First quarter donations

Looks almost as bad as my old engine builder did when he tried to port and polish his thumb with a die grinder. Ouch, that even hurts me here.

Reached for a lever to turn part of the machine off and looked the other way and got pinched by a cam. Done it a million times. This is probably my worst machine boo boo. Funny though, my last one on a fingernail has just about grown out and now this. I have to drive home and then I’ll be on the couch on percoset or whatever the heck it is. Throbbing like crazy.

Donation thread may have gone to hell, but it keeps getting bumped. ;)

Damn it’s hard to type!

That throbbing is your body telling you “don’t do this again please”. I hope the thumping goes away quickly once you swallow the pill. Can you drink with your other hand? ;) Er, better not, could be a bad combo with the pill.

My worst engine accident was dropping a big block chevy cylinder head from tailgate height onto my big toe at a chilly 4am at the swap meet. Dad said it’s impossible to break your big toe and we sat there all day long. Impossible my ass. Right in the center radiating out I had four nice cracks. Nothing could really be done about it but it hurt like hell!

Help the forum, donate. :)

That’s another ouch. Knock on wood I have never really screwed myself up like that. Used to attempt to take half my thumb off with a hammer on a regular basis, back when I was in construction. I don’t miss it though.

Is that a bodily fluid I see in your hand photo, tps? ;)

Yeah, he sprung a leak PG.

A quick return to your cat tps. We had the same trouble with a cat many years ago He had lost all his fur down his backbone. Eventually I realised it was the cat food we were giving him . So change in diet might help.

Hope it does!

Glad the thread is back on topic!

Sorry iamaru

Thanks Shunga.

That’s what steel toe shoes are for, wear them all the time, spent 15 years as a mechanic, and never got hurt.

Good thought. I was 16 and only a hobby mechanic helping Dad out. I could go for some steel tipped gloves though. ;)

I’m in. Had a major battle with pay-pal though. I hate them. Thanks for this great site, Thunder, and all the guys and gals here. Mods rule!!

tps, sorry about you cat and your finger. ( your pussy and your finger?!?) My cat has to get shots twice a year or so to prevent her from licking her stomach and thighs raw. All the resources I’ve seen say it’s either an allergy, or a psychosis that starts the licking. Some cats get prozac for their “issues”.
