At Cross Purposes

"When he realized that he was unable to nail his other hand to the board, he called 911," Boucher said.

It was unclear whether the man was seeking assistance for his injury or help in nailing down his other hand.

Guess you could say he hadn't quite nailed down the details yet as to how to get his OTHER hand to stay up there.

*shakes head in disbelief*

I'm sorry.

I have this hilarious visual of him realizing his predicament, ala Johnny Depp in Pirates when he was trying to remove his manacles.

How did he get to the phone? That's a funny visual as well, dragging the cross across the room "ouch damn, that smarts" as he accidentally cuts a corner too close.

This reminds me of people in the Philippines nailing themselves to crosses. I think that occurred a few years ago, unless it is (sadly) a yearly occurrence...

hehe
