  • What are the odds?

    Have you ever had a rock hit you in the face while trimming with the string trimmer or edging. You know, it usually stings a little, sometimes you see later that it drew a little blood. I've had seed and stems imbed in my skin before and seeds like a fox tail for example shoot as far up my nose as it could and ricochet into the deep recesses of the sinus cavity. Then of course you have to remove it before it germinates, which takes a couple grunts, snorts and two or three blasts of breath at about 120 psi. We'll today I had some debris hit my right between the lips just to the right of my nose. First thought was...ROCK! There goes a tooth. It didn't hit my tooth thankfully, because it was lighter than a rock......it was a cigarette butt, and it landed in my lips just like I were smoking it. What are the odds?

            No, and instinct made me spit it out as fast as it came up. I didn't even see it coming at me. When something comes at your windshield, you usually notice it just before impact. This happened too fast. I think I tightened my smile a bit so I may have noticed something subconsciously. I almost shut of fthe trimmer so I could laugh.....I didn't want something else to hit me while I was laughing with a mouthull of teeth exposed. Then I thought of the joke "How can you tell a happy biker? .... the one with all the bugs smashed in his teeth." I knew if I kept trimming and laughed as hard as I wanted my teeth would look like the cuff of my pants.

              Hardboiled they say they work really good. Smoking is bad for your help. You really should give it up. Dude that is the greatest story in the world.

                Where are the photographers when you need one?!!! That would have made a great picture! Can you see the surprised look on that face? Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
