Attacked by a Machete
HaroldCR - AKA Fla.-Deadheader:
Last Sunday morning, I was way out back clearing a section of weeds and tall (think sugar cane tall), grass, when I got attacked by a machete. Hit the back side of my left thumb and feels like I cut the strings that are used for hitch hiking. Thumb won't raise up to that position, and, arm feels funny when I try to raise the thumb. It does work as pressure to hold things though.
Wrapped a long grass leaf around it and finished what I was working on. Went back yesterday and did some more, so I can plant a 1/8th acre of yellow dent for the chikkins. Corn is HIGH down here, IF you can find it. $14.00 /bushel, shelled.
Worse thing is, when I'm grinding steel, I keep catching the bandages on fire. :o :o :o ::)

Try duct tape LOL might not burn as easy.
Kirk Allen:
Gorilla Tape!
Hope you heal!

Its tough when you get older you can't make the gracefull moves you used to, especially when it comes to tripping. I don't know whats worse the injury or the brow beating you get at home. Take care of yourself Hal were running low on old pharts. Frank C.
