A Single Digit Loss



The new Perot Museum Of Nature and Science in Dallas sounds fantastic. But about a week ago a wall of silence went up after a patron had suffered some type of injury on some type of interactive exhibit. The museum wouldn't say anything else.

Until this afternoon. Someone lost a finger. Oh, my.

Lucky for him it wasn't an exhibit on anatomy or reproduction.

They were trying to limit the number of personal injury lawyers who butted in. Hopefully in the hundreds, not thousands.

Hmmmm. Good point Mz. Especially if you can fit a ring around it!

Several decades ago, there was a professional baseball player(can't remember his name), a pitcher, that was playing in a pick up basketball game during the off season. He went up for a dunk attempt and hung his wedding ring on one of the hooks that holds the net to the rim. Of course, it was his pitching hand. He didn't lose the finger per se, it was just non-functional after the accident.

End of career.

Moral of the story, remove all jewelry before undertaking tasks that involving moving parts, gravity and electricity.

Which finger was it? Heh-heh. Were drugs or alcohol involved? If not, why not?

Sadly, I can't past the name of the museum without reading everything that comes after it in Dana Carvey's voice...

Too bad it was probably a white person. I mean who ever heard of a nig going into a museum voluntarily?
