Yes, right now it is a ratty white string bracelet that I got from a Buddhist monk in a temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I can't wait for it to fall off so (1) my wish comes true and (2) there is not a soggy white string bracelet on my wrist for 2 hours everytime after I wash my hands or shower

1) I don't want to fall out of a tree while sleeping 2) I don't want to sleep in a cold, dark underground cave A tent is an easy choice

to be run like a business.
Our government should be the best managed and most profitable business in the world. It is far from that right now.

- My scar stories...
-
Besides 10 concussions, I have been fortunate to not have too many scars or injuries. Given the amount of stuff I have done, this is extremely surprising to me, but I am grateful. That said, there are 2 scars I have that will always be with me.
Large scar #1 Location: Top / Back of my head
Large scar #1 Reason: When I was 5 years old I thought I could fly so I put my superman costume on, climbed to the top of a recliner in my living room and took the leap. Unfortunately I could not fly and my Superman cape did absolutely nothing but help to soak up the blood from my bleeding head after I landed head first into a sliding glass door.
Large scar #2 Location: Right shin
Large scar #2 Reason: 4 words (MD 20/20 + Fraternity House + Jumpkick + Pledge's Door). I split my shin open down to my shin bone. Two things helped to make the scar even better: (1) Instead of going to the hospital I just went to sleep and (2) A friend poured Vodka on my open wound to help me...all this did was help my wound get infected.
Ahhh, what fun. Glad to know that even a 15 year difference did not make me that much wiser.
