OMGGGGGGGGG! LMAO Shar! You should put that last one over on the men's forum (if ya know what I mean!) *wink, wink*

As to all the rest.......well, round these parts it's like that everyday! Got any extra signs I can pass out?

Example: Each and every morning at work, when we know the forecast is for snow because it's snowing when we all arrive, someone just has to say (and it's not the same person everytime mind you), "They want snow today". This means (in Pa. Dutch speak) that the weather forecast that morning called for snow. This, to them, is funny. And maybe it was the first 5000 times but now I try and predict who might say it first and avoid them like the plague.

Once, at work, I actually sewed through my index finger. This is a once in a lifetime accident....believe me when I tell you that a person NEVER does that more than once in a lifetime, but it happens all the time in the sewing industry. The time I did it I was on an industrial machine where when you stop sewing the needle stops in the down position (great for heavy and bulky textile). Well, there I sat with the needle down through my index finger (through the finger nail) and I was literally in shock. In order to get the needle out I had to manually turn it up and out of my fingertip or I could have hit the pedal and let it sew one more stitch and hope I pulled my finger out in time. Gaining my composure, I opted for the former. I reached over my right arm (the right finger being the one stuck) with my left hand and turned the wheel towards me and the needle came up to the top position (my finger still firmly attached to it). I then put my left hand on top of my right and pushed down and my finger was free. *For those who don't know......we use rather large gauge needles in the upholstery industry to go through several thicknesses of leather.* I was about to pass out (from the shock I assume) when a woman who had been standing behind me watching said, "Did that hurt"? I gave her a look, and nearly yelled at the top of my lungs, "FUCK YEA IT HURT.....LET ME SEW YOUR FINGER ONCE!"

So, can I have some extra signs to pass out around here Shar.....huh? huh? Can I?
