Damn! :shock:
When I was maybe 10 or so I got a massive splinter in one of my fingers from playing with a stick. It was all the way against the bone :shock: Needless to say it had to be removed surgically.

looks like fun BILLY... just drink some crown you'll be fine :D



I was mowing about two years ago.. and bumped into my wooden planting table .. it hurt a little but no big deal.. then after a week or so I had a nice red knot on my outer thigh area.. went to the doctor cause it was tender a bit.. they thought it may had been a bite or something but wasn't infected so couldn't tell me
what I should do.. then after living with it and forgetting about it for 5 months or so... one day I was messing with the area... and WHAT... out pops an inch long piece of wood.. it went straight in.. couldn't
see it to tell it before.. crazy ... it just slid right out..

My lawn mowing story is really the only thing I can think of that could of happened???? or it could of been a garden gnome attacking me in the middle of the night??? both scenarios are very plausible.. :D

I had a similar incident with wire wheel wire, my knee had bothered me for some time and probably at least six months after I had been done with using wire wheels I pulled a long piece of wire from my knee. Never even looked like here was annoying there.
