Went up the ladder, cut out my piece, came down, got 2 steps from the bottom and hopped off....right onto that nail I had sunk into the piece which fell right at the base of my ladder tip up... At least I had the sense to keep a first aid kit in the truck....Murphy was laughing his arse off that day.
