Honestly I get ya. I got the heat once in my eyes and my wife told me previously about the trick. The hair of my three year old daughter worked like a charm.
OT: So a trick I tried and failed miserably at goes like this. I was slicing veggies on a mandolin for poker night at my new place. I didn't use the guard and proceeded to slice the tip of my thumb off. it clipped a vein so there is quite a bit of blood. I decide to cauterize the wound with a hot butter knife that I heated on the stove. I had no guts and passed on that idea. Then I recalled Kerry Wood cutting his thumb on a pop can and using super glue to hold it all together.
I was working on a plastic resin chair repair the other day using a two part epoxy. So I figured, why not? Well, not only did it not work, but the looks in the ER when I told the story to the nurses made me feel like the dumbest man on the planet. They shot me up with Novocain three times in my thumb prior to cleaning it. For some reason it had no affect on me. They were going to give me a fourth and I said, forget it, just clean it. It hurt, but I didn't care.
When I got back I found two things. The tip of my thumb was not in the salad but on the counter.And I also got my first gray hair at the age of 27.
/OT
I have to ask... did you guys eat the salad still?
