Nice try WC but I'm always leery scrolling through your images. I know sure as shit there's gonna be some gross ass hand or foot impaled on something or ripped off or open so I've instructed my brain to instantly cut my eyeballs away from it.
The clothes were cut away from the two tines on the right. You can see the cuts in the cloth if you look carefully. The second tine from the left still has a small ring of cloth around it.
No 7 was me at the beach a few years ago -in the dark. Took me an hour of digging and laying driftwood to get onto firm sand. Was a white 1998 Camry as well. Ah, the memories of sweat and the smell of a hot clutch.
At least #2 landed on soft grass. Probably no injury.
#6 happened to me. I bought what looked like well constructed shoes from Walmart. After about a year, the sole came right off. Instead of wasting the time to epoxy it, I bought a pair of good shoes.
My grandmother told me about the girl in high school with her, who lived on a farm. She was playing in the upper hay mow, and jumped down onto the lower part. She landed onto a hay fork, stuck into the hay, with it's handle sticking up, straddling it. She was killed instantly, of course. She told me this when I was in my early teens, and it really stuck in my mind, that is for certain. To die in such a way, and at such an age, was just unimaginable to me. Of course, back then, in what must have been the 1930's or so, most families lived on some type of farm, or at least raised their own food, along with a couple of pigs, and maybe a cow, or a few goats and chickens or rabbits. So people usually had at least food to eat, even if they didn't have much cash money. It was only through FDR getting us involved with WWII that the factories started to run at full strength, and often women took jobs there, since the fathers were joining up to go to join the service, to fight the war. And of course, after the war, suddenly the factories slowed down from making war materials, and had to find a different product. That the soldiers coming home, and wanting to start families, the need for building materials was part of the new products that businesses were making. In fact, several of them were actually making kit homes, which included all of the needed materials to make a home, from a cape cod style, to a one floor ranch style home. Sears is one company that most people know, but a number of others did the same thing. You see, if the government just stays out of the way, the people will figure out how to fix nearly every problem that our country is experiencing. It is in when the government decides that they are the only ones who can fix the problem, that the problem ensues.
#1: At least it takes his mind off his burning, bleeding hemorrhoids.
ReplyDeleteWhy are no bits of clothing pierced?
ReplyDeleteNot what he was expecting when his date asked "Can I fork you?"

ReplyDelete1 - not going to be wiping himself for a while either.
I don't hang around horses (or horse women) anymore but when I did, I knew enough to only muck an EMPTY stall.
ReplyDeleteWomen with horses are only looking for stable hands.
DeleteExactly!
