Ah... been there, done that. When last I was residing in NJ
in 2002, I walked right into the horn of Marshall's 80 #
Brooks. That little bugger is pointy as a sewing needle and
it went at least a good 1/2" or more into my thigh. I didn't
say a word... just cracked a smile and bore it. Never did
THAT again.
