I did know that. And it tends to hurt. Gasoline is dangerous stuff, me friend.

No, I never heard that before. But then again I never really do have contact with gasoline. You can't get burned from some short contact, or can you?

You live and you learn. And sometimes learning hurts.

Take care.

Concrete can too. Maybe someday this knowledge will save you from a Leper Hand 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Eek!

Really? Well I guess I kind of did know it. Never stopped me from cleaning carburator parts or other engine bits in it with my bare hands.

Not only does someone have to go now & make a film called Leper Hand just so you could then go on to make the sequel, when its in pre-production someone needs to fax the title to Samuel L. Jackson.

Yup. A lot of motorcycle racers sometimes get gas spilled on their groin while they're racing. In a race you can't just pull over and air out your nads, if you're a big time racer and have lots of people dedicating their whole lives to make it so you can win the race you have to finish it and do everything you can to win regardless of how much you're hurting, and races can last over 20 minutes. In that amount of time the pain can become absolutely excruciating. I think it was On Any Sunday II or some other popular motocross movie where they was telling the story about a guy winning a national motocross race and half way through it he just veered off the track into a large pond and everyone was like "What the hell?! It looked like he did that on purpous!" and they asked him later and he said how he had some gas spilled on his groin and the burning was too painful to go on. It was pretty funny cause pretty much everyone who rides has had that happen to them at some time or another.

have you gone to the fucking doctors yet?

Yes, I knew that. I read a book about a tank commander in north Africa in WW2. The book is Brazen Chariots by Robert Crisp. What happened was one day, his tank crew found an abandoned tank with really nice pajamas and sleeping bag. So, he took and used them. He got a bad rash, and went to the army doctor. The doctor examined him, smiled, and said "Where did you find her?"
"Who?" asked Robert.
"The Bedouin girl." the doc said.
Robert had gotten crabs... but not from a Bedouin girl. From the pajamas and sleeping bag.
Another soldier suggested pouring gasoline on the affected areas. So Robert did.
His sensations were not so pleasant... so that's where I found out that stuff about gasoline.

Gas and brakleen are instant removers of all skin oils. Skin-absorbent, too. Some quality non-abrasive hand cleaner followed up by a medicated hand cream helps. Definitely don't touch your eyes or any other (ahem) sensitive areas.

Hope you're feeling better. Still up for making that ring?

Where are the pictures?

Awh what did you do?

On loveline they had this guy named Bert Kreischer on and he mentioned that he had learned through experience that bending over and mooning your friend's boat and then having them shoot gasoline from a pump at your ass and getting it on your ass crack BURNS and when you jump in the water and you're like, "I can't get it offfff!!" they only laugh harder.

yeah, but sometimes i still forget to put on gloves when handling the stuff. some soap and lotion usually does the trick though. hope it gets better soon.
