A good friend of mine who is a wood worker was doing some work roofing on his
parent's house when he nailed his foot to the roof with a nail gun. Off to
hospital, and the doctors all scratching their heads about what to do with a
roofing nail right through the top of his foot (it went through the bone,
construction boot, into the roof, etc.) So the doctor picks up the phone and
calls the hospital maintenance staff and asks for a janitor with a pair of
pliers. The pliers arrive at the emergency room, and the doctor sets about to
extract the nail. The nurse freaks, saying something along the lines of "but
it isn't sterile, etc etc". The doctor (according to my friend) turns to the
nurse and calmly says "he has a ROOFING NAIL through his foot, how much more
unsterile do you think it can get...". Out came the nail, with a hard tug, and
my friend learned a valuable
lesson......

So all you modellers out there watch out with your power tools:)
