Grabbed the trap and released the dog. It fired. One of the safeties came off. Got me just behind my thumbnail. Was able to pull it out. Scared the dickens out of me, but wasn't that bad.

But if he had a Belisle, one of the safeties wouldn't have came off. Just give me one thing, that I can hold on to. To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go.
