Oh and atm a two inch long gash on my left thumb pad, you know your palm right underneath your thumb...

Damn, I didn't know *****'s had claws..

Ok medical scars.

Small 1 inch scar on the inside of my my right upper arm where the lymph node was removed diagnosing my Hodgkins disease

2 2 inch scars on the inside of my left upper arm from where a portacath
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port-a-Cath
was implanted, then removed when I was getting Chemo.

1 2 inch scar on the top of each foot from the lymphangiogram I received after above diagnosis (ever pee in turqoise?)

Ok, more or less glamorous depending on your perspective.

Its almost gone now, but a 4 inch scar on my left elbow area from blocking a knife during a gang fight. (he lost)

1 small bump just above the hairline on the front of my head where during a street fight when I was a teenager someone busted (yes busted)  a section of cinderblock on my head.
His mistake, as I have a notoriously hard head and pain only pisses me off even more. And he soon thereafter found out that chunks of cinderblock can be the next best thing to a dentist in teeth removal. Oh well, he had bad teeth anyway.

Then there are the scars of the heart of which there are two.
Funny how those scars never seem to completely heal.
but we wont get into those

Other then that Im pretty clean. considering all I've been through Im pretty lucky. Could be ALOT worse
 Though if you shaved my head you might see a scar on the back of it from when I was a little kid and jumped on the back of another kid playing around. We both fell backwards and my head landed on a section of and old barbed wire fence that had fallen down

there ya go.

Right hand. when I was 21

In a bar one night and got really pissed off at someone.
Promising my GF ad the time I wouldnt  then get into something in the bar and do anything to him there. I punched a wooden beam instead.
regretted it IMMEDIATELY.

Dont think I've ever felt a similar pain before or since.
That night if I moved the little toe on my left foot. it made my hand hurt

Still bothers me from time to time when the weathers right

Made up my mind after that. That if I was ever that pissed off at someone again I would just go ahead and hit them and damn be the consequences.

Still might break my hand but I'd get a hell of alot more satisfaction

Lots, most from fighting.

 Brick to the head - two inch scar on top under hair

 fist to the lips - round scar on lip, sort of fat forever

 beer bottle to the elbow in a brawl - right elbow covered 90% scar tissue

 both knees asphalt burned - bar fight

 inside left ankle just under ankle bone - knife

 left hand - boxer break hitting brother with uppercut, surgery, pins

 left hand, thumb, chipper machine reconstructive surgery, pins

 left wrist, cat, stepped on it at night, put in shower

 right shoulder, cigar burn shaped scar, cowboy boot kick with a running start

 barbed wire, back, running from gunfire

 shotgun pellets, back, not running fast enough from gunfire

 I think there are more, can't remember. I have settled down some.

Hilarious.  

For some odd reason, I have a really bad habit of smashing the very back top of each finger on something and taking the skin off.  I have 4 pink / discolored spots from taking the skin clean off, right infront of the fist knuckle.  

I have a scar on my shoulders from a really nasty sunburn.  It wasn't the sunburn that gave me a scar (though it didn't help).  It was the camper who jumped up on my shoulders and subsequently ripped the skin off my shoulders.

Then ironically, I have a sunburn scar on the base of my neck, left side.  Completely seperate incident, a packed Beaver Stadium and I was too drunk to remember to put on sun screen.


And the last one (that shows, I seem to get hurt internally more then externally) is my Lyme Disease scar.  Yes, I didn't even know these existed.  The fabled bullseye mark left a scar on my leg.  It's not discolored at all, you can't even see it.  But it has left the skin misshappen perfectly around where the mark is.  It really pisses me off too.  I'm the only one who knows it's there, but it reminds me everytime of the worst year I have ever had in my life.

Enough, some surgical some from various injuries, I just don't pay attention to them.

I'm assuming acne scars and pockmarks don't count? :D

I just have a 2 inch scar on the hairline from a close encounter with a radiator, mainly cause some wise arse placed it there when the house was built, I was flying when I was 4 and it got in the way.

Left knee -

Imagine what 80mph (just tootling)) on a Yamaha FZR1000 + wet leaves on a corner + a pair of Levis does :) .

Funnily enough my immediate thought after I had finished throwing myself down the road was - damn I only bought these jeans 2 weeks ago.

Mostly little ones...

4-incher on the inside of my left foot. Running down a camper who snatched my duffel bag and clipped my foot on a tent stake. Caught the 'tard at his car a few minutes later and got it back.

Pair of 2-inchers on my left instep. Dropped a hardwood pallet on it at work after getting hit from behind by an idiot backing up a powered pallet jack.

Quarter-sized on left forearm; ex g/f got torqued off at me in the car and rammed the cigarette lighter into my arm.

1/2-incher a hair below my left eye. Light bulb exploded and a shard came straight down into the top of my cheek.

A handfull of dime-sized punctures on the front of my left shin, and a 1-inch stripe on my calf, from a dog bite.

Tiny half-moon shaped thing on my left index finger; knife slipped while whittling a stick.

Thin scar line down the middle of my right index finger pad. Caught it on a nail sticking out from a pallet at work, and as a result bled on a half-dozen copies of the local paper. Someone finally asked if I was bleeding, and I didn't even notice it until then. Right index/middle finger second knuckles are partly scar tissue from the same job.

Just picked up a shiny new two inch one above my forehead: copped a surfboard in the head the other weekend. It was my surfboard so I can't complain and it could have been worse: at least it wasn't the fin.

I played rugby for years so I've had my fair share of cuts, knocks and broken bones.
