Since we're talking about the times we've accidentally maimed ourselves and stuff I think it's my turn, so when I was a little kid I used to play in the fire a lot alright? I would collect lead and aluminum and cast things just for the fun of it. Well one day I found a brick that had an "Ohio" indentation, I thought it was the perfect mold! I heated up my lead and poured it in, instead of just sitting there and cooling down like normal it made a crack about as loud as a small firecracker and the lead went flying everywhere, there were droplets and spatters of it stuck up and down my left arm and a bunch of little holes burned through my clothes. Ma wasn't too happy haha...

I did something similar, but with pine tar. I tried heating it up with a fire under a flat rock. I guess the rock had vapor in it, and the whole thing went off like a grenade.
 

Three weeks ago, my uncle was told he had three months to live. He was riddled with Liver, pancreatic and colon cancer. He died this morning.
 

Bart... thats why ya gotta carry super glue and duct tape in the ole tool kit.

Just the sort of place for a pirate to spend a vacation. ARC would like it but he'd have to change up his rum for raki.
