    Don't ever shave naked whilst standing in front of a mirror that hangs directly above a very hot radiator.

    I'm not sure if this is just British wisdom or has been gained through personal experience. And I can offer neither sympathy nor empathy unil it has been made clear.

    Did you, BKS, my boss, my buddy, Lord of this your Kingdom of Peace & Love, shave naked in front of a mirror hanging directly over a hot radiator?

    I was working at a submarine sandwich shop as a teenager and was a little drunk. ( I was a baaaaaaaaaaad kid)

    Anyway, as I went to slice this gentleman's sandwich in half, I simultaneously sliced into my left thumb. (very deep- still have the scar)

    I ran into the back kitchen to wash my hand, leaving the sandwich there and telling no one what happened. It was so quick that no one saw or had any idea. "Cut and run" quite literally!


    The scary part: The man had ordered a meatball sandwich and I shall never know what became of it, since no one knew why I scampered off...

    I reckon he found it to be extra saucy that day.

    Well I was an idiot this morning. My mistake was thinking while washing the top of a can of dog-food.

    Now I have a great little cut nearly directly on the middle of my right thumb. Maybe it'll leave a scar to balance out the ones I have on my left thumb....

    Never cook (American) bacon without a shirt on

    Always use shaving cream unless you are using a small electric razor to do a few touch-ups

    Do not attempt to break up cat-fights (between cats, girls, or girl cats)

    Never stick your finger on a fork that's been left in a pot of pasta that's been left to boil/simmer for a few moments...

    Don't take any dietary supplements because your wife says "You ought to take these." I forget what the evil substance was, but I fell over with a fever, my body turned bright red, and I wondered if I was going to die. When I recovered, I found that the stuff warned that all of this might happen in tiny print on a giant piece of paper folded inside the box.

    This lemur has been very cautious about vitamins/supplements ever since. Now I wish I could remember what that stuff was ...

    At least I don't have any scars to show for it. When I buy a house of my own, I'm going to ensure radiators are not situated at crotch height.

    Never leave a room that contains a toilet, you’re wallet and younger sister.

    Or never let that same sister play with youre house/car keys (After a few months I found them, half buried in the backyard)
