Nasty


SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Utah woman listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for her long fingernails has lost them in a car crash. Lee Redmond of Salt Lake City sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries in the accident Tuesday.
Redmond's nails, which hadn't been cut since 1979, were broken in the crash. According to the Guinness Web site, her nails measured a total of more than 28 feet long in 2008, with the longest nail on her right thumb at 2 feet, 11 inches.
Salt Lake County Sheriff's Lt. Don Hutson says Redmond was ejected from an SUV in the crash and taken to the hospital in serious condition.
Redmond has been featured on TV in episodes of "Guinness Book of World Records" and "Ripley's Believe It or Not."

An aside from me- some how, some where there is a lesson in all of this. Does God want you to grow your nasty ass dead cells out until you become recognized in a book for the odd and particular? Did she need to grow out her fingernails to cinch that job at the DMV? NO SHE DID NOT, so what happens- she gets in a car wreck and her fingernails get ripped off. How really do you even drive with almost 3 extra feet of finger nail? If you ask me this accident was just waiting to happen.
