Why I'm having trouble typing

Be grateful you are not a Muslim.

I don't get it either...



Hey SIBUD, how did you like getting the shots of lidocaine in you finger tips?

The last time I had to get a finger tip sewn up the ER doc did not give me any sugar coating, he said "hold on this is going to hurt alot, are you ready?"

Oh yeah, it hurt. It is funny now (sort of...)

I believe it has something to do with the "favored" left hand.

The shots were much more painful than the injury. I called the DR a few choice names when he told me to "just relax" the finger he was shooting up!

Less worldly Roy is going to need that one explained.

Sorry SIBUD, hope it heals fast.
On the upside, I showed these to my wife as the reason why I don't do any woodworking around the house.

Among Muslims, the left hand is reserved for bodily hygiene and considered unclean. Thus, the right hand should be used for eating. Shaking hands or handing over an item with one's left hand is an insult.[2]

BTDT only it was the pad of my left thumb. I second the use of push sticks. Clumsy at first but you get used to it easier than getting used to fewer fingers.

Hope you heal fast and with no complications.

I was using a push stick with my right hand.

But you can not fix stupid and my left hand contacted the blade.

I had heard that, I didn't make the connection.
My wife would either starve, or be doing a lot of laundry in a Muslim country, as a lefty.

Don't try this at home with a table saw.

What do you recommend? Maybe a carving knife?

OK that requires a story!

Looks like a power hammer incident but I'll let you elaborate.

Ouch! Speedy recovery, Bud.
