Super Glue
Well, the super thing about super glue is that it sticks real good. What's not so super is when it explodes all over your hand. Yep, that's exactly what happened last night. A little tube squished all over my left head as I was trying to glue the wings back on my cow angel. Yea, don't ask. Ok, so its this plastic figurine of a cow with wings. My grandfather bought it for me right before he died so I've kept it. But the wings fall off fairly often. So I was gluing it and the tube goo-ed everywhere. It was a lot of glue. Too much for my normal method of sandpapering it off once its dry. I was able to get my fingers apart before it dried. I tried nail polish remover but as it had no acetone in it it didn't do any good at all. So then I ended up soaking my hand in the hottest soapiest water I could handle and peeled it all off one tiny bit at a time. Took about a 1/2 hour and I got most of it off then sandpapered the rest. I have no fingerprints anymore.

hehe...I must admit that even though Kelly and I felt sad for you, we sure did get a pretty good laugh out of it. :) Sounds like a frustrating situation...I didn't notice anything crazy about your hands at the Robinson's shin-dig the other night, so I guess it all came off without major ruin to your skin...yay.
