I think you better stay away from furnaces.

Your flesh is still burning after you remove it from the heat source. It's like a steak--keeps cooking after you take it off the grill.

So you are saying that Marsup should've waited about 10 minutes to eat it?


re: med bills. It doesn't sound like they will try to fuck you too bad, but the price they bill is a bullshit number. You should only pay what the insurance companies pay.

e.g. a year ago I had a check up with blood work for chloresterol etc. and there was a error with the coverage. the doctor's office sent a $1500 bill for blood work. after it got straightened out, the insurance company ended up paying only $150.

Marsup, I just read your post. That sucks man, sorry to hear that.
Are there some other things you can do, apart from keeping It dry? Using a topic cream or antibiotics?
Take care, hope you heal soon.

Man that sucks. Take care of the hand, and try to get some pain killers before you're shows. I broke the first knuckle on my right hand once and couldn't play guitar right for a while after. But that was a broken knuckle, I'm guessing you'll get back into it faster, once the pain's gone. Anyway, good luck, fuck the insurance industry.

Did anyone ever hear Penn's (from Penn and Teller) story about how he burned his penis on a hair dryer that was left on for like 30 minutes? Its like the most ridiculous thing you'll ever hear. He said it smelled like cooked steak, and he actually had to use a utensil to pull it off, much like meat cooking on a very hot grill.
