rob, I once tried to correct a healed-over cut on my right hand, by scraping it with a sharp knife and laying the skin flat the second time. It’s all healed now but I had to covert it with a weeping wound bandage for like 4 weeks.

All — it turns out the elderly woman from the vurb cut thread last week is a friend of mine, and I’ve known her for three years, and we were seated next to each other at a dinner party Friday.
I was talking about Brownstoner and how we get together a lot. no one there really knows what a blog is or why people read them, so I began describing the curb cut thread and how we all argued but in reality we are chummy and all that. I mentioned the situation; everyone was listening; the elderly woman was helping clear dishes and she re-entered the room.
HER: “Oh, that same thing is happening on my block.”
ME: “Really? What street do you live on?”
HER: “St. Mark’s.”
ME: “Number 97?”
HER: “Why, yes.”
Then I had to reassure people I wasn’t advocatin she get thrown out, which was not too successful I think. She mentioned an inspector had been there asking “where is the work being done??” apparently from my lame joke about the site being up.
Apparently the new owner is quite the Eurotrash type – read into that what you will.
Rob – Maybe you can start a new career – going around to high schools & showing your amputated foot from where you tried to remove a tattoo – thereby discouraging young people from having them in the first place.
dave i have the word “SLAVEBOY” tattooed on my ankle. it was an inside joke, has nothing to do with S&M ick. i hate the tattoo and everything it’s associated with so this weekend i went nutso on it trying to cut it off and scratch if off. insurance doesnt cover tattoo removal for some dumb reason. ugh i probably gave myself tetanus in the process lol. hopefully it’s gone or just a big mess. luckily the tattoo ‘artist’ sucked and it looks like it actually says SKIVEBOY, and explaining what skiveboy could mean is probably worse than what SLAVEBOY is, tho id rather people just think it says skiveboy.
i cant get back to work.. too many days off in a row can get tedious.
