How to draw blood from a digit.

[Techno]

Number 54 in a never ending series.

Take a corn on the cob skewer...



and a pack of fresh microwaveable vegetables.

Stab the pack quickly, vigorously, and carelessly......keeping your thumb well within range of the skewer.

Et voila.....Blood on the work surface of the kitchen....and a sore thumb ! (P*llock.) 

Cheers - A Twerp.

Finish the Mexicans first!

Why isn't your thumb now completely made of scar tissue?

[toxicpixie]

Good grief, and you make your living doing things with with fine manual dexterity?!

I hope your digits are insured like Kylie's bum!

I always thought the trick was to learn from previous mistakes and close encounters with sharp objects?

That holds true as a GENERAL principle, but Techno seems to start from scratch (or deep puncture wound) with each new variant of sharp and/or pointy.

Hope your okay mate.

I'm glad the Health and Safety at Work Act doesn't apply to you as you would be barred from using any sharp insturments given the number of accidents you have . Time for a career change to keep you safe?

Don't suggest that! There's so much yet undone - chariot armies, Byzantines, LOA Grenadiers eating cabbage, Korean War infantry, LOA Dragoons being impressed by card tricks, modern infantry, Han Chinese, Sung Chinese, Tang Chinese, LOA Gunners with a slight uncomfortable feeling, Napoleonic Spanish, LOA Generals with a premonition that that nun possibly wasn't as pure as he thought, super heroes, gangsters, LOA casualties requiring only a plaster and an injunction to "be a brave lad", Boxer rebellion Chinese, LOA Engineers reading Machiavelli, LOA blacksmiths forging a chastity belt, LOA infantry bickering about whose turn it is to collect firewood, absolute modern infantry, Napoleonic Prussians and of course, LOA Laser Gunners wishing they'd never stepped into that blue box.

And that's just on my list.

From this we can deduce the following

1 Don't eat vegetables
2 Don't use microwaves
3 Keep all children (ie those with a mental age of less than 16 and 90% of the forum) away from sharp objects

And don't re-enact scenes from Aliens if you're Techno.

All I can say is "What a pity, never mind"

PS - least I only stab myself with sharp knives.

Fine, Will....It stopped bleeding last night.

One thing that makes me cross..... Is when I manage to cut myself during the day.....The damn cut just oozes for ages, and the corks get all slippery when I'm trying to hold them, while I'm working on a figure !

Amateur !
