That wound on his temple would be fatal, from the looks of it.

Now stop that!

Well spotted – it irritated me too

I have an interesting story about one of my real wounds and my mother. If any readers tend to get queasy, you should probably skip it.A friend and I were messing around, sort of “tightrope” walking on one of those wavy metal guardrails on an overpass when I slipped and cut my left shin to the bone on that rail. It was a clean cut, so it wasn’t bleeding much, but a big flap of skin and leg meat was hanging off and I could see my shin-bone. I didn’t panic, pulled my sock up to keep the flap from, well, flapping, and pedaled like a maniac for home, leaving my friend well behind. When I got home, the first thing I said to mom was “now, mom, please don’t freak out, OK?” To her credit, she didn’t. Loading me in the car, she drove me to the ER, where I got 20 stitches.

& Mai Griffin Give her a break. She was very upset and not thinking grammar.
