How did you first smash a finger?

First of all I want to know how the author knew I had smashed my finger, does everybody do it sometime? If that is the case then I don't feel so spastic after all.

There are two possible answers to this question since I can remember smashing fingers plenty of times but have no idea the order in which they happened. However other than the smashing fingers with the hammer trick that I do very well all too often I think the actual fist finger smashing had to have been when I shut the car door from the outside (standing outside that is) and left my finger in harms way and that was where it ended up, right in harms way between the door and the frame of the door in one of our cars. (Seems like it was the old Nash but I can’t be sure of that at all. Anyway it was a real stinger and hurt for some period of time longer than a mere few minutes. Seems like it must have hurt for several days at best.

Do you have any knowledge of the origins of your family name?

My grandfather was George Alma Poulson,

His father was John Christian Poulson who came from Denmark. I do not have nay information beyond that point. I have a lot of information on my grandmother’s line but not grandpa’s. Therefore I have no idea whether Paul was made into Poulson somewhere along the line. Maybe even before Great Grandfather and mother came to America.
