About 3 years ago got a tip for some shares in Drillsearch (DLS)
Bought $5k worth at .10 cents.
They went up, down up etc, but dodo bugger all.
Last year I sold out at what I paid for them.
Just checked my Broking acc recently, seeing what my other stuff was doing,they are now at $1.00...,,,,:shock:

Lifted rope with left hand to duck under, bag got caught in the rope and as I turned to free it the hand holding the sand bucket twisted and deposited contents all over my head - wasn't wearing my cap at the time so wore the lot - took a while to get the sand out of everywhere.

Running back with the flight of the footy, eyes on the ball not were i was going. Run flat out into a tree stump that was dead level with my nose = first of 3 broken noses.

I did that in junior basketball too. Came on as a sub and for some reason the other team was defending our throw in at their end. Made a beautiful cut into the key for an easy lay-up. Easiest two points I ever scored.

No biggie as the score was about 50-odd to 20-odd our way.

back in the 90's I tried and succeeded to separate frozen hamburger patties with the knife I'd just used to cut up the onions (didn't want to get a blunt butter knife out of the draw and make more dishes). Was working away from myself then saw a better angle to try. Burgers separated and tip of knife went into hand and severed the tendon of my left index finger. Had to drive myself to Hospital as the ex was too hysterical.

Bear in mind, I have been 'the safety guy' for the last few years...
(I'm not really the safety guy, I'm the training guy, but anyway)

1) Last week of high school at a party, may of may not have had some end of school cheer in me, picked up a golf club at night and started pinging balls from our friends yard onto the neighbouring course. And then proceeded to hit myself just below the eye somehow with the club. Needless to say not a good look for the last week of school photos.

2) After moving into the new place we were moving a large tv cabinet around after having stored it in a spare room for a while. Both the wife and I quickly realised that we needed to be either side of it (ie on the other side of the doorway) so I climbed over the cabinet to get to the other side...forgetting there was a fan going. Must have just glanced the side of my head. Amused the wife for a while at least.

On the turps one night at a previous employer, we'd had a few and when we got to the ground floor via the building lifts, there was one of the cleaners frames (large cloth bag in the middle supported either side by metal frames and held together with some chain at each end).

I thought it would idea to lay across the top and fly around the ground floor. It was awesome and hilarious for all until both chains broke and the frames collapsed beneath me and I fell onto the tiled floor breaking a tooth in half and lodging it in my bottom lip

Surely "silent" and/or "obedient" are all that is required.
