Gee, Spook. Some people wouldn't know a good thing when it landed in their lap, huh?

Yes, yes it is very nice to share.

Spook, I'm glad you are recovering from your fall! But don't blame Mrs. Spook. Obviously the ladder was at fault and the company that made it has to pay ( anyone else want to join a class-action suit?)!

Don't tell me this was a homemade ladder of 2x4's, it was a Werner, RIGHT?

Hey, is this a class action lawsuit? I fell off a ladder (well it actually fell out from under me) last year and have not been right since. Of course I wasn't right prior to the fall, but that is irrelevant. Right?

 

[theotherranch]

Sour, with you on the stand, I see a whole bunch of zeroes after the one in the settlement check!

As long as the Princess doesn't testify, or any one from BYC, or the folks from the local TSC, or ......................

After a one? If its based on not being "right" there should be a 9 first!

I wouldn't have one of those flimsy homemade 2x4 ladders.

I used 2x6, there is a lot of Spook. And make note...fat guys
fall to the ground faster than skinny ones.

Actually an extension ladder as I was checking the roof on
the big garage. Lucky to get off as light as I did.

But if you can get me and Sour a goods settlement, it can
be a Werner step-ladder. You and I need to talk details before
we file suit.

Seriously, falling from a ladder can be very dangerous. Two more
locals fell from their ladders in the recent weeks. One before me,
one after me.

A lady was changing the motion lights on her garage, fell off the
step ladder. Broke both arms, thumb on right hand, right hip, right
lower leg and shattered her right heel. She's in bad shape. An older
woman, but busted up pretty hard.

Another man...our Mayor...had his step ladder out. Short roof, he just
walked over. Anyway, his wife came home, saw the ladder out and
put it away. Teddy never thought about that...he went to where his
ladder was supposed to be and just stepped off into mid air. When he
gets his cast off, he said he's gonna whop his wife. Women got no
business bothering a man's tools.

So ladder-climbing has become a hazard here. Apparently we aren't
very good at it.

But...at least we didn't fall off the wagon.

"Women got no business bothering a man's tools."

And therein lies the problem.

 

[theotherranch]

What? 1,000,000,000.00 doesn't work?

Hi Queen Em!

Howz you and the crew?

--On the bright side, I've lost 12 pounds in the last few weeks.--

On the other hand, my pants don't fit now. And I don't want my
wife buying any more of these "work-pants" either. That's what
caused the accident in the first place. WORK CLOTHES.

I need leisure suits to come back....or at least sport shirts.
And please, no one suggest jogging pants. Ain't happening.

So if the ladder suit fails, maybe us old guys can sue Dickys
for making work clothes in out size. There should be an age
limit on buying them things.


Spook, and that's the real skinny
