so, here's my intended course of action:
- get hold of some tie wire, duct tape, brandy, bolt-cutters, and a sharp razor knife,
- drink a lot of brandy,
- use my razor knife to slice open my chest,
- use bolt-cutters to remove the offending bones,
- replace entire right side rib cage with tie wire,
- duct tape chest back together (and extra brandy can be used to disinfect!),
- spend the rest of the night recovering (more brandy),
- live pain-free! :-)
i might need some help with steps 3,4,5, and 6 (i'll probably have to be quite drunk)- any takers?
