Ever done something like this?
As a child I swallowed unusual items (a square, plastic bread tie to mention one). I was also quite accident prone. My own children have even pulled similar stunts - my daughter once dropped a bobby pin down her nose (she was scratching her nose with it while laying down on the bed). It went through her nose and down her throat and she swallowed it...imagine that! It finally passed a few days later.
Then a couple years ago for her birthday my youngest daughter was given a snow cone maker. We first had to freeze blocks of ice in these molds that came with the machine. She was still young enough not to quite understand and excited enough about the snow cones that she thought the mold was the snow cone and pulled it right from the freezer, putting it to her mouth and slapping her tongue right to the ice. Yep...does the Christmas story come to mind?
Her tongue bled some once it was removed from the ice and it swelled a bit. Funny thing was (which we laugh about now) it was just an hour before the annual Christmas program at school and you should have heard her try to sing with a bummed up, sore tongue. It was cute!
Anyways I have yet to see someone accomplish this (poor guy)....Do you have any similar funny stories?

That pic is hilarious!
Hmmm, funny stories... I once swallowed a piece of spaghetti in an odd way that it came out of my nose. I caught my fingers in door ways, door locks, etc., I don't know how many time as a young kid. I still get the urge every now and then to stick my fingers in doors or holes that are just a little bit too small for my finger. But I only actually do it occassionaly, and so far, no embarrasing situations. hee, hee.
