1. When I was like 3 I fell and cracked my head on the living room coffee table. Needed stitches on my forehead.
2. When I was like 8 I was running through the house and crashed headlong into the corner of the wall. Split my forehead wide open. Needed lots of stitches.
3. My "friend" David Owens was swinging a heavy lead sinker at the end of about 30 feet of fishing line around in a circle as fast has he could and hit me on the side of my head above my ear. I fell down and blacked out for a moment. I needed several stitches on that one.
4. Jumped into the shallow end of the swimming pool, head first with my arms at my sides. Needed several stitches on the inside of my mouth behind my upper lip. Nice!!!1

When I was 3 my mom got in a car accident. I wasn't wearing a seat belt (it was probably the green '50 Ford, which had no seat belts) so I fell forward into the dashboard hard enough to bend the ignition key. When I was 5 my dog attacked me, resulting in me getting 16 stitches, all on my head. When I was 12, I said something to piss my dad off, and he punched me in the face. We were babysitting my aunt's dog, and the dog tried to protect me by biting my dad's fist. Unfortunately, what the dog ended up biting was my face, milliseconds after the punch.

Lemme see, (Hey Glurpers...sorry I been away. Unless you were relieved, in which case  ) When I was 4 or so, I was chasing my cousin down some stairs, fell and cut my chin for 4 stitches. At 6 or so, I tripped into a glass table, and ended up with a few stiches through my right eyebrow. But the real biggie was getting dropped on my head a few days after birth, when our Bull Terrier attacked my mother while she was holding me. She had a scar on her ankle the rest of her life, and I have a flat spot on the back of my head. (and yes, that may explain a few things. again.  ) --A |

Statistics show that 1 out of every 1 Glurpworlders have suffered from some form of severe head injury early in their childhood. We three are the lucky ones; at least we still remember ours. Well, technically I don't remember the accident that happened when I was 3, but I have managed to retain the information that was relayed to me by my mom, and that certainly has to count for something.

Hahaha, these are only the physical head injuries.  I've also had meningoencephalitis twice...that couldn't have helped any... --A |

In my case the injuries probably lowered my IQ by a couple of dozen points. In your case it may have had the opposite effect, the event leaving you in the super genius category. ;D |
