Insert Missing Finger in Last Post

Saturday, August 27th, 2005 | Uncategorized

So I talked to my friend Mark today. He reminded me of the best part of the concert the other night.

This guy and a blind woman in hysterics comes up to mark and me (no, this is not the start of a new line of jokes) and she’s freakin’ out… Once we started to understand her she was asking if her son was allright. She wanted to know how badly he was injured.

He had gotten hurt and was bleeding… a lot…. Ok well that tends to happen when people are missing part of their fingers. They were going to get him some medical attention, but it wasn’t helping to have his blind mother freaking out.

So she asked us how bad it was, and since he was saying he was fine that’s what we said… “Yeah, it’s just a little scrape…. no big deal…. but it probably wouldn’t hurt to get a bandaid on it”.

Ok SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, he wasn’t exactly fine, but it wasn’t spraying bad enough to get in my eye or anything. Spending time ranting and raving to strangers certainly wasn’t speeding up his getting medical attention.

Now it’s not that I reccomend lying to disadvantaged blind women while their sons are holding their own bloody fingers in their hands, but in this case with a majority vote we decided it was the best choice avaliable.
