Yep, not an unexpected reaction. This would be where I have to pull up my shirt and show the ‘tiny’ scar from the entry wound… and then the larger scar from the exit wound.

Bullet actually nicked the pericardial membrane. My neighbor [pediatric cardiologist] road in the ambulance with me to the hospital. Said he lost my heartbeat 4 times on the way. Ambulances back then were just fast station wagons that could hold a gurney, so they didn’t have all the trauma tools that modern ambulances have.

The worst thing about the whole experience (well, maybe not the worst) was that all I had for a bandage was, umm, a Band-Aid. The freaking entry wound was smaller than your pinky nail. So when everybody asked to see “where you got shot”, it was pitifully anti-climactic.

Wow! What a crazy story. I was expecting you to say it was an accident – jeez!

Christine, If I had only I nickel for every time someone asked or I showed the scar…LOL.

Let’s just say that a mentally unstable boy in the neighborhood was trying to avoid a well deserved throttling. He brought a rifle to the fist-fight, I only brought my fists.

Shot in the chest! You say that so nonchalantly – how in the world did that happen?

I’m sorry…after that picture I didn’t remember anything about you. Did you say something?

Thanks for the tag, though!

Hi, Wizzer here. Thanks for the tag – I know I’m some way back in this tagging game now so it’s all the more welcome.

I’ve come across some great blogs because of this – I’ve never really thought about recruitment for restaurants before – sort of thought about “hiring now” signs I guess (pretty shallow huh!).
