Mike's Gall Bladder Scars

This post is specifically from Mike:

Today I had a rather odd thought surrounding a post-adoption event that will certainly arise.  Basically, the child asks about the scars on my abdomen that are due to my gall bladder surgery.  It's bound to happen at some point going swimming or something.  Immediately, I thought I would answer: "Those are from a knife fight.  I was in a gang back in the day.  That's why I don't want you to get involved in a gang."  Of course, I probably would never actually imply that they were from any such thing and give the boring answer that they were from a surgery I had, but I think it was a bit of an odd thought to cross my mind.
