I have these ugly, cracked scabs on my knuckles from last Wednesday when I tried to be all macho by wailing on a heavy bag without gloves. If my karate instructor, Brook, can do it then why can't I? He's been punching shit for over a decade; I've been punching shit for less than a year. That's why I shouldn't do as Brook does.

When people ask me about the lesions on my fists, I tell them I got the wounds from beating my child.

Apparently, not everybody finds this as amusing as I do.
