I did the redneck asphalt sledding once. Definition:find the largest chunck of vinyl flooring the thicker the better [i did not] fold it up as many times as possible no smaller than one foot square,put holes in each corner thread rope thru holes fasten securly to your backside, tie a ski rope to back of vehicle, sit down on pavement get dragged by vehicle,not as painful if drinking excessively prior to this stupid stunt.
[ this is not recommended for sissys severe buttocks injurys are going to happen]

When i was at Homestead AFB the guys used to channel ski in the canals by the potato fields [channels carved out of the coral for watering the fields] just like water skiing but useing a car or truck, if you hit the wall it's just like a meat grinder,the base had so many folks injured they threatened court marshall if caught.

I could have banked a cool $250 from my last accident, but decided not to claim it...they paid me $275 last year when I about sliced 3 of my fingers off.

yeah, I was picking up a washing machine and didnt know there was liquid detergent on the bottom of it...it slid and sliced into my left picky, ring and index fingers...had to have stitches...

Then with the eye, I just never took the time to go to the ER and get the bills from having the metal removed, so I just said eff it and didnt make the claim.

you have to file yourself?

SmokedRam

Yep, just go onto their site and submit a claim...claims process lasts about 4 or 5 days after you gather all your paperwork and submit it...get the check in about 7 days total...one of my coworkers got bit by a spider and they paid him like $4K
