Broken Wing!
This is what happens when a lone finger impacts a heavy, metal door at a high rate of speed. Believe me, it was A LOT more purple and swollen about 4 hours ago.There's this peculiar little passageway between the control room and the backstage area and on either end there's a heavy, air-locked door. On my way into the studio for rehearsal, I was reaching for the handle of one door while my friend Suzie was coming through it. Neither of us saw the other. Cue hilarious pratfall. Anyway, after crouching on the floor for about five minutes whimpering and clutching my quickly bruising finger, Bobby the cop/security guy took me to the NBC medical center where they didn't have any finger splints that fit my long, thin finger. So they cut off the top of a tongue depressor and taped it on. How's that for state of the art medical treatment. Plus, the x-ray tech is on vacay this week, so I was told to hike it over to the nearest emergency room, so they could take some pictures. Needless to say, I ignored that direction.
So here I am, it's 9 at night and I still have a tongue depressor taped to my finger. At least the bruising is almost gone.

You won't be able to give people the fake-middle finger, because I know that's what TV comedy writers do, sit around and give each other the fake-middle finger. At least, that's what I would do.

LOL. Yup, you nailed it.
Oh my goodnesses. Me had whole finger chop off as boy, and not whine so much.
Regor, the Latvian towel boy.
Stuff it, Regor
Yes. I expect your crude response. And while I at it, let me say this website sadly lacking in adult contents. Sure, we hear of this dirty girl, and numbers of your readers double that day, to 4, but not hear much else.

I'll try to up the T&A factor for you, though, if you'd read closer, you would have seen that others called me dirty girl, I did not name myself that. A subtlety that, I'm sure, Latvian towel boys with only 9 fingers can't really grasp.
