She spent the whole evening hitting on me in front of my family... It was actually pretty funny. My other half got a kick out of it.

    Very cool indeed! Some people's kids, huh?

    I was hanging something for my wife once when i smashed my thumb with the hammer.
    Hearing the #@^%*&%@*&## My wife asks (Did you hit your thumb?)

    She actually asked me that with a hammer in my hand.

    To be fair, there are any number of things you could've smashed with a hammer.

    I've piped at a number of golf tournaments throughout my regions. Virtually every time, a numpty approaches me to ask, "Why on earth would you be playing bagpipes at a golf tournament?"

    Here's your sign....

    I got off work at the hospital the other day, and went over to the bookstore. I was still dressed in my scrubs, and had my stethoscope hanging around my neck. I was wearing my hospital picture badge on a lanyard around my neck. Guy stops me as I'm walking to the desk to pick up my special order, and asks, "Do you work here?"

    D'oh!

    I doubt it will come up again - that's the only time in nearly 10 years of playing - but I love these!
