Dave is very right about Ladders being dangerous. I damn near lost my leg
from dancing with one of those puppies. Six months in a wheelchair will
teach a man a healthy respect for those handicap spaces.
The point is there is one sure truth about life! The ticket says admit one.
There is no guarantees, no rain days, etc. Only absolute is nobody (well.
with the exception of Methuselah and a few others how found favor in the
site of the Lord) AIN't NOBODY gettin' out the park alive. Of course, there
is no since in trying to get ejected early either.
I have just finished two big projects and am a fairly happy camper this
afternoon (Only a million more to go).
You all have a great day.

right?
Has anybody heard from Jim Rice?

Keep it in mind that if you take a grinder or sander to a gas tank you can
very
easily create a spark. Gas doesn't need a flame to ignite, just a spark -
ex:
spark plug....
Gas tanks are just plain dangerous. However driving a car can also be very
dangerous - it just depends on how you handle the situation. As we all know
now, winching is also pretty dangerous, working under heavy 13,000 lb trucks
can
be dangerous, climbing ladders can be very dangerous, working with
electricity
can be dangerous.. the list goes on...
Be careful out there!
