I was hiding under a parked car to scare some trick or treaters and I dislocated my shoulder and tore the rotator cuff two days before my wedding.  She who must be obeyed was not happy.  She saw the sling, gritted her teeth and said "that better fit under your tux"!

I've got two scars from different adventures with fireworks.

Went deaf for two days following an "experiment" with ocy-acetylene in my jr. high metal shop class.

I've done lots of dumb stuff but those were the ones where my luck failed most spectacularly.

I was the oldest sibling that wasn't doing homework.  I'd suggest finding out why she's not keeping up.  Is there too much and it's overwhelming or is she underchallenged and bored?  In my case fixing the underlying problem would have been more effective than punishment.  It also sends the message that you're there to help her fix her problems instead of just nagging at her all the time.
And remember.....free advice is worth what you paid for it!

Sounds similar to a method called "spatchcock".  I do it when bbqing chicken.  I cut out the backbone and open the bird up so it's lying with it's inside facing down on the grill.  It's way quicker and seems to be pretty moist too.  I'm assuming that's because of the shorter cook time.  Most of the time my wife get's the butcher (she works in a grocery store) to cut the spine out for us.  The first few times she asked him to do it he gave her some pretty funny looks.

I did the same thing at my weekly poker game.  Unlike NBC, I can blame beer.

Helter Skelter kicks some serious ass too.

My buddy loaned me a CD from a Bob Dylan tribute concert back in the early 90's.  There's some great stuff there.  Clapton, Neil Young, Pearl Jam, Lou Reed.  Just awesome.

Yeah it's out but they should put it back in!

Hey Badeye,  I've seen a video on youtube with Jeff Healy and SRV playing "Look At Little Sister".  Go have a look, it's amazing.
