I was the one that had to shovel run over cats and other various road kill off the road in front of our house. I was the one that had to dig up our septic pipes when the system backed up(couldn't afford a plumber then) to get that mysterious blockage out. who knew so many kids toys of various shapes and sizes could collect there? I did learn you always keep your mouth closed when working at that sort of thing though, when the pipe I was wrenching at to get apart parted suddenly and flung its contents directly into my mouth and down my throat. that taste sensation stays with you a while, let me tell you!!

Okay, no way in hell I'm eating a brownie anytime soon, and if it's got walnuts in it I'll probably hurl. Thanks for the imagery there Pimp

So ya, a little gross stuff on a TV show doesn't faze me too much.
However, Rob, what you walked into would have weirded me out big time for a long time. ^^

Yeah, gross stuff on TV doesn't faze me too much although I will say the sliding skin was just nasty - I had an urge to push it back into place.

Honestly I think the thing that bothered me most about the dead gentleman was how not wierded out by it I was. I had four more rooms to visit before I was done and the nurses station was on the way so I dropped off mail before reporting him. The nurses freaked out, one of them came back and insisted I had to sit down in the solarium and 'talk' about what I'd seen. The staff shrink came out to talk to me, everyone was worried I'd be scarred for life and the thing that really bothered me was how not bothered by it all I was at the time. Of course the nightmares I had for the next couple of months took care of that, but at the time I was totally cool.
