Q: Why don't bin Laden's people eat shit sandwiches? A: They can't stand bread!
LONDON (Reuters)
A British schoolboy carried on
enjoying life for six weeks oblivious to the fact he had a
pencil embedded in his lung, the Daily Mail said.
The pencil speared fourteen-year-old Roy Rowlandson when he was
knocked to the ground while playing at
school. It had been in the inside pocket of his blazer.
The Daily Mail said the bruised boy was taken to hospital but an
X-ray failed to show up the pencil. He was
taken back six weeks later when his parents spotted a lump on
his chest and a special scan found he had
graphite and wood in his lung.
``He has got to be the luckiest
kid on the face of the earth,''
said the boy's father.
``He appeared to be as fit as a fiddle after his accident. He
has spent the past six weeks enjoying football
games and rollerblading.''
