45 years later, at a sports bar.......

45 years later, at a sports bar.......
Get this, so I am sitting at a bar watching the Skins Cardinals game. Of course talking to other fans, lady asks me where I live, she said, "Oh I went to yadda yadda high school. I asked her if she knew my father who taught there, she did, she had him as a teacher. Mind you I would have been 6 years old at the time so never met the lady. She remembered him partly because my dad was missing a couple fingers. He lied to her as to how, like he lied to me. He did serve in the Marines but never saw combat. He told everyone they got blown off in the Korean war, but no. In reality he was sub-ing for shop class and wasn't paying attention to the band saw.

Almost never a good idea.

I was cutting plywood at the base hobby shop (I was the manager) and just as the blade cut through the guy on the other end pulled really hard. Four of my fingers were cut to the bone. Didn't lose them, but I can make Frankenstein jokes now.

My wood shop teacher used to lie to everyone about his injuries too. Ol’ Laq used to say he’d lost parts of his fingers and one of his eyes to a shop accident, in reality he’d been in a car accident. We were pretty damn careful with the tools though so points to him.

You're slipping.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
