Ow... injured...

Post by JBC »

I just accidently shot myself in the kneecap with a large, powerful staple gun and the staple went under the bone...

That's going to be sore in the morning...

Well - like i said it was a staple gun so there's not much to look at but it is the internal damage here that counts...

I hope this shit isn't damaged badly...

Eek! :shock: Va va... VAMPIRES!

Wait... no. It happened during the day and the windows where open. I also ate garlic sauce with my pasta earlier today...

If it is a vampire staple gun though i will surely set it up with it's own VampireFreaks account... it can tell everyone about how tragic life is and we can all read it's grating poetry.

"Oh the moonlight doth gleem off these brazen staples of mine,
such beautiful agony they cause..."

Ow! My leg! That's it... i'm going to blow the building up...

All I wanna know is how's it going with that firearm purchase you were talking about awhile back? You'll do well with one of those.

Also, how about a pic of the staple gun?

The staple guns at my work... i quit the gas station and now i build furniture...

I never bought the gun. Instead i quit smoking and started working out like i used to - and now i work in an environment where i don't have to walk around outside and do physical labor so...

I feel alot better.

And to be honest i still smoke natural tobacco once or twice a day in rollies...

How the hell did you staple your knee!?? :lol: Sorry, just HAD to ask.

Also, what are the real differences between smoking cigs and "natural" types.
Yea, I know Philip Morris adds some in some other shit, so whats the real deal?
I'm smoking a "Golden Beach"(lights) right now as I type. Its a cheap brand, but I think I prefer them over Marlboro Lights.

Oh, BTW...glad your happier with your new job!

I even have a new job! I'm a state employee at the local college. Texas A&M University.
I'm the sole "caretaker" of a two story business building. The work is easy, and it pays the bills...that is, untill Vodkatron makes it big!!!

Buy our CD's people...I rather play with my guitar, than push mops and brooms all day!!! :lol:

Well this old indian on the reservation my gas station was on suggested it to me... he told me that most of the addiction comes from additives 'the goverment' :roll: puts in cigarettes. But his point still came across so i tried it. A week later i smoked a Marlboro and it tasted not like a cigarette - but like pure exhaust. I almost couldn't smoke it.

I actually let a few other smokers try the rollies and they also said they tasted cleaner...

Thing is though - i have no 'craving' for cigarettes anymore. Since i started smoking those i only smoke 2 or 3 a day as opposed to 20 regular cigarettes. Those are routine as well - one after breakfast/before work, one after lunch/before i clock back in, one before i go to bed/ brush my teeth.

And i stapled my leg because i was cramped between these two huge benches i had been working on and was trying to move the gun out of the way - but the trigger caught on a piece of the bench to my right side right as the barrel was dragging over my kneecap. I was pulling it over me without looking by the air compressor hose...

I've never had to pull something out of me like that before. It actually didn't hurt at first until after about an hour later it started to get sore...

Y'know...a Hippy type friend of mine told me the very same thing regarding smokes! We're about the same age, so I guess in some ways I'm slightly a "hippy" as well. Nah...we aren't THAT old...just born into the era.

You like to take pictures of yourself, as I've noticed...are you sure that you didn't do this on purpose just to show us some "leg"!? :lol: 8)

Nah seriously...I don't mind the pics, or getting to know my shmupper friends better.

Hell, I guess in a slight way, I may even come across as a tad "goth".
Its not intentional as with some, but I'am light complected with very dark brown hair(now shorter, but still below my collar). When its slicked back in a pont tail, it looks black. I also prefer darker clothing, so there you go.

I have a black double breasted suit that I sometimes wear with a plain black T-shirt...looks a little "Chicago Vampire" for sure!
PLus, I rock!!!

Then again, if the skulls on my car aren't cool enough...I don't know what is.

So er You going to have it taken out? Rusting metal could in theory cause blood poisoning....... :shock: Sure you'll be fine though.

Good to hear, any reduction in smoking can only be good.

I think you should get a Tetanus Shot if you haven't already.
What more can I say I wouldn't be here today if the old school didn't pave the way.

The third link wouldn't work for me...the second, I couldn't acces without loging on...and the first? Well, that guy looks like hes into either the movie "The Crow" or King Diamond the band.

I'm also a King Diamond fan...love the music, but I sure wouldn't want to look like him!!

Some of the VF stuff ended up on SomethingAwful's Weekend Web edition a while back. (I don't know why I'm mentioning this, but I'm bored.)

Anyways, that looks quite painful there, circuitface.

Not all of the people are like that. Actually most of them are pretty cool. It's just as divided as say... going to a record store. Alot of people there will suck - alot of them wont. That kinda thing...

Are you still in Pheonix AZ Circuit?
Oh well, maybe on your move, you could jump down a bit and pay us a visit...Vodkatron!
It would have to be the weekend though. If so, I would be glad to meet you in person!

Let us know how things are going. Perhaps a little "Shmup-Meet". Yea, I created that!
We also have a Neo-Geo cab at the recording studio!!! We know our shit man! You know it! 8)
Later.

Cool! We're in south Texas though, a slight dip down! Corpus Christi.
We'd be glad to have a visitor though. Maybe can work things out then?

You won't leave home without a Vodkatron CD in your hand...and memories to last a lifetime. If you can, pay us a visite, or at least drop us a line!

We're currently recording music for at least 4 other video game projects!!!
I cannot disclose of these yet. But you will know em when you hear em!!! 8)
