What gremlins on my back do you speak of? I've never seen any

The tire blew I must have held because the slinky was gone not because my finger tips were in my lap. Got to the side of the road in rush hour traffic. Nobody stopping to help so mom scoop me up with the tips in a cup of ice. Stood on the side of the road holding my hand out in a bloody rag. Dad was trying to change the tire. So truck stopped and we got in yelling to dad what hospital we were going to and left my dad and brother on the side of the road.
Dad finally made it to the hospital after I was in surgery. It didn’t work , ya think! They sowed the tips on but never got blood flow. Had the hand wrapped in gauze and then a plastic bag. A corner was cut off and twice a day the nurse would pour a yellow fluid in. My hand was stained the rest of that summer.
When they came in to give me shots of something thing two male orderlies would have to hold me down. I guess I would throw a full on fit about getting stuck. Still don’t like Needles.
Spent a week in Tulsa my dad and brother went on to St. Louis. Mom and I took a Grayhound. I got sick and puked in moms lap. She had to walk thru the bus holding her skirt up full of puke to the bathroom to clean up.
Mothers truly put up with a lot of crap from their kids.
When I was younger and would flip someone the bird I would use the cut off one and tell them they weren’t worth a full bird.

It was my customer and I was lead guy on the job, I started cutting down the coil without having a lift underneath the coil supporting it. The other journeyman was helping the cooks get the cooler emptied. 3 bolts holding up the back side of the coil, 3 on the front. I cut thru 2 on the back with a sawzall and thru 1/2 of the 3rd bolt. Started on one of the front bolts and the vibration snapped the rear bolt I cut halfway thru. The coil swung down and more or less took my left arm with it. I ended up tearing all my back muscles off my left shoulder blade and tore all the cartilage in the ball of the shoulder. Had 3 surgeries over the course of 2 years and was deemed legally disabled. They fixed the damage to the ball in 2 surgeries and the third cut into my back. Doc drilled a bunch of holes in my shoulder blade and sutured the muscles back on. Needless to say, doctors are not God and while my shoulder is a ton better than it was prior to the last surgery, it's still f'd up 10 years later and only getting worse, which I blame on old age.
Oh wow thats crazy.

I'm tired of these mediocre "semi flammable" refrigerants. If we're going to do it let's do it right.
Unless we change direction we are likely to end up where we are going.

I was just a dumb arse and smashed a boat into a boi at 35mph. Took the windshield in the chest and compressed my spine. To my defense I was in the middle of the shipping lane and the boi's light was not functioning. And it was the night of the lunar eclipse so zero light.... I was just testing the prop. Thought I spun it so I punched it and took it out to get it to act up then come back in. Barely made it in.

Shit happens. Easy to say now but it devastated me back when it happened.
I can't stress enough. Don't hurt yourself. It's not a lucrative business plan.
