Ah Gots Me Ah Itchah - Ah Means, Ah Acheah Triggah Fingah

I haven't done this in 35 years, and swore that I'd never do it again. I'm on some pain meds for muscle spasms because I have some bulging discs in my upper back/neck, and they're making me kind of dopey. Not stoned or anything, just... forgetful, and a little slow. I was resetting the Oil Service Lamp on the BMW 325Is, and realized that you need to have the key in the on position to engage the tool. Upon getting out of the car, I gently shut the door...

On my finger.

My trigger finger!

Needless to say, there were some... histrionics in the parking lot. Anyone witnessing the event would have assumed demonic possession, or worse.

Looks like I'll be polishing up my left hand shooting drills. After all, when does the forced entry/armed robbery/Zombie Invasion occur? After you've stocked up on provisions and ammo, or when you've smashed your fingie in the door and are unable to shoot a gun with your best hand?

That hurts just to look at. I think that you should stock up on grenades in the event that you suffer such an injury when the zombies come.

Ouch! Go get a Winchester model 99 with a thumb-trigger (link).

Hey dopey - guns don't work on Zombies anyway. . . but as long as you can achieve spontaneous demonic possession, you'll be OK.

Cutter, that's one Hee-Haw lookin' gun, that's fer sure!

Jheka, grenades may indeed dismember the Undead, but remember, only hits count - hits directly to the Central Nervous System. ;-)

Jen, the spazaoid "dance" I did in the parking lot would have made many a Christian cry out, "Get thee away from me, Wicked Pestilence, in the name of The Lord!"
