crapflinger2000 1 #1 May 12, 2003 I have a new addition to my list of "stupid things I have done": So I start this new job. A couple of us and a manager are standing around being shown something, and something falls off a desk. I reach down to pick it up (being the helpful type), and neatly bash my forehead into the attachment end of a bit of cube material (the type that would have a couple of metal tabs sticking out) in front of everyone. Two nice bleeding scrapes on my noggin. Couldn't have looked more stupid if I tried. At least the audience was relatively small.... __________________________________________________ What would Vic Mackey do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bvsdjumper 0 #7 May 12, 2003 You're not the only dork-ass. At a Christmas Party a few years back I was just standing there by myself. It was the very begining of the evening and I just about finished with my first beer. There was just one swallow left. I don't remember what I was thinking about but I was holding the cup very loosely. Then, it just slipped out of my hand. I looked down at the mess and thought to myself "I hope nobody saw that." I looked up and none other than the president and cheif executive officer of our corporation was facing directly at me and staring right at me. I don't remember exactly what I did next, but I think I just turned to find someone to clean it up. All I kept thinking was that he must have thought I was an idiot either for not knowing how to hold a cup or for being so drunk so early in evening. --ArtSky-div'ing (ski'div'ing) n. A modern sport that involves parties, bragging, sexual excesses, the imbibing of large quantities of beer, and, on rare occasions, parachuting from aircraft.

DTOXX 0 #8 May 12, 2003 I recall being so drunk once that in an attempt to open the refrigerator I "let go" of the drink in my hand to reach for the handle. I remember thinking that I expected the glass to stay where it was, in midair. Odd how we remember somethings... ------- D.T. Holder SIMstudy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crapflinger2000 1 #14 May 12, 2003 Not sure why I am disclosing this but what the hell. Another event on my list is also involves injury to my big noggin. Once I was opening a door. Most people are smart enough by the time they are 22 that they instinctively move key body parts, like their head, out of the way of objects they are moving. Not me. I opened the door, again neatly bashing my eyebrow. Lotta blood. The incredulous looks of the people in the store I was trying to get into is something I will carry with me forever. Seriously, it is shit like this that makes me wonder how I made it this far in the sport. I think one day I will do something equally dumb in the air, like just fire my reserve over the tail of the king air for no apparent reason. Hide if you see me coming to your DZ. __________________________________________________ What would Vic Mackey do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
