| My grand daughter Allee marches to the tune of a different drum and she often talks me into marching with her. First she "Decided" that I needed to curl my moustache so I'd look like a pirate. I said, ok. No problem. I can grow hair on my lip and in my ears but not so well on my head anymore. Next she decided I needed to shave my head. Her arguement made sense; a haircut is 8 bucks and another 5 bucks to get to town and back. Sooo, I now shave my head every other day. No problem! Honestly, I don't know why I didn't start this 10 years ago. A week or so ago, she decided I needed an ear ring to go with the "Pirate look." I didn't want a ring or a stud so I decided to go with a 4/0 SS Circle Hook. She polished one up, sterilized it and tried to get that big sucker through my ear lobe with a Hemostat. It hurt, and bled like heck but didn't go through because the Hemostat was too darn wimpy. I went to the shop and got 8" Vise Grips. She didn't get the hook clamped securely and managed to botch the hole a bunch when the hook slipped. I clamped the hook securely and this time, it got to bleeding so bad she got sick. Dammmmmmmmmnnnnn, that hurt baaaaaaaddd but the hook wouldn't go through. About that time, my wife came in and saw the carnage and took over. She drove a large pin through and put something on the back after cutting the pin off with my fishing pliers. She said she wanted it to heal before stretching the hole big enough for the hook. No, I wasn't drunk and I wasn't high either. I'll admit to being stupid. The girls who have their XXXX pierced and their YYYYYYY pierced are either tougher than I am or totally wasted when it was done. Don't come near my ZZZZ with anything sharp. I might go ahead with the circle hook if the hole stretches enough but I'll have a snort or two first. I took Allee to the airport this morning for a month long visit with her Mom. When I left her at the gate she said, "I expect to see the hook in your ear when I get home." We'll see.
Life is too short to catch little fish.

| Totally agree with tunaman, 60hertz, and backlash, no way in hell would I put a 4/0 hook in my ear. I've accidently stuck myself and that didn't feel good so I wouldn't be volunteering to stab myself in the ear. Quick thought, what if your working of doing whatever and that hook gets caught on something, a 4/0 hook doesn't have a problem pulling a snapper up from 70 ft, I don't think it would be much of a problem for that thing to rip your ear off.
