But then again, anyone who takes medical advise from the wreck needs to
see a doctor anyway!

You crack me up, Dave.....too funny.

I ran my hand once along a freshly sanded 8-foot strip of oak and
proceeded to accordion a sliver into my index-finger bone. Open finger
surgery didn't even get all of the oak out. That forced me to cancel
several gigs as I couldn't even hang onto a pick, much less play my
guitar. Quite a few people were very appreciative of that misfortune.

Many practice one-ups-man-ship here so here's mine Rob -
I was sanding a bamboo flyrod when I was younger - not knowing it had a
small crack.
As I slid my hand down sharply, the sandpaper opened up the crack and a 8"
sliver pierced my lower palm and exited out of the side on my index finger!

As I was home alone I had to cut the sliver from the pole and extract the
sliver by myself! Man did that hurt~ The scar is still in my palm today 40
years later.
