Lifting a cooler out of the boat in the prep area at Calcasieu Point. The handle of the cooler broke off and I was lifting with so much force my fist flew into my nose and left me bleeding all over the parking lot.

I was talking about all the fish we caught with the guys at the dock. Wasn't paying attention and walked right off the dock into the water. The good folks at the dock fished me out, but were joking about it for weeks. I'm glad no one took a picture of the last two.
, that reminded me of when I was around 14 we were going to meet up with the members of this hunting club we had just joined. I had my hat down low (was 14 so I was a tough guy) guys were sitting around outside and there was a front end loader with the bucket up between us and them and I didn't see it. Walking along and BAM! my head runs into the bucket knocked me down funny as heck
