Un jour, je n'avais que sept ans, en pêchant, j'ai sorti un pinfish, comme on l'appelle, avec des épines dorsales acérées -- en tirant trop fort. Et je me suis crevé un oeil.
One day when I was only seven years old and fishing, I pulled a "pinfish," they're called, with sharp dorsal spines, up too hard and fast, and I blinded myself in one eye.
