One of my parents neighbors up in New Hampshire used to be a literal lumberjack. Met him a few times. Really cool guy, kind of looks/sounds like a fat Sam Elliot. He worked in the late 70s 80s and 90s. He said lots of workplace injuries were getting limbs crushed. :stare: . Said he only saw one guy die, but heard of lots of others through the grapevine. And yeah. Those logging roads go on forever. It wouldn't surprise me if hospitals were 1.5hrs away or more.

Tower climbers in the wireless industry have a pretty high mortality rate as well. “The harness slows me down, I know what I’m doing...”

Yeah, but the fatality rate is way, way higher than construction trades.

Right after the iPhone first came out there was this huge push to start getting infrastructure for data up and running, and they just hired anyone willing to do it. As. Result there were tons of guys falling off towers and dying. Frontline did a documentary about it. These guys were also a shitload of drugs while working.

I would also still appreciate some danger.



I can't decide if I liked uniformed cop's empathy-free non-reaction or planting the flag to upstage the nativity more.

E: Or the implication that he was killed for using Merry Chrismas instead of the more terrorist-friendly Happy Holidays.

That is the correct response. I suspected it was coming, but something about the sound effect and just how miserably bored the extras behind him looked really made me crack up.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
