"If we know where we want to go, then even a stony road is bearable." ~~ Horst Koehler
I remember as a kid riding to school one morning with my friend, Robby. We had just ridden over a big speed bump in the road. A truck coming in the same direction never slowed down at all and lost his muffler and tail pipe. The pipe part spun around in the road, right where we were, and Robby's back tire went over the edge of it. It must have been searing hot because it melted his tire and blew the tube right there on the spot. It was the weirdest thing... and the guy never stopped. (this was a speed bump put in front of the school to slow drivers down.)
As for deliberate, I've had bottles, food, curse words, middle fingers, whole hands reach out and hit me...![]()
Oh, that's gonna bruise...![]()

I've been pretty lucky thus far (knocking furiously on wood)....
I've had only 2 instances that recall. Once, last fall, someone hurled a black walnut seed pod at me. That hurt like mad. Another time, I was shot at by someone with a pellet gun. Does that count as getting "thrown" at you??
One time, when I was a kid, by brother and I got this grand idea that it would be fun to play catch with a dart.He missed and ended up with a metal dart stuck in his cheek. Needless to say, that ended that game pretty quickly!
