I think I'd prefer a cellmate who's been dead for 15 years, over one that's been dead for a few weeks. The stink should go away as the body decomposes and you can craft shanks from the bones.

Yeah I'm with ya. Save the ribcage for making a xylophone set to keep the mind occupied, that sort of thing. Use the skin for water skins. Wear his scalp as a funny wig!

ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.

etymologically the "xylo" in xylophone refers to the wooden bars. a xylobone might be a wooden model of a skeleton; what you propose would be an ostophone :spergin:

New York: A recent power outage that disrupted half of New York City’s subway system for several hours and stranded hundreds of passengers was likely caused by someone accidentally pressing an “Emergency Power Off” button, according to investigations released on Friday.

Outside investigators looking into the disruption on the night of August 29 said there was a “strong possibility” that the button was accidentally pressed since the plastic guard designed to prevent accidental activation was missing, according to a pair of reports released by New York Governor Kathy Hochul.

I was told to move some stuff around the jobsite the other day, and my co-worker rolls up in a wheel loader with two locks on the steering wheel saying "LOCKED OUT - DO NOT OPERATE".

Ends up that two mechanics lost their keys and couldn't remove their locks after completing a service. I ran the same loader today and they actually cut the steering wheel to remove their locks and then taped it back together with electrical tape.

So the plan is that if they lose their keys again they can just remove the tape and pull the locks off?

I love the thought process that is like cut the locks we don't have keys to anymore? No that's gonna raise too many questions. Cut the steering wheel to get the locks off? Now we're talking.

But they're making it out of a ribcage, so if they incorporate the xiphoid process, surely we could still call it a xylobone? Or at least compromise at xilobone?

There should be a term for drivers that encounter a situation where it is plain to see they shouldn't enter, but then they realize they have to do some stuff on the other side of the situation so they just calmly and deliberately drive into it.


Either they believe they have super human ennui and just plow through situations they should avoid, or they believe they have super human strength. Either way, vehicles make you stupid.

Oh god. Those locks are meant to be easily broken and suuuuuper hard to pick*, so there's proof if somebody removed them. If you can cut a steering wheel you can remove a LOTO lock even faster!

*: 6 pins instead of 5, special anti-pick pins, very little spring tension so you don't get feedback as you pick, a keyway that's hard to fit picks in...and a plastic body you can whack with a hammer to remove the lock if you lose they key.

All the lockout/tagout locks I have ever encountered are designed to be removed by hitting with a hammer. They will break apart easy, not designed to be high security. If I lose my keys, simply crack the lock open after jobs done and then report to stores for a replacement. The equipment is still locked out while the service/repair is being done, and as it is MY responsibility to remove the lock, destructive methods are allowed.

Now if someone else were to come along and remove my lock this way... hooo boy someones getting in a lot of trouble.

I don't know about down there in down under land, but up in Americastan, I seem to recall seeing things in either previous versions of this thread, or precursors to this thread, many years ago, while I was under a different name where people removing LOTO locks is pretty much just like "yeah bro, we figured that you were finished doing whatever you were doing" or "odds are you wouldn't get killed by (energized something) so we just cut that lock off because we needed to get moving again, don't worry about the electricity going through them bare wires, just like DON"T DO ANYTHING UNSAFE AND YOU"LL BE FINE".
