Try crushing a light bulb with your fingers. I still have the scar to remind me of that mishap.

My godson crushed a Christmas ball, at the age of nearly two, ending up covered in shimmering glass and blood.
For months he would freeze in his movements, look at his hands with glazy eyes, muttering: "ball....broken". Then he would lift his head again and go on with what he was doing.

I have a a scar left from stepping into buried broken beer-bottles. The wound healed weird, so I had to get it checked every other week for months. That in a time when you could not make appointments, just had to go sit in the waiting-room, and hope it was your turn within two hours. Ahh, the good old times.

I was really mad at my dad--he wouldn't buy me a replacement bulb for a projector so I crushed the one I had in my hands in anger. Blood gushed out and so I walked into the living room, still mad, to show my mum what I considered to be my dad's fault. She fainted.

The a/c fan in the car is now fixed.  The heat index today was 103.

The award dinner was a lot of fun.  Two hours of cocktails and socializing with good people followed by a mediocre (at $65 a plate anyway) meal, followed by more drinking, being presented on stage, and then a group of us went to a local bar afterwards and drank some more.

I got to take home a professionally framed copy of the article and a really heavy steel trophy/award/thingy.  I get a pdf of the article on Monday for anyone who wants to see it and haven't already on Facebook :)

It was a good time and a nice line item on my resume.  In all It seems to have been a success.   :hadron:
