Which ....head? Oh, I didn't really say that did I......I am a professional that deals with the extraodinary, the unusual and the unbelievable: what I deal with is every person's Darwin award winning performance of the "I thought I have seen it all and this won't hurt me" as they try to beat the odds of dying.
