Thursday morning, Autullo awoke at Advocate Christ Medical Center following surgery to remove a 3½-inch nail he accidentally shot into his brain -- not even aware that he had -- while working in his Orland Park garage on Tuesday morning.

He thought it only cut him and took a nap only going to the hospital after he woke up feeling sick :2thumbsup:

 Well, I've heard the brain has no pain receptors, that would explain his not feeling anything.
 But he is a very lucky guy.  I hope he doesn't have any permanent damage.  :orly:

I remember reading quite a few years ago about a man who tried to commit suicide by drilling holes in his brain.  After about 5 or 6 holes he went to the hospital.  Don't know whether he was unbelievably lucky or unlucky that he didn't hit a vital area of the brain.

Usually people end up getting their hand, first time I've ever saw anyone put one through their skull.

Feet are another place people get shot with them.  I have know a bunch of people who shot themselves with nail guns.  I haven't but come close a few times.  At times when you shoot into wood and they hit a knot or something they can turn in the wood and come out next to the gun or the side of the board.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

I've heard of someone getting stabbed in the head and surviving because the knife went in the gap between the left and right hemispheres of the brain.

Wow, must have missed the fibres of the corpus callosum too.

I used to use a nail gun a fair bit where I used to work and a couple of the guys there got in huge trouble for altering the nail guns so they could shoot nails without the guard on them being pressed down. Really dangerous.
