing softball I decided to catch the ball with my other hand already in the mitt by accident because I wanted to get the ball out asap but obviously I jumped the gun. The ball came in at about 75mph and crushed my right ring finger against the heel of my glove. 5 minutes later it overtook my thumb as the biggest finger on my hand. I never lost the nail thank god, but the finger is still numb to this day and it's bigger than all my fingers except my thumb.
:-\

Good luck mang.

Whoa. That looks like it hurts.

More importantly, why haven't you posted any pics of you getting freaky with girls lately?? Is the thumb scaring them off?

He keeps taking that thumb and sticking it through his zipper. Yeah probably scaring the ladies a tad.

I have a girlfriend now, for the first time in a few years. So I won't be posting lots of naked chicks up. But I still will occasionally, don't you guys worry ;)
