Nick Taylor, Just for a brief second he was.."Damn I didn't know he hit that thing" and just as quickly went, " hmmm wtf did you expect ?" I've had bone infections before & dey ain't fun. Given the depth of the wound and the nastiness of the Manatee fizzle Pool gap@ Ben's ; infection is my major worry. You lil rattlesnake.
