...just managed to get my weight off my bare (it was 40C that day) foot in
time to avoid the scalpel. It landed (yep,dart style) right where the foot had
been.

That reminds me of a guy that worked in the electronics assembly
department at one of my previous employers. He and exacto
knives didn't really get along.

One day I walked into the room just in time to hear him swearing
and see half an exacto knife blade sticking out of one of the
knuckles on his left hand.

When I asked him what sort of stupid use of the knife resulted
in that situation his reply was something like "It's not always
my own stupidity. Exacto knives are out to get me. One day I
was sitting here minding my own business and the knife just
rolled across the work bench, tipped off the edge pointy end
down, and stuck right in my leg and stood there." :-)

ROTFLMAO-TWICE!
