I can relate. My parents were burning brush in piles on our land at TB. My brother walked into a cold pile and kicked the ash around. I thought it looked like fun, and when we got to the next pile, I tried to do the same. My chosen pile of ash wasn’t cold, and I got horrible burns on my feet. 40 years later, one of my big toes still has a visible scar.

Not the dumbest but one Ash Wednesday in college I’m hungover pretty bad and at the grocery store. See an elderly lady in front of me with ashes on her forehead. I proceed to tell her madam you have dirt on your forehead. That’s all I got lol

The stupidest thing I did YESTERDAY was walk behind my buddy who was running an angle grinder with a 60 grit sanding wheel on it. He turned around not knowing I was there. I got a nasty deep gash and 12 new stitches (6 on top, 6 underneath) in my tricep to show for it...

My dad was a "lifer" in the Army and as a young boy we were living in Europe.
We lived in an apartment building just outside the gate of the base and each building consisted of 3 stairwells, each having 6 apartments. The mailboxes for each stairwell was mounted in the wall on the bottom floor. I lit and placed an M80 firecracker (when m80s were the real deal) into the mailbox unit and blew it out of the wall.
Yeah, my dad (and the military peeps) were not thrilled with my action.

Stepped over a PTO shaft between a tractor and grain auger. The spinning shaft grabbed my jeans and ripped my pant leg off from the crotch down. Lord was watching over me that day.


That took me straight back to childhood on the farm, unloading wagons. pto and auger. Lots of farm equipment with pto shafts. Inside the grain bin with clean out sweep auger. lost my balance one time and fell on the sweep auger guard, thankfully I came out with all my fingers.

Can't recall how may times my dad had my brother and I or even himself climb inside wagons with grain and inside the grain bin. My brothers high school pal didn't make it, climbed inside a corn wagon unloading and got suffocated.
