An Angle grinder's excellent for dismantling chicken-wire mesh panels
from a redundant aviary. Red hot staples flung around by an angle grinder take 0.6 seconds to reduce to body-temperature when they land on a bare forearm. It takes 0.6 seconds to say "B*stard". You can't wipe red-hot staples from a bare forearm whilst holding an angle grinder -- Keith |

Red hot staples flung around by an angle grinder take 0.6 seconds to reduce to body-temperature when they land on a bare forearm. Try to get them to land on a moist bit of your outer covering. Since you obviously don't wear appropriate clothing to work, then it's a safe bet that you don't wear your safety goggles either (let alone safety spectacles). In which case, try to protect your arm by getting the red-hot staples to hit you in the un-blinked eye. The natural water on the surface of the eyeball will decrease the cooling time and should also stimulate you to use (approximately) 0.4 second productively in widening the vocabulary of swearing in the English language (Russian is pretty good for swearing in too - you might wish to experiment with the other eye!) As a bonus, if the doctor in A & E thinks that you might be in the slightest bit redeemable, he might let you practice your self-control by carrying out the temporary repair work without either painkillers or anaesthesia. The discipline of holding your own eye-lids open and staring straight at the business end of a scalpel as the bits are levered out of their craters in your conjunctiva is really good for your self knowledge. And the week you spend with your eye under a bandage wondering if you'll ever see again on that side is also time well invested. (Worked for me anyway. Picking the splinters of broken hardened-steel hammerhead out of the front surface of your specs and thinking about the 3 hours of fast walk to the nearest tarmaced road is also well-spent time.) -- Aidan Aberdeen, Scotland Written at Mon, 23 Apr 2007 01:01 +0100, but posted later. |
