I almost threw up my breakfast.

Eh, I got impaled by a tree while snowboarding two years ago. To quote Lita Ford, "It ain't no big thing."

Nope, just missed my right kidney, but the principle is the same.

Yeah, but we have that "taxicab to pedestrian" ratio to worry about. We're not totally out of the woods.

Lis, you're bark-ing up the wrong tree. Why can't you just leaf it alone?

...ugh, try the veal. I'll be here all week.

There was a story years ago in my hometown of Jersey City about a kid who was walking along the top of a wrought iron fence with big, pointy spikes on top of it. he fell, & got impaled on one of the spikes thru his chin. Amazingly, it went out his mouth & not up into his brain, & it took rescue workers several hours to cut the fence apart to get him to the hospital (because remember, they aren't supposed to remove something impaling a patient; he had to ride to the hospital with a huge section of wrought iron fence sitting on his chest, & the fucking spike still in there). Some ghoul of a photographer took a picture of him before he was taken from the scene, and the expression of shocked horror on his cross eyed face as he stared at the spike protruding from his mouth is sort of comical in a demented kind of way.

Heh, so he is the ghoul for taking the photo... but you're the one who looked at it and found the expresion of "shocked horror" in the kids eyes comical. Which one was the ghoul again?

Geez, I remember that story AND the picture, Ig! Nasty business, that - I felt sorry for that kid, but it was tempered with the fact that the kid was walking on the fence in the first place when he shouldn't have.

I remember that story, Iggy - never saw the picture, though. And no, that's not a hint!

Not the story Iggy was talking about, but this construction worked survived a 3ft long metal screw that speared his throat. Non-bloody, but still disturbing photo in link.

For fuck's sake, a little warning man!

Edit: Karma's a bitch. I just clicked on a video posted on my friend's Facebook page and its of a guy jumping off a cliff and splitting his face in half on the walk way below. I can't post the link, but feel free to Google it and be prepared to witness one of the most disgusting things ever.

Good choice. At least you had the option. My friend did not give any indication of what I was about to see. I can't go to sleep now. Much watch something happy.
