Stabbed by drunk, healed up nice

[Ruler2]

Dang Ranger,I can't see the first bit of a scar,you musta had one heck of a doc,especially with a cut that wide    I seem to get a scar on my face from every cut that's on it, knocked a guy on his arse so hard during football in 7th grade that his helmet went inside my facemask and nailed me right between the nose and forehead, I got a straight line across my nose now reminding me of it,hehe.

Did you make him go to AA?  If not, you should, you may be doing something more than just saving his life.

I think he's done quite enough for the pos.

So when are they gonna fix yer ears?

[Stoney]

Hard core bro...seriously.  Glad it worked out in the end, and living in a small town, you'll never have to worry about anyone screwing with you again...ever...

[gpwurzel]

Vulcan you tart, clean up in aisle 3 - soda, nose and keyboard is all I'm gonna say (sorry Ranger  )

Maybe.

That's a damn pretty heal-up job - did the docs use any kind of anti-scarring meds, or did they re-stitch it with finer sutures, or what?

We used to get calls at the place I worked for some kind of anti-scarring cream, had nothing to do with us.

Anyway, class act on the stop and on the settlement, too.

No anti-scarring meds.  Just time & luck.

Last year I stopped a man drunk off his butt, attempting to get in his pickup and drive.  I didn't know him, was just driving by in the wee hours of the morning and saw him as I passed.  The dude could barely walk, much less drive.  So I stopped, tried to talk him out of driving for a minute, then when he made it clear he was going to drive, I decided to pull him put of the truck.  I wasn't forceful or anything, just had my hand on his arm and was trying to talk him into getting out.  He leaned over toward the middle of his truck with his head down and it looked like he was gonna get sick or pass out.  Actually, he was going for his hunting knife.  At the angle I was standing at, I never saw it.  Suddenly the guy hits me in the forehead with something that dazed me good, knocking to my knee.  His door was still open and now I was ticked, so I pulled him out and pounded him a few times until I knew he was really done fighting with me.  I called the cops, who got there about 5 minutes later.  When they arrived, they were looking at me all wide eyed and called for an EMS.  I thought it was for the drunk, who I'd thumped on pretty good.  To my surprise, the EMS was for me.  Turns out the guy didn't hit me in the forehead, he'd stabbed me in it.  I didn't even know.  I thought I'd been sweating nicely, as it was summer and my adrenaline had been pumping.  Turns out I was covered in blood, not sweat.  I didn't even know. 

So anyway, be careful when messing with drunk strangers lol.  I brought this topic up because I just compared pics from the day it happened & one I took yesterday.  IMO it didn't scar too bad at all.  Btw, thank you to all my squaddies who called me FrankenRanger after showing them photos on our BBS after it happened.  Turds.

  Thanks for the kind words fellas.  This is actually old news (over a year ago) I had just never compared pics before now.  The guy has a wife & kids so I made an out-of-court deal with him and the judge.  250 hours of community service of my choice and prison time suspended.  I'm a family man myself & didn't want to tear one apart for one mistake.  I'm not into suing people, he just had to cover what my insurance didn't, less than a grand I believe.  Since I handled it on my own, there were no real legal fee for either of us to worry about.  He'd accepted my conditions & this has been a closed matter for some time now.  I live in a small town and we cross paths once in awhile.  We never speak but usually will exchange a nod.  All in all, I never had any pain from it, the stitches just itched for a week or so.  I'm just glad I didn't end up with the Grand Canyon down my forehead.  It pays to be hard-headed sometimes.

Btw Junky, great video!

On the other hand it would have made for a very nice scar, particularly if you were wearing a Ranger T-shirt

[DREDIOCK]
