Shocking!

Another time I was riding my bike down a hill and did not see a large boulder, being too interested in some women across the road. So the bike flipped over and I threw up my arms to protect my face from the rising pavement. I slid for about 20 feet.

When I stopped, I was bleeding all over my arms, and bits of dirt and gravel were embedded in my skin. I decided I had better get myself cleaned up, so I went into the restroom of a nearby gas station. I washed my wounds with soap and water. Unfortunately the "soap" was Boraxo, a gritty substance whose main advantage was that it could remove almost anything from your skin, including your skin. It was really quite painful.

Next, I went to a nearby grocery store to buy some bandages because I was still bleeding. As I stood there in the checkout line, blood dripping on the floor, the cashier looked at me with great concern and said, "Are you okay?." "Yeah," I said, "I just need this box of bandaids." I must have been in shock.

Shocking!

I take no responsibilities for anything resulting from someone else trying any of my stories, they are highly dangerous, and I'm lucky to be alive. i.e. they can KILL YOU, you have been warned.
