Cool story !

Next time someone tells you that you shouldn't be at a casino with a broken leg, say, "You mean like you're about to be?"

Sometimes those folks with broken legs can be testy and sometimes down right nice. It must be the frame of mind and if they are winning or not. Sounds logical according to Dr Phil. Get back on that horse and ride.

Broken leg, broken fingers, I always win!

Yo, Joe, no, but thanks. If I were an Eng. major I would not use prepositions at the end of sentences. cddenver. How awful to have TWO broken fingers at the same time. I was very fortunate to only have one broken finger when I broke my knee cap. (At risk of depressing everyone, my niece will soon have a family celebration. I have not seen them since her husband accidentally cut off two fingers with a radial arm saw. They are acclimated to this and I am working on it. PLEASE be careful around tools or better yet, avoid them altogether!) WM would not want to see the names on my short list but GENTLEMAN was not among them for the grumpy casino player. Quick thinking Eduardo, I had not thought of that. Finally, once saw a pathetic guy with TWO broken thumbs from motorcycle accident. Be careful there, too and cherish the good times!

Your not an english major? I was sure I had that one nailed down.
Let me try again. You are a H.S. grad that took some english but never caught on to that preposition thingie?
Yes or no?
Don't ignore me marie!!!

Two broken fingers and a detached knuckle, on my writing hand.  I had a fun time at the emergency room filling out the paperwork.  I've always worked with a keyboard, and the orthopedic surgeon told me that I'd need surgery to fix the knuckle if I "worked for a living" (his words) so I never bothered.

Personally, I think dangling participles are one of the greatest inventions ever. They can get me laughing harder than just about any other form of humor (intentional or not).

 Shadow, have you made your transition yet?

[shadowman]

Not yet, next week. I had to leave a few more coins here to help the struggling economy.  Fortunately my wife decided enough is enough and with her 8th royal of the year today bailed me out yet again.

What happened? You were on fire a couple of months ago and broke all probability laws for RF's per hands played etc. and now, Mrs. Shadow comes to the rescue? ? ?
