::insert piontless title here::

This is an awesome story, it's the weirdest accident ever... A construction worker in Lancaster, Calif., is
expected to make a full recovery after accidentally being shot in the
head with a nail gun -- six times. Three of the nails penetrated his
brain; one entered his spinal column, but luckily not his spinal cord.
Witnesses say Isidro Mejia, 39, fell from the roof of the house he was
building onto another worker who was using the gun below. "The guy
holding the nail gun was grabbing to keep from falling, and just
gripped tighter on the trigger," said a Los Angeles County sheriff's
investigator. "It's a nail gun they use for framing. It can drive nails
through 2-by-4s." (Los Angeles Times) ...It's the first time L.A. cops
have said it: a Mexican guy really was framed.
