Got any “jobs” you want done? Anything or anyone you want, well, “taken care of”? If so, I’m your man. Or, woman, to be precise. Not that I’ve been leading a life of crime up to this point, but now that I’m in the perfect position to, why not?
I’m pretty new to torches and soldering and all the fun things I’m learning in my class. I’m really starting from scratch. I thought I at least knew enough, however, not to touch something hot. Today as I was working on soldering a large chain, I realized a link was not properly closed and as I went to try to adjust it, I caught myself. Wait a tick, hold on here, the link is probably still toasty, I thought. So instead, I took hold of the cross-lock tweezers holding it….By the metal tweezing end that had just been in the same flame as the link. Damn near burned my fingerprints off!
My fingers are still red and seem to be perfectly smooth.
So as I said, I’d be the perfect criminal – untraceable, unidentifiable. Send your dirty deeds my way. Want a million dollars? I’ll rob the bank for you. I’ll just try not to do something stoopid like write the demand note on the back of a deposit slip from my own savings account.
Oh no! I know that stung something awful. About nearly did the same thing with the pan I baked in the oven on Christmas morning. I caught myself and decided to put my knuckle on it instead. lol
I still have the mark from it that hasn’t quite peeled off…
