Nailed It

A couple years ago, my friend, DT, brought his nail gun with him to help with some framing work I was doing. He missed the 2x4 and nearly winged me with one of the nails.

In an eight-year period, the State of Washington reported 3,616 work-related injury claims from nail guns.

In a bizarre accident, Isidro Mejia "accidentally" shot himself in the head six times on a roofing job.

Could it get any worse than putting 12 nails into one's own skull?

I think it could. When August Voegl said that he'd give his left nut to get the roofing job, I guess he meant it.

I hope that you and DT aren't responsable for all 3616 injuries.

I am biting my nails over this, Bill.
