Some of my friends who are roughnecks have a joke that none of them have all their fingers or original teeth.

Not much of a joke if you ask. It is pretty much just plain fact!

I went to high school with a guy that lost part of a finger “BETTING” somebody he could move his hand before the other guy could sling the chain on the drill pipe and cut his hand off.

Since he only lost part of his finger and not his hand he won the bet. IIRC it was a couple of hundred bucks.

I’d rather have the finger.
