RE: Great Modelling Mishaps ( was Stripping? ) Now {OT}

Thought I would share the great idea I had when I was about 10 
playing darts I decided that walking to the dart board was 
unnecessary so I tied some string to the darts to pull them 
back without walking to the dart board, unfortunately the force 
needed to pull the dart out of the board was enough to get the 
dart to fly back and stick in my knee, the moral of this tale wear
knee pads :)

	Closest I came to anything like that was when I put
a pitchfork through my shoe. I stood there stunned for a moment,
then wiggled my toes and realized the tines went _between the toes_.

	In miniatures, the worst I've done is a deep gash on
on my thumb from the ol' exacto. Cleaned it up, super-glued
it shut, and went on with the work.
