No luck

Brad's finger died. Surgery is hopefully Tuesday. His Dad is excited to be able to give him 4 1/2's (he's missing part of a finger too).

I would show pictures, but Brad won't allow it at the moment - "too gross" he says.

Ol' left pinky tip (LPT as his friends used to call him) will be remembered with fondness . He is gone, but not forgotten. As a personal acquaintance of LPT, many a day I have watched in awe as LPT and Brad joined forces to defeat any foe at racquetball, golf, or whatever the athletic competition in which they found themselves. LPT was one small appendage for man yet one giant digit for all mankind. Brad will now have to use two hands to count the hands whose fingertips defined our generation: the hang loose hand, the crosswalk stop hand, the immortal "Jazz Hands," Dr. Evil, and now Brad's LPT. Goodbye little friend, your place in the great glove in the sky is guaranteed and we will forever feel your presence pointing down at us. LPT is survived by his 9 siblings, including his twin brother RPT. LPT's family will be having a private memorial service this weekend. In lieu of flowers, they ask that donations be made to the International Society for the Promotion of Fingertip Dexterity.

I'll pour some liquor on the corner for my dead homey's finger tip that done passed away

Whoever "Ben" is I want to commend you on a hilarious comment.

I am sorry about your finger...you seem to be in good spirits about it all though.

Now you will have something to make you unique. Because you were pretty much ordinary before.

Awww, sad. Hope all goes well. Dad will love to have a 3/4 finger buddy. We miss you guys already!

Yikes! Good luck with the surgery. Thanks for not posting any of the gross pics...Scott told me about them. You know me...blood, creepy things...not a good combo. Hey, enough with the cow business okay!!
