This I have to disagree with, Having taken two 45 slugs for selling a
fictional Laser Sculpting Tool I think that actually getting shot is much
more painful.
The short story is that a local crazy thought I sold a laser to a couple of
other locals who were going to use it to give him a lobotomy (1980). He came
looking for them. When I told him it wasn't true, he shot me.
The moral is not to tell a crazy that he is wrong.
I only spent 11 days in the hospital thanks to an Ex Air Force doctor that
had had experience with gunshots. No permanent disabilities, thank goodness.
In the long run it lead me to moving to Portland and getting into the
computer business. If I hadn't gotten shot many of you on the list would not
have gotten the classics from me that you did. (to make it a little on
topic.)
