Too many. I remember on time heading out for a business trip and putting on my pair of brand new Michael Toschi Bertas...

What I didn't realize was that the shape of the last wasn't friendly with the little bone spur on my right heel. By the time I got to San Francisco I had wore a hole in my dress sock and had a pretty bad blister. I could barely walk. I found a pharmacy and got some of that second skin blister stuff which saved the day. |

Different strokes for different blokes... |
 ...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

 I never have either, used to have a hobby of finding ridiculously expensive clothing at deep discounts, then flipping it for a profit to fund my personal stash. This was a lot easier to do during the great recession, don't do it any more. |

You can be honest with us, Spence. We know you weren’t going to San Francisco on a work trip.

2013, cut a large Oak in the woods. i always start from the top and limb out. I also always check to see if and "widow makers" are caught underneath.
Yup! Missed one. Cut through a branch and this 3" in diameter sapling hit me square in the mouth. I saw stars but had the presence of mind to throw the saw.
22 stitches and knocked out my 2 upper front teeth.

Gilly, it is not the fall that hurts, it's the landing.

That must be someone else. I have no idea about cosmetics or the guy who cuts your hair.
