Ps. Feel free to google Percy Spencer and compliment me on my ingenuity
Percy Spencer father of the cartoon character Kevin Spencer is also a fat, drunken, loud, boorish and illiterate oaf, so stupid it is questionable whether he can write his own name.
Wonders why you named your bear after that Character Lisa
As you would have called your bear Percy Lebanon Spencer if it was named after the inventor of the microwave

Not broadcastable? You do know it's Lisa-Marie doing the show tonight don't you?
So.. For this weeks show thread topic I would like to know of the most ridiculous injury you have managed to cause yourself AND/OR DIY 'treatments' of said injuries!EDIT : Since there are no takers on the thread subject thus far Mr Hartigan may have to provide a more provocative one! Posted by LML
Before James rolls into Sky Towers and changes the question of the night I'll tell you of one ridiculous injury I sustained.
I went mountain biking with some friends from work. Towards the end of the evening we had just reached the peak of a hill and then were about to bomb down to the bottom.
Everyone shot off and I waited until there was some space between myself and them and then set off. As I picked up speed and almost reached the bottom there was a gentle corner so I didn't need to slow down for it.
Much to my surprise the corner consisted of sand so my front wheel slid away from me, the bike flipped me off and I ended up about fifteen feet away buried head first in gorse bushes. When I extracted myself I had a **** leg and a face full of gorse needles.
Being a trooper I just carried on with the rest of the ride. Hardly crying at all.
Hello. I have just arrived in the Sky Poker office and am now "up to speed" with tonight's show and this thread.
First of all, in an ironic twist of fate, I am also suffering from an injury. I twisted my right knee on Friday afternoon and it's still in a considerable amount of discomfort. So, let's keep this topic going. We want to hear about your HILARIOUS personal ailments.
Secondly, TommyD - your wish is my command. I will place a big fat air kiss on MereNovice's bald dome. Vince - you can fast-forward through as much of the programme as you wish, but I'll make sure Sky_Claire sends you a commemorative DVD :-)
Finally, tonight's Grind challenger is Sean Bugguley, aka: Badger63. I believe he'll be playing mainly £0.25/£0.50 NLHE. Wish him luck!
I`M GOING RIGHT BACK NOW, LUCKILY IT WAS NOT ME BUT THE YOUNGEST BROTHER, WE WERE PLAYIN FOOTBALL AND USEING TREES AS GOAL POST WHEN I TOOK A SHOT, HIT THE TREE AS HE TURN TO SEE WERE THE BALL WENT IT HIT HIM RIGHT IN THE KNACKERS, TOOK HIM 3HRS TO RECOVER LOL
Hi Lisa Marie, Hi James ...or should it be Hoppalong Hartigan and the Cricked Neck Kid? Anyway, good luck with the show tonight, it sounds like you're gonna need it! It should be entertaining to watch though!
When I was at school (as a pupil, not teacher or burglar) I managed to staple my thumb to a note board. The staple was firmly in there and we needed to use that pincer thing that removals staples. The only problem was I couldn't think of the name of such an implement and was stuck there for five minutes trying to describe it. I still don't know what they are called. Surely it's not 'Staple Remover,' we don't call Scissors 'Paper Parters' or Pens 'Ink Sticks.'

Wikipedia authoritatively says this is also know as a staple getter-outerer.

OK here goes
A staple remover (or staple decleater) is a device that allows for the quick removal of a staple from a material without causing damage. Although a simple metal wedge can be used, this method tends to tear fragile papers. For light gauge staples, many people instead use a device consisting of two opposing wedges on a pivot. For convenience, this device has a spring that returns it to the open position after use.
Proper use of the opposing wedge staple remover should also be noted. Staples should be removed via the flat, top side of the staple, not the back "curled" side of the staple. This can however often result in ripping of some paper, so some prefer to loosen the staple via the "curled" side before proceeding to the front flat side for easy removal.
Some staplers, mainly small ones that are about 1.5 inches long contain an integrated staple remover. This is basically a piece of metal that is slid under each "curled" side of the staple and turned to loosen the staple.
Also known as an aligator or staple puller.
god i love google this may have been "useful" in your dilemma tommy
I think what ever pills Lisa has been taking for her neck injury, have got her slightly hyper.
She giggles about Machka's face being buried in a bush and wondering about what type of rash he may get, and also managed to make something out of my post too.
Thuumbs up to you Lisa, but obviously not in a Len Fairclough way .
BTW I take no responsibility should the Sky Poker Channel be taken off the air any time soon
hi Lisa & James Great Show as always am learning loads i wonder if you could show this hand from 4p/8p cash tonight
263902438
i think i bet too much after river card tho i was worried he had higher straight what bet should i have done for value as he had called my previous raises
I was playing online and having one of my better games and very chipped up, the 5 minute break came, i did the usual and visited the bathroom and got a couple of cold beers from the fridge and was just returning to my seat when the doorbell rang On answering the door horror of horrors a scientologist, took at least 2 minutes to get rid of him
walking back to the PC i saw that play had started and as i moved closer it was me to act and i had 2 aces and the time bar almost out, i rushed to the chair catching my foot on the rug, fell forward accross the arms of my swivel chair and rolled head first into my monitor smashing it to pieces Did not hurt too much more a shock, cleaned up as fast as i could and attached a spare monitor, i ran quite deep and won £150 strange thing is when i checked the hand history i found that my aces would have been cracked by kings if i had played the hand, alternative to a bad beat huh

Sympathy has always been my strong suit! Haha
Good Luck to Badger63 on the show tonight, and I look forward to watching the show with the "Always" brilliant James and Lisa-Marie.
I look forward to hearing all the tales involving ailments. Might throw my own into the mix (after 9pm ;0) )

Lovely to see you doing master cash, great show as usual!
Blatant brag to start as I took down another live tournament on Thursday night, Lisa mention your win at this point and take the plaudits!
For James - I went to see Streetdance at the movies today, went because the 11 year old was desperate to see it and I enjoyed it more than him!
James - Comment?
