We saw the story here at work on a different website.  Most of us have cleared trees and brush and we're wondering how the hell he got a ROPE tangled around his neck.

This man not a newbie to the work, was he under any kind of perhaps new medication, or so distracted he did not realise the rope was on his body ???

This is horrible, it never should have happend.   Questions here, he was not alone, did he give any yell out to stop the machine, was he in fact alive when he when into it, or dead of a heart attack or stroke perhaps.

What ever his family, friends an coworkers will now have nightmares for weeks and months, not to mention the responders that had to get his head out of the machine and remove the head less body.

We see these monster machines every day up here and never hear of any accidents, so, perhaps OSHA can find out what happend, does OSHA trump the State police in investigations I wonder ????

Dearest vesta -

DID YOU READ THE ****ING STORY?!?!?

That's a "Yes" or "No" question.

Once we're past that, here's your next question:

If you read the story, what part of it don't you understand? It was written at the 8th grade reading level.

Why? Did you recently acquire it at a flea market near the Hollywood hills?

"The Rules In Dealing With Vesta" must be buried in the fine print.   :thatsright:   In any event, I wanted to make sure she saw the results of her spew -- assuming she's a) coherent, b) sane, c) illegal drug-free, and d) Not in Diapers.

Well, one can hope can't one?   :lmao:

Nah, she does. Maybe not always, but she does review the wreckage. And probably drools in response. Sorta like Pavlov's dogs.

There was a thread earlier this month that ended up in a consensus about that, and it's been mentioned in a lot of other ones since; the BS for this is one of those two-for-flinching horseplay things, not ill-intentioned.

With my BS count the way it is, the LAST thing I worry about is getting another one.  :lmao:
