Okay, we've got a first effort by Scot Ellison here... check it out:
When I was 16, I worked as a machinist.One day I lost concentration, pushed the wrong lever and my thumb was badly
cut. My parents were visiting far away relatives, when the doctor called
for permission to stitch up my thumb.A week later, as they came in the house, mom and dad were surprised to see
me comfortably seated. It took a moment to figure out that the doctor had
been misunderstood. My folks had been telling and retelling the story of
how I got caught in a machine and that I needed twenty stitches in my bum!
Very cool. I've been wanting to do a series of stories about things that happened in my life, but I'll leave that to Scot.
Things about his life, not mine.
Anyway, if y'all want to record and post stories here, let me know and I'll get them up here for all to enjoy. And don't worry about shamelessly pimping your own sites and podcasts... it's actually welcome here.
