Got me to thinking about how come such utterly ridiculous crap
never happened to me. The only real answer I can up with is: dumb
luck.

I've had a lot of hook accidents including picking a monster with more
treble hooks on it that you could imagine out of the back of my head
with a mirror. (That client never went with me again, I'll tell you
what.)

I've got to believe that the double thumb hook up is a tall tale - as
in urban legend or something.

I second Doug's scalpel trick, but mostly when I seriously hook
myself, as I do at least two/three times a year, I just cut one end or
the other off and pull it through. That's where a handy little can of
numbing spray can help a lot. :)

Ice works well also. But, burying your head in same may not be too
comfortable!

Fix your computer clock, John. Ask your toaster to explain how.


My clock's right! I'll check the time on this message.
