What? and miss out on the chance to visit the ER at 0400? (nothing good happens between 2 and 4 in the morning) why have a nighttime visit to take a piss be boring? Let's all throw caution to the winds and venture into a hallway from the bed or the grow room with the possibility of screaming dogs and cats and humans, now that's living on the edge..hahaha ok I'm stoned

Note To Self:

DO NOT GO INTO THE GROW ROOM WITH A GOD DAMN HOODIE THAT HAS DRAW STRINGS !!

I was in the grow room earlier to check on the fresh harvested bud and my cure cabinet humidity levels. I have a small 8" Tornado oscillating fan on my bench that blows over the canopy during normal operations.

I normally set the fan on a 5 gal. bucket setting on the floor, access my cabinets ( upper or lower ) and put it back when I am done, well......................

I did just that, ( please refer to bold red type) wearing a hoodie with draw strings that hang to about chest pocket level. I took one step ( I am in a closet after all) picked up the fan with 1 hand and reached for the cord to guide it off the bench to place the fan on the bucket, well................

The moment my goofy ass reached for the cord, I guess I brought the rear of the fan just a bit to close to my chest and it pulled the right side of the hoodie draw string into the back of the fan ( running on med. speed ) and that is where shit got squirrely,

Between trying to figure out what the fuck was making that God awful sound and who the hell was trying to push my damn head into the back of the fan, it dawned on me just exactly what the hell was going on,......so what do I do in this time of enlightenment, I drop the bloody fan...............Now we can add the smell and smoke from the beginning of an electrical device giving up the ghost to this lovely fiasco I am wallowing in..

With the fan now screaming and spinning uncontrollably on my chest while simultaneously trying to devour my face, it occurred to me that this was my opportunity to abandon my overwhelmingly one sided skirmish with the fan itself, and attack the mechanical beast's power supply. I reached as fast as I could with my left hand and ripped the beast's life line from its link to Satan, rendering it but a mere kitten within my nervous but sweaty masculine like clutches.

Yea, one of them things that just makes you wonder.......................WTF.COM

The moral of the story is,.......well...........stay away from rotating equipment whilst wearing a damn hoodie with draw strings.....duh :bigjoint:

Peace and Great Grows

Thats a very good lesson to share... seriously. While working in a factory a few years ago I watched a guy get to close to a rotating machine. It caught the edge of his clothes, and literally ripped the right off him in about 2 seconds flat. He went running to the locker room naked.

When I was in school, there was a pic of kid who was scalped by not having his hair tied back while working the drill press. Can still see it.

Dunlop rep at the track had 9 fingers, kept on about manually turning the wheel to lube the chain. Duh, right?

Nah, his assistant only has 9 fingers, after trying to rush a lube job before a race.

I almost lost a finger when I was measuring depth in a bulk tank, and the helix started rotating. Grabbed my tape and ran 18 feet of it in, before I got the fucker reversed. When it kicked and grabbed, I just threw the tape and ran for the hydraulic controls.
