Guten tag everyone,
Lastnight Jenia and I were watching The Deadliest Season: Alaskan Snow Crab Fisherman, the #1 deadliest occupation out there. These fisherman work for one season and make upwards of at least $140,000, usually tons more depending on the number of crabs caught (large male), and how large the vessel. Typically, for every crew, one member does not make it back alive. So show interviewed a few chosen fishermen, one in particular was going back to sea for the 3rd time. This season he was eager and back with a vengeance, since last year he lost his index finger at sea. He was prepared now though, he said, because he keeps his finger with him for good. Then, without warning, the fisherman pulls down his shirt and takes out a 3" black index finger with a green rotten nail shoved into his gold chain. Then he gently and ever so lovingly tucks his special knub back into his shirt for safekeeping. It all happened so fast. Jenia laughed, I shit my pants.
